Personally I don't like it. Priyanka Chopra is Indian and Nick Jonas is American. They don't fit. They have different background and cultures and religions. Everything is different. She is brown he is white. I am not racist but for some reason they don't look good together. Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas wedding
Having dated women from different ethnic backgrounds, including an Indian girl whose name was Priya (it's a very common name in India), I have no problems with something like this. No, my point of contention is the 10-year age gap... and the marriage itself. I'm not in favor of marriage at all, but I digress...
I imagine you think they don't fit together because their backgrounds are too different, based purely on their ethnic identities. That's your opinion and you are entitled to it, even if it isn't politically-correct. Is it racist, according to all the other commentators? On some level, yes, particularly if it is of the nature that is inclined to believe that people should only breed within their own races, for the sake of racial "purity"; that's how you end up with groups like the Ku Klux Klan. If, however, you are more concerned with how little you think they have in common, based on what you assume to be their completely-different upbringings, that might be a fair point--although without any actual proof that that is the case, you run into problems of stereotyping.
My point is, don't be so quick to rush to judgment. Even if they are of two different races, they might have more in common than you think.

Thank you very much for the comment. You said your opinion in a polite way and you are open to communication. Congratulations really. I hope more gagers here would be like you.
They look amazing together! I think they make a great couple :) And just because you come from different backgrounds, cultures and religions doesn't mean you can't have a meaningful relationship. My dad is Hungarian and Catholic my mom is American and Christan and they have been married for 32 years :)

It is not way more difficult than marry someone of your country for example?
The problem is not their colour they look like Mom and son. But there are so much couple like this. I hope they get well. They are beautiful also but the age Gap really look much not like 9-10. Plus Nick wasn't so famous before his marriage. İt is weird.
Its funny that most people DONT really says anything negative towards the married couple" looks like 'dad and daughter"' when an older man marries a younger lady who is 10 to 30 years younger than him. There have been many marriages of older men and younger ladies. You just had to discount their love union due to their 'age gap', an older woman with a younger husband with that phrase, while young ladies lusting after older men like yourself.
Age gap isn't important for me. But their age gap doesn't like 9-10. I dont have to like their relationship. I think they love each other and I hope they get well. But they are not my idols. And dont act like it is double standart. So many people called a woman as gold digger when that woman dates with older man. Society dont treat that women well too.
@Neotunia2u, i was waiting for someone to shuffle the deck and finally pull out the double standard card! 😂 by the way, rationally it would be more viable the other way around, and thats no double standard just a rational consideration of natural differences.
I was talking about the" looks" phrase you made. That's all. Many men look older than their wives and it surely looked like his daughter too but no one really say anything like you did about her and him. Most rather to say"golddigger as" their basis for the insult/disaproval. You don't know what goes on behind closed doors between the love birds and the important thing is that they are happy and in love.
He seems way to intellegent and emotionally deep to be with her. She is pretty and im, not saying she is dumb but she juat doesn't seem like she could connect w him. Nick seems like his type would be a nerd who is also outspoken, who doesn't where a lot of makeup. And they could just, connect with their minds. He was my fav jonas. Now joe is my fav

I am glad someone else feels this is a mismatch even if the reasons are different. thank you for sharing
i think it would sound rasist to people but i see what your saying, and no its really not. I commented about this on someones opinion who said it was racist
She is older than him, but I personally think that she is out of his league. but it will be neither the first nor the last mixed marriage, since practically more than half of the stars are ultra mixed, mean that they are born of marriage identical to these two

I don't think we see many Indian white marriages ?
They are so cute together! And I loved that they brought both their cultural backgrounds into the wedding. I think the mindset races shouldn't mix is something that should stay in the past.
Lol you are painting the donkey to make it look like a zebra.
Racial Segregation: “Racial segregation provides a means of maintaining the economic advantages and superior social status of the politically dominant group, and in recent times it has been employed primarily by white populations to maintain their ascendancy over other groups by means of legal and social colour bars.“
Are you advocating ethnic preservation because white men are going extinct? There is no such thing as a “pure” white man to begin with.
The last person to advocate racial hierarchy, racial segregation and ethnic preservation was Hitler. And he ended up killing millions of Jews because of this dangerous ideology.
When someone love deeply from heart ♥ country, skin colour, cultures or religion not a matter in marriage and both looks fabulous so wait for both cute kids stop thinking negative dear sister
Dear sister sure nick Jonas see something special in Priyanka otherwise you know better in America lots of girls present with beauty like angels 😇 not only white but too much attractive beauty with attractive physical appearance.. And personally I like Indian girls specially in terms of Beauty and physical appearance and also indian girls very kind in nature with traditional cloths like saree or lehenga
Yes and the main thing is understanding sure both have good understanding and it's modern world sure both knows each other from heart ♥ and both honeymoon give a good news and a cute kid soon 😊😊
He was famous when I was little. I never liked him because him and his brothers were ridiculous on stage. I always listened to more serious bands. And also every single girl at my school liked them and this is a reason to push me away lol
If you believe I am jealous because he got married no you are wrong. I don't give a damn. I would prefer to marry an American because I believe they would make a better matching couple? For example someone his age American and famous would be perfect for him. Anyways I had this idea and when I saw that picture somw days ago I was thinking how mis matched they are
You stated that she is brown and he is white and then said that for some reason they don't look good together. What skin color have to do with that?
Then you said she is Indian and he is from the USA, claiming that they don't fit. Only because they are from different countries with different cultures?
Maybe you should look up the definition of racism and xenophobia before going any further.
Some guys here clarified it no need to look. And yet I don't see any racism here. Did I say that one of them is inferior? No. I just said they have many differences, a huge gap that is difficult to fulfill. it would be easier if they married an Indian and American each one.
well they are not so foreign in terms of life belief, they are both religious no alcohol drugs piggies permitted and he remained a virgin with his ring for a good while. his family has religious values etc. he is white she is brown. well my dad is white and my mum is Indian guess what? they look great together , they made two healthy and pretty daughters (hehe) my mum and dad had different religions and that was all ok culture and background difference is what makes cities like London a blessing for people to meet fall in love and discovering what life has to offer. love is blind to jewellery, appearances etc , its a story of two hearts who meets , that is it love has absolutely no logic. you got Ryan gosling and his brown wife too , prince harry and markle , my parents , lol relax , you probably just wish you were his wife good day !
“She is brown and he’s white” “not racist”. Well yes you are, you are saying you have a problem with it. Your next issue is their religions. That’s a personal issue for couples not you to wade in on. My brother is married to a Hindu, would you like to poke your nose in there? They aren’t celebrities so it’s not as fun but equally intrusive and disrespectful.
You might want to read up on a group that I think you’ll like, they are called the Kool Kids Klan (KKK for short). Check them out!
I'm a white American who has exclusive dated Indian women (not really by choice, that's just how it worked out), and I know what you mean. Like it's not even a bad thing that they are together, it's just like... Why?
I will explain. There are some here who come from races that are usually bullied and they believe that they need to defend priyanka. so whatever others will say they attack them and call them racists. So that's with the down votes. they downvote or upvote every opinion here lol. as for the upvotes one is mine obviously and the other two random ones
My girlfriend's hero is Priyanka, so I definitely see the love people have for her. My girlfriend was especially happy to see her with a white guy (as you might imagine), but I don't get why indians are so bothered by saying that they are a bit of an odd fit. It's a very insular community, but get over yourselves?
Not only Indians say this. I am not Indian and I say this lol. hmm I think because they see what I see. The huge cultural difference. Also they might think that priyanka rejects her nationality but choosing a foreigner. that's my guess though I'm not sure. we must ask an Indian
Just out of curiosity... can you please give this post to your girlfriend? and ask her of she thinks my comment is racist? because somw people here claim it is and they get on my nerves
Tbh I know the age gap thing is cliche. But my bigger problem is why the f*** did she have a wedding registry open to the public? Like us poor people have to save $$$ and she has money and has the nerve to ask random fans and people to contribute to her wedding. Gtfoh you entitled rich people. Give to the poor instead
I remember hearing about this less than a year ago? I then saw a few months later they were serious.
Honestly this feels very PR to me, lots of Hollywood relationships are manufactured. Just very odd with the timing and press coverage, I don't know about Priyanka but with Nick, a bit ooc tbh

I will add I did in fact watch married to jonas when it aired in 2012, kinda drawn to it since an ordinary girl married into a famous family. It was interesting as a dynamic
Who gives a shit! Let people live how they want to live! Ethnicity, culture, religion, whatever - it doesn't matter if they are different and in any event it is their business! I'm sure they don't give a shit about your opinion either! And you clearly are racist or you wouldn't even think about it like that! They are just people!
I think that we don't know them personally or their relationship the way they do so it's not really right to judge them. Personally, I would never marry someone of another religion, but that's just me.
People get married everyday I don't know I dont have an opinion lol They dont make any sense to me but not because they're of different ethnicities , just I don't know their personalities seem so different and nick strikes me as kind of not as mature mentally as she is.
What now, is there a law or something that races and cultures should not mix? Both of those are man-made concepts anyway so unless mixing races or cultures goes against nature I'm perfectly fine with it. How do I know it's not against nature? Well, Nick's ancestors were just as monkey as Priyanka's and if they make babies I'm sure the babies will be humans too.

There isn't any law. I am asking your opinion as an Indian guy
I don't see how my nationality should matter here but okay. If you want an answer from that perspective, that just supports their marriage even more because the population here consists of almost every major religion in the world. You'll see Christians marrying Hindus, Muslims marrying Sikhs, Buddhists marrying Jains, etc. all the time in India. Americans, Indians, who cares? She can just get American citizenship and officially be an American if she wants. Nick can do the same in India.
I can't really give you the kind of answer you want because you're basically trying to direct my point of view in a specific direction and I'm totally against all the divisions there are in society because all they do is cause conflicts in my beliefs. Religious divisions, national divisions, racial divisions, etc. never made any good sense to me. I don't see a Christian marrying a Hindu here, I only see a human marrying another human which makes perfect sense to me.
No-one is trying to direct you lol. ok I disagree with your opinion but it's respected. I asked you specifically because you are Indian like priyanka so I wanted your point of view
There's nothing wrong with people of different backgrounds being together. Also, whose to say they don't fit? You don't know what their personal lives are like. I think you need to be more open minded. Stating you're not racist, while putting so much emphasis on keeping races separate is pretty contradictory.

I meant that different cultures is better to stay separated. Indian is a very difficult culture it's not like any thing else so it's not logical for Indians to marry people from their cultural background? I'm just saying my opinion. If you disagree you are welcome
You are entitled to your opinion. I just took issue with the way your original post was stated. I agree that they are very different cultures, but I don't think that means they cannot make it work. It's about respecting each others backgrounds and not letting such differences get in the way of their relationship. I obviously don't know them personally either, but I doubt Priyanka would be with Nick if he wasn't willing to learn, respect, and be apart of her culture. in my opinion, keeping cultures separate only creates intolerance.
the only reason why I would have an objection to them is because I think she's gorgeous and he looks a bit like a dweeb to me. But that is so minor as to be inconsequential. If they love each other and are committed, more power to them as far as I'm concerned. You tried to deny it, but you're objections were racist.
I wanted to say about the different races different cultures etc. Some people took it like I made racist comment. I never said one is above the other. I just said that they look so strange together
