Machine Gun Kelly (born Colson Baker) is the latest singer to get the documentary treatment.
Following the likes of Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo, the musician and actor’s rise to stardom has been examined in the new Hulu film, titled Machine Gun Kelly’s Life in Pink.
The documentary provides all the expected rock ‘n’ roll antics and snippets of Machine Gun Kelly’s fiancée Megan Fox, but also offers a deep dive into the star’s status as a polarising figure, public backlash and his struggles with his mental health.
Given that Hulu is a US-based streaming platform, fans in the UK may be wondering how to watch the new documentary. RadioTimes.com brings you everything you need to know.
