Was that a ltle gay door we saw openg last night on the DirecTV seri? "Kgdom" actor Jai Rodriguez giv some sight. * nick jonas is gay *

The youngt JoBro is stagg a take over: between his tour of North Ameri and starrg a buzzy new TV show, he has all jealo -- not to mentn watchg his scene-stealg turn on Fox's Scream, who plays preppy-boy Boone on the seri, tells that he choos his rol "not based on whether the character is gay or straight, but about what the story is and what the dience is gog to get out of . I thk that's a highly relatable story le that a lot of my fans, both gay and straight, have e and told me that that's been credibly important for them: to see the journey he's on and to know they're not alone, whatever is that they're gog through their life that mak them feel different or strange. Nick Jonas has been acced of merely givg lip service to the gay muny, but he’s clearly not aaid to put his mouth where his money is.

The seri stars Nick Jonas as a mixed martial arts fighter who happens to also be a closeted gay man.
