Jelly Roll Has Lost A Huge Amount of Weight
Jelly Roll shared a personal milestone on his Instagram this week. He has lost 100 pounds, marking the halfway point on his goal of losing 200 pounds after this tour.
In a video clip, his nutritionist and trainer talked about Jellyās progress, “We just passed the halfway point of the tour, and Jellyās been crushing it.”
The nutritionist, who travels with Jelly on his current 2024 “Beautifully Broken Tour,” added, “Weāre either walking [around] the arena, playing basketball, boxing. He just surpassed his 100-pound weight loss.”
Jelly Roll says at the beginning of the video clip, “Next year, when yāall see me, you wonāt recognize me. Iām going to get under a pile of weights in a way that I never had.”
The nutritionist shared that the singer is on a “high-protein diet” and talked about how he is doing it with special recipes, including his version of Nashville hot chicken and what Jelly eats for energy before a show.
The Instagram post was captioned, “Quick halfway point tour update from @cheflarios.”

Jelly performed in New York City with Kelly Clarkson a few weeks ago on The Kelly Clarkson Show. The two performed “Iām Not Okay” together.
Kelly posted a video clip to Instagram of the two rehearsing the song together. In the video, Jelly says, “You be Miss Clarkson, and Iāll be Jelly, and I think weāre gonna be all right.” Kelly says, “Kelly likes Jelly,” and Jelly says, “Jelly likes Kelly.” Jelly tells the camera, “Iām excited, and Iāll walk in, and I will be nervous. Itāll go straight from excitement to nerves.” Kelly explains, “We met at the Grammys. I had sung your song.” Jelly says, “Hold on. I went and fanned out on her. She aināt gonna say that part, but I went down, and I said, ‘Miss Clarkson, I am such a fan,’ and when she turned around, she said, ‘Hey Jelly’ and I was like, ‘She knows me.'”
Clarkson said, “Are you kidding?” and then discussed how they would do the song together. After they sing a few bars, Kelly tells Jelly, “This song is so good,” and he replies, “Thank you.” She then says, “Iām excited heās allowing me to sing on his song, ‘I’m Not Okay,’ itās so so good.” Then, they start to rehearse once again and Jelly says, “You make a dream come true?”
Clarkson says of Jelly Roll, “Iām just a huge fan I love authenticity I love real messages, and I think that really matters.” The two hug, and Kelly says thank you and that heās a great hugger.
