Once a year like clockwork, this foreign born A-/B+ list actress throws out the wanting to have a family line for some random reporter to try and make her come across as more relatable.

If someone offered her the leading role in a summer blockbuster if she got pregnant, then she would do it, otherwise it is not happening.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas: “I’m Very Excited About the Future. I’m Terrified of It Too”

Priyanka, which she prefers that I call her here, is readying for a party, gathering her family, in-laws, and Hollywood friends for the first major event at her home in the San Fernando Valley. The house itself is a major event, by the way: a 20,000-square-foot home with a two-lane bowling alley, an indoor basketball court, a movie theater, and an infinity swimming pool that gives way to a gorgeous view of the distant hills. The party will be a Diwali celebration as well as a housewarming. Priyanka and her husband of three years, Nick Jonas, bought the place for a reported $20 million at the end of 2019, just before the pandemic forced everyone inside. They spent their first six months together doing what some of us did in those early, unsteady days: eating pizza every night, watching movies at four in the morning, sleeping in. Since then, though, they’ve had to be largely apart, working in different parts of the world. “I want to be at home,” Priyanka tells me. “I’ve been away for almost a year now.” At the moment, her husband is occupied upstairs. “We both have a shoot today. So that’s the thing about this house—both him and I have had 20-year careers, and I think we finally built a home that accommodates our individual lives.”

Priyanka admits that her path has left her with some bruises and scars. “I think maybe that’s why I’m becoming a lot more introverted as I go along on this journey in the entertainment business now,” she tells me. “I’m starting to protect myself a lot more because I realize how much it takes out of you. It takes a part of your soul, constantly trying to make sure that you say the right thing, do the right thing, dress the right way, not make a mistake, not trip because the whole world is going to watch. Or not fall when you’re walking up on a red carpet or say something wrong or have a bad fucking day.”

Priyanka knows 2022 is going to bring change. “I feel like I am at a precipice of reinvention,” she says. “What is the new me? I’m very excited about the future. I’m terrified of it too. Change is always scary. But I’ve done it multiple times in my life.” – Source
