Lovato and Jonas dated briefly in 2010, after filming the movie’s sequel, Camp Rock 2. The duo announced their split in May of that year and remain friends to this day.

“Demi and I knew going into our romantic relationship that it may not be an easy one,” Jonas told Us Weekly at the time. “I realize over the time we have shared together that I feel I care more about our friendship right now. It was my choice to breakup, but I love her as a friend. She’s been there for me when I needed her. I will continue to be her friend and be there for her.”

As the friends continued to watch the Camp Rock footage, Matthew notes, “You’re a good actress,” to which Lovato quips: “Thanks, I wasn’t acting much.”

“We had our first kiss on camera,” Lovato recalled, while noting that the two only dated for about “a month or two.”
