Newsypeople – Bunnie XO Defends Relationship with Jelly Roll in ‘Hall Pass’ Video Response, Bunnie XO, the wife of Jelly Roll, recently sparked a wave of attention and backlash with a humorous video titled “Hall Pass,” where she met her “hall pass” crush, Chris Motionless, the frontman of the metalcore band Motionless in White.
The video, which Bunnie uploaded to TikTok, features her meeting Motionless backstage before one of the band’s performances.

Jelly Roll, Bunnie’s husband, responded to the video with a comment that read, “Bout time,” accompanied by laughing emojis.
