Megan Fox received a surprise writing credit on Machine Gun Kelly’s latest album.
The 35-year-old singer dropped his seventh record, Lost Americana, on Friday, August 8. Following its release, eagle-eyed fans noticed Fox’s name in the credits of Kelly’s song “Orpheus.”
Us Weekly can confirm that Fox, 39, is named as a “composer” on the song.
“Just for this moment, can I hold you? / Feel your heartbeat ’til it fades,” the song’s lyrics read. “And in this moment, it’s me and you only / I will lovе you for all my days.”
Lyrics in the second verse seemingly allude to Kelly and Fox’s ups and downs over the years.
“Somewhere in a different realm, we’re still together / Somehow, I’ll find my way to you again,” Kelly sings. “Shipwrecked, but I hold hopes of buried treasure / I’ll cry ten thousand tears so I can swim / Came up for air, my world’s froze over.”
The verse continues with Kelly singing about being “lost” but having a soul that’s still attached to the person he’s singing about, presumably Fox.
Some fans have also connected the title of Kelly’s song to the poem “Prove it, Orpheus,” which was included in Fox’s 2023 book, Pretty Boys Are Poisonous.
“When they ask you who was your greatest love don’t whisper my name scream it,” the poem reads. “And when they ask you what is your biggest regret don’t write it in a song cut yourself open and write it in blood.”
Fox and Kelly started dating in 2020 after they both appeared in the movie Midnight in the Switchgrass. They announced their engagement in 2022, but by November 2024, the pair had split. That same month, Fox announced that she was pregnant with her and Kelly’s rainbow baby following a previous miscarriage. They welcomed a daughter named Saga in March. (Kelly is also the father of daughter Casie, 16, with ex Emma Canon. Fox shares kids Noah, 12, Bodhi, 11, and Journey, 8, with ex-husband Brian Austin Green.)
Late last month, photos obtained by TMZ showed Kelly and Fox traveling to Costa Rica with baby Saga, sparking reconciliation rumors once again.
“Things feel back to ‘normal’ between them, but they are not putting a label on their relationship,” a source exclusively told Us this week.
A second insider told Us that Kelly and Fox are “still being intimate” and “trying to work things out to reconcile” the relationship. “This trip is a big stepping stone in that direction,” the source added.
