Neil Patrick Harris reveals Nick Jonas crush, talks tighty-whities & Madonna

By Will Stroude

Well well, it turns out we can add Neil Patrick Harris to the list of gay men that have gone gaga for Nick Jonas over the past year. And who can blame him?

Harris used an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show earlier this week to discuss his family life with husband David Burkta and five-year-old twins Gideon and Harper, but while sitting in the ‘Hot Seat’ he was forced to admit that he had thing for the smoldering Jealous singer, who incidentally celebrated his 23rd birthday yesterday (September 16).

“David knows it so I guess it’s not a bad thing to say…” Harris told Williams. “Nick Jonas. I mean…”

The How I Met Your Mother star added: “He was really good-looking before it was kind of allowed to think he was good-looking, which was a bit of problem.

“You had to wait before he turned 19, 20, and then you were like ‘Whaaaat is happening?!'”

Williams went on to ask Harris whether he “stuffed” during his infamous tight-whitey segment at this year’s Oscars, and whether Madonna was a diva to work with on the set of 2000 comedy-drama The Next Best Thing – both of which, as you’d imagine, lead to some incredible anecdotes…
