Priyanka Chopra's husband Nick Jonas opens up on his first heartbreak, reveals he had crush on two people at the same time
Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra have been married since 2018. Their romance, even on social media and love for each other is so inspirational for couples and they indeed serve goals. In a recent interview, Nick spoke about his childhood crush when he liked two people at the same time. The Jonas Brothers appeared on Penn Badgley's podcast, where the YOU actor got them to share some fun stories about their childhood crushes and first heartbreaks. Kevin and Joe talked about their first serious loves—one even wrote a song about it, while the other reflected on it now that his daughter is about the same age. Nick, on the other hand, had a different kind of story. After some hesitation, he finally opened up about a two-part crush he had when he was just 8 years old. On the Podcrushed podcast, Nick reminisced about a theatre production he took part in called A Christmas Carol. 'My first crush was kind of a two-part deal. It's kind of embarrassing,' he admitted, reflecting on his early days on Broadway. 'I was around people who loved to sing and dance and tell stories for the first time, and I really felt like I belonged in this community. And specifically, one of my castmates named Lily…' He paused briefly before continuing, 'But I also had a crush on the child wrangler. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo ' For those unfamiliar, Nick explained, 'They're the ones who run the set when parents can't be around. They help with schoolwork and, you know, just make sure kids don't die on set.' Even at just 8 years old, Nick said he felt nervous about both Lily and the child wrangler finding out about his feelings. So, in true kid fashion, he 'tried to keep it cool.' He joked about feeling like he was caught in a 'mini love triangle.' While it seems funny now, Nick confessed that he was already worried about seeming 'weird,' especially since he was so deeply involved in music and theatre — a passion not shared by many of his peers. Nick then shared about his first heartbreak, which came around the age of 11 or 12. 'It sort of, like, pushed me toward music as a way to process my very big feelings at like 10 or 11,' he said. 'And I'm really grateful for that outlet because it's turned out to be a good one.' Nick and Priyanka have a daughter, Malti Marie Chopra Jonas.

Cleo Laine, British jazz singer who performed with Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra, dies at 97
By William Schomberg Cleo Laine, British jazz singer who performed with Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra, dies at 97 LONDON, , 2025 - British jazz singer Cleo Laine, who performed with musical greats including Frank Sinatra and starred as an actor in London's West End and on Broadway, has died aged 97, the Guardian newspaper reported on Friday, citing a statement from her children Jacqui and Alec. Born to an English mother and a Jamaican father in a suburb of London in 1927, she initially worked as a hair-dresser, a hat-trimmer and a librarian. She married in 1946 and had a son while still a teenager. Driven on by her dream of becoming a singer, she divorced and got her big break in 1951, when she joined the band of English saxophonist and clarinettist John Dankworth at 24. Dankworth's band decided her name was too long - at the time she thought she had been born Clementine Campbell, though a passport application later revealed her mother had used her own surname Hitching on the birth certificate. The men of the Dankworth Seven band thought her name was too cumbersome for a poster, and that her nickname Clem was too cowboy-like. They settled on a new stage persona for her by drawing "Cleo" and "Laine" from hats. In 1958, she and Dankworth married. Their home became a magnet for London's jazz set: friends included stars from across the Atlantic such as Oscar Peterson and Ella Fitzgerald, Lester Young and Dizzy Gillespie. After acting as well as singing in Britain through the 1960s, Laine toured Australia in 1972 and performed at New York's Lincoln Centre. The recording of a further show, at Carnegie Hall, won her a Grammy. Recordings included "Porgy and Bess" with Ray Charles. In 1992 she appeared with Frank Sinatra for a series of shows at the Royal Albert Hall in London, but she was best known for her work with Dankworth's bands. He later became her musical director. The couple built their own auditorium in the grounds of their home near London and were friends with the late Princess Margaret, the sister of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Their two children went on to become musicians. Dankworth - who Laine described as being "joined at the hip" with her - died in 2010. Hours after his death, Laine performed a scheduled show in their auditorium, announcing the news about her husband only at the end of the concert.

Lay's Teams Up With Lionel Messi For A One-Of-A-Kind Limited Edition Flavour
When craving potato chips, the first name that usually pops into our minds is Lay's. The brand doesn't compromise on taste and offers a range of delicious flavours, including spicy, cheese-infused, lemony, and sweet-and-sour, to name a few. Now, Lay's has come up with a new and first-of-its-kind chip that caters especially to meat lovers. In their latest collaboration with football icon Lionel Messi, Lay's has launched a limited-edition, lip-smacking flavour called Argentinian Style Steak. Whether you're a soccer fan or not, this packet of chips is worth a try. According to a report by Parade, the bold and innovative steak-style Lay's is modelled after Lionel Messi's favourite dish and connects back to his national roots. Expect a smoky and zesty punch with every crunchy bite. Once the taste hits the right spot, don't be surprised if you're reminded of a mouth-watering, slow-cooked grilled steak with notes of chimichurri sauce. But hold up - the fanciness doesn't end there. The packaging is equally attractive and far from ordinary. Described as the "limited edition Lionel Messi bag," it features a colour pattern identical to Messi's number 10 Argentine jersey. Blue and white stripes dominate the cover, with a photo of the football legend on the front and his jersey number behind him. Take a look: Also Read: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Marcus Smith (@mnmtwinz) Also Read: Who Is The 'London Chaiwala' Serving Tea To PM Modi In UK? All About Amala Chai And Founder Akhil Patel The new Lay's Argentinian Style Steak is available only in the United States, at retail stores like Speedway, Kroger, and 7-Eleven. This isn't the first time that the partnership between Lay's and Lionel Messi has led to unique flavours. Last year, the potato chip company launched a campaign urging football fans to chant "Oh-Lays" every time a player scored a goal. This witty and playful twist on the signature "Ole" chant - synonymous with professional soccer - was a hit. Soon after the fun initiative, Lay's introduced a limited-edition Crispy Taco-flavoured potato chip. Needless to say, it was a favourite among both chip and football enthusiasts.
