Jelly Roll is officially aiming for the ultimate glow-up!
The 40-year-old music sensation (and walking party anthem) dropped a bombshell on his wife Bunnie XO’s podcast this week, and no, it wasn’t about a new album or a secret barbecue sauce recipe. It was about his goal to grace the cover of Men’s Health magazine by March 2026. Yup, the same magazine where abs shine brighter than the sun and fitness tips require a dictionary to understand.
“I Wanna Be the Comeback Kid, Not the Snack Attack King”
“I wanna be on the cover of Men’s Health by March of 2026. That’s my new goal,” Jelly Roll revealed, possibly while imagining himself doing push-ups on a beach, surrounded by motivational quotes and protein bars.
But wait—this isn’t just about abs of steel or becoming a human kale ad. Jelly Roll’s mission is deeper than a late-night fridge raid. He’s tackling his weight loss journey head-on, and he’s doing it in front of everyone.
“I wanna have one of the biggest transformations,” he said, sounding like a contestant on The Biggest Loser, but with way cooler tattoos. “I did this publicly for a reason. I wanna be honest about my struggles. People hide when they lose weight, like they’re in a witness protection program for carbs. Not me. I’m here for the awkward, sweaty, and shirt-stuck-to-my-back moments.”
Heavyweight Champion of Humility
Jelly Roll also gave us a reality check. “I somehow managed to be this successful carrying 550 pounds. That’s insane,” he admitted. Honestly, that’s like winning a marathon while wearing a couch on your back. Iconic.
But the guy’s not just about shedding pounds—he’s shedding stereotypes, too. “I didn’t become successful because of my weight. I became successful in spite of it,” he declared. Translation: Talent doesn’t weigh in on scales.
Meanwhile, Bunnie XO is All-In for Team Jelly
As if Jelly Roll didn’t already have us fist-pumping for his honesty, his wife Bunnie XO chimed in with her own mic-drop moment. “People need this right now because, let’s face it, everything’s about surgeries and shots. And here you are, dragging your cross to bear—and somehow doing it while making us laugh and cry at the same time. Will you help me carry mine too, babe?”
Honestly, someone give this couple an award. Or at least a subscription to Men’s Health so they can prepare for Jelly’s future cover shoot.
So, What’s Next?
Jelly Roll’s got two years to turn this dream into reality, and if anyone can hustle their way to the finish line, it’s him. He’s proof that no matter the weight you carry—physically, emotionally, or spiritually—you can still aim high.
Oh, and to the editors of Men’s Health: Clear your March 2026 cover now. This man’s coming for it, and we’re all here for the ride.
Cue Rocky theme music and a plate of grilled chicken.
