Joe Jonas has been famous for more than half of his life, so he’s well-accustomed to meeting fans on the street. But that doesn’t mean they don’t still surprise him from time to time.
In a hilarious TikTok posted Monday (July 7), the Jonas Brothers star details an encounter he had with someone who approached him while he was out and about in New York City about two days prior. “This person sees me, and she goes, ‘Oh! We were just talking about you,’” recounts Jonas, filming himself as he walks around the city.
“I was like, ‘Oh, nice. Nice things, I hope,’” he continues. “She goes, ‘We were talking actually about your tiny nipples.’”
Even as he’s recalling the story, the DNCE frontman looks bewildered. “I think they’re quite average-sized nipples,” he says after taking a look down his shirt.
“Then she was like, ‘My friends are over there … when they see you, they’re going to totally laugh, because we were just talking about it,’” Jonas adds. “I was like, ‘Oh, great. Thank you?’”
After finishing his story, the artist asks followers to weigh in. “Anyways, do I have tiny nipples?”
According to a study published in the 2018 Aesthetic Surgery Journal, researchers found that the average diameter of a male areola is about 26.6 millimeters, or 2.7 centimeters. So, if Jonas’ measure less than that, then the answer to his question could be “yes.”
In the meantime, the Camp Rock alum implied he’s feeling a bit self-conscious now. “Mind you I was feeling decently confident before this,” he wrote in the caption of his video.
Jonas’ post comes shortly after the May release of his new solo album, Music for People Who Believe in Love. The LP debuted at No. 24 on the Billboard 200.
He’s now gearing up to release a new Jonas Brothers album with siblings Kevin and Nick. Led by singles “Love Me to Heaven,” “No Time to Talk” and “Slow Motion,” Greetings From Your Hometown will arrive Aug. 8.
