The True Meaning Behind Jelly Roll's Many Tattoos

In 2021, Bunnie Xo shared a TikTok of Jelly Roll showing off his freshly inked line tattoo of a quokka on his left wrist. “Quokka gang, b****! Don’t worry, be happy … fight against depression,” he said. The singer told GQ the quokka design was a group tat that he and around 10 of his friends got while intoxicated in Florida, and he explained why he’s so fond of the adorable Australian marsupial. “This is the happiest animal on the planet. It’s native to one island. It has no predators there,” he said.

However, his belief that the quokka is so cheerful because it gets high from eating nothing but eucalyptus leaves is inaccurate — its diet is more varied. Jelly Roll apparently confused the cute critter with the koala. However, they also don’t get stoned from munching on their favorite plant. This is just an urban legend about the lethargic animal.

Still, the quokka does look pretty content. “When life starts throwing me curve balls, I look down at my little quokka, and I go, ‘Be a quokka,” Jelly Roll shared.
