Nick Jonas joins Kelly, Pitbull in 'UglyDolls'

Los Angeles: Singer-actor Nick Jonas has joined the voice cast of animated feature UglyDolls.

The 25-year-old musician will voice act and perform an original song in the film, reported Variety. Jonas joins previously announced co-stars Kelly Clarkson and Pitbull in the project.

"The UglyDolls remind audiences the importance of acceptance and loving yourself, and as someone who started in this business very young, I understand the significance of using my platform to tell stories that lift others up," said Jonas.

"I love that I get to work with Kelly Clarkson and Pitbull, and I can't wait to get started," he added.

UglyDolls, based on the toy line created by David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim, will follow the town of Uglyville, where Moxy and her UglyDoll friends confront what it means to be different and struggle with their desire to be loved.
