Singer-songwriter Nick Jonas sat down with HuffPost Live and talked about upcoming projects, including returning to Broadway.

Shared Jonas, "Anytime I get to go back to the theater community I have a great time. And having done, you know, 'Les Mis' couple years ago over in London, 'Hairspray' out in LA... and 'How to Succeed' here [New York], I kind of felt like, alright, that was my theater itch for a little while."

Jonas shared that he does see himself returning to Broadway, but in a different role: "The next thing I do I hope I can write it. You know, be the composer of the show. Whether it's a musical or a play, or something, I'd love to write."

Jonas also dished on the one compliment he's tired of hearing: "A lot of what I heard, you know when 'Jealous' started to really rise, was people coming and saying things they don't know are really offensive... You know, 'I really didn't like your music before with your brothers, or what you did solo, but I like this song.' And the same thing with 'Chains.' It's actually a compliment, but you know, it's kind of phrased in a weird way."
