Jelly Roll disinvited from law enforcement gala after stint on Kimmel's show

Key Points:

• Country artist Jelly Roll was formally uninvited from performing at the November fundraiser Big Blue Bash at Mar-a-Lago, hosted by Law Enforcement Today to support the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association (FLEOA) Foundation, following his critical remarks about Donald Trump on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
• The invitation was originally sent in April 2026, asking Jelly Roll to perform worship songs, but was withdrawn after his late-night show appearance where he mocked Trump’s weight, fitness, and approval ratings.
• Law Enforcement Today's Kyle Reyes stated the decision was due to Jelly Roll's public attacks on Trump and conservatives, which they felt betrayed his fans, faith, and the event’s God-centered theme honoring fallen officers.
• Jelly Roll acknowledged his shift from being perceived as apolitical and MAGA-aligned to being seen as more liberal, emphasizing his Christian faith and middle-ground political stance during his Kimmel monologue.
• The event will proceed with performances by Rachel Holt, Coffey Anderson, and a surprise American Idol star, and FLEOA did not immediately comment on the situation.
