“Someday” (The Hunchback of Notre Dame)
Before he was a Jonas Brother, Nick was a Broadway kid, playing Chip in Beauty and the Beast at age nine. At the 2002 Gypsy of the Year Competition, Jonas sang “Someday” from The Hunchback of Notre Dame alongside co-stars Sarah Litzinger (Belle) and Christopher Sieber (Gaston). Scroll to the one-minute mark to hear little Nick sing. Aww!


“Lovebug” (MTV Video Music Awards)
In 2008, the Jonas Brothers wowed viewers around the world in their first MTV Video Music Awards appearance. As Nick sings “Lovebug” with brothers Joe and Kevin, the venue transforms from an intimate jam session into a full-fledged rock concert, complete with hundreds of screaming fans.


“It Takes Two” (Hairspray)
Jonas caused quite a stir at the Hollywood Bowl as Link Larkin in the summer 2011 Hairspray concert. Jonas appeared alongside original Tony-winning cast members Harvey Fierstein (Edna) and Marissa Jaret Winokur (Tracy).

I Get That a Lot (CBS)
In 2010, Jonas played his most challenging role to date: Bradley, a sales clerk at Forever 21. In the reality prank show I Get That a Lot, the boy band frontman fooled his fans by donning a disguise and heading to the mall.


“Empty Chairs at Empty Tables” (Les Miserables)
After playing Gavroche in Les Miserables on Broadway in 2003, Jonas returned to play Marius in the musical's 25th anniversary concert at the O2 in London in 2010. Click below to hear Jonas' take on the moving ballad “Empty Chairs at Empty Tables.”
