Jelly Roll continues to lose weight and has his eye on a goal number and the perfect activities when he gets there. The “American Idol” artist-in-residence shared the magic number he’s shooting for and some risky things he’d like to pursue.
Jelly Roll Shares Goals Once He Loses More Weight
Jelly Roll has been on a health journey that’s resulted in his nearly 200-pound weight loss and counting. He’s still got a little ways to go, but the singer is determined to achieve his goal.
In an April 24 interview on “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” the singer shared where he’d ideally like to be with his weight.
During the sit-down, he joked he had “lost an entire Jimmy Kimmel,” but said he’s shooting for a goal of weighing 250 pounds.
According to the singer, that will open the door for him to check off a bunch of bucket list items.
“I do have a number in mind. For the non-fluffy people in the world, I would give y’all some educational course here — to do all the fun stuff in life, you’ve got to be under 250,” Jelly Roll explained.
He noted, “I want to skydive, I want to ride a roller coaster. I want to ride a bull.”
Jelly Roll continued, “I know it sounds crazy. I want to wrestle an alligator. I’ve got a list of things that I want to do.”
Jelly Roll Is Ready to Take Big Risks
Kimmel found it interesting that the singer wants to get healthy so he can risk his life with dangerous activities.
“So let me get this straight: You do all this hard work and you have all this discipline losing all this weight, and then you want to do something that will potentially kill you?” he asked.
Jelly Roll responded, “Ain’t that great?!”
The singer added, “Listen, I was waiting on the heart disease to do it, so I might as well get it off and run straight into it the other way.”
The late night host proposed a combo idea, asking, “Have you ever considered wrestling the alligator while you skydive?”
Jelly Roll joked, “That’ll be my plus-one.”
As for how the new “American Idol” season 23 addition has lost so much weight, he revealed it’s not that complicated.
Kimmel noted, “You look more fit every single time I see you. What’s going on?”
“Dude, listen. I’ve been thinking about ways to make it sound cool, but I can’t,” Jelly Roll said. “I’m eating a lot of protein and vegetables and walking. That’s what I’m doing.”
