Written by Violet on January 12, 2010 – 10:24 pm -
Nick Jonas is doing lots of press to support his solo effort, Nick Jonas and the Administration. While he was in New York City, MTV caught up with NJ and asked him about the latest addition to the Jonas clan, sister-in-law Danielle.
“It’s amazing,” he said. “She’s here … with her whole family and they’re great. I’m so happy to have her [be] a part of our family. It’s kind of hard to believe I’ve got a sister-in-law and it’s wonderful.”
And while the brothers all have nicknames, the singer said hers is ‘just Dani.’
