Machine Gun Kelly refrained from talking negatively about Taylor Swift in Wednesday’s “Hot Ones Versus” episode over fear of her diehard fans.
The rapper, 34, told his frequent collaborator Trippie Redd that he had “to be out of [his] motherf–king mind” to think he “want[ed] any smoke with that fan base” by “saying three mean things” about the pop star.

Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, added that he refused to “burn that bridge.”

Kelly commented, “preach” on a video of the interview earlier this month.
