Apparently, Ellen DeGeneres Is ‘Good Tenant’ Nick Jonas’ Landlord (Video)

Pop star tells daytime host he insists on guests using coasters — smart

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

Ellen DeGeneres had pop singer Nick Jonas on her daytime show to both plug his music and check up on her tenant. Yes, Ellen is Nick’s actual landlord — thank goodness there are no holes in her sheetrock, or this appearance on Thursday’s show could have been awkward.

“You’re a good tenant, you pay rent on time,” Ellen praised Jonas before asking: “I left a lot of stuff there and are you taking care of it?”

“I think so,” Jonas replied. “I have everyone that comes in my house uses a coaster so there’s no rings on the tables, which is good.”

Apparently, the rugs and sofas are OK still too — but just in case, DeGeneres took what she called a “healthy deposit” from the pop star. That’s just smart landlordin’.
