Jelly Roll to Guest Host 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' During Summer Lineup

Jelly Roll is set to helm the hosting chair at Jimmy Kimmel Live this summer as part of a rotation of guest hosts covering for the show's namesake during his time off.
The 41-year-old performer joins a lineup that includes returning faces Tiffany Haddish and Anthony Anderson, alongside newcomers Ike Barinholtz and Colman Domingo taking on hosting duties for the first time.
The announcement comes as the rapper navigates recent personal developments, including his recent hospitalization and a divorce filing from Bunnie XO.
The guest hosting schedule kicks off the week of July 6th with Tiffany Haddish, who previously guest hosted the program last year. Anthony Anderson will follow, bringing his experience as a frequent substitute host. Ike Barinholtz takes the reins next, followed by Colman Domingo, with Jelly Roll wrapping up the rotation. The 41-year-old previously guest hosted the show last July, appearing for two episodes.
Jimmy Kimmel Live enters its summer hiatus following the June 18 episode, with reruns scheduled for the subsequent two weeks before the guest host slate begins.
In related news, Guillermo Rodriguez, the show's longtime sidekick, will be competing on Dancing with the Stars when the competition series returns this fall.
