“Y’all Thought We Were Going To Hate Each Other?” – Jelly Roll Addresses Divorce With A Plot Twist In New Vlog

Co-signing everything she said. By now everybody’s probably sick of hearing about the bombshell divorce between Jelly Roll and his wife, Bunnie Xo. To be honest I’m sick of writing about it, but as long as it’s news and it’s getting attention, I guess it’s what we’ve got to cover. On Monday, TMZ broke the news that Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, filed for divorce from his wife Bunnie Xo, whose real name is Alisa DeFord, back on May 18 in Williamson County Chancery Court, just outside of Nashville. Whiskey Riff obtained a copy of the divorce complaint that was filed by the “Save Me” singer, which reveals that the couple separated on May 9, a week and a half before the request for a divorce was filed. He cites “irreconcilable differences” as the grounds for the divorce, which in Tennessee is a no-fault grounds for divorce that means that the parties agree on the terms of the separation. With so little information out there, the internet sleuths quickly began trying to figure out what happened, which led to a lot of ridiculous rumors. (No, they’re not getting a divorce because they’re being sued and need to protect their assets. That’s not how that works). Of course many people speculated that one party cheated on the other, and some were even convinced that Bunnie was in a relationship with Nickelback lead singer Chad Kroeger, a rumor she quickly shot down tonight on an episode of her Dumb Blonde Podcast. As Bunnie explained, while the decision to split wasn’t necessarily mutual, it’s been as amicable as anyone can hope for during a difficult thing like a divorce – so amicable that they’re still planning on having a baby together. Jelly spoke about the separation for the first time earlier this week during the stop on his Little Ass Shed Tour, confirming what Bunnie said on her podcast: That they’re still best friends, despite the fact that they’re getting a divorce. “I wasn’t going to talk about this tonight, but while we’re talking about liars, the internet is a liar too. … Me and my wife are best friends. We will always be best friends. We just got off the phone earlier today. Nobody cheated on nobody. She just did a whole podcast about it, you can go watch it, every word of it is the truth. That will be my best friend forever. This is the only time I will ever speak about it. Bunnie, I love you baby. Thank you for those 10 years, they were incredible. Thank you for the next 10 years of friendship, and 20 beyond that.” @officialjellyroll Don’t believe everything you read on the internet ♬ original sound – Jelly Roll And yesterday he dropped a new vlog addressing the separation – kind of. In the video, titled “Divorce Vlog,” Jelly promises to address the situation at the end of the vlog. And after showing off tour footage, he delivers on his promise: “I told y’all I was gonna give you all the piping hot tea about the divorce. I know y’all been waiting. You ready for it?” He then holds up his phone – and Bunnie is on the other line: “Mama bear, tell ’em where to find it.” Bunnie directs anybody who’s interested in the tea to listen to her podcast, and Jelly signs off by telling her he loves her: “Y’all thought we were going to hate each other, didn’t you? Plot twist, b–ches. Love you baby.” There you have it. Check out the podcast, and know that Jelly Roll signed off on whatever Bunnie said.The post “Y’all Thought We Were Going To Hate Each Other?” – Jelly Roll Addresses Divorce With A Plot Twist In New Vlog first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

Country Fans Think Megan Moroney Pointed At Sign That Says “Riley Green Sucks” During Performance Of “Who Hurt You?”

Maybe they’re reading too much into it… or maybe she really did see it. Of course, we’ve all heard a lot about the drama between between Megan Moroney and Riley Green. Fans are convinced her song “Who Hurt You?”, which was included on her third studio album Cloud 9 that was released in February, is about whatever happened between them, and she previously explained that writing it was a cathartic moment, which finds her being incredible honest about this elusive situation. She explained that she tried to include “every possible detail” so she never has to talk about it again: “I remember coming up with that song and trying to include every possible detail that rhymes, so that I could put it out into the world and never have to talk about that situation again. Songwriting is always therapeutic for me—but with ‘Who Hurt You?’ in particular I released so many emotions, and it feels really great not to have that all pent-up inside me anymore.” That she did… it’s pretty ruthless, opening with a line that seemingly gets straight to the point about who it’s about, and while I’m sure she’ll never say for sure, it’s one of those “read between the lines” moments, I think… Really, where she sings “the devil went down to Georgia, then he crossed the Bama line” says a LOT about who the subject of this song might be. She goes onto reference “hometown happy hours” and “hand-delivered flowers,” explaining that she “tried to run” while it was still a fun fling, alleging it was the man who “cosplayed someone with feelings” and convinced her to stay: The last verse is really the most scathing, where she calls this person out for dating 21-year-olds and constantly needing his ego fed… she admits that even though she fell for it, she knows she’ll eventually move on, and he won’t. He’ll “stay the same forever”: “You said you needed less flashy, more fun Oh, of course she’s 21 On your arm through the bar God, I hate how gross you are And how did I not see it? Your ego, it needs feeding Endlessly, relentlessly At the cost of me And I’ll move on and I’ll find better But you’ll stay the same forever” Riley seemingly returned the favor with a song called “POS Like Me,” which he share don his own Instagram account the evening she released her album, though he’s since said publicly that it was simply a coincidence, and nothing about the song, or the timing of when he put it out, had anything to do with Megan. But during a show a show for a recent stop on her Cloud 9 tour, a fan held up their phone to her with a message that said “Riley Green sucks” while she played “Who Hurt You?,” and Meg seemed to agree as she pointed directly at the fan: @jaeannapeyt0n love that #fyp #meganmoroney #summerfest #rileygreen @Megan Moroney ♬ Medicine – Megan Moroney The writing on the phone is very small, I have to wonder if Meg even saw it, but plenty of people in the comments section seemed to think it was Megan sending a message, and they were into it: “Boots on the ground journalism honestly, I’m living for it.” “That looks says it all.” “Some of these comments didn’t pass the vibe, Meg is so talented and funny. So are you.” “You know what, hell yeah.” “This is everything.” “I was wondering what she pointed at.” “WAIT is this fr?!?” “Teaaa” “LMAOOOOO I LOVE BEING A GIRLLLL.” “Nailed it.” “Holy SHI.” I feel like this saga is never going to end… “Who Hurt You?” The post Country Fans Think Megan Moroney Pointed At Sign That Says “Riley Green Sucks” During Performance Of “Who Hurt You?” first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

“I Wear A Lot Of Hats” — Morgan Wallen Teases Another New Song From Chicago

This one might be dropping soon. Morgan Wallen played night one of his two-show run at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois, which featured Brooks & Dunn, Gavin Adcock and Zach John King as openers. Other than making a little joke about him canceling his most recently-scheduled show in Pittsburgh a couple weeks ago due to predicted weather, it looks like he was listening to some of his unreleased new music backstage, as he shared a teaser of him listening to one he’s shared a little bit of recently, though what he played this time is a different part of the song. Of course, he released his monster fourth studio album I’m The Problem in May of 2025, and he did go on a 20-show tour of the same name last year too, but since then, he’s been pretty quiet, though he did put out a studio cut of his cover of “Graveyard Whistling” in October of last year, which fans thought could potentially be part of a deluxe edition of I’m The Problem, but that hasn’t proven to be the case, at least not yet. He said not long ago that he was ready to start teasing some new music, though, and I have to imagine this new one will be dropping in the not-too-distant future. It finds him coming to the realization that he’s in a relationship that’s no longer working… because “if it was meant to be, it we’d have been by now”: “If I could go and find, The moment or the night My heart went cold as ice, I’d light the match Don’t wanna draw the line Don’t wanna say goodbye But we’re just wasting time, girl That we don’t have If it was meant to be we’d have been by now, We wouldn’t have to keep trying to work things out Yeah baby we’re a freeze when the lights go down It wouldn’t be so hard when we ain’t in the dark…” It has that heavily pop-influenced production that Morgan often infuses into his music, and of course, it’s very catchy, and I’m sure fans are ready for him to put out as soon as possible. It’s unclear what the name of the song is, and who the writers are, but he shared the clip along with a video of him trying on his hat multiple times with the caption: “I wear a lot of hats.” I’m sure that’s some sort of hint as to what’s to come, so stay tuned, because I have a feeling there’s much more to be revealed… View this post on Instagram Morgan will still has about a month and a half of shows left on his Still The Problem tour run. ‘Still The Problem’ Tour Dates June 19 || Chicago, Ill. || Soldier Field w/ Brooks & Dunn, Gavin Adcock, Zach John King June 20 || Chicago, Ill. || Soldier Field w/ Ella Langley, Gavin Adcock, Zach John King June 26 || Clemson, SC. || Clemson Memorial Stadium w/ Brooks & Dunn, Gavin Adcock, Jason Scott & The High Heat June 27 || Clemson, SC. || Clemson Memorial Stadium w/ Ella Langley, Gavin Adcock, Jason Scott & The High nHeat July 17 || Baltimore, Md. || M&T Bank Stadium w/ Brooks & Dunn, Gavin Adcock, Jason Scott & The High Heat July 18 || Baltimore, Md. || M&T Bank Stadium w/ Ella Langley, Gavin Adcock, Jason Scott & The High Heat July 24 || Ann Arbor, Mich. || Michigan Stadium w/ Thomas Rhett, Hudson Westbrook, Blake Whiten July 25 || Ann Arbor, Mich. || Michigan Stadium w/ HARDY, Hudson Westbrook, Blake Whiten July 31 || Philadelphia, Penn. || Lincoln Financial Field w/ ​​Brooks & Dunn, Hudson Westbrook, Blake Whiten August 1 || Philadelphia, Penn. || Lincoln Financial Field w/ Ella Langley, Hudson Westbrook, Blake WhitenThe post “I Wear A Lot Of Hats” — Morgan Wallen Teases Another New Song From Chicago first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
