Machine Gun Kelly put on a wild performance inside of the Microsoft Store at Atlanta's Lenox Mall on September 28th. He went so hard for his fans inside of the store that Microsoft employees were forced to pull the plug on him and shut down the performance. MGK was asked multiple times by Microsoft staff to get down from the tables he was jumping around on which were holding expensive laptops, but each time they asked him to get down, he gave them the middle finger and kept rocking the mic.
He's since issued the following statement to XXL addressing the situation, and clarifies that he has no issues with Microsoft and that he meant no disrespect by performing the way he did.
"Last Friday, I was asked to perform at The Source's Power 30 reception and honored to do so. My only goal was to give a great performance. Contrary to what is being reported by the media, I did not stomp on any computers, damage any store property nor were the police called on my behalf. There was some confusion as to where I should perform. But, in the end, it was all resolved. I'd like to thank The Source for the opportunity and let the people at Microsoft know I meant no disrespect."
Microsoft replied with a statement of their own which they sent to CNBC.
"On Sept. 28, The Source held a private event at the Microsoft Lenox Square Store. We offer our stores as a venue for the community to use, and this event was not sponsored by Microsoft. While the artist's behavior was appropriate for a concert, some of it was not appropriate in a store environment."
