Bunnie XO is due for some good karma after fighting tooth and nail to make it on time to a talent show to watch her young niece perform a JoJo Siwa song. In a hilarious TikTok posted Tuesday (May 21), the podcaster — who is married to country superstar Jelly Roll — frantically jogs from […]
Bunnie XO took to social media on Wednesday (May 8) to reveal the devastating news that her father, Bill, has died. “Hey Bill, I’m going to miss you,” the Dumb Blonde podcast host wrote alongside a series of photos and videos with her father throughout the years. “You are still my favorite rock star & […]
Jelly Roll made a hug stride in his fitness journey this week, completing his first-ever 5K alongside his wife, podcaster Bunnie XO.
The two stars ran a total of 3.1 miles together in the 2 Bears 5K hosted by comedians Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer, held in Los Angeles Tuesday (May 7) as part of the Netflix Is a Joke Fest. Afterward, the country star — who’s been open about his weight-loss journey — opened up about the emotional milestone in an interview with Entertainment Tonight, noting he lost “50- to 70-some pounds” while training for the event.
“I couldn’t walk a mile when I started trying to do this back in January,” Jelly told the outlet, revealing he teared up after crossing the finish line. “So the fact that we got 3-point-whatever it was [miles], got it down, I feel really, really good about it.”
“I feel great, I’m a little tired,” he continued. “It was a little bit harder than I thought it was [going to be], but it’s awesome, man … I think the coolest thing is how many people stopped to tell us that they were motivated by us, other big guys. It was really cool to see that.”

After the race, Bunnie shared a sweet video on TikTok of Jelly taking an ice bath alongside Segura and Kreischer. In the clip, she hops in with her husband as excited onlookers count down.
“The couples that finish the 5k together, cold plunge together,” she wrote in text over the video. She added in her caption, “What a beautiful day w/ beautiful ppl! So proud of my baby doing the 5k & losing 50 lbs to do it!”
The event comes a couple weeks after the entrepreneur told fans on TikTok that Jelly had quit social media because he was “so tired of being bullied about his f–king weight.” “My husband doesn’t show it to you guys, but I’m going to have a very vulnerable moment here,” she added at the time. “It hurts him.”
Later, the CMT Award-winner clarified that “it wasn’t just bullying” that led him to step away from the internet. “It was not only the toxicity of social media, but the addiction of it,” Jelly explained to Variety. “I was becoming too busy to waste hours of my life scrolling.”

Step aside, Jelly Roll! Bunnie XO took to TikTok this week to post a hilarious video in which she met Motionless in White’s frontman, Chris Motionless, whom she playfully called her “hall pass.” She captioned the slow motion montage of shaking the rocker’s hand with Celine Dion’s enduring love song, “Power of Love.” “You could […]
Bunnie XO has always been an open book, and her latest TikTok shares insight to her traumatic upbringing.
The Dumb Blonde podcast host took part in a recent trend on the platform to the tune of Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department hit, “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” in which she sings, “You wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me.” Participants of the trend share the various “asylums” they grew up experiencing.
In Bunnie’s version, she shows a photo of her teenage self before showing a picture of a church as the “asylum” that hurt her. “Pentacostals & Mental Hospitals,” she captioned the photos set, adding, “That pic was taken shortly after I left home at 14. Wait ’til y’all read my book.”

Last week, Bunnie got vulnerable on her podcast and discussed how online bullying and harsh comments have affected her husband, country superstar Jelly Roll. “My husband got off the internet because he is so tired of being bullied about his f–king weight,” she said on the podcast. “And that makes me want to cry, because he is the sweetest angel baby. My husband doesn’t show it to you guys, but I’m going to have a very vulnerable moment here. It hurts him.
“The internet can say whatever they f–king want about you and they say, ‘You’re a celebrity. You’re supposed to be able to handle it.’ No the f–k we’re not … Enough is enough,” she continued. “Don’t bully people, because you never know where they are mentally. There are a lot of people who are not as strong as me, that are on the internet and they don’t deserve to f–kin’ be bullied.”
The entrepreneur also called out internet trolls and bullies who try to intimidate her and her family. “I’m going to stand up for all the f–kin’ underdogs. You’re never going to bully me. You’re never going to lie about me or my family, and I will fight to the end,” she said. “I love it when people say, ‘Bunnie is a bad human. Just wait and you’ll see.’ I’ve been on the internet 15 f–kin’ years. When are they gonna see? I’m waiting. What you see is what you get with me. I don’t f–kin’ pretend to be something I’m not … all you gotta do is leave me and my family the f–k alone, and you won’t get called out.”

Earlier this week, Flavor Flav posted a video standing up for Jelly Roll after the country star’s wife, podcaster Bunnie XO, revealed that her husband had quit social media due to relentless bullying about his weight. But in a new interview, the “Need a Favor” singer explained that there’s actually a bit more to the story — although he’s very grateful to the DJ for coming to his defense.
“He’s a sweet human, man,” Jelly told Variety of Flav in an article published Friday (April 26). “His wife is just salt of the earth. I met their whole family again last night. I’ve gotten to really spend some time with Flav and his family, and they’re real, real salt of the earth.”
The three-time CMT Award-winner went on to say he’s “sure [he’ll] be back” on social media at some point, but for now, there’s “bigger fish to fry.”
“I probably shouldn’t elaborate on this because nobody on my team wants me to, but I don’t have a problem with social media,” he continued. “And it wasn’t just bullying that did it. It was not only the toxicity of social media, but the addiction of it. I was becoming too busy to waste hours of my life scrolling.”
“I can honestly say that I’ve been off social media for a few months now and I’ve never felt better or healthier mentally — never felt more clearheaded,” Jelly added. “I’ve also never had less of an idea what was going on in the world, but I tell you what, I’m definitely not coming back before the election. Bad joke.”
The interview comes a few days after Bunnie told fans on TikTok that Jelly “got off the internet because he is so tired of being bullied about his f–king weight.” She added, “My husband doesn’t show it to you guys, but I’m going to have a very vulnerable moment here … It hurts him.”
Shortly afterward, Flavor Flav addressed the haters with a video on X. “How dare y’all try to judge my man about his weight and his character,” the rapper said at the time. “All y’all trying to judge my boy Jelly Roll, I think y’all need to take a step back and judge yourself.”
The “Son of a Sinner” musician is currently gearing up to make his Stagecoach debut at this year’s festival. He’s slated to perform on the first day of the weekend-long event, which kicks off Friday and will also see sets from Morgan Wallen, Miranda Lambert, Eric Church, Willie Nelson, Post Malone, Hardy and more.
“I tell you what: I don’t know what every other artist does when they debut at Stagecoach, but I have taken it serious,” Jelly told Variety, noting that he wants to premiere some new material at the festival. “I rehearsed more for Stagecoach than I have any single event in my career.”
Bunnie XO has no time for haters. The Dumb Blonde podcast host took to TikTok to shut down trolls who have negative things to say about her and her husband Jelly Roll. “How we walk thru life together knowing we make ppl smile & others sooo mad,” she wrote over a video of the duo […]
Jelly Roll had a big night on the CMT Awards stage on Sunday (April 7), but behind the scenes, Bunnie XO — who is the country star’s wife — got her moment as well. Backstage at the show – where the “Son of a Sinner” singer scored three major wins – the model brushed shoulders with actor-singer Billy Bob Thornton, leaving her totally in awe.
In a clip Bunnie posted to TikTok one day after the ceremony, the camera follows her as she walks up to the actor and gives him a big hug. “Hi, I’m Jelly’s wife,” she introduces herself, to which Thornton says, “I know. How are you, honey?”

“Aw, it’s so nice to meet you,” the Goliath star adds.
“I almost fainted meeting Billy Bob Thornton because he knew who I was,” Bunnie wrote of the encounter, noting in her caption, “Ok this made me starstruck.”
That night, Jelly Roll took home video of the year, male video of the year and CMT performance of the year, all for his song “Need a Favor” — after which he closed out the show with a performance of “Halfway to Hell.” Later, Bunnie celebrated her husband’s achievements with an emotional post on Instagram, calling him “the maestro of misfits.”
“You are not an overnight success story, this has been 20 years in the making,” she added at the time. “Papabear your voice is an instrument of healing & the world is your choir. I LOVE YOU IN THIS LIFETIME & EVERY OTHER ONE IM LUCKY TO BE BY YOUR SIDE IN.”
As the Dumb Blonde Podcast host revealed in a TikTok a couple days before the CMTs, it’s a miracle she and Jelly even made it to the show at all. After their plane took flight en route to Austin, Texas, it suddenly turned around and made an emergency landing due to a malfunction, according to Bunnie.
“CMT i swear we’re coming 😭,” she captioned the clip.
