This is so scary.

Nick Jonas was forced to run off-stage during a gig after a member of the audience pointed a laser at his head.

The scary incident happened during the second-last night of the Jonas Brothers World Tour, which has seen them play over 100 show since August 2023.

The performance has been dubbed the 'Jonas Brothers version of The Eras Tour,' as the band sing close to 70 songs throughout the night.

While playing in Prague last night (15 Oct), Nick noticed a laser pointing towards his head. He quickly made a signal to his security and ran from the stage.

Kevin and Joe left the stage shortly afterwards.

The band paused the show while the person with the laser was reportedly removed from the venue. While they did resume the gig, they were forced to skip fan-favourite A Little Bit Longer on the setlist due to timings.

Fans were horrified by the incident. One tweeted, "It's disturbing to think that someone would do something so reckless and potentially harmful."

Another said, "that's terrifying omg [sic]."

The band have yet to make a comment. They are due to play in Poland this evening for their final show of the tour.

Wasn't this tour rescheduled?

Originally the European leg of the tour was scheduled to take place over the summer. However, the trio posted a video online explaining they had chosen to postpone it due to 'exciting projects.'

The announcement came only weeks before their first gig was scheduled to take place.

In the caption of the post, the band acknowledged the changes were 'a bit inconvenient' for fans. Huge volumes of fans complained, branding it 'disrespectful.'

One fan garnered over 1.2k likes on their tweet, reading: 'Cancelling due to sickness/illness or family commitments I would totally understand.

'But re-scheduling for a ‘project’ that you are prioritising over a tour that thousands of people have paid out for, on tickets/transport/hotels DURING A COST OF LIVING CRISIS?????? REALLY????'

Another wrote: 'you can release projects and tour at the same time you don’t have to ruin peoples plans/cause people to not be able to go just for a project that no one asked for.'

Many compared the Jonas Brothers to Taylor Swift, drawing attention to how she has managed to create The Tortured Poets Department during The Eras Tour. 

During the summer, Joe released solo music and announced a solo album. The release date for his album has since been pushed back to 2025.

Meanwhile, Nick Jonas was cast in the latest John Carney musical comedy, Power Ballad. He spent weeks filming with Paul Rudd in Dublin.
