‘They’re laughably, toe-curlingly lame’: When Sophie Turner roasted Joe Jonas and his band

Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas are in the middle of a separation, as they go through a very public divorce. But that’s not news to anyone. To lighten the mood we’re going back to the wonderful world of…two years ago (2021). The scene was set, as multiple celebrities came and took multiple digs at the Jonas Brothers because that is what a show called The Family Roast of Jonas Brothers, entailed. But the most ruthless jabs came from the brother’s wives themselves. Especially Sophie Turner. 

Sophie Turner roasted Joe Jonas

The Game of Thornes actress started her set strong, as she mentioned the only reason she made it to the show was because she was told in “America, big family gatherings are where you say the meanest possible things to your family.” And let us warn you, she took it to heart. Turner talked about the Jonas Brothers’ purity rings phase. The actress admitted, “No, the rings weren’t a good idea. Yes, as a gesture, they’re laughably, toe-curlingly lame.” She continued to explain that the purity rings were about faith, and setting an example. 

The then-25-year-old got down to it. She said, “Look, Joe Jonas wasn’t just sticking his fingers in some dumb metal rings. He was sticking his fingers in costars, actresses, and even a supermodel or two.” She went to compare the purity rings to Cinderella, saying, “I mean, Joe tried to find a match for his purity rings a few times, but finally, the finger fit me.” And if you think the joke ended there, you’ve got another thing coming. Turner got to the actual punchline, adding “It was also like Cinderella because most of the girls he tried it with were under contract to Disney.”

After the lethal shots at her then-husband, Turner got to talking about the whole band. At first, the joke came wrapped in a compliment, as Turner claimed, “What I love about you is that no matter how successful you guys got, you always stayed true to your New Jersey roots.” She continued, “I know you guys are from New Jersey because you’re all sopranos…” And this is where it took a sharp U-turn, as Sophie added, “I’m kidding. You guys don’t have any vocal range.”

Well, from the looks of it, Turner was told it was a roast, and safe to say, the Queen in the North came to cook.
