The Jonas Brothers were honoured on Monday with their own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles, California in what turned out to be a complete family affair.
The multi-platinum pop stars, Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas, who formed the Jonas Brothers in 2005, were joined by their parents, brother Frankie and to delight of many, their wives Sophie Turner, Danielle Jonas and Priyanka Chopra.
The ceremony saw the long-awaited introduction of Chopra and husband Nick Jonas’s daughter Malti Marie, who bounced and smiled from her mother’s lap throughout the ceremony.
"You are the calm and the crazy, the rock in the storm and I love being married to you," Nick Jonas said to his actress wife from the podium. "It's the greatest gift. I love being a parent with you."
The youngest of the brothers concluded his remarks by saying, "Malti Marie, I can't wait to come back here with you in 15 years and embarrass you in front of your friends."
Kevin Jonas spoke thanked his fans and his wife – and his brothers.
"Danielle, my beautiful wife. I love you so much. I could not have done this without you," he said. "Your support for the past 15 years — you've seen us through all of it … thank you for everything."
Referring to his two children, he said, "Alena, Valentina, this is a pretty cool moment, don't you think? This is cool, but you two are my brightest stars."
Joe Jonas took the mic next and thanked Turner, calling her his "partner in crime" He also used the moment to shout out his two children.
"Daddy loves you to the moon and back," he said.
Over the years, the Jonas Brothers have dedicated themselves to philanthropic projects.
Most recently, the group headlined this summer’s Global Citizen festival, an annual music event supporting efforts to end extreme poverty.

Pharaoh's curse
British aristocrat Lord Carnarvon, who funded the expedition to find the Tutankhamun tomb, died in a Cairo hotel four months after the crypt was opened.
He had been in poor health for many years after a car crash, and a mosquito bite made worse by a shaving cut led to blood poisoning and pneumonia.
Reports at the time said Lord Carnarvon suffered from “pain as the inflammation affected the nasal passages and eyes”.
Decades later, scientists contended he had died of aspergillosis after inhaling spores of the fungus aspergillus in the tomb, which can lie dormant for months. The fact several others who entered were also found dead withiin a short time led to the myth of the curse.

Teachers' pay - what you need to know
Pay varies significantly depending on the school, its rating and the curriculum. Here's a rough guide as of January 2021:
- top end schools tend to pay Dh16,000-17,000 a month - plus a monthly housing allowance of up to Dh6,000. These tend to be British curriculum schools rated 'outstanding' or 'very good', followed by American schools
- average salary across curriculums and skill levels is about Dh10,000, recruiters say
- it is becoming more common for schools to provide accommodation, sometimes in an apartment block with other teachers, rather than hand teachers a cash housing allowance
- some strong performing schools have cut back on salaries since the pandemic began, sometimes offering Dh16,000 including the housing allowance, which reflects the slump in rental costs, and sheer demand for jobs
- maths and science teachers are most in demand and some schools will pay up to Dh3,000 more than other teachers in recognition of their technical skills
- at the other end of the market, teachers in some Indian schools, where fees are lower and competition among applicants is intense, can be paid as low as Dh3,000 per month
- in Indian schools, it has also become common for teachers to share residential accommodation, living in a block with colleagues
