The rapper's daughter is all grown up, and her latest red carpet appearance at a major kids' event has stirred mixed reactions online.

Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) and his daughter, Casie Baker, lit up the orange carpet at the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards in Santa Monica on June 21, drawing plenty of attention for their coordinated style and undeniable father-daughter connection.

The "Home" singer, 35, showcased his signature edge in a textured black shirt that revealed his tattoos, accented with bold accessories. Casie, 15, stood poised beside him in a lavender asymmetrical dress featuring a flowing side drape paired with silver crystal-studded heels, loose waves, and natural makeup.

Online reactions were mixed. One observer wrote, "The daughter looks mid 20, her and North dressed too old for their age. Why not dressing more appropriately... [sic]."

A second added, "I didn't say that she doesn't look pretty. She just looks like she dressed like an adult woman and not a child." A third remarked, "That's weird." Another critic stated, "She looks more mature than him."

Others came to Casie's defense, urging kindness over criticism."Are you all ok? People commenting on her dress and age. Say something nice. She has a dad who looks great, she looks beautiful and is with her dad at a fun event," a different commenter said.

Supportive reactions also trickled in, with one netizen saying, "Good for him." Another remarked, "Omg she's gotten so big! She's drop dead gorgeous [sic]!" One admirer gushed, "They are both so cute, casey is a beauty like her dad 😍😍❤️." Someone else declared, "She's so pretty!"
