Ian Somerhalder Comments on MGK’s 'Vampire Diaries' Track

Machine Gun Kelly A new song titled "Vampire Diaries" may have been released, but not all people are enthusiastic about it, particularly the actor from "The Vampire Diaries," Ian Somerhalder.

During the weekend, MGK unveiled an unexpected track paired with a dark music video featuring gothic imagery, heartfelt verses, and, naturally, vampire elements.

Supporters of the "Vampire Diaries" series quickly likened Machine Gun Kelly's latest song to the popular supernatural show and filled the comments section with allusions to the widely watched television program.

Supporters of the popular series responded by sharing their opinions on whether MGK's latest music video leans more toward Damon or Stefan.

A music video featuring more Damon (since Stefan disliked dancing), with lyrics reflecting Stefan (as he loathed being a vampire)," one fan noted. "I adore the series; I watch it every fall.

It might have been Damon after he started dating Elena; she attempted to calm him down, haha," another person remarked, then disagreed with the earlier user's comment about Stefan. "Dancing seems more like Stefan, haha. I'm an original 'Vampire Diaries' fan since it first came out, so I'm thrilled! I'm mostly Team Damon, but I do like both of them.

" He's surely Damon Salvatore," another one said.

It's an auditory journey through lost locations, honoring the drive for renewal and searching for the true heart of American liberty," the narrator states as scenes show MGK driving motorcycles, exploring the Las Vegas Strip, and gazing at wide-ranging mountain landscapes. "From the shine of neon restaurants to the sound of motorcycle engines, this music honors the attractiveness discovered in transitional areas, where history is reshaped and tomorrow is created according to your own vision.

MGK Preparing for an Exciting Year Ahead

With Machine Gun Kelly consistently releasing fresh music and challenging musical genres, he'll also go back to his origins in Cleveland for his yearly three-day event known as MGK Day, taking place between August 8 and 10.

MGK Day offers numerous community-oriented activities aimed at giving back and uniting individuals. Participants will find lively street festivals featuring entertainment, cuisine, and regional merchants, along with donation campaigns aiding groups such as the Cleveland Metropolitan School District and the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. Local initiatives range from skateboard and BMX demonstrations to baseball matches and quiz evenings, promoting involvement outside of musical performances.

Although it isn't focused on a structured performance, the event frequently features music, unexpected acts, and visits from artists. MGK has also left an impression through his participation in tossing the ceremonial first pitch at Cleveland Guardians' baseball matches, which serves as a meaningful acknowledgment of his strong connection to the city he considers his hometown.

The local celebration will take place alongside the launch of his new album and is expected to feature many unexpected elements.
