Bulge Bump: Nick Jonas Soars Into iTunes Top 10 After Racy Shoot

Published: Friday 3rd Oct 2014 by Sam

As the age old adage goes: sex sells.

And it’s a memo Nick Jonas seems to have read and digested.

For, yesterday the 22-year-old became a viral sensation when a racy new photoshoot for Flaunt Magazine spread like wildfire.

The snaps, which – given our family site stance – are a tad too revealing to post (but are easily locatable online) saw the former Jonas Brothers member recreate Mark Walberg’s infamous underwear pose — leaving little to the imagination.

Beyond instantly raising the singer’s profile, the edgy images have raised the chart position of his latest single ‘Jealous’ too.

Details below…

Already a burgeoning hit on radio, the track had also enjoyed a favourable response on iTunes where it had been steadily climbing into the top 40 on the US tally.

Yet, following the arrival of the pics, the song shot up straight into the top ten, where it currently sits at #9.

The entire episode will likely give a super boost to Jonas’ forthcoming self-titled solo debut – due later this year.

And while we could bemoan the tactics employed to assist the song, the fact remains that Nick isn’t doing anything that hasn’t been happening for years. If anything, his actions are arguably progressive. Arguably. As, for years, the media have been fetishising females for the male gaze. Now, it appears there’s a levelling of the playing field – where male acts, such as Nick, are realizing that commercial potential attached to flaunting their assets.

From where we’re standing, it’s somewhat futile debating whether it’s “right” or “wrong”. The fact is…it’s working.

Your thoughts?

    Well s** sells.. my fave does it, your faves do it.. whether you’re in denial or Nah.
    Plus the song is nice, so goodfor him. He’s doing what Nick has been trying to do all these years, but better.

    I’d suck the diabetes out of him. *sidenote*

    • Naomi October 3, 2014

      And yet he won’t condemned because he is a man.

  3. A REALIST October 3, 2014

    SO THE SINGLE BEING ONLY $0.69 CENTS DOESN’T PLAY A MAJOR PART?

    AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!

    LOSE ME WITH THE BULLSH***

  4. LB October 3, 2014

    I’ve had a closer look at him and he is overrated. The only thing I would do is smash his as$, I’m sure it’s firm, tight and bubbly…yass.

    Now Jason Derulo is apparently single, and might be gay or bi; can someone tell him to call me.

    • Everyone’s A Critic October 4, 2014

      The fact you find Jason Derulo attractive offends me. You’re tastes < MINE. He's hot.. He evolved from the cute one to the only hot one!

  5. Naomi October 3, 2014

    Yes s** sells, unfortunately we still live in a world where men can get away with it without anyone batting a political eyelid and women cannot.

    • Dem Lessors October 3, 2014

      Oh, you’re a feminist…GTFO!

  6. Naomi October 3, 2014

    But yes, he is hot.

  7. Fancy BISH October 3, 2014

    I see you Nick…work it boo boo lol 😉 Get that money just like Katy, Iggy, Rihanna, Nicki, Miley, Mariah, Beyonce, Janet, Britney, Madonna, Christina, Adina, Lil Kim, Trina, Foxy, Shawnna, on and on…get it boo! 😉

  8. iHeart October 3, 2014

    Well as they say … White guys are growers, Not showers! And I should know I’m dating one! Lol … But not he’s a cutie, and the song really isn’t that bad.

    • S****** Blonde October 4, 2014

      There are “Showers” and “Growers” in each human race, don’t generalize, most men have the exact same ratio when their penises are erect, with the exception of oriental men, i have seen black men with small penises, each race have small and big penises, although i have never seen a chinese man with a big penis. The biggest penis i’ve ever seen in my life belongs to a Caucasian man, both in width and length, he is also u****.

  9. Cake Like Lady Gaga October 3, 2014

    would love him to sit on my face and rim him deep.:p

    • LB October 3, 2014

      Isn’t homosexuality illegal in South Africa?

      • OMG Logic!!! October 3, 2014

        Actually South Africa was one of the first countries to legalize gay marriage. So no, it isn’t.

  10. Dem Lessors October 3, 2014

    Too revealing to post on your “family friendly” site but you just post pictures of Ciara’s half naked. Ok.

    • sleazy October 4, 2014

    • Sims October 3, 2014

      Nah!!!! Say it ain’t so!?!?!

  14. R8 B****’s October 3, 2014

    From the neck down, he’s hot.

  15. Everyone’s A Critic October 4, 2014

    He’s always been a looker. These thots all talking about the package size… That don’t matter, he could be huge.. You never know until you get lucky.
    I was a fan of the Jonas brothers first 2 albums. My crush goes back to primary school Lool

  16. SMH October 4, 2014

    Yeah, i’d bend him over my desk and bang him out, but still not a fan LOL.

  17. Belladonna1363 October 4, 2014

    You guys are so late with this. Lol But yes if the rest of his new album out Nov 11th is any thing like Jealous then he will take the crown from Chris Brown as the new Prince of R&B. But his song will need to go at least in the top 3 & album sells more then 2million or his song needs to go number1 & stay there for week & at least sell 1million of his album in the U.S.
