Machine Gun Kelly Shares Why Birth of His Baby with Megan Fox Will Be 'Bittersweet' as He Remembers Late Friend Dingo

Machine Gun Kelly is paying tribute to professional snowboarder Luke “the Dingo” Trembath.

The musician, 34, remembered the late athlete — who died at age 38 on Feb. 28 — with a post on Instagram on Friday, March 7.

"Crazy … I didn’t even cry this hard when my dad died. 💔😞🕊️," Kelly began the caption of his post. “I’ve lost a lot of friends, but I’ve never lost a brother. We’ll never get another Dingo on this planet."

“A true rockstar without ever needing to make a song, the most loyal, loud, charismatic, funny, and annoying human i’ve ever had the honor of knowing," he continued.

Kelly then wrote that telling his 15-year-old daughter Cassie that Trembath was gone “was one of my hardest phone calls, because she loved you so much." He added that he believes his friend is “up there” with his "new baby" with Megan Fox, who is due later this year — “dressed up in a hilarious costume making them laugh, getting ready to send them down. I couldn’t ask for a more bittersweet birth blessing.”

Monster Energy, which produced Trembath's UNLEASHED podcast, previously announced his death on X and Instagram.

Trembath began snowboarding competitively at the age of 9, and he first made a name for himself at 13 years old when he became a nationally recognized snowboarder in Australia, per Authority Magazine.

His family relocated to the U.S. when he was 14 years old so he could train with the U.S. team, and he later became a professional snowboarder at 17 years old.

In 2018, Trembath cofounded the learning platform Find Your Grind, which strives to "provide every student with the tools and confidence to be Future Ready in this ever-changing modern world," per the organization's website.

"After being a successful athlete I wanted to show others how they can discover what they are most interested in and connect to the different pathways that can help lead them there through real career profile," he previously told Authority of the company in 2020.

A number of other celebrities and athletes have also posted tributes to Trembath following the news of his death, including skateboarding icon Tony Hawk.

“Words cannot describe the joy this guy brought to every gathering. His laughter was magically contagious, and he revered our culture because he was shaped by it,” he wrote in a March 1 Instagram post. “Thank you Dingo for being The Great Connector in our fragmented world. We were lucky to have you. The void you leave behind cannot be filled. 💔.”
