Priyanka Chopra, one of India’s highest-paid actors, and her singer & songwriter husband Nick Jonas are going to announce the nominations for 93rd Academy Awards together.
The news regarding the special event has been delivered by Chopra and Jonas through their social media accounts; meanwhile, of course, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) released a statement through its official social channels.
The couple’s announcement came with a hilarious video recorded by ‘The White Tiger‘ star. In the video, Chopra said:
“Tell me we are announcing the Oscar nominations without telling me we are announcing Oscar nominations.”
After Jonas reminded her she had already said it, she continued:
“Well, that’s good enough. We are announcing the Oscar nominations.“
Then Chopra released a message alongside the video that is as funny as the video; in the caption section, Chopra asked the Academy if she has a chance to announce the Oscar nominations solo, and continued:
“😂 Just kidding, love you @nickjonas! We are so excited to be announcing the #OscarNoms on Monday.”
Meanwhile, Jonas uploaded the same video, and then added a caption that reads:
“So excited to announce that @priyankachopra and I will be announcing the #OscarNoms on Monday, March 15th at 5:19AM PDT! Watch it live on youtube.com/Oscars”
The couple will announce the nominees for all 23 categories in a two-part presentation through Oscars.com, Oscars.org, and related digital platforms. Click here to view the original announcement.
