A Man Of The People: Jelly Roll Chose Kids In Need Over People’s Choice Award Show.
Country singer Jelly Roll, despite winning the award for Best Country Male Singer at this year’s People’s Choice Award Show, was notably absent. However, his absence wasn’t due to mere disregard; rather, he was engaged in a meaningful endeavor. After expressing gratitude to his incredible fans, Jelly Roll shared the heartfelt reason behind his absence.
“Here’s the truth,” he began. “I’m actually standing in the juvenile courthouse right now, having just walked out of the juvenile facility. We partnered with the Beat of Life to bring a music program to the kids.”
In a commendable act of kindness, Jelly Roll explained that, although he was disappointed to miss the awards show, his commitment to the program took precedence.
“This has been on my calendar for a long time. I promised these kids I was coming — I know whenever I was a kid in here, I got let down a lot. I didn’t want to be one of the people letting these kids down — I had to honor my word.”
Fans not only appreciated Jelly Roll’s transparency but also marveled at his compassion and dedication to making a positive impact on the lives of young individuals.
