"It was a huge fight in my family, actually, and my girlfriend. It was a big battle." Alex Pall revealed to Carson Daly on 97.1 AMP Radio.

"I mean my mom, she just has like 50 years on my girlfriend! My girlfriend is amazing. I wish we could all sit together, I mean honestly. But it was funny because she was like, 'Really?' and I was like, 'Uh, duh! She brought me into this world! Like, what were you expecting?'"

The DJs are nominated for three awards, including Best New Artist, Best Dance Recording, and Best Pop Duo/Group for "Closer" featuring Halsey.
