Though Nick Jonas has been in the entertainment industry since he was eight years old, it is this latest project that seems to mark a turning point for him. Starting last week, Jonas took over the starring role of J. Pierrepont Finch in the Broadway version of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, a part previously played by Glee’s Darren Criss and, before that, Daniel Radcliffe. No longer relegated to being a “teen heartthrob,” Jonas’ new leading man status also coincides with another signifier: at 19, he is technically an adult. The former boy band-er, who currently lives alone in New York, appears to be deftly navigating a terrain that has mired many other young performers (including some of his famous exes). Perhaps it’s his well-publicized faith or his close-knit family that have allowed Jonas to steer clear of typical Hollywood pitfalls. Or perhaps it’s his intense focus and ambition. On a morning before his show, Jonas spoke to PAPERMAG about these ambitions, being nervous on opening night and whether he’s ever wanted to be a normal 19-year-old going to college.

How did your role in How to Succeed… come about?
I saw it and signed on board to do it. It was a fun show and the music was great and the dancing, the way each of the scenes play out was all brilliant to me and I was immediately on board.

How does preparing for How to Succeed… compare to preparing for concert tours?
It’s definitely a different kind of preparation for this show. Obviously the rehearsal process is way different to setting up a tour in the sense that I’m doing a lot of dancing in the show, playing out scenes and doing all that, which is not something we do when we’re on tour. But also I’ve noticed my diet’s changed a lot. There are things I’m not eating so my voice will be in top form.

Did you not have to alter your diet when you were playing shows with the Jonas Brothers?
It’s a different kind of singing, I’d say. It’s really a different kind of vocal stamina.

How so?
The placement of the voice for pop music and then for theater [is different]. I have a distinctly different sounding theater voice than I do for the kind of band-oriented stuff I do. It’s not that my voice is different by any means but it’s just a different placement in my diaphragm. [I need to] stay healthy for eight shows a week.

Have you–or will you–get into any regimens or routines during the show? Do you have any pre-show rituals?
Definitely. I learned a lot of good warm-ups and stuff when I was over in London doing Les Mis [Les Misérables]. There are a couple different melodies that I’ll sing to get my voice warmed up, all with “ah” and “ooh” sounds. My favorite one though is actually [sings] “And the way you look tonight.” Just singing that out.

So I was talking to your co-star, Michael Urie, and one of the things we were talking about was how a lot of Jonas Brothers fans seem to be coming to How to Succeed… Have you noticed a difference in the audience at all between this show and Jonas Brothers concerts? Are you reaching a broader or older fanbase?
I think that it’s definitely been pretty diverse. There’s sort of the classic theatergoer crowd along with new people that are interested in me and Michael’s takes on these roles and, yeah, there are the Jonas fans. They’re amazing. It’s been really encouraging to see too that there are so many new faces from all different age groups at the show as well.

Do you ever get nervous onstage?
I didn’t think I would and then on the first night–I start the show and I basically am sitting down on this lift, being pulled up 25-30 feet up in the air and that’s how I start the show as a window washer. I was getting set to start the show and just in that moment I got a bit nervous and I hadn’t been nervous all day so it’s kind of a shock. Once I got in the show and past the first couple minutes, it was fine.

Do you plan to continue acting after How to Succeed… wraps up or will you go back to recording music?
I think that I like an even balance of both. I started my journey doing both–singing and acting. And dancing as a kid. And to come back and do that now is great. I’ve had some acting opportunities the last year, which were so much fun in Last Man Standing and Smash. There’s been more and more acting opportunities and if there are roles that feel right and that I can take on and tackle, then I’d love to get more into it.

Would you want to do some more TV or film or theater?
I think that it all depends. My opinion is that it’s just gotta be the right role [whether] it’s a theater role or television or film. I’m very passionate about music and I’m sure when I wrap up this run on Broadway, I’ll want to jump back in to music but if the right role comes up and I feel like it’s something that I’m really passionate about then I’ll definitely consider it.

Do you have any dream roles?
There are a few. What’s been really interesting is I’ve sort of had to adjust my list now because one of them was Marius and I was able to play Marius last year [in Les Misérables] and one of them was Finch and now I’ve been able to do that. As far as the rest go, I think that a revival of Miss Saigon would be great [and me] playing Chris.

Do you think that you and your brothers will record again?
We’ve already started thinking about the next step for the brothers. The great thing about the theater schedule is I’ve got the days free for the most part when I’m not doing press. I’ve got the days free to create and I’ve set up a home studio in my apartment here, which is fun. I get a fair amount of work done in here without having to travel. You may even see some new Jonas material out sooner than you think.

What kind of music do you have on your iPod?
I’ve been listening to The Beatles. The White Album has kind of been my main deal. I think it’s maybe because it’s within the period of the show we’re doing and also just because it’s amazing music. And then the way I have my dressing room set up, I kind of have a nice, homey vibe. It kind of reminds me of Texas, which is where I was born and where we have a family farm. I’ve been listening to Braid Paisley.

Are you a country fan?
Yeah, to a degree. I love a lot of country songs and I think that Brad Paisley is one of the best overall musicians and performers I’ve seen. I think his song writing is incredible. So I listen to that and it gets me hyped up as well.

So another thing I wanted to talk about is the fact that you’re 19 and while many people your age are studying and partying in college, you’re starring on Broadway. Have you ever wanted a more typical young adulthood and did you ever want to go to college?
I’ve been really fortunate to be able to do what I love without an education and I definitely did consider–and even went as far as visit–a couple colleges and think about whether or not that was what I wanted to do. This was probably about two years ago. I finished school a little early–I finished when I was 16 so I had two years to consider [college]. I would’ve wanted to go to college to study English as well as Journalism actually. It didn’t really turn out–that’s not the way things went for me. Things were kind of different because that was in the heat of things for my brothers and I and it’s been an amazing life since then so I’m really grateful. It’s always in the back of my mind that maybe one day I will go [to college] but for now I’m content where I am. There’s no regrets. Life’s too short.

Do you live alone in New York or with friends or family?
I’m completely alone, [it's just] me and my dog, Elvis, just hanging out.

What kind of dog is Elvis?
He’s a Golden Retriever.

Will you be watching the Super Bowl this weekend?
I’m a big Giants fan. I think I’m the most excited person in the entire world. We have a matinee that day so we’ll all be able to watch. I think I’m sort of having a bit of a get-together here in my apartment with my castmates.

What are you most excited about when it comes to the future?
Following the show, I [want to] continue to record and release music. [My brothers and I] want to experiment with different things and take that journey that we never really did take, which is trying a million different things and seeing what sticks and going with that. I think that we’ve all sort of grown so much as people in these last two and a half years that we haven’t really been doing much together. Our musical taste has changed so much. When the time does come for us to get back together, it’ll be the first record we’ve made where we’re all men and we can really dig in and have fun with it.

Although Nick Jonas does not show up in the pilot episode of “Smash” airing on Monday, we are going to see the Jonas Brothers member making an appearance on the show during its first season.

Nick has already managed to impress one person on the show with a significant amount of Broadway experience behind her — series star Megan Hilty. Speaking per Ryan Seacrest, Hilty (who plays stage veteran Ivy on the show) says that she was more than impressed watching Jonas do his thing:

“I had to keep reminding myself that he was 19, because he was just posed and really on top of his game. He’s so professional and he was a lot of fun on top of it.”

Ironically enough, Jonas is actually now back on Broadway starring in “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.” Meanwhile, the premiere of “Smash” is set to air Monday night on NBC.

Broadway’s “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” has a new leading man — Nick Jonas.

The 19-year-old, who rose to fame along with his brothers, Kevin and Joe, as part of the Jonas Brothers group, has taken over Daniel Radcliffe’s role in the popular show. However, it’s not the first time Jonas has hit the Great White Way; he began performing on stage when he was just seven years old, and has appeared in shows including “Annie Get Your Gun” and “Les Misérables”

The entertainer, who has sold 20 million albums worldwide as part of the Jonas Brothers, talked to The Huffington Post about his new theater gig and his feelings about moving past his boy band fame.

You just started your tenure as J. Pierrepont Finch in “How To Succeed.” How’s it going so far?
I just finished my first week and I’m feeling more and more confident each night I do the show. I’m just excited to grow in this role.

Was starring in a Broadway show a big dream of yours?
I actually started off in theater as a kid. I did four Broadway shows in New York, so it’s been a dream to come back to Broadway now and to be playing this role, one of the few leading roles for a young man.

You’re going to be in the show until July. Are you going to play in the Broadway softball league?
I love baseball. We definitely want to get our team together, and I think there’s already been talk of me being the team captain.

Would you rather win a Tony or the softball league trophy?
I think a Tony would definitely be first. I love softball, but it’s not nearly as important to me as maybe a Tony would be.

Is it nice to be out of the Jonas Brothers spotlight, at least for a little while?
I’d say that it’s been a really interesting journey, the past five or six years, coming now to this place where we can take on different projects, things that we’re passionate about, and focus on those things. Then one day we’ll come back together as a group and continue to record, that will be great. But it has been nice to sort of step back and do some different things.

It must be great to be able to walk down the street without paparazzi following you.
It’s been a great season of sort of really finding some independence and doing my own thing. I can walk the street here in New York; I wear a hat, a scarf and a big jacket and I’m usually fine. There are moments when it becomes more interesting than others, and I should probably have somebody with me just to help. The fans who do approach me are so supportive and excited for me to be in this show.

Did you and your brothers ever get on each other’s nerves while working together?
We’re brothers, so there were moments here and there, but we actually are each other’s best friends. We have quite a close relationship. We’re very thankful and feel very blessed to have that.

SOURCE

In an interview with The Huffington Post, Jonas revealed that he is not often hassled by paparazzi in New York and can live a somewhat normal life when not on stage.

“It’s been a great season of sort of really finding some independence and doing my own thing. I can walk the street here in New York; I wear a hat, a scarf and a big jacket and I’m usually fine,” he explained.

“There are moments when it becomes more interesting than others, and I should probably have somebody with me just to help. The fans who do approach me are so supportive and excited for me to be in this show.”

The Jonas Brothers singer went on to reveal that he has enjoyed taking time out to work on solo endeavours, saying: “I’d say that it’s been a really interesting journey, the past five or six years, coming now to this place where we can take on different projects, things that we’re passionate about, and focus on those things.

“Then one day we’ll come back together as a group and continue to record, that will be great. But it has been nice to sort of step back and do some different things.”

It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost a year since the hit revival of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying opened on Broadway (and a year since we held a ticket giveaway for the show). Harry Potter Daniel Radcliffe has vacated his role as J. Pierrepont Finch for bigger and better things (an upcoming creepy looking motion picture it seems) and teeny-bopper heartthrob Nick Jonas has taken over the reins of the lead part, much to the excitement of thirteen-year-olds everywhere.

Rounding out the rest of the cast is Beau Bridges as J. B. Biggley and Rose Hemingway as Rosemary Pilkington. Michael Urie, of Ugly Betty fame, plays the scheming Bud Frump, and Anderson Cooper still narrates (prerecorded unfortunately).

If you were at the newly renovated Frames Bowling Lounge in NYC last night, you may have gotten a glimpse of some big stars, including teen heart throb turned Broadway star Nick Jonas. Jonas and his girlfriend Aussie model and singer Delta Goodrem grabbed dinner before hanging out at the bowling lanes.

Also bowling, mingling, and goofing around were actors Hunter Parrish (“Weeds”), Dulé Hill (Psych), Corbin Bernsen (“Psych”), and Mekhi Phifer (“ER” and “8 Mile”) toting their best game for the Broadway Show Bowling League.

If you want to actually hear the songs in Broadway’s “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” you may have a problem. When teen heartthrob Nick Jonas took over the role of J. Pierrepont Finch (from Daniel Radcliffe) he brought throngs of girl fans with him, hence inciting squeals and screams any time he opens his mouth. But at least you can still watch him dance. The high-kicking, hip-swiveling number, “Brotherhood of Man” is “really intense,” Jonas tells The Post. But Jonas, the youngest member of sibling trio the Jonas Brothers, is no stranger to the stage, having played Tiny Tim in “A Christmas Carol” when he was just 8. When the 19-year-old isn’t creating mass hysteria in Midtown, he’s in Chelsea, sipping lattes or chowing down on pulled pork. This is his New York.

1. Umpire Rock, Central Park
“There’s this area I used to go as a kid. It’s just this big humongous rock. As a kid, I thought it was Mount Everest or something. Even now, when I go back to it, I’m taken back to being a little boy. It’s an incredible spot.”

2. Ports Coffee and Tea Co., 251 W. 23rd St., between Seventh and Eighth avenues
“It’s a really cool hole-in-the-wall coffee shop and the espresso is really good. Sometimes espresso is just, like, a sting — like not a great taste, just a shot of caffeine. This one actually has a great taste. I walked in the other day and asked for a quad latte, and the guy looked at me and said, ‘Ah it’s one of those days, isn’t it?’, I said. ‘Yes, sir, it is.’?”

3. Beacon Theatre, 2124 Broadway, at 74th Street
“I love the Beacon Theatre. I played there three nights when I was on tour with my band [Nick Jonas & the Administration] in 2010. It’s just a great theater and I really felt like the sound in there was unlike any other venue in New York City. It’s so historical and has a great vibe.”

4. Marriott Marquis, 1535 Broadway
“I take all my friends from out of town there. It gives you the whole view of Times Square without having to go to a rooftop or be right in the thick of it. I usually order a latte. I’m a coffee guy in general.”

5. RUB, 208 W. 23rd St., between Seventh and Eighth avenues
“I was really craving barbecue [one] night, so I went on Google and looked up the best barbecue spot in NYC and this place came up. It’s really good. I’ve been there a few times since — I watched the Giants game there a few weeks ago, which was fun. I get the pulled pork sandwich with some cornbread and hush puppies. That’s my main deal.”

6. Odin, 199 Lafayette St., between Broome and Kenmare streets
“It’s a great spot. The staff is great and the vibe of the store is really cool and the selection is incredible. It’s sort of out of the way, too. I just stumbled upon it. I got a couple of cool button-down shirts and some corduroy pants. Since I look up reviews online so much, I really should write a review for them. I guess this counts.”

7. John’s Pizzeria, 260 W. 44th St., between Broadway and Eighth Avenue
“I’ve loved John’s Pizza ever since I was 8 years old. It’s a special place for my brothers and I; we did our album release party there in 2008. They shut it down for us and let us bring all our friends and we had a celebration. This guy Pete, who works there, has become a good friend and he’s been really good to us over the years. The pizza there is the best in New York.”

8. Chisholm Larsson Gallery, 145 Eighth Ave., between 17th and 18th streets
“It’s a vintage movie and memorabilia poster shop. I really love vintage movie posters. They have a bunch of hand-painted ones from the ’60s. The other day I grabbed a piece from the ’20s; a really cool baseball picture. It’s an amazing painting of a guy on first base about to run to second .?.?. it’s got a really nice charm to it. My place doesn’t have any pictures on the wall just yet so I’m in the process of decorating.”

9. Highpoint Bistro & Bar, 216 Seventh Ave., between 22nd and 23rd streets
“What I’ve realized is that once you start making a conscious effort to not go somewhere because you wanna go there so much, that’s when you know it’s really good. I’ve had to start going to other places just so I don’t go there every night. I’ve brought all my friends. ‘Not Your Mother’s Meatloaf’ is the dish to go with. It’s the most unbelievable meatloaf you’ve ever had in your life.”

10. Yankee Stadium, 1 E. 161st St., the Bronx
“I’m a huge Yankees fan, I like both the old and the new stadium equally. I grew up in New Jersey, so I was able to make it to a bunch of games growing up and I have fond memories of sitting in the very, very, very last seat of the first stadium and just screaming my head off and going crazy. Now I sit a little closer to the field, but wherever I sit, I’m still going to enjoy the game.”

Happy New Year Everyone!

I hope all of you had as wonderful a Holiday Season as I did. Spending time with family and friends is always something I treasure.

I am now in New York preparing and rehearsing for my opening night in The Broadway Musical How To Succeed In Business. Rehearsals are going well and I am excited for Opening Night to happen later this month. If you’re going to be in New York, and would like to see the show, tickets are available thru www.ticketmaster.com (and also through the official website of the broadway production at http://www.howtosucceedbroadway.com/).

SMASH, another project I worked on earlier this year is getting ready to air after this year’s Super Bowl. It will be on NBC, so be sure to check your local listings for air times. The show is about a production team of directors, song writers and producers putting a new musical on Broadway.

As my time with Bayer is coming to an end, I wanted to express that it has been both an honor and privilege to work with such a great group of people. Bayer is truly a leader when it comes to diabetes care and helping people around the world with their day to day management. Having an outlet like NicksSimpleWins.com to share my story with all of you and more importantly to hear your stories about living with diabetes has been both enlightening and inspiring. Together, if we continue to work hard, share our stories and educate people about our disease I am confident we will find a cure. So keep up the hard work, I look forward to seeing all of you soon.

Nick Jonas had a lot on the line Tuesday night, taking over the role of J. Pierpont Finch from Daniel Radcliffe and Darren Criss. In fact, he was drinking tea throughout his Cambio Live chat on Monday to make sure his voice stayed in tip top shape. But that didn’t stop the 19-year-old from signing autographs and posing for pictures with fans waiting outside the stage door at the Al Hirschfield Theatre in New York on opening night.

Some of the fans traveled from as far away as Brazil to wish Nick luck on his six-month run in the show. Nick’s entire family was there as well including brothers Kevin, Joe and Frankie, parents Kevin Sr. and Denise and his girlfriend Delta Goodrem.

Nick spent about 20 minutes with fans before AND after the show to make sure he got to say hi to everyone who had traveled to see him. Were you one of the ones there on opening night? Let us know your Nick Jonas experience in the comments below.

Nick Jonas sits down for a chat with host Robin Roberts at Good Morning America on Thursday morning in New York City.

The 19-year-old actor also made an appearance on Live! with Kelly before heading out with a warm black scarf around his neck.

Nick shared in his GMA interview, “The thing about this show, specifically, is that it’s one of those shows where a young man can lead this show and it’s very rare for a Broadway show. I’m so blessed to be in the position I’m in and to have taken over for Daniel [Radcliffe] and Darren [Criss] both, who were in the show before me. To know that so many other actors have played this role is such an honor. It’s a fun show.”
