At the 2026 Grammys on Sunday, February 1, many celebrities criticized U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). However, one star, Jelly Roll, kept his opinions to himself for the time being.
The singer, whose real name is Jason DeFord, would not comment on the current climate in the U.S. He was honored with three awards at the ceremony, including Best Contemporary Country Album for Beautifully Broken.
Jelly Roll called himself a “dumb redneck” after being asked about ICE
While singers Bad Bunny and Billie Eilish gave harsh comments about ICE, Jelly Roll refused to comment on the state of the country. When asked if he would like to respond by reporters in the backstage press room, he responded, “not really.” Then added, “So, this is the truth, and I’m glad somebody asked because I love talking about this stuff, and people care to hear my opinion, but, so, I can tell you that people shouldn’t care to hear my opinion.”
Describing himself as “a dumb redneck,” the “Son of a Sinner” singer admitted he hasn’t “watched enough. I didn’t have a phone for 18 months. I’m so disconnected from what’s happening.”
Although he didn’t comment to reporters at the Grammys, Jelly Roll said he’d be giving his opinion soon. “I’m going through it the next week, and everybody’s going to hear exactly what I have to say about it in the most loud and clear way I’ve ever spoke in my life,” he said. “So, I look forward to it.”
Along with winning Best Contemporary Country Album, Jelly Roll won Best Country Duo/Group Performance for “Amen” with Shaboozey, along with Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song with on Brandon Lake for “Hard Fought Hallelujah.”
