Nick Jonas Naked: Teen to Take It Off for the Broadway Stage?

It looks like Nick Jonas is starting to outgrow his squeaky clean Jonas Brother image! The 19-year-old singer/actor has opened up about his willingness to strip down for his art.

Nick is the next handsome young man in line to star in the hit Broadway show 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.' -- following in the footsteps of 'Glee's Darren Criss and 'Harry Potter' celebrity Daniel Radcliffe. Radcliffe, like Nick, was a child star who beefed up his acting chops on the New York stage. But that wasn't all Dan did to help mature his image. The British thespian also shocked audiences with a full-frontal nudity scene during his stint in the Broadway show 'Equus.'

Now, as Jonas preps to fill Radcliffe's shoes on the Broadway stage, inquiring minds want to know if he would ever be as bold as his predecessor and let it all hang out for his craft. When pressed by The Advocate magazine on the subject Jonas replied, "I love theater and I understand the difference between acting and who you are as a person."

"I don't know that it's something I would've done in the end, but I definitely would've considered it." The open-minded entertainer added, "You have to be open to everything."

Jonas' makes his debut in 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying' on Jan. 24.

Uh, yeah, I think he's getting ready for a big "coming out" party. Comparing him to that guy in Glee, doing an interview for Advocate magazine, shouldn't be too long now before the invitations are sent....

How sad that he will compromise his goog morals for fleeting fame and / or fortune.
I am extremely disappointed.

Obviously you're not familiar with theatre. Or spelling. Or grammar.

@ ssmith608 If "GOD" did not want us to appear in public naked, IT would have kept the hair on our bodies as we evolved from "Apes" to "MAN"

I think it's interesting that he was asked by The Advocate magazine... Wouldn't expect Nick to do an interview with them.. Could it be that he is planning announcing he's gay?? Oh the broken hearts he would leave..and the new ones he'd have!!

What is it that everyone wants to show off their body to the world. Wow, keeping clothes on is becoming more sexy by the minute. Who cares.

I wouldn't mind seeing Nick Jonas in a full frontal nudity scene. In my house, In my bedroom, I know......IN MY DREAMS !!!! He's too wholesome to do something like that ! That would be like putting a nude scene in "Leave it to Beaver."
