There ain't a doubt that American pop singer Nick Jonas enjoys a massive fan following across the globe, all thanks to his charming personality and a voice to drool over. However, the frenzy of fans went to an unwanted level when the singer was performing at his Happiness Begins Tour in Los Angeles with his brothers Joe Jonas and Kevin Jonas. Apparently, Nick, during the concert was being inappropriately touched by a fan repeatedly. Soon after the incident took place, the video went viral on social media platforms.
In the video, we can see a fan touching Nick constantly. Upon spotting this, security personnel reached across the narrow platform to stop the fan from doing so. However, despite frequent attempts, the person failed to pay heed. After ignoring for quite some time, Nick was seen swatting the fan’s hands away.
Soon after the video went viral, Nick's social media followers jumped to his support and called the incident disrespectful towards any artist. Some of them even termed it to be an assault.
This is so disrespectful to the artist! I know as a fan you're happy to see your idol BUT don't touch them like that..

Nobody should be doing that at all it makes it very uncomfortable for the other fans as well as the band performing on stage

It's sad just because people pay tickets for shows, they feel entitled to touch em etc. Yet forgetting that's assault if you wanna be specific.
That's horrible.— Renée~ (@skyessong) October 24, 2019
Nick and the team behind the concert are yet to give an official statement on the incident. The Happiness Begins tour began on August 7, 2019, in Miami, and is set to conclude on February 22, 2020, in Paris.
