Jelly Roll is guest-hosting Kimmel this week and he told the audience he’s lost 300 pounds, “That means I’ve lost an entire Donald Trump.”
The 41-year-old country star didn’t stop there. He cited a Washington Post report that doctors are worried about the president’s weight, noting Trump gained 14 pounds at his last physical and now sits near 240. Then came the closer: “Well Mr. President, from one fat pig to another, take it from me that physical fitness is very important. And trust me, you’ll be happy to see your penis again.”
Back in 2024, Jelly Roll caught heat for meeting Trump at a UFC event in New York. He defended it at the time on then-wife Bunnie Xo’s podcast: “There’s not a chance in hell that I’m not going to meet the president-elect. I don’t care.”
At the 2026 Grammys, where he won three awards, he’d waved off politics entirely, calling himself “a dumb redneck” who was “so disconnected from what’s happening.”
