He added: “You spend time taking care of yourself and paying attention to a detail and then somebody else appreciates that detail. “When I went and got coffee, one of the first times when I actually had my nails done, I went to the counter and the guy was like, ‘Wow, your nails are so beautiful.’ It makes you want to be open to the conversation.” I’m like that - I’m super shy when it comes to starting conversations,” he said. I know that a lot of people don’t have the external courage to start conversations with people. “A lot of my music was for the introverts, for the people scared to be vulnerable. Kelly also explained that the polish might help fans gain confidence in day-to-day life. “I mean, I’m hoping aliens, at some point when they reveal themselves, are fully immersed in the UN/DN stuff.”

“I’m not expecting people to be nail artists, right? I want it to be accessible,” the musician told Allure, explaining that he wants the brand to be for everyone, regardless of how they identify. The range includes a black hue called ‘Depressionist’, paying homage to when MGK would colour his nails with Sharpies during middle school a red-orange shade, ‘25 to Life’, named by goth girlfriend Megan Fox and a dark green shade, ‘Mary Jane’, because MGK “ is weed”, we guess.Įach polish in the collection is crafted with a thick brush, so that the collection is accessible to all people, of all beauty capabilities. The beauty line, titled UN/DN LAQR, features ten classic shades of nail polish – chosen so that the colours can be worn regardless of the season. After years of flaunting intricate nail looks on the red carpet (see his iHeartRadio Music Awards acrylics from last May for evidence), Machine Gun Kelly has officially launched his own nail polish brand.
