Nicole Anderson Knows All

Eighteen-year-old Nicole Anderson plays the self-proclaimed #1 JONAS fan Macy Misa in the new Disney Channel sitcom JONAS. “She’s a huge goof ball and doesn’t care about what other people think [of] her,” Nicole told us about her character. “She is very confident and OK with being herself no matter how crazy it is.”

And does she mimic her character’s klutzy ways? “We’re both accident prone,” she says. “But when she gets around the [Lucas] Brothers she becomes this huge klutz and that’s definitely how it is in real life as well. Anytime I’m walking or something, I’m just like, ‘Oh, please don’t trip up the stairs.’”
But there are a few other things on the show that mimic Nicole’s life off-screen. For starts, her real-life BFF Chelsea Staub plays Stella Malone: Macy’s best bud. But how well do Nicole and Chelsea really know each other? We got them both on the phone to ask the same nine questions. Here’s what Nicole had to say…

GL: Filming must be so much fun. What’s it like on set? Is there anything you love doing in between takes?
Nicole Anderson: Chelsea and I love hanging out in the makeup room. Our hairstylist has this weighted hula-hoop so we just jam out to techno music and mess around with [it]. That’s something we do, and the Jonas Brothers also have a rec-room upstairs with pinball and stuff like that.

GL: Tell us the first word that comes to your mind to describe this person…

Kevin Jonas
NA: Welcoming.

Joe Jonas
NA: Goof ball.

Nick Jonas
NA: Gentleman.

GL: What’s one thing people might be surprised to know about you?
NA: I love quilting. I actually just started when I moved out [to Los Angeles] for the show. I wanted to make a tablecloth for my dressing room and there is this fabric store right down the road from my house in San Diego when I was still living there. I went in to buy some fabric and they had all these other fabrics for making quilts and I’m like ‘Oh my gosh! I want to make a quilt!’ I ended up making a quilt and a tablecloth and I fell in love with it.

GL: What’s one thing people might be surprised to know about Chelsea?
NA: She’s totally a rock and roll baby. Actually, when she was born, “Sweet Child of Mine” was playing in the delivery room.

GL: What’s your favorite thing to do with Chelsea when you’re not working?
NA: Something that we love to do together probably is just staying up late, talking and pigging out.

GL: Summer’s coming up. What’s your favorite vacation destination?
NA: I have gone to Niagara-on-the-Lake. You know, Niagara Falls in Canada. It’s this cute little quaint town and it’s just warm and everyone is so nice. They have the cutest little shops. But I really want to go to Rome.
Be sure to check out Nicole on JONAS when it premieres TONIGHT, MAY 2 (8:00 p.m. EST) on the Disney Channel.
