Machine Gun Kelly walked the American Music Awards red carpet with his 12-year-old daughter Casie last night, and the moment could not have been sweeter. Like, the matching outfits? The fact that MGK wore a ring that says “dad”? The cute little pinkie-finger-thumb-kiss moment?

FYI, this isn’t the only time Machine Gun Kelly’s brought Casie with him on the red carpet. Here they are being absolutely adorable at the 2019 Kids’ Choice Awards:

Machine Gun Kelly and his ex Emma Cannon tend to be pretty private when it comes to Casie, but back in 2018, MGK opened up about being a dad to Billboard.

“I’d say I did a lot of what I did with songs like ‘At My Best’ was because of the influence of my daughter,” he said. “People gotta understand that as wild as I am, I still have to go home at night and there still is someone that is sitting there like, ‘I'm 6 years old and I can’t handle you being as gnarly as you are.’ As a personality, it’s a lot to take in. I wanted to make her proud, and a lot of fans saw that as soft, and it’s like, no, it’s the most beautiful thing you could do. [My music] is my gift as a father to my daughter. Here’s something that you can listen to that still has my pain in it and still is teaching you something that I want you to know. I’m not that great of a speaker. I don’t like watching my own interviews. I think I suck at talking, but one thing I can do is move my pen, and if that’s how I gotta speak to my daughter, then let me do that.”

Crying, tbh.
