Megan Fox Miscarriage Details Surface In New Poetry Book, She & Machine Gun Kelly Had “Difficult” Time

by

2023 was almost the year we saw Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox call it quits for good after a particularly tumultuous Super Bowl weekend. At the time, rumours of infidelity circled the engaged pair, though the Transformers actress has denied any cheating happening on either of their parts. This left fans to wonder what could be sparking so much tension between MGK and his lover. Now that Fox has finally unleashed her vulnerable new poetry book, we know that it may have something to do with the miscarriage she suffered 10 weeks into her pregnancy.

In an excerpt shared by PEOPLE, the mother of three spoke about an ultrasound of a baby girl just one day past the double-digit milestone. “I want to hold your hand / hear your laugh, but now / I have to say / goodbye,” Fox spilled her emotions out onto paper. “I close my eyes and imagine holding you tight against my chest as they rip you from my insides.” On Tuesday (November 7), she appeared on Good Morning America to discuss her vulnerable work, which admittedly was a struggle for both her and Colson Baker to navigate through.

Megan Fox Appears on Good Morning America

“It was very difficult for both of us,” the 37-year-old recalled of her miscarriage this morning. “And it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately, and together and apart, and together and apart, and together and apart, trying to navigate, “What does this mean? Why did this happen?’” As DailyMail notes, Kelly previously hinted that he and Fox had lost a child during his 2022 Billboard Music Awards performance, which he dedicated to her and their unborn baby.

Megan Fox isn’t the only one who’s had all eyes on her in the media over the past few days. Before her poetry book’s big debut, the starlet’s fiance Machine Gun Kelly went viral for giving an awkward interview at the F1 races taking place last weekend.

Drake Responds To Poetry Book Criticism While Paying Tribute To Canada’s Sex Educator Sue Johanson

by

The deeper into his career he gets, the less bothered Drake has become by the criticism of others. His Honestly, Nevermind album – which recently celebrated its first anniversary – left the music industry divided. Since then, we’ve primarily seen him focus on rapping, though he did also give us a taste of his skills as a poet too. After announcing his plans to release a book in 2022, the Canadian finally shared Titles Ruin Everything earlier this month, which he put together in tandem with Kenza Samir. While some hip-hop heads are loving the collectable piece, Complex reports that award-winning poets are less than pleased with what Drake has done.

“Some of these are so absurd that they’re actually funny,” New York Times best-selling author Hanif Abdurraqib said of the 168-page effort. “But it’s hard to tell if he also understands that they’re bending into absurdist humour, and understands that there will be people who find it profound. Or if he’s convinced himself of the profundity. Really, it’s kind of just a book of puns. Silly lil’ jokes.” Abdurraqib added that he’s having a hard time deciphering how “in on the joke” Drake is, though he wasn’t “personally offended” by any of the content in the book.”

Upon hearing the public’s reaction to his work, the father of one turned to Instagram to share his thoughts. “Randomly angry poets: blahagaggagesvachjsksyavsvvehevehebwgabvqvqqvwww[.] Me:,” Drake wrote above a shrugging photo of the late Sue Johanson, who tragically passed away earlier this week. As HipHopDX notes, the Canadian icon previously appeared on several episodes of Degrassi, where Drizzy first got his start.

As reactions to Titles Ruin Everything continue to pour in, the 36-year-old has been focusing on his future too much to worry about the perception of others. In just a few days, he’ll be back on tour for the first time in several years, and along with his book Champagne Papi confirmed that he’s got another album on the way in the near future.

Even this deep into his career, Toronto native Drake always finds new ways to surprise his fans.

To share that news, Drizzy took out ads in papers like the New York Times and the Toronto Star, and it wasn’t long before fans noticed a QR code on them. As Complex notes, scanning will take you to titlesruineverything.com, where the Scorpion rapper confirmed that along with his book will come a new album called For All The Dogs.

Drake Confirms Another Album Ahead of It’s All A Blur Tour

“I made an album to go with the book,” Drake wrote on the webpage confirming his future plans. “They say they miss the old Drake, girl don’t tempt me,” he added, referencing his often-quoted lyrics from Take Care‘s “Headlines.” It’s worth noting that when the multi-talent first shared his desire to release a book of poems last summer, he told Table for One listeners that he was also planning to drop Scary Hours 3.

“I got another Scary Hours pack coming too, in a little bit. Maybe not right now; I need you to just take this in right now,” he declared following the debut of his Honestly, Nevermind album. “But I’m gonna slap some head tops off with the Scary Hours pack. I love this s**t.” Are you looking forward to Drake’s For All The Dogs album?

Drake Announces New Poetry Book, “Titles Ruin Everything”

Last year, Drake pleasantly surprised his fans with the unexpected release of a new project titled Honestly, Nevermind. Prior to that, he had debuted the first episode of his radio show, “Table For One.” During the show, the 35-year-old artist hinted at upcoming projects, not all of which are music-related. On the radio show, Drake revealed that he and Kenza Samir were set to release a poetry book later that year. He expressed excitement about the book and encouraged his listeners to look forward to it. An exact release date was not disclosed at the time. However, the announcement generated anticipation for the book’s arrival.

In the past year, Drake has remained extremely busy. He has released projects like Honestly, Nevermind and Her Loss. He also dropped a single titled “Search & Rescue.” However, despite these releases, some fans are eagerly anticipating a new album or at least another single from the Canadian superstar. Unfortunately, it seems that fans may have to wait a bit longer for that. Nevertheless, fans have a little something to look forward to in the meantime. Drake is finally dropping his poetry book.

Drake, AKA Aubrey Graham, The Poet

After a year of anticipation, the book titled Titles Ruin Everything is set to hit the shelves. Drake recently took to Instagram to share the news, expressing his excitement about the book’s release. He mentioned that the book will be available starting tomorrow on Drake Related, as well as select retailers. In his post, Drake conveyed his genuine enthusiasm, stating that he has never been more eager for people to buy or support something in his life. He referred to Titles Ruin Everything as their first book. This indicates the significance of this creative endeavor for both him and Kenza Samir.

Fans took to the comments to let their thoughts be known on the project. Many expressed excitement. “Do I like to read? Yes. Do I have any idea what this is? Nope. Will I read it? Yes!” said one fan. Another agreed, saying that they’ve been waiting for Drake to release a coffee table book of his Instagram captions. “There’s Shakespeare, then there’s Aubrey,” said another user. What do you think of Drake releasing a book of poetry? Will you read it? Let us know in the comments!
