Country music star Jelly Roll can now add acting to his resume. The singer-songwriter made his acting debut on the Paramount+ series Tulsa King with Sylvester Stallone.
Jelly played himself in the second episode of season two of the series. Sly’s character “Dwight ‘The General’ Manfredi” is played by his people in the show.
Dwight is brought out to meet Jelly and calls him “Jelly Fish” by mistake. Jelly Roll corrects him on his name, but leads him to think he is starting a new job at the local auditorium as a janitor.
However, Jelly then goes into a recording booth to sing his song “I Am Not Okay” at which point Dwight knows he is being played by his friends.
You can watch the scene in the video below. PROFANITY WARNING: Sly’s character drops an “F-bomb” at around the 2:52 mark.
