Earlier this week, My Chemical Romance debuted a cryptic teaser that got a lot of fans talking. The visual of a white rose catching fire with “Give ‘Em Hell Kid” playing in the background sparked a lot of theories about what MCR could be teasing.
Not so coincidentally, HipDot shared the exact same teaser a day prior, adding fuel to the rumor fire that a makeup collab was in the works.

Naturally, fans are comparing this situation to when tickets went on sale for My Chemical Romance's return show. It only took about three or four minutes for all of the show's tickets to sell out. This, of course, led to a lot of frustration and defeat amongst MCR's fanbase.
