In a shocking turn of events, the notorious ‘Tiger King’ star Joe Exotic has once again managed to grab the spotlight, this time from the confines of his prison cell. Despite serving a 21-year sentence for his involvement in a murder-for-hire and animal abuse case, Exotic seems determined to keep the drama alive by setting his sights on none other than the renowned rapper, Machine Gun Kelly (MGK).
Exotic’s Provocative Claims: Joe Exotic, born Joseph Maldonado-Passage, has never been one to shy away from controversy. Known for his flamboyant persona and outlandish behavior, Exotic recently stirred up the gossip mill with his audacious comments regarding MGK. In a bold move, Exotic took to social media to declare that he could “make MGK gay” with the help of “a tiger and a little bit of meth.”
Reaction to MGK’s New Tattoo: Exotic’s provocative statements came in response to MGK’s latest stunt – debuting a striking blackout tattoo that covers his chest and arms. The tattoo, featuring a thin unbolded cross extending from his neck to his lower abdomen, garnered significant attention on social media. Seizing the opportunity to grab headlines once again, Exotic couldn’t resist chiming in on the conversation.

Thirsty Tweets from Behind Bars: Despite being incarcerated, Exotic seems to have no shortage of time or audacity. Taking to his social media account from prison, Exotic shared photos of MGK’s tattoo and indulged in some shameless flirting. In one post, he boldly proclaimed, “Once you go Tiger King, you’ll forget about the Fox,” referencing MGK’s girlfriend, actress Megan Fox.
Legal Troubles and Redemption Efforts: Joe Exotic’s brazen antics come amidst his ongoing legal battles. Convicted in April 2019 on 17 federal charges of animal abuse and two counts of attempted murder-for-hire, Exotic was sentenced to 22 years behind bars. However, in January 2022, he was re-sentenced to 21 years following a judicial error in determining his sentencing guidelines. Despite his imprisonment, Exotic and his legal team are tirelessly fighting for his release, hoping for a pardon or a reduction in his sentence.
