The Jonas Brothers joke about how they 'met' on Amelia Dimoldenberg's Chicken Shop Date

The Jonas Brothers were Amelia Dimoldenberg’s latest lunch guests on her popular Chicken Shop Date segment, and she didn’t hold back on asking the hard-hitting questions.

The Jonas Brothers have just released their sixth studio album, The Album, which gave the band their fourth No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart in the US. The band previously led the list with Happiness Begins (2019), Lines, Vines and Trying Times (2009) and A Little Bit Longer (2008).

In the latest Chicken Shop Date episode, Amelia began by jokingly asking the siblings: “How did you guys all meet?” Kevin Jonas answered: “It happened in stages, and these other two people introduced us”.

Joe Jonas then added: “We met through our parents.” In the episode, Amelia wore a red dress in reference to the band’s 2008 hit ‘Burning’ Up’.

Amelia said: “It was just a pure coincidence. Looking through my wardrobe, I thought, ‘Oh, look at that’. Nick then interjected: “Red dress” in the tone from ‘Burnin’ Up’, before teaching Amelia how to sing it properly.

Joe’s wife, Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner, also made an appearance at the end of the episode, when the host cut her date with Joe short to hang out with his wife instead. “I’m bored. Can we go?” Turner asks Dimoldenberg from a table nearby, before the two happily leave the restaurant together.
