Jelly Roll spent years behind bars, but he just stood before millions at the 2026 Grammys to declare that “Jesus is for everybody.” While the world cheered, his wife, Bunnie XO dropped a truth bomb that no one expected: they are just “baby Christians.” This is not a story about being perfect. It is a raw look at two superstars who admit they are still figuring it out.
The mood shifted the moment Bunnie began discussing her memoir, Stripped Down. She grew up in a strict Southern Pentecostal home but spent years filling a void with things that never satisfied her. Now, she describes her marriage as a series of ‘evolutions’ where she and Jason are finally ‘leveling up’ together. It is a refreshing dose of humility that makes you realize it is okay to be a work in progress.
You need to see the look in her eyes when she explains why they refuse to be called role models despite their massive fame.
Watch below how Bunnie XO get honest about her faith on TODAY:
