Sometimes, life in show business comes beautifully full circle. This season on NBC’s The Voice, country legend Reba McEntire surprised fans by choosing Nick Jonas as her team advisor — a collaboration that carries more history than most realized. More than two decades ago, a young Nick, then just eight years old, appeared alongside Reba in a 2001 production of Annie Get Your Gun in Nashville.
To mark the occasion, the two stars recreated their original photo from that set — and the internet can’t get enough of it.
In the side-by-side images, Reba beams with that same unmistakable warmth, while Nick, now a global star himself, stands beside her in a near-identical pose. What was once a sweet backstage snapshot between a Broadway icon and a talented child actor has now become a touching reminder of how far both have come — and how music continues to bridge generations.
“I remember that day like it was yesterday,” Reba shared in a behind-the-scenes clip from The Voice. “Nick was just a little fella with the biggest heart — and look at him now. It’s such a joy getting to work with him again after all these years.”
Nick added with a smile, “Reba taught me so much about professionalism and storytelling back then. Being here with her again feels like coming home.”
Their reunion on The Voice isn’t just nostalgic — it’s symbolic. Two artists from different eras, both shaped by discipline, humility, and the love of performing, now standing side by side once again.
As one fan wrote on social media: “From Annie Get Your Gun to The Voice — some duets never fade, they just grow up.”
