Uber Eats is making some of the biggest stars forget important things, including Jelly Roll. In their commercial, the delivery app wants you to remember that they can bring users food, supplies, and so much more — but there is a catch to remembering this. As Jennifer Aniston says in the ad, “You know what they say … in order to remember something, you’ve got to forget something else.” The spot finds Aniston forgetting her “Friends” co-star, David Schwimmer, while David and Victoria Beckham forget that she was a member of the Spice Girls. Jelly Roll also appears in the ad, having forgotten about his iconic face tattoos.
In the commercial, the singer sees his reflection in the mirror but doesn’t remember all the tattoos he has on his face. He questions, “Did someone doodle on my face?” The musician then attempts to rub off the tattoos, before discovering it’s permanent. “It’s not coming off!” he yells in a panic.
From the very beginning, Jelly Roll thought the gag was a brilliant idea. He told People, “The first thing I said when I walked onto the commercial set that day was, ‘Yo, I don’t know who the f*** was sitting in a room writing this and thought, wouldn’t it be funny if Jelly Roll was scraping off his tattoos?’ But I love that person forever.”
