Neil Patrick Harris has come under fire for calling Nick Jonas ‘really good-looking’ when he was a teenager in ‘completely inappropriate’ resurfaced comments.<\/p>\n

The actor, 49, has been criticised on social media for a 2015 interview, where he said he had a ‘crush’ on Nick, now 30, when the star was still a teenager.<\/p>\n

In the interview, Neil, who was 42 at the time, was asked who his ‘celebrity crush’ was during an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show. <\/p>\n

He named singer Nick as his crush and spoke about finding him ‘good-looking’ before it was ‘allowed’, saying it was a ‘bit of a problem’.<\/p>\n

‘He was really good-looking before it was kind of allowed to think he was good-looking,’ Neil said after a pause.<\/p>\n

‘Which was a bit of a problem, you kind of had to wait ’til he turned to be, y’know\u2026 19, 20, you’re like: ‘What is happening?’<\/p>\n

The How I Met Your Mother star admitted that his husband David Burtka, who he married in 2014, knew about his celebrity crush.<\/p>\n

‘David knows it, so I guess it’s not a bad thing to say,’ he added during the ‘hot seat’ challenge.<\/p>\n

Nick, who rose to fame as a Disney child star and a third of the Jonas Brothers when he was 12 years old, was aged 23 when the interview was filmed.<\/p>\n
