Growing up in Wyckoff, New Jersey Nick Jonas may have had dreams of singing in a band with his brothers, performing on Broadway, marrying a Miss World pageant winner, and having a baby girl, but his biggest dream was to have his own golf clothing line collection. If that’s true all of his dreams have come true.
ABC reports that soon you’ll be able to dress yourself or your partner in a new PXG collection from Nick Jonas. It was just announced that the collection includes “chic and modern offerings for golf aficionados.” The collection also includes stylish hats, socks, bags, slides, and, of course, golf-inspired apparel. In all, fifteen new apparel styles and nine accessories will be available from Nick and PGX.
Nick created his new clothing with PGX co-founders Bob and Renee Parsons. “This collection is a true collaboration between Renee and me, we both share the same passion for golf and fashion, and we wanted this to be apparent in the capsule,” Nick, who is a proud golf nut, said in a statement. “The group of styles are trend-driven, sporty, and technical and have the same unique edge and boldness that I infuse in all my projects.”
Nick’s new collection, PXG x NJ, launches November 15. You can check out the PXG website to check out some of the styles that will be available in a couple of weeks.
But wait, there’s more, there will be a special pop-up store celebrating the new line, which runs from November 19 through November 20 in Los Angeles. But, don’t worry, there will also be an exclusive pop-up event in New York City on November 15, where fans can now “reserve your tee time” to access the collection exclusively. A giveaway for fans to win merchandise signed by Nick will launch on November 15.

Jason Momoa Looking Scrumptious for the Past 20 Years
Jason Momoa has always been a sex symbol since his emergence in Hollywood. The Hawaiian native got his first big break at 20 years old as Jason Ioane on Baywatch: Hawaii (1999–2001), being much less buff, had no facial hair and rocked a short haircut.
In the next few years, he journeyed to the sci-fi realm portraying Ronon Dex on the Syfy series Stargate Atlantis (2005–2009). In this series, Momoa rocks a longer dreaded hairdo and dons a goatee with a beefier frame.
If you hadn’t been following the actor’s career yet, you sure did once you got a glimpse of him as Khal Drogo in the first two seasons of Game of Thrones (2011–2012). As the warrior and loyal husband of Daenerys Targaryan, Momoa gained quite the fandom in his portrayal of the Dothraki chieftain. His most recent TV acting roles include his leading roles as Declan Harp on the historical drama series Frontier (2016–2018), and as the beloved Baba Voss on Apple TV+’s See (2019–2022).
As popular as his role as Khal Drogo was, Momoa is also commonly called upon by his DC character, Aquaman. He has played the role of Arthur Curry since the eponymous 2018 film and in its upcoming 2023 sequel. As we earlier reported, Momoa spilled the beans that Ben Affleck’s Batman will be appearing in the sequel. He’s also starred in the 2021 sci-fi flick Dune alongside an all-star cast consisting of Timothée Chamalet, Zendaya, Oscar Isaac, Stellan Skarsgård, Dave Bautista, Javier Bardem and Josh Brolin.
Momoa shares two kids, Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha, 13, and Lola Iolani, 15, with his ex-wife, actress Lisa Bonet. The two began dating in 2005 after Momoa called off his engagement to Baywatch actress Simmone Jade Mackinnon. Momoa and Bonet married twelve years later in 2017 but announced their split in January 2022.
