The album debuted atop the US Billboard 200 chart while moving 93,000 album equivalent units. It is also up for Best Rock Album at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards.
Kelly’s fiancée, Megan Fox, was not present at the event. The two were last seen together at the GQ Man of the Year party, last week. They attended alongside Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker.
In addition to music, Kelly has also released the film, Life in Pink, this year, as well as starred in Taurus.
