Dakota Johnson and Machine Gun Kelly have ignited speculation about a potential romance after being seen together in New York City.
Johnson, 36, was observed exiting a vehicle outside Taylor Swift’s Tribeca apartment on Friday. Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, arrived approximately 30 minutes later and was reportedly escorted inside by Johnson’s security. The pair are said to have spent several hours at Swift's apartment before reportedly proceeding to a nearby hotel for the night.

Swift was reportedly out of town during the gathering. Sources suggest Johnson and Machine Gun Kelly may have first met at the recent wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
The reported meeting occurs about a month after Johnson was rumored to have ended her relationship with musician Tucker Pillsbury, known as Role Model. The couple had reportedly been dating for approximately eight months.
Johnson appeared on Pillsbury's recently released album, with a track featuring a dialogue between them. In the song "Love I You," Pillsbury tells Johnson, "Hey, I think you're perfect," to which she responds, "You say that to everyone."
Machine Gun Kelly was previously in a relationship with actress Megan Fox for four and a half years. The couple share a daughter, Saga, born in March of the previous year. Their relationship reportedly ended after claims that Fox discovered he had been communicating with other women. However, a source indicated late last year that Fox had been impressed by Kelly's involvement with their child, leading to speculation about a potential reconciliation.
