Jet-setting actor/musician Joe Jonas has once again made time in his busy schedule for a little stop through Cleveland — “Hot in Cleveland,” that is, the popular show on TV Land starring Valerie Bertinelli, Betty White, Wendie Malick and Jane Leeves.

Jonas has a guest-starring role on the sitcom as the wayward son of Bertinelli’s character. MTV News was lucky enough to visit the set of “Cleveland” on the day Jonas filmed his second guest spot, which premieres Wednesday night (January 25) at 10 p.m. ET. When we caught up with him for a few minutes between scenes, he shared some details about his return to the show.

“Being back on the show, [my character Will is] engaged, and I have to be engaged to Jennifer Love Hewitt, which is really nice,” he said. “We’re both sons and daughters of characters on the show, and we show up and surprise everybody. They don’t expect us to be engaged.”

Jonas said that while it was fun to work with Hewitt, their characters’ engagement doesn’t exactly last for long. “Both of our characters are really different. I think I’m a little bit blinded by the fact that she may not be the perfect person for me. I think we last probably less than Kim Kardashian in this,” he joked.

Long engagements or no, Jonas said he loves his time on the show and would be happy to come back any time.

“I would love to be able to return again. The first episode when I left, people were like, ‘Are you going to be back soon?’ and I said, ‘I think so.’ I don’t think my character passed away, so I think we’re good. I don’t die in this episode either,” he added. “So I’m still around, so I could definitely come back if they’d like me to. I have a fun time being on the set and I love the cast; it’s kind of like a family.”

We (Cambio) talked to Joe Jonas on the set of Hot in Cleveland for his second appearance on the show. Joe plays Valerie Bertinelli’s son, Will, who couldn’t be more different from Joe! Will is just out of college, broke and waiting tables. Somehow, Will and diva actress Emmy (played by Jennifer Love Hewitt) make a connection and get engaged despite their differences.

Joe had the privilege of meeting Betty White while working on the show and says that she keeps all the actors in stitches. Joe and Betty had an interesting first meeting, but we think she has the makings of a big Jonas fan!

Watch Joe in Hot in Cleveland January 25 on TV Land. Check your local listings.

We don’t know if we’re more excited about the Giants going to the Super Bowl (NYC, WHAT UP) or discovering that one of our fave Jonas Brothers, Joe, has has picked his side. Wait, actually we do know — it’s the latter, obvs.

The “See No More” singer was snapped outside his hotel in NYC recently looking super excited to be holding on to a (brand new?) Giants cap. Joe’s most likely not only in the Big Apple to root for our home team, but also to show support for bro Nick Jonas who just started his big gig on Broadway with the lead in “How To Succeed In Business Without Even Trying.” What a modern dude: appreciating theater and sports.

While we’ll let MTV Clutch get you the detailed scoop on Joe’s favorite football team, we’ll stick to what we know best: dreaming about becoming as handsome as Joe Jonas in sweatpants. That’s one of many magical powers you receive once you reach heartthrob status, guys — your scrubs (almost) look like a tailored suit.
