Demi Lovato reunites with ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas for a ‘Camp Rock' performance
The Jonas Brothers already had fans feeling nostalgic with their new tour and then they raised those stakes with their first show.
The group kicked off their 20th anniversary tour titled JONAS20 Sunday night at MetLife Stadium in their home state of New Jersey.
The three brothers, Kevin, Joe and Nick, were on stage reminiscing about the 2008 hit Disney movie 'Camp Rock,' when they brought out the film's star, Demi Lovato.
Lovato played Mitchie Torres in the movie, the love interest of Joe Jonas's character. The pair also had a brief relationship off-screen.
Videos shared on social media showed the two performers sining songs from the movie franchise, 'This Is Me' and 'Wouldn't Change a Thing,' much to the delight of the audience.
The pair posted a video on social media.
Lovato also posted a clip of her and Jonas lip-syncing the viral clip of fellow Disney star Debby Ryan talking about meeting with the president of Disney, saying she wanted to make history.
'For the history books @joejonas,' Lovato wrote in the caption.
She is now married to musician Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes. Jonas was divorced from actress Sophie Turner in 2024.

Jimmy Kimmel's backup plan may be a move to Italy
Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel revealed he has obtained Italian citizenship. In a recent conversation for 'The Sarah Silverman Podcast,' the two comedians, who dated years ago and remain friends, discussed the state of U.S. politics and how some celebrities, including Rosie O'Donnell and Ellen DeGeneres, had moved abroad ahead of President Donald Trump's second term. 'A lot of people I know are thinking about where are they going to get citizenship,' Silverman said. 'I did get Italian citizenship,' Kimmel responded. 'I do have that.' 'What's going on is… as bad as you thought it was going to be, it's so much worse,' Kimmel continued. 'It's unbelievable. Like, I think it's probably even worse than he would like it to be.' Kimmel, who has been a vocal critic of Trump, said people who voted for the president should not be condemned if they have expressed subsequent regret and those on the left need to be more accepting. 'The door needs to stay open,' Kimmel said. 'If you want to change your mind, that's so hard to do. If you want to admit you were wrong, that's so hard and so rare to do, you are welcome.' 'I can't believe I voted for him three times!' Kimmel later joked. Kimmel has been on summer hiatus from hosting his nightly ABC show, but most recently was in the headlines when Trump weighed in on the cancelation of 'Late Night with Stephen Colbert.' 'I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next,' meaning to be cancelled, Trump wrote in his Truth Social post last month. Around the same time, Kimmel shared a photo from vacation in Jackson Hole, where he attended an anti-Trump protest with his family. The comedian held declaring, 'MAKE AMERICA GOOD AGAIN.' His wife, Molly McNearney, the head writer and executive producer of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' also held up a sign. It read, 'DON'T BEND THE KNEE.' By Lisa Respers France, CNN

Streaming: Ryan Coogler's Sinners hits Crave
Article content Ryan Coogler's film Sinners made a quick trip from cinemas to streaming — it's new on Crave — and, well, it's a trip indeed. Article content Coogler's creative journey started with his first feature Fruitvale Station (2013, Apple TV+) starred Michael B. Jordan as Oscar Grant, an ex-con attempting to rebuild his life. It's based on a true story, with Coogler striving to humanize Grant in the 24 hours before he died at the hands of the BART cop who would shoot Grant in the back. Coogler next played with the Rocky franchise with Creed (2015, Prime) before taking on one of the more masterful entries in the Marvel Universe, Black Panther (2018, Disney+). Article content Sinners feel like Coogler's most ambitious film, a long way down the line from the social realism origins of Fruitvale Station. Jordan (Coogler's most frequent collaborator) does double duty here playing twin brothers, named Smoke and Stack, who have returned to their Mississippi birthplace after scoring big, dirty money in Chicago. They buy a disused sawmill with the ambition of transforming it into a juke joint, with the help of young would-be bluesman Sammie (Miles Caton) and select members of their community. Article content The brothers anticipate trouble from the Ku Klux Klan, but nobody expects the kind of trouble delivered by Remmick (Jack O'Connell), a drifter with his own vampiric designs on the juke joint. Article content It is apparent Coogler was granted carte blanche to make the movie he wanted, which explains why it has the bravado elements of a musical as well as a Southern Gothic drama. It touches on Black history, but also Black mythology, offering its own take on the story of bluesman Robert Johnson, who purportedly sold his soul to the devil in exchange for mastery of the guitar. Article content Article content But it's a horror movie first. As such, it's a film that warrants the viewing of another film to put it in a greater context. Article content That film is the 2019 documentary Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror, now playing on the genre specialty streaming service Shudder. In it, director Xavier Burgin makes the case that the horror genre best reflects the Black experience, although not always in a positive way. Article content 'We've always loved horror,' writer-educator Tananarive Due (an executive producer of the doc) observes at the beginning of the film. 'It's just that horror, unfortunately, hasn't always loved us.' Article content The doc proceeds to demonstrate the sorrowful history of black characters in horror movies, often the first to die, and just as frequently sacrificing their lives so that the white hero may live. Scatman Crothers in The Shining is the film's example of the 'sacrificial negro' trope, double painful because the character in Stephen King's book escaped with his life. How interesting it is that Coogler pays a kind of homage to The Shining with a shot of a vampirically possessed character, as well as a scene which is essentially a replay of the blood testing scene in The Thing. ('My very first movie was The Thing,' actor Keith David proudly notes in the doc. 'And I lived all the way to the end.')
