Travis Barker Shares Why Kourtney Kardashian Is Perfect For Him: 'We're Very Similar'
Travis Barker certainly knows he has found his perfect life partner in Kourtney Kardashian.
"We're very similar, with our backs to the wall," the Blink-182 drummer said in a new interview with Billboard. "We have no quit, and I need someone like that in my life."
Barker, who has been married twice before, says it was Kardashian who helped him overcome the fear of flying (aerophobia) and convinced him to fly to Cabo, Mexico, last August. The musician avoided flying for 13 years after surviving a plane crash in 2008, which took the lives of four people. Barker suffered third-degree burns in the accident.
He thanked Kardashian for changing his perspective about flying and uploaded a photo of them embracing in front of the plane last August. "With you anything is possible," he wrote at the time. His post received over 1.5 million likes.
As if taking their relationship to the next level, the pair had a fake wedding in Las Vegas after the Grammy Awards on Sunday. Kardashian uploaded a series of photos of her Vegas wedding led by an Elvis Presley impersonator.
"Found these in my camera roll," she captioned the photos of her "fake wedding." "Once upon a time in a land far, far away (Las Vegas) at 2am, after an epic night and a little tequila, a queen and her handsome king ventured out to the only open chapel with an Elvis and got married (with no license). Practice makes perfect."
The marriage was not legal, though, because they did not get a marriage license.
In another interview with Billboard, the 46-year-old rock musician said he never wanted to stop playing music even after the traumatic plane accident.
"I would've been forced to be done because I didn't like to travel or I couldn't fly or leaving the house didn't feel good at the time, but never inside was I thinking, 'I hate playing the drums' or 'I hate making music' or 'I hate touring,'" he shared. "It was more like, 'F--k, how am I going to do this now?' I remember talking to my therapist and he was like, 'When is enough enough? You've done everything. You've played the Grammys,' lists off the people I've collaborated with. And I'm like, 'Yeah, I'm not done yet.'"
