On Tuesday, Jelly Roll finished a 5K that he’s been training for since the beginning of this year.  The event was called the “Two Bears 5K” and it was hosted by comedians Bert Kreischer and Tom Segura. Jelly said after, “I feel great, I’m a little tired.  It was a little bit harder than I thought, but it’s awesome, man.  I couldn’t walk a mile when I started doing this back in January.  So, the fact that we got 3 point whatever [miles] . . . I felt really, really good about it.” Jelly helped himself out by shedding a lot of weight exercising and training for this, but he was a huge inspiration to others as well.  He said, “I think the coolest thing is how many people stopped to tell us they were motivated by us, other big guys.  It was just really cool to see that.” After the race, Jelly was in a cold plunge and was greeted by his wife Bunnie XO who jumped in the water to celebrate with him.  They shared a big kiss and everybody that was gathered around cheered.Bunnie posted a video with the caption, “Couples that finish the 5K together, cold plunge together.”

Cory Asbury is huge in the Christian country scene.  He was doing an Instagram Q&A on Tuesday when someone informed him there’s a whole page dedicated to his FEET on a fetish site called “WikiFeet”. Someone asked, “How does it feel knowing you have feet fans?”  Which he thought was a joke until they told him to google it.  They said he could probably “make a lot of money on the side” if he wanted to.  It’s around a dozen shots of his feet from different photos and videos he’s posted online, and you can rate them.  His current overall foot rating is a 4.7 out of 5.  It also lists his shoe size as 10-and-a-half, which kinda freaked him out.  He said, “How did they get my size right?”  But he was also a little flattered, because he’s always thought he had pretty nice feet. He shared a new video yesterday and said he intentionally wore socks with his sandals to avoid any more drama.

Hardy has written hit songs for Morgan Wallen. . . they’ve released songs together . . . they’ve toured together.  But Hardy was initially reluctant to work with him. During the commencement speech at his alma mater, Middle Tennessee State University, Hardy said he was young and hungry at the time, and he wasn’t sure that writing for some unknown guy would do anything for his career. Obviously, it worked out for him BIG TIME.  He told the students, “Take a chance on things.  Take a chance on people.  Take a chance on yourself.  The word ‘Yes’ can truly change your life.”

Tyler Hubbard says Florida Georgia Line’s breakup in 2022 felt like a divorce.  The timing was unexpected when Brian Kelley told him he wanted to go solo.  He told Brian “I can’t do both.”  He insisted the band gets 100% attention, or Brian gives his solo project 100%, not 50/50.  Since then, as you know, Tyler has gone solo too.  He recently put out his second album, “Strong”, last month. He says it’s been fun rebuilding.
