MGK Busts Out Killer Jim Carrey Impression, Confirms Bob Dylan Narrated Album Trailer: ‘No Idea How He Even Knows Who I Am’

Nothing beats being a proud papa, and for MGK the thrill is extra special the second time around with his newborn daughter with ex Megan Fox, Saga Blade Fox-Baker, since he gets to share those precious years with one of his best pals. On The Tonight Show on Monday night (Aug. 4) the rapper/rocker told host Jimmy Fallon that he’s extra psyched that his good friend Pete Davidson is expecting his first child.

“Have you guys discussed?,” Fallon asked about whether the two have been talking about fatherhood. “All the time, yeah,” MGK said. “He has this vision with my newborn — her name’s Saga — that he wants… he hopes that she plays sports so he can come to the game. And if she wins, he looks at the opposite team and goes, ‘The Saga continues.’”

As cute as that scenario sounds, MGK said he doubts their significant others — Davidson is expecting a child with model girlfriend Elsie Hewitt — will just set them loose on stroller dates unsupervised. “I think that they would be in their heads thinking that we would be looking at the baby and go, ‘Okay, what do we do? We’re not ready for this,” said the rapper-turned-rocker who has a 15-year-old daughter from a previous relationship. “The diapers end up on our heads or something.”

The “Cliché” star also confirmed that Bob Dylan provided the voice-over narration for the Lost Americana album trailer. “Are you friends with Bob Dylan” Fallon asked. “Well, to be honest, I don’t want to mess my friendship up,” MGK responded in his best nasally Dylan impression as he and Fallon traded off aping the rock bard’s signature pinched delivery.

“To be honest, I have no idea how he even knows who I am to this day,” MGK admitted. “And I’m pretty sure that if I say the wrong thing I’ll mess it all up, so I’ll just shut up and accept whatever Bob Dylan throws my way.” To be fair, even Kelly doesn’t seem to know how the totally unexpected collab came about.

“Something’s going on in the stars where, like, good things keep happening… I don’t know how it keeps happening,” he said. He added that the Dylan team-up came at a time when he was really questioning whether the music he was making was the right thing for him. “Then Bob Dylan, who’s the king of just getting all the outside noise out and trusting what’s within stamps… I don’t know, I feel like he’s just in on some giant cosmic joke,” MGK said.

After running through some of MGK’s recent oddball tweets, including one in which he stated, “growing up, Jim Carrey was dad. there’s no other explanation for my rubbery face,” the singer showed off his spot-on Carrey impression. Twisting his mouth into a tortured rictus, he pulled off a super credible How the Grinch Stole Christmas look before asking Fallon for an assist with an Ace Ventura bit. Shaking his head and doing the signature “all rightyyyyy then” and Carrey cackle, MGK expertly rattled off the actor’s insane rant from the film to the host’s delight. He also later fitted Fallon with a pair of his signature vampire fangs. “I kinda like ’em,” Fallon said.

MGK was back later in the episode to perform a medley of songs from his upcoming Lost Americana album, which is due out on Friday (Aug. 8). The set opened with Kelly standing behind a blue picket fence rocking the same red and white leather jacket he sports on the album cover as a Who-like keyboard fanfare and big rock guitars led him into the power chord-drenched “Outlaw Overture.”

“I miss my drugs/ They’ve been my friend since 21,” he sang urgently as he tossed the jacket aside and strapped on an electric guitar to furiously strum it out before taking a seat to croon the intro to one of the album’s lead singles, “Vampire Diaries.” Hopping back up with his guitar, Kelly tore into the energetic pop rocker’s chorus, “Take, take, take me out/ I know how it’s gonna end/ But it’s too late to turn around.”
