The All-American Rejects singer Tyson Ritter is reflecting on an alleged unsettling altercation withMachine Gun Kellythat happened while he was filming a movie with MGK’s fiancéeMegan Fox.
Ritter, 39, appeared as a guest on theTuna on ToastpodcastTuesday, and claimed that MGK, 33, once “went ballistic” on him after he suggested a subtle script change involving Fox’s character.
Ritter said he was filming the “kind of… bad"crime dramaJohnny & Clydewith Fox, 37, in Providence, Rhode Island at the same time he was shooting the dramaPrisoner’s Daughter.

“We’‘e on set and I go over to Megan’s trailer because in the film, there was this scene that she basically teases me, putting my fingers in her mouth,” he said. “So I walked over to her and wanted to discuss this moment where a monster rips out her f—ing heart. That’s her death scene.”
“I go over there and I was like, ‘Hey Megan, I wanted to talk to you about this moment where, when you die, because you’ve been teasing putting my fingers in your mouth, that when you’re dead, I put my fingers in your mouth, and it’s sort of like this resolution to my character getting his revenge,'” he recalled.
According to Ritter, MGK did not like his suggestion and quickly became irate — which Ritter later drew from for his role inPrisoner’s Daughter. Reps for Fox and MGK (real name Colson Baker) did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

“He was super bummed about me asking if I could put my fingers in Megan Fox’s mouth… He just went ballistic,” he claimed. “It kind of went maniac mode and I was like… It’s funny, man, I just kind of held the space for it and I was like, ‘This is what I’ve been looking for with my character onPrisoner’s Daughter.'”
He continued: “I was like, ‘I remember when Pistol Pete just started going ape on me, I was like, this is really confrontational, but also like, thank you dude. He might’ve been having a bad day, but I’ll never forget, a lot of my role, in that one moment especially, it’s not only my dad being his drunkest, wildest self, it was a little bit of Pistol Pete in my role forPrisoner’s Daughter.”
Ritter went on to praise Fox as a “sweetheart to work with,” and acknowledged that the alleged blow-up was “just a really singular moment.”
