“Kells called Jay one night and was like ‘hey, we want to do this, like you know is Bunnie down to do this?’ and I’m like star in a music video with Megan Fox, MGK and my husband, uh yeah, I would love that on the resume, but it was so fun,” she revealed of how the music video come to fruition.
She then went on to give some insight on what Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox are like in real life. “You know what, they are just the sweetest,” Bunnie XO said of MGK and Fox before further elaborating on the award-winning rapper and actress.
“Megan, when you talk to her, she makes you feel like you’re the only person in the room. She’s so smart, and she’s so witty and you just kind of want to hear what she has to say because it’s just fascinating, you know? Kells is just the sweetest boy. He is just a sweetheart, I tell everybody that all the time,” she continued. “They’re really just like family, and you know we’re just so thankful to be a part of their lives and have them be a part of ours,” Bunnie XO added.
Speaking Out On Choice To Highlight Her Infertility In “Lonely Road” Music Video
In the music video for “Lonely Road,” Bunnie XO and Jelly Roll highlight their infertility journey. During the interview with DiLaura, Bunnie discussed why it’s important to her to showcase that journey.
“I think there are a lot of women who struggle with infertility and for some reason we’re shamed, and we’re not supposed to talk about it. And It kind of like gives you a scarlet letter, like ‘oh she can’t have babies,’ and I don’t think that’s right,” Bunnie XO explained.
She added, “I think that we’re just all women who just want a little piece of us running around in the world and for the longest time I didn’t think I wanted to have babies, but then settling down with my husband and being with him for eight years, I’m just like you know what I would love a little you. And he’s the best father. I think speaking up about infertility is something that needs to be spoken about me, and I think that women who are going through that journey and that situation in their life need to be heard also.”
In real life, the couple are struggling with infertility and currently undergoing IVF treatments, and they are “so excited” about the possibility of having children together.
Bunnie XO Talks Jelly Roll Developing A Friendship With MGK
The 44-year-old model and social media sensation also shared how Jelly Roll and Machine Gun Kelly developed a friendship, coming into each other’s lives at just the right time when they both needed a genuine friend.
“The friendship between my husband and him is the cutest thing ever,” she began, before detailing, “Everybody calls them the Jay and Silent Bob of this generation, and I can’t unsee it. I think they both needed each other. Kells kind of breathe life back into my husband and my husband kind of… It’s like a big brother/little brother relationship… they’ve just both needed each other and their worlds collided at the exact time that it was needed.”
Machine Gun Kelly And Jelly Roll’s Friendship Started With Beef
However, It hasn’t always been a perfect friendship for Jelly Roll and Machine Gun Kelly, as it actual began with some beef. Machine Gun Kelly recently opened up about he and Jelly Roll’s friendship while chatting with Bunnie XO on The Dumb Blonde Podcast.
“We started out hating each other… For the new Jelly fans, I knew him as a rapper, and for the new MGK fans, I am a rapper. I forgot how it what started it,” MGK said on the podcast, before Bunnie XO chimed in, commenting that she believes the arguments started when Jelly Roll’s good friend Yelawolf had a falling out with MGK.
“Yeah, me and Yela didn’t rock with each other, and Jelly’s very loyal. It kind of got to a point where there was a lot of street sh*t and gang sh*t behind it on both ends…” MGK continued. “There was always respect I’m sure you know because at the end of the day we were all putting out hot sh*t and handful f**ked up, tatted up white boys is slim to none. You’re all just waiting for each other to be like ‘yo, I f**k with you’ and once that happens you respect each other…”
Jelly Roll and MGK have since settled their beef and have become close friends. The pair released “Lonely Road” in late July of 2024 with a music video to accompany the track and have since performed the tune live several times.
