Machine Gun Kelly became well known in Ireland following his run in with Conor McGregor last September at the MTV VMAs, after which the MMA fighter called the musician a "little vanilla rapper boy".

TMZ reported at the time that the collision came about after the fighter asked the musician for a photo but was shunned.
