<p class="has-medium-font-size">In a recent interview, the guys were asked to choose which group member is &#8220;always late.&#8221; While most of the guys chose Jordan&#8217;s brother, Jonathan &#8211; Donnie also chose Joey. When Joey noticed, he grimaced and said &#8220;I am developing a premeditated lateness.&#8221; Donnie chimes in, &#8220;Joe learns the dance moves quickest so he will show up and learn everything in the concert in 20 minutes.&#8221;</p>



<p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>3. Met His Wife at Work</strong></p>
