Ep 83. Nick Jonas

Nick Jonas, the American singer, actor, and songwriter, visits the Ellen DeGeneres Show on season 14, episode 83. With a successful career as a solo artist, a member of the Jonas Brothers band, and a talented actor, Nick has many exciting stories to share with Ellen and her audience.

Ellen starts the show by introducing Nick and welcoming him to the stage. With a big round of applause, the audience shows their excitement for the talented star. They start the conversation with Nick's new album "Spaceman," which he released earlier this year. Nick shares that he poured his heart and soul into the project and this album has been therapeutic for him.

Ellen also asks Nick if there's an interesting story behind the title of his album. Nick reveals that during the recording, he would always say "I have to go back to Spaceman" because he named his studio spandex dome. He joked that it made him feel like he was in a spaceship, which also helped him get through the emotional process of making the album.

In addition to the new album, Nick also shares details about his upcoming movie called "Midnight Sky," which he stars in alongside Australian actress Isabel Lucas. Ellen asks him what it's like to film a movie during the COVID-19 pandemic. Nick admits that it has been a challenging experience due to the many safety protocols in place, but it has also been a unique experience to be a part of something during such a different time.

The conversation between Nick and Ellen becomes very personal when Ellen takes a moment to acknowledge that Nick's wife, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, has been a guest on the show before. She then goes on to ask Nick about how he and Priyanka met. Nick shares the story of how they were introduced through a mutual friend, followed by a story of their first date, which he reveals was actually at a party. Ellen and Nick then proceed to play a couple quiz game to see how well Nick knows Priyanka.

The highlight of the show comes when Nick decides to perform his latest single "This Is Heaven" from his album for the thrilled audience. With an acoustic guitar and his smooth, signature vocals, Nick delivers a beautiful and emotional performance that leaves the audience in awe.

Before the show ends, Ellen surprises Nick with a gift box containing a special message inside. Ellen explains that it's a tradition on the show that all guests receive a gift box, and the contents inside have a particular significance for each guest. Nick opens up the box and discovers that he has been given a custom dog tag with "Spaceman" engraved on it, a nod to his latest album.

As the show wraps up, Ellen thanks Nick for being on the show and wishes him all the best with his new album and upcoming projects. The episode leaves the audience happy, entertained, and with a new appreciation for Nick Jonas as a talented performer and a genuinely kind person.
