Telling the story for the first time on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Nick revealed that he accepted a ‘weed lollipop’ (which he said he never normally does) from one of his friends’ wives as they celebrated his single release.

He explained: “Enjoyed the night. Felt great. Went to bed feeling fine. Woke up the next day…everything’s in slow motion. I’m like, ‘oh no, this is happening’.”

Revealing that he tried to refresh with a nap and a shower, he added: “I call down to my girlfriend who’s in the kitchen, ‘Babe, I need some bread, I need some coffee. Something!”

After picking out his red suit, Nick then got in the car, admitting: “I’m trying to focus, get in the right mind frame, I’m feeling better and then, out of nowhere I get a NARB,” which is code for a ‘Non-Apparent Reason Boner’.

Nick’s troubles didn’t end with him having to cover his NARB with his hands on the red carpet though, with Jimmy playing a clip of the singer struggling to make a joke on stage.

Nick recalled: “I walked off stage, I looked at my manager, I was like, 'Do you think anybody knew?'”

They do now!
