Netflix’s Jonas Brothers Family Roast, hosted by Kenan Thompson, witnessed comedians, family and friends take potshots at Kevin Jonas, Joe Jonas, and Nick Jonas. Their better halves Danielle Jonas, Sophie Turner, and Priyanka Chopra were in attendance and didn’t leave a moment to take a dig at their husbands as well.
Here are a few best moments from the Jonas Brothers Family Roast:
PRIYANKA CHOPRA ON NICK JONAS’ ACTING CAREER
“Nick and I have a 10-year age gap. Yes. We do, and there are many ’90s pop culture references he doesn’t understand and I have to explain them to him, which is fine because we teach other. We teach each other things. He showed me how to use TikTok, for example, and I showed him what a successful acting career looks like.”
PRIYANKA ON 10-YEAR AGE GAP WITH NICK
“I love his entire family. Nick, Joe, Kevin, you guys are amazing. Nick has changed my life. I wouldn’t want to babysit—I mean, be married to— anyone else, ever.”
SOPHIE TURNER ON JONAS BROTHERS’ INFAMOUS PROMISE RINGS
“Let’s talk about the purity rings. For those of you who don’t know, purity rings are worn to demonstrate that you’re abstaining from sex before marriage. And the Jonas Brothers, they all had them. Like, I know this is a roast and you all think I should be going after them, but I think we need to set the record straight here. No, the rings weren’t a good idea. Yes, as a gesture they’re laughably, toe-curlingly lame. But remember—this was about more than a gesture.”
“This was about faith, this was about principle, this was about taking a stand and setting an example. Look, Joe Jonas wasn’t just sticking his fingers in some dumb metal rings. He was sticking his fingers in costars, actresses and even a supermodel or two. To be honest, Joe and the purity ring things is kind of like a modern-day Cinderella. Joe tried to find a match for his purity rings a few times, but finally, the finger fit me. It was also like Cinderella because most of the girls he tried it with were under contract to Disney.”
SOPHIE TURNER ON JOE JONAS’ ACTING CAREER
“I said when I started acting that I would never date an actor, and after I saw Camp Rock 2 I knew it was safe to date Joe.”
“I must love him because I moved to America to be with him… Interestingly, in America, the sequel to Camp Rock was called Camp Rock 2. Whereas in England, it was just called a load of s—.”
PETE DAVIDSON ON NICK JONAS’ ACTING CAREER
“Show some respect. Nick’s a legit actor now. He’s won everything from Kids’ Choice Award to a Teen Choice Award.”
JOHN LEGEND (via a song)
“I wrote a song to tell them they’re my favorite band / I wish they could hear it but they’re not here today / No John, Paul, George or Ringo / Just Joe, Nick, and I want to say… Keith?” Legend sang. “You’re not quite the Beatles / Though you’re really nice guys / You’re pretty darn handsome, and better than Hanson / But you’ll never be the Beatles, nice try.”
LILLY SINGH ON JONAS BROS
“Kevin is actually my favorite Jonas brother. Because he makes you believe that anyone can be a pop star. When you see a picture of him next to Nick and Joe you always think, ‘Wow, Nick and Joe are really close with their accountant.'”
“Joe is so white that when it was time to name his band, he couldn’t even spell ‘dance’ right.”
PETE DAVIDSON ON JOE JONAS AND SOPHIE TURNER
“These guys rock! A Little Bit Longer is both my favorite album, and it’s what Sophie wishes Joe’s penis was. Winter is coming, but Sophie, not so much.”
DANIELLE JONAS ON KEVIN’S STATUS
“I’ve lost my voice! It’s okay. At least I had a voice to lose… unlike Kevin. I met Kevin on vacation and before that the only thing I’ve done on vacation that ruined my life was getting vacation braids. I basically ignored him the whole time, which he loved because he said it reminded him of his mom.”
JACK WHITEWALL ON PURITY RINGS
“For much of my youth, like you guys, I was in a purity pledge situation. A pledge was taken that I would remain a virgin by every single girl at my school. And do you know how I was able to keep my man hymen intact for so long? Because of you guys. Seriously, the more I told people that I listen to your music, the less they wanted to have sex with me. I may as well have worn one of your albums around my neck like a leper’s bell.”
