Nick Jonas makes surprising confession about his two careers

Nick Jonas has opened up about his acting and singing career.

Speaking with People Magazine, the Jonas Brothers' member revealed the one thing he does before singing and avoids before acting.

Jonas, who stars in the film Power Ballad alongside Paul Rudd said, "I mean, it's the same thing at the end of the day. You're putting on a performance, you're opening up the walls of your personal life and experience to everyone else to kind of engage with."

"The only difference is, and this is actually not all that interesting, but the only difference is before a show, I'm relaxed. I might have a little cocktail, get the vibe right. For a scene, I'm not doing that," he added.

Referring to pre-scene cocktail, Jonas noted that he and Rudd "never did that."

"But that's only because it's really hard to find alcohol in Ireland," Rudd noted.

Furthermore, Paul Rudd and Nick Jonas also shared elsewhere in the interview, what they learned from each other while filming Power Ballad.

Rudd said, "I learned that you could be an incredibly talented musician and still be the coolest, nicest guy. Nick, that is you."

"And you have a real way of conveying emotion and showing exactly what your character is thinking without saying anything, which is just the best thing to be able to do when you're acting," he added.

Meanwhile, Jonas said, "I mean, one of the most exciting parts of stepping into this film with you, but specifically just any acting projects I've been fortunate enough to do is you kind of do learn something from everybody."

"And [Rudd] mentioned some stories about being on set with Jack Nicholson, other people you've worked with. It's just so cool to see that even at your level and with your experience, that there's still that ability to kind of be a sponge, and I tried to do that with you," he added.
