When Jonas was 12 years old, he and his brothers were signed by Columbia Records in 2005 and the Jonas Brothers was formed. Not too long after their first album “It’s About Time” was released, the band began working with Disney by covering songs from their movies and writing theme songs for their shows.
The following year, in 2007, the band was dropped from their record label and signed with Disney’s Hollywood Records. Disney heavily promoted their song “Year 3,000,” making it a hit. Through Disney, they released a second album in August 2007 and started appearing on some networks shows.
They continued to tour and release albums under their contract with Disney, and even appeared in two Disney Channel original movies, “Camp Rock” and “Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam.” The cracks in the band’s foundation started in 2009 when they started a scripted show on Disney Channel called “Jonas.”
“It was a big regret,” Nick said in the documentary about the band. “We shouldn’t have done that. It really stunted our growth. I feel like it was just a bad move. It was just not the time. Literally, we couldn’t evolve because of it.”
In the documentary, the brothers claimed the show led to a lot of disagreements between them and once the show was canceled in 2010, they began solo projects.
Break-up of the Jonas Brothers

When their Disney show ended, the brothers were all looking for a way to show they had matured, each choosing to do this differently. Nick started the band Nick Jonas & The Administration and released the album “Who I Am” with them.
Nick then made his return to Broadway, where he got his start as a child, starring in the play “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” and took a guest role on NBC’s hit show “Smash.” While there were rumors the band was getting back together after this hiatus, they officially announced their break-up in October 2013.
The announcement came just a few days before their tour was about to begin and on the heels of the release of their fifth album, which they decided to scrap.
A spokesperson for the band told People at the time “There is a deep rift within the band. There was a big disagreement over their music direction.”

After the Jonas Brothers broke up, Jonas found a lot of success as a solo performer. He released two solo albums at this time entitled “Nick Jonas” and “Last Year was Complicated.” These albums were very successful and featured hit singles like “Chains” and “Jealous.”
He also continued to pursue a career in acting, appearing in both movies and TV shows. Jonas secured roles in “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,” “Scream Queens” and “Kingdom.” He admitted it was not always easy for him to land these roles.

“It’s not been easy at all. In the beginning, there was a lot of bias towards projects that I’ve done in the past, and I’ve really been wanting to cut into a different direction and do something that would challenge me,” he previously told Vanity Fair. “But, I’ve been diving in headfirst with all the acting projects I’ve had, and I think the hard work is paying off.”
Relationship with Priyanka Chopra

Fans were shocked to find out Jonas and Priyanka Chopra were a couple and were captivated by their week-long wedding event in India in December 2018. The couple documented their wedding on social media, allowing fans to follow along.
The couple have had a lot of questions surrounding not only their 10-year age gap, but also whether Jonas would be able to assimilate and fully embrace Chopra’s culture.
“Nick took to India like a fish to water. But just like a normal couple, you have to understand each other’s habits and what each other likes,” Chopra told The Sunday Times in 2021. “So, it’s more of an adventure than trying to figure out hurdles. None of it was really that hard.”
The couple is still going strong and recently welcomed a baby girl via surrogacy.

“The documentary was a way for us to figure out what we wanted to say and who we wanted to be in this new chapter,” Nick explained to Billboard in 2019. “It feels like the second bite of the apple is potentially going to be even bigger. We’re in a healthy place, we’re enjoying the ride. And I think the music is a reflection of that.”
