Jelly Roll is an artist who always has his eyes set on something, both professionally and personally. The country artist has always been open about his weight goals and journey, and to encourage himself further, he's set a very ambitious goal. Jelly Roll wants to be on the cover of Men's Health 2026.

Mr. Roll sat down with his wife, Bunnie XO, on her Dumb Blonde podcast. This couple has always been incredibly supportive of each other, and it's always so endearing hearing her talk about her husband (or Boogie Roll, as she said that one time).
Excited for her husband, she encouraged him to share his next goal with the world, something he only shared with her in private the day before.
"I wanna be on the cover of Men's Health by March 2026," he admitted, to the support of his wife. "I wanna have one of the biggest transformations."
Jelly Roll has already made incredible progress when he previously said he'd already shred 100 pounds.
He then touched on why he's made his journey so public.
Jelly Roll Explains Why His Health Journey Is So Documented
"I did this publicly for a reason," he began to explain. "I want to be honest about my struggles to people."
He said that he felt others who struggled with weight and who became famous hid away to lose it in shame. And when they emerge back into the public eye, they struggle to present their new look to the world. Jelly Roll doesn't want that to happen.
"I wanted to lose it in front of everybody. I want to talk about it, it's on my Daily Roll Vlog, you know what I mean?" he said. "This is what I'm constantly putting in the air because I want to bring people along with me."
He then says something incredibly powerful, "I didn't become successful because of my weight, I became successful in spite of it."
"I somehow managed to be this successful carrying 550 pounds. That's insane," he admits.
So it looks like next year will be even tougher than this year if that's his goal. So long as he keeps it up, however, I'm sure he'll be fine. He's got everyone behind him.
