Travis BarkerandKourtney Kardashianare two peas in a pod.
TheBlink-182drummer, 46, explained how he andThe Kardashiansstar, 42, are alike in a new interview withBillboard, published just days after the two celebrated their love with aLas Vegas wedding.
“We’re very similar, with our backs to the wall,” Barker said. “We have no quit, and I need someone like that in my life.”
Though the two did not have a marriage license, Kardashian said thecouple was fully ready to officially say “I do.”

“It’s not called ‘fake married’!” she said onJimmy Kimmel LiveWednesday. “There was no possibility to get a marriage license at that hour… We asked five times. ‘What do we have to do to make this happen?’ It was 2 a.m. and they were like, ‘It opens at 8 o’clock.'”
After Kimmel tried to confirm that she wanted to get married “for real,” but couldn’t, the Poosh founder responded, “We just did it anyway. It’s what’s in the heart.”
Barker, meanwhile, toldBillboardthat after more than 20 years in the music industry, he’s finally learning how to let loose, and take time off of work to focus on what matters most, including his family.
The rocker — who is dad to son Landon, 18, daughter Alabama, 16, and former stepdaughter Atiana, 23 — launched his own label, DTA Records, in 2019.
“I was [once] a trash man there playing in a punk-rock band called Feeble, so to go back [to Laguna Beach] in 2022 with my fiancée and just have a day laying on the beach… I can’t say how amazing it is,” he said. “I feel like I’m learning how to structure my time, trying to work enough to where I feel comfortable and feel like I earn days off and vacations, which I never took until this past year.”
The drummer — who has worked in recent months with everyone fromMachine Gun KellyandAvril LavignetoLil WayneandRick Ross— explained that, simply put, “I just love music.”
“I’m not going to take credit for the sky being blue or my tattoos being black, but we did bring [pop-punk] back,” he said. “I would play on a million albums a year if I could — it’s just being smart and working with people I really love and have a lot in common with… I usually work with people who I know and that I call a friend.”
