  • First of all, can I just recap for you?

  • -Sure. -This is what happened to you.

  • You were in "Jumanji" and "Jumanji" made

  • almost $1 billion worldwide. I don't know if you knew that.

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • Biggest movie. Congratulations.

  • You were fantastic in it. -Thank you. Thank you.

  • I've got to say, dude, she is the most fun person.

  • We love her so much. Priyanka Chopra.

  • -She's the best. -How did you --

  • how did you meet? -Well, we met through a friend.

  • So we got connected first over text

  • and we started talking for a while,

  • and it was about six months before we met up in person.

  • And then we actually attended the Met Gala

  • a few years ago together. -Oh, yeah.

  • -Had a great time, but it just --

  • -As friends. -Just friends.

  • And our lives were kind of taking us to different places.

  • And the thing that was funny, is people would ask us,

  • both in an interview setting and in private,

  • "Are you guys seeing each other?"

  • And the answer was "No" and people thought

  • we were being coy. And so did we --

  • until we cut to now we're engaged

  • so the story sort of wrote itself.

  • -Yeah, like, oops. Yeah.

  • -But you know, we then met up

  • a couple months ago --

  • I think five months ago now,

  • and it was kind of immediate

  • and I think we just knew it was right and jumped right in

  • and we're very happy. -Oh, that's fantastic, dude.

  • I love that. I love her --

  • Please give her -- give her my best.

  • She's one of our favorites. -She's here.

  • -Is she here? -She's here right now.

  • -Is she in the crowd?

  • [ Cheers and applause ]

  • -She's over there.

  • -Ah! Hey, pal. Hey, how are you?

  • Hi, hi, hi. Oh. All right.

  • I mean -- I think. I mean, I think she's okay.

  • [ Light laughter ]

  • Oops. Sorry. You know I love you, pal.

  • Explain what this is about.

  • So, we -- Okay, so after we got engaged, we then went to India,

  • to her home country and to Mumbai.

  • And my parents came along

  • and we did this beautiful Roka ceremony.

  • -What is that? -Basically, it's a confirmation

  • from both sides of the family

  • that they approve of the engagement.

  • And then there's some beautiful prayers

  • and a connection just for the family to have a chance to meet

  • and hang out and get to know each other.

  • It's really incredible, and you know,

  • we both left that ceremony so full of joy.

  • -How did your family handle that?

  • -They loved it. My parents were blown away by

  • the love shared among all the people.

  • And just the -- -a little different

  • than New Jersey. -A little different than Jersey.

  • [ Light laughter ]

  • But it was really special and for she and I,

  • I think it was just nice to be able to have that time

  • with the family first. And have that private moment.

  • And be able to share with the world afterwards.

  • But it's funny that we had this beautiful ceremony,

  • and we felt so connected, and our families all met.

  • And it was spiritual. And then we put it on Instagram.

  • And we were like, "Oh, my God, it's official."

  • -Now we Instagram. Now it's real.

  • Now they really have to do it. Yeah.

  • Do you guys -- there's a nice picture

  • of the family there on Instagram.

  • Now uh, NP -- is that your logo? Is that a logo for your --

  • Do you guys have a celebrity nickname?

  • -We -- -Priyanka, you can answer that.

  • Do you have a celebrity nickname?

  • -She likes Prick. [ Laughter ]

  • -No, no, no. Absolute no. -I don't like that one.

  • -Absolutely no.

  • [ Laughs ]

  • I have to ask you this question

  • because it's one of my favorite stories.

  • We were talking earlier today.

  • Thanks for doing the bit, by the way.

  • -Oh, it was great. I had a lot of fun.

  • -Love hanging out with you.

  • But you told me the story about

  • going to the Golden Globes

  • and it must have been exciting.

  • -Oh, gosh. -I was like, "Was it exciting

  • for you?" And you go, "yeah, I lost, but --"

  • just tell the story 'cause it's great.

  • -Well, I feel like every time I come here

  • I tell you a really embarrassing story by the way.

  • -Exactly. And that's why --

  • And I love that you keep coming back

  • and I keep making you embarrass yourself.

  • -But it's sad that the first thought I had

  • when something embarrassing happens is,

  • "I got to talk to Jimmy."

  • [ Laughter ]

  • -Please, always do that. Please.

  • -So, I'm at the Golden Globes. I was very excited.

  • I was so honored to be nominated for the song.

  • And it was a real career milestone for me.

  • -Yeah. -And I'm sitting in the audience

  • with my brother who came with me.

  • And they announced the award and we lost.

  • Or, I lost. Me and my co-writers.

  • And I was devastated.

  • I was really hoping it would happen and he said,

  • "Let's go to the bar, let's grab a drink.

  • Blow off some steam for a minute and we'll go back inside."

  • -Yeah.

  • -And so I go to the bar with Joe.

  • I grab myself a beer, and he gets one.

  • And I'm hanging out and I've heard all this talk that

  • Michael Keaton is arriving soon.

  • People are whispering, "Michael Keaton's coming over.

  • He's gonna come over." And I'm thinking to myself,

  • "Wow, this is great. I'm so excited to meet Michael Keaton."

  • -Yeah, I love Michael Keaton. -And I've got my beer here

  • and there's a woman here trying to take a picture of me and Joe.

  • And she bumps into us as he approaches.

  • And the beer spills all over Michael Keaton

  • just before he goes on stage to present an award.

  • So cut to three or four days ago,

  • we're at the U.S. Open. -This is the best.

  • -And I kid you not.

  • I walk in, shuffling to our thing with the beer,

  • and I see Michael Keaton.

  • It's like he locks eyes with me. He's like --

  • [ Light laughter ]

  • "I hope you're not drinking a beer."

  • -Yeah, you better watch it Jonas."

  • -And I sat down. -Yeah.

  • -I had the little bag on my lap.

  • Put my beer on the ground, and he's right here.

  • And the bag falls off in slow motion.

  • [ Audience oohs ]

  • Hits the beer.

  • And it spills below his feet.

  • [Laughter]

  • -All over -- All over Michael Keaton.

  • -But it didn't hit him.

  • It was all over his feet and I'm wondering now

  • if he knows that it was me and he just ignored it.

  • Or if he was so mad that he just let it go. I don't know.

  • [ Laughter ]

  • But it's a theme -- -But it's a theme for you.

  • And that sounds like something that would happen to me.

  • -It's just so embarrassing and of all people,

  • it's Michael Keaton. -He's the greatest.
