AceShowbiz - Jelly Roll and his wife Bunnie XO had an unexpected journey to the 2024 CMT Awards in Austin, Texas. During their flight on Thursday, April 4, their private jet experienced a malfunction that forced them to make an emergency landing.
In a video shared on TikTok, Bunnie captured their reaction to the incident. As the jet halted mid-air, she was visibly shocked, mouthing, "What the f**k?" The situation caused panic among the group, but Bunnie remained relatively composed, saying, "We die, we die."
Bunnie later updated fans, saying they landed safely but may need to return to the same plane. Despite the scare, they were determined to make it to the awards show, which Jelly Roll is attending as both a performer and nominee for three awards, including Male Video of the Year.
Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, has achieved mainstream success with songs like "Need a Favor" and "Son of a Sinner". The 39-year-old artist has been open about his struggles with substance abuse and his path to recovery.
Recently, he testified before U.S. lawmakers about fentanyl use, sharing his personal experience and urging action to address the crisis. Despite his past challenges, Jelly Roll has found strength and a voice in music, using his platform to inspire others.
Just last week, he received two awards at the iHeartRadio Music Awards for Best New Artist (Pop) and Best New Artist (Country). His recent mouth reconstructive surgery has also boosted his confidence, leaving him feeling "sexy."
Jelly Roll's journey is a testament to his resilience and determination. From being a "horrible human" to using his voice to help others, he is using his music to make a positive impact on the world.
