Fresh off of admitting to basically being a vampire, rapper/pop punk-ish musician Machine Gun Kelly has been announced as the musical headliner for the upcoming NHL All-Star Game in Las Vegas.

At least it’s not Kid Rock again.

MGK will have to follow up the expletive-laden performance given by Billie Joe Armstrong and Green Day at the 2020 game. He’ll get his chance during the second intermission of the game on February 5.

The platinum-selling recording artist, who got engaged to actress Megan Fox this month, plans to drop his sixth album, “Born with Horns,” later this year.
