The Jonas Brothers want to work with Elvis—the wannabe Elvis, that is.

Nick Jonas revealed at yesterday's American Music Awards that he and his singing siblings think they may have a future in hip-hop. "We think Kanye [West]'s new record sounded really cool, so that's someone," Nick said when asked who they'd like to team up with.

But Nick doesn't want to rush into things. "Usually it's cool to get to know somebody as a friend before forming a work relationship with them," he said.

But if Kanye doesn't pan out, there's someone else waiting in the wings. Read on to find out who...

R&B crooner J.Holiday is open to working with the Disney trio. "You might see me on a surprise [track] with the Jonas Brothers," the "Bed" hitmaker said, explaining, "I listen to all types of genres of music. I don't think you should ever be pigeonholed or held in a box."

And speaking of collaborations, American Idol winner, David Cook, says Sarah McLachlan is on the top of his list. "I'm a huge fan of hers," Cook said on the red carpet before the show. "I think we could do something very cool."

He continued, "I think she's here tonight. Maybe I'll have to give her an elbow nudge or something."

No word if he ever got a nudge in.
