Singer Joe Jonas recently provoked outrage after a video went viral on social media showing him scratching his nose with his hands and a black cloth, then checking it in the mirror and attempting to clean it. This fueled speculation that he was sniffing cocaine backstage on his current JONAS20: Greetings From Your Hometown Tour. The 36-year-old musician has finally responded to the video.

Joe Jonas reacts to the controversy

The 36-year-old musician recently chatted with Esquire magazine about travelling with his brothers, Nick and Kevin Jonas, as well as addressing a persistent myth about his alleged cocaine use. He told Esquire magazine, "I've never touched cocaine in my life. But if I did, I think I'd be a little slicker about it than doing it onstage."
