Overview
- The Dec. 10 episode of The Joe Rogan Experience featured a prerecorded clip from Morgan at the Opry inviting Jelly Roll to become a member.
- The singer broke down in tears, removed his headphones, and hugged host Joe Rogan on air after hearing the message.
- Jelly Roll later confirmed the invitation on Instagram as the Grand Ole Opry publicly welcomed him; the official induction date remains pending.
- He made his Opry debut in November 2021 and has returned for multiple performances, including benefit shows in 2025.
- Opry membership weighs airplay, sales, touring and industry recognition, and Jelly Roll has eight Country Airplay No. 1s plus a Billboard 200 No. 1 album.
