Machine Gun Kelly proved his love for and trust in his daughter Casie at a show in France this weekend when he let her have free reign over his arm that is covered in ink. In a photo the rapper posted on Instagram, the 13-year-old is seen with a tattoo machine in hand, working on his right forearm. Kelly has yet to share his teen’s creation, but he was taking a photo on his phone that we hope to see soon.
“My daughter said summer vacation, we ended up at hellfest,” he captioned the carousel which also included a sweet snapshot of Casie holding her dad’s hand as he slept in the back of a car, his head resting on a blanket that’s propped up next to her.
They also attended a Dolce & Gabanna show for Milan Fashion Week, and we are officially obsessed with this father-daughter duo. It’s clear Kelly is loving being a girl dad and knows how to do it right.
While we don’t know of any other celebrities who have given their kids a tattoo machine and said, “Have at it,” lots of them have gotten meaningful ink in honor of their kids. It’s such a touching display of love that we never get tired of seeing.
LeBron James
NBA player LeBron James has tattoos for all three of his kids on his body. There is a portrait of LeBron James Jr. (b. 2004) on his left arm, his son Bryce Maximus’ (b. 2007) on his right arm. He also has a portrait of his daughter Zhuri (b. 2014) on the left side of his back and the word “family” in script running vertically down his right side. He and his wife Savannah James also have “BBZ” on their hands.
Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner has her daughter’s name tattooed on her tricep in all caps and “4:43” on her forearm in honor of Stormi’s birth time.
Madonna
Madonna’s first-ever tattoo was the initials of all her children — Lourdes, Rocco, David, Mercy, Stelle, and Estere — “L R D M S E.”
Proud Papa
Kelly — who became a dad at 20 years old — has always stood up for Casie, and she has done the same for him. In a 2021 interview on The Drew Barrymore Show, he talked about the time he got a call from Casie’s school saying she “got into a thing” with a boy.
“I was like, ‘What happened?’ And they were like, ‘The boy was talking bad about you,” he explained. “I was like, ‘Good job, don’t ever do that again, but I love you so much.’”
He also told host Drew Barrymore that he hopes his daughter never loses her excitement for life and shared a story of a recent outing. “I was just walking behind my daughter in the airport the other day and she just has this walk, it’s this pure bounce, she’s so excited for life like she’s so young in her life… I just pray to every God that exists that she just keeps that bounce forever and that no one interferes with that.”
