For PEOPLE’s Best of 2025 issue we looked back on this year in entertainment and picked out some of our highlights. From Ariana Grande, Michelle Yeoh and Cynthia Erivo’s Wicked-ly fun red carpet looks to Parker Posey on The White Lotus to Jennifer Aniston and Jim Curtis’ hard launch — 2025 was packed with memorable moments we’re sure to be talking about well after the ball drops.
As the cover stars of the Best of 2025 issue, it was only fitting to get some of Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas’ favorites too as they looked back on their epic 20th anniversary year that was filled with touring North America on their JONAS20: Greetings From Your Hometown Tour, spending time with their daughters and even catching up on some of the year’s hottest shows (Yes, even Kevin Jonas couldn’t get enough of Dr. Robby!)
What’s the best album of the year?
NICK JONAS: I don’t think it came out this year, but I discovered it this year. Ryan Beatty’s album [Calico.] So good.
KEVIN JONAS: Turnstile’s album. That was incredible to see a band doing a really unique alternative rock thing. And Role Model, that album is just awesome.
JOE JONAS: Djo. His new album is phenomenal.
Peter Yang
NICK: Oh yeah, and Joe’s album from this year [Music For People Who Believe In Love] was really good too.
JOE: Finally. Just Kidding. Thanks!
Best TV show of the year?
JOE: I just finished Black Rabbit. I thought it was so good. It’s heavy, but it’s fantastic.
NICK: We loved Four Seasons in my house… I thought it was so clever and it kind of felt like a play. It was really an enjoyable watch.
KEVIN: The Pitt. Dude, that show. I went so deep on it and so fast too. We watched the whole thing in a couple nights and it was just awesome.
Peter Yang
Best onstage moment of yours this year so far?
NICK: I think honestly, the whole day of JonasCon was pretty incredible to me. We performed six times.
KEVIN: Full sets.
NICK: They weren’t 30 minute sets. They were hour and fifteen minute long sets and it was my only day off while doing this Broadway show [The Last Five Years.] But we all carried each other and the day was just incredible.
JOE: MetLife opening night was really special for many reasons. Sharing the stage with some familiar faces and playing this venue that we’ve always dreamt of performing at. It’s a huge highlight for me.
Matt Robertson
KEVIN: Yeah, it’s both of those. I think every single night that we’ve been able to have these special guests out. Each and every performance and every audience is getting something different. And I think that that’s been really, really cool. Jesse McCartney coming out and JoJo as well at Fenway was just incredible.
What about your best moment as a dad?
NICK: I’ve had quite a few. I had a sweet moment with my daughter where she just did that little cute voice and looked up at me, I came down in a suit to go to an event — and I was having a really tough day — and she just said, ‘You look so handsome, Gaga.’ It changed my whole year. Not that I needed to hear that I was handsome, but it was just a sweet moment.
JOE: I think any morning they would run in and wake me up. I cannot pick a favorite. Or I have to pretend I’m back asleep and then they’d jump on top of me and wake me up. That’s my favorite.
KEVIN: So many, as Nick said. But I think spending this family vacation together in The Bahamas. Just having them just be completely disconnected. They didn’t pick up their iPads or their phone one time. They were so entertained and so fun. Every minute of that day, they wanted to explore a new beach or a new island. It was just incredible. To see that glow in them was really wonderful.
Peter Yang
And lastly, best day off?
JOE: I recently had a day off in Nashville with a few friends. I had this epic hangover. Thank you Chord Overstreet if you’re watching this.
KEVIN: He does that to you.
JOE: We just accidentally had the best day. We went to a honky-tonk bar and we were playing shuffleboard. We had amazing food. It was really great. It was a great day.
