"Way too intense for a 7-year-old": Kevin Jonas recalls brother Nick’s childhood energy

Kevin Jonas says Nick could’ve used a breather as a kid. Appearing on the August 12 episode of Hot Ones Versus, the eldest Jonas Brother looked back on growing up with his brothers and singled out one childhood trait of Nick’s that stood out.

The 37-year old Sucker singer:

"You're way too intense for being 7 years old."

Nick had just asked him:

“What childhood habit of mine annoyed you the most when we lived together?”

The memory that came to Kevin’s mind involved a missed family trip.

"We went on a family vacation, and you decided, 'No, I'm not going to go on this cruise with my family. I'm going to stay home and work on Broadway.'"

Joe, who joined them on the episode, said the cruise was “the s**t,” and remembered winning a hula hoop contest and drinking countless Shirley Temples with Kevin.

As for that escapade, Nick made it clear:

“I don’t regret it at all.”

The brothers are currently on their JONAS20: Greetings From Your Hometown Tour, which runs through November 14 in the U.S.

The trio's Hot Ones Versus appearance comes after they revisited their Camp Rock hits with Demi Lovato.

The opening night of their tour brought a wave of nostalgia to MetLife Stadium on August 11, as the Heart Attack songstress joined the trio on stage for a surprise throwback.

The reunion performance featured a medley of songs from the Camp Rock films, among them Gotta Find You, This Is Me, and Wouldn’t Change a Thing.
