Priyanka Chopra Wasn't Skipping The VMAs Because She Felt Like It, She Was Sick

Any time Priyanka Chopra missed out on the 2019 VMAs and ended up Photoshopping herself into a picture with partner Nick Jonas, the world wide web giggled and also her meme. Yet right now the J-Sister has shared why, exactly, she was nowhere to be noticed throughout the awards ceremony any time the Jonas Brothers took house the VMA for Best Pop Video.


In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Chopra divulged exactly why it was she ended up skipping out on the event. It was an innocent enough reason: she was sick!


"I was sick that day, which is why I couldn't go to the VMAs," she mentioned, adding that the night was supposed to be a big event for the whole family member. "It was supposed to be this fun night where all six of us got with each other because we never really get to do it that often. We all have very crazy schedules, and right now that the males are on tour, we meet because the six of us. So, this was supposed to be that fun thing." Unfortunately, that didn't happen.


"We had dinner suggested soon after, and then I was really unwell," she continued. "I think Nick felt really bad that he was there and I was unwell. I was watching it from my couch at house and once they won, just seeing his face I felt like, 'Ugh.' I should have been there, yet I was so sick, and I saw it on his face."


That explains Priyanka's somewhat cheesy Photoshopped image of her embracing Nick, especially since the other Jonas Brothers were seen kissing their respective spouses Sophie Turner and Danielle Jonas.


"That's the reason why I love technology," she mentioned. "It doesn't matter if I was there or not. The picture makes it look like I was and the world wide web would believe it." Well...Maybe not with this specific photo, although we get what you're driving at. Nevertheless hey! At least we know the whole story now.
