Nick Jonas pulled double duty on “Saturday Night Live” last night.
Although he was a musical guest three times in the past, Saturday night marked Jonas’ first time hosting the sketch show. But most are talking about the musician’s monologue where he brought in his older brother Kevin Jonas to joke about their band, The Jonas Brothers.
In the monologue, Kevin stood up in the audience and asked, “Are we good? ‘Cause I see you’re doing a lot of solo stuff. Are we still a band?”
Jonas replied, “Of course.”
“Are you sure?” Kevin asked. “Because I just bought a house.”
"Kevin, the band is still together," Jonas said. "I promise."
The Jonas Brothers - which includes brothers Nick, Kevin, and Joe - broke up in 2013, and their "Chasing Happiness" documentary in 2019 cited Nick's budding solo career as the cause. In 2019, the band announced they were getting back together and released their hit single "Sucker."
Later in the show, Jonas debuted his new single, "Spaceman," off his upcoming solo album of the same name. The performance included a futuristic set, a jumpsuit, and an interesting light show.
Kevin returned later in the episode to introduce Jonas's second performance of the night: "This is Heaven."
Jonas rounded out the rest of the show by playing a personal trainer, a bachelor, and even Prince Charming.
