Jelly Roll is making a bold prediction about future reactions to his ongoing weight loss journey.
While chatting with CMT, a clip of which was shared to Instagram on Feb. 28, the “I Am Not Okay” crooner suggested that if he were to get “skinny enough,” fans may not be able to tell him apart from another heavily tattooed performer.

“I’m wondering if I lose a little more weight, and when I get to Italy, if they’re going to mistake me for Post Malone,” he joked in the brief video. “Like if I get skinny enough that they just see face tattoos, they’re like, ‘Post! Post!'”

Fans found his banter to be absolutely hysterical, with one writing, “Omg hilarious 😂😍😍😍.”
“how dang funny,” a second agreed. “love both of you!”
“Just tell them your his brother,” a third quipped. “‘Before Malone.'”
“Now that you mention it,” another said, poking fun at the resemblances between the artists—who don’t just look alike, but share other weirdly similar aspects in their lives, like the fact that they both started their careers as rappers before transitioning to country (though Posty has yet to confirm his latest album, F-1 Trillion, would be the start of a whole new career endeavor and not just a one-off country album).
While the jury is still out on whether or not the two artists look alike enough to really get mistaken for one another, one resemblance is not to be argued with, and that’s Noah‘s likeness to his father, the “Need a Favor” crooner. Recent photos of the 8-year-old have fans labeling him a “mini-me” version of the award-winning country artist.
