The NFL has officially tapped Machine Gun Kelly for a halftime performance and this news is quite hilarious for many people.
In years past, the league has been known to be very hypocritical. They have fined players for certain celebrations but still promote those celebrations online to make them go even more viral.
Machine Gun Kelly will be the headline act for the NFL’s final international game this season.
He first burst onto the music scene with his energetic style and has since earned multiple Grammy nominations, establishing a dedicated fan base.
Him being chosen by the league is quite funny since it was just reported days ago that the league was very concerned that players were doing gun-related celebrations in 2024.
As we know, shootings in this country are beyond concerning. However, the NFL wanting to take a stand against it while booking a guy named Machine Gun Kelly to perform is quite hypocritical.

Allianz Arena in Munich will be the host for this season’s clash between the New York Giants and Carolina Panthers on Nov. 10th.
It is not exactly a battle of juggernauts, as both teams are a combined 3-11.
What Will Machine Gun Kelly Perform At Halftime?
Machine Gun Kelly will perform during halftime of the NFL’s 2024 game in Munich, Germany, between the New York Giants and Carolina Panthers, which will take place next month.
“I’m really looking forward to performing in Germany for the upcoming NFL game in Munich,” the “Bloody Valentine” rocker says. “The energy that the German fans bring is unmatched!”
So, what songs will he be performing?
Per Variety’s Jem Aswad, Machine Gun Kelly will perform “Lonely Road,” his collaboration with Jelly Roll that samples John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”
