"  Demi Lovato has appointed Nick Jonas as the creative and musical director of her upcoming tour. The former Jonas Brother will have a large part in the production of Lovato&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Neon Lights&amp;#039; live shows. Jonas spoke about his duties to Rolling Stone, saying: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m overseeing video content, wardrobe, lighting and staging. &amp;quot;And then I&amp;#039;m extending into the musical side of things, which includes creating the arrangements for the songs. I&amp;#039;m building what Demi wanted, which is a show without stops and starts. &amp;quot;Demi and I have the same manager. I was immediately excited when I was offered the position. The relationship that Demi and I had over eight years really gives me the insight into how to best communicate with her and her team.&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;The biggest challenge has been just trying to rethink some of the music and see how we could compliment it with lights and video. &amp;quot;I sat down with the band and said to them, &amp;#039;You need to step into this like it&amp;#039;s a new gig. None of these arrangements are going to sound like the originals, so you need to have an open mind&amp;#039;.&amp;quot; Lovato, who starred in Disney&amp;#039;s Camp Rock films alongside Jonas, confirmed the news on Twitter, saying: &amp;quot;So excited to have @nickjonas helping me out as Creative AND Musical Director on the #NEONLIGHTSTOUR!!!! &amp;quot;I trust @nickjonas so much with his creative mind and profound vision.. I&amp;#039;m so excited to show you all his work. #NEONLIGHTSTOUR&amp;quot; Little Mix, Cher Lloyd and Fifth Harmony are the tour&amp;#039;s special guests. The &amp;#039;Skyscraper&amp;#039; singer recently quit her judging role on The X Factor to focus on her music career. She said: &amp;quot;In 2014, I&amp;#039;m going to dedicate it entirely to music, touring and making a new album.&amp;quot; Via Digital Spy "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
