She's brilliant! That ability to articulate feelings and perspective is awesome. And seeing her arrive in this centered grounded place after such an incredible life in the public eye fills my heart. Im inspired by the wisdom that she has learned from it all and the love she radiates.

[@leekohler2]

He sure did. I'm not a fan of his music, but I did watch his whole set at Lolloapalooza this year because of this interview. I have tried to listen to his records before and did not really care for them- overproduced, autotuned and missed the mark of what I thought he was capable of. But live it all made sense. Seeing him live, he was flawed technically, but that is what made it good. I found I liked songs I hated before. He should make several live records. I think he would gain a larger audience. He definitely has a voice, and it does not need to be autotuned. "Don't let yourself get in the way of the things that people love about you." MGK. Take your own advice, MGK. You don't need the overproduction. Just be you.

[@dancingram79]

Oh yeah, I didnt even know who he was. Im not american and dont listen much to music anymore. But hes, human. ❤

If this exact interview was interviewed by anyone else other then Drew Barrymore I do not feel it would have come out as genuine and beautiful.

Honestly, nothing is more refreshing than when people stop pretending and start admitting that they don't know what they're doing either. We all have trauma we're trying to overcome and work through and this time, space, and energy of just having people who will support you and listen and talk to you while you work through it means so much. So thank you for this. It means a lot. So much more than you and Machine Gun Kelly will probably ever know.

I didn't know him before except that he was Megan's quirky boyfriend. But, after seeing this interview a few days ago, the convo felt so genuine, I felt like that I knew the real him. He seemed humble, honest, a good and loving dad & boyfriend. Also, props to Drew who could make him so comfortable being on that stage despite him having an odd day. It didn't feel like an interview, but a convo between 2 closed friends. Bless to you both!

Yes! That's a great idea. That's what really helped me when I was feeling so low, to know that I wasn't alone, that there were other people, (and it turned out to be millions) that were feeling exactly the same thing as me and also were hiding it to protect themselves, thinking they would be safe is they didn't speak their truth. I love honesty now, from myself and from others, but I try to respect myself if I don't feel safe to show that truth. I hope you're son feels better.

I wonder if Colson knows about drew Barrymores past, I listened to her audio book long time ago and she is the furthest thing from a picture perfect celebrity. She has gone through hardships in her life and is so real and honest about her life. This was perfect match for an interview. She is so understanding with him because she has gone through this crazy world of fame. I hope they talked after the show and he got to hear more about her life story , I think he’d be surprised that he could relate a lot to her! She’s not just this Charlie’s angels , 50 first dates movie star! She’s so much more🤍 absolutely incredible interview.

That was really beautiful. I'm glad that he communicated that he was having a weird day.

[@kellymaypenrose6413]

I remember when MGK’s CDs were finally being sold and my mom took me to buy every single one every time they were released. My mom is a sweet southern lady and was never into rap but she would listen to him with me and say “I like his messages in his music, he’s going to go far and influence and help people” he has done that and gone above and beyond. I showed her lonely and she was in tears part way through.
