Who’s the Favorite Jonas Brother?

Posted on 02 December 2008 by Loretta

I have been doing some research to see which Jonas Brother gets the most love from their fans and my research led me to believe that Nick is America’s favorite Jonas.

He gets the most publicity and his personal life is more news worthy than the rest.  Although Joe was the center of the media universe for a couple weeks due to his break-up with Taylor Swift, once that died down,  it was all about Nick again. Nick’s popularity even reigns superior to his older brothers when it comes to charity.

Take the Build-a-Bear auction for example, each of the Jonas Brothers designed a bear that comes with an autographed copy of the Wii Build-a-Bear game and to top it off the bear has a recorded message from the Jonas Brothers themselves.

The auction began on November 23, 2008 and Nick’s bear instantly became a hit. His bear reached $100 in just 14 bids and, as of last night, has a total of 48 bids, bringing the current total to $370.00.

Surprisingly, Kevin Jonas’ bear is in 2nd, his bear started out slow (it took his bear 23 bids to get to $100), but 42 bids later his bear is at $237.60.

And, Joe’s bear is coming in last at 30 bids for $197.50.  Joe coming in last makes me wonder if the bad publicity from the way he dumped Taylor has affected his popularity amongst America’s young women.

Anyway, the bidding for the Build-a-Bear auction ends tomorrow, December 3rd at 1pm PST…It will be interesting to see which brother comes out on top.

Who’s your favorite Jonas Brother?

‘Jump a Jonas’ and Win $10,000!

Posted on 29 September 2008 by Loretta

104.5 WSNX-FM will pay anyone who can prove that they are responsible for taking the virginity of Joe or Kevin Jonas $10,000.  Nick was excluded from the contest because he already lost his virginity to Miley Cyrus is underage. WSNX-FM announced,

The boys talk a lot about purity and living a lifestyle free of temptation and while that is an excellent way to live your life, we wanted to know if everyone had their level of self-control.  That is why we are offering a $10,000 bounty to the person that can “jump a Jonas” and prove it.  If you are able to legally bed down either of the two Jonas Brothers who are of legal age to do so and are able to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that you did the deed, you can collect the $10,000 bounty.

Good luck ladies and gentlemen.  It will be hard enough to prove that you slept with them at all, but to prove that you were their first is almost impossible.  Plus what type of proof do you think they want?  A confession?  DNA sample?  What do you think?

Nick Jonas Celebrated his 16th Birthday in Style

Posted on 20 September 2008 by Loretta

Nick and the rest of the Jonas Brothers went all out for his 16th birthday, renting out the Dodger Stadium.  The three bothers and 15 of their friends had the entire stadium to themselves for a day of fun and games.  Nick and his brothers were spotted shopping at a local sporting goods store stocking up on baseball attire and supplies for the party, which cost more than $30,000.  I guess that is a pretty cool party, just not as cool as renting out Disneyland like his ex Miley is doing for her sweet 16.  Who do you think had the sweeter 16th birthday party?

Paris Hilton Defends Jonas Brothers

Posted on 09 September 2008 by ksouthall

Paris Hilton comes to the defence when the Jonas Brothers were mocked by British comedian Russell Brand at the VMA awards show for wearing purity rings.  They have made a pledge to not have sex until marriage.  She says:

“I don’t pick on them. That’s something cool for a kid to keep, so don’t pick on them for that.” She added, “I think that they’re all really good kids and that they’re definitely our next generation of kids and they’re all really good so I think that’s awesome.”

That means a lot coming from someone that was the star of their own sex tape.  But Hilton wasn’t the only person to come the Jonas Brothers defence, Jordan Sparks told the crowd “I just wanna say, it’s not bad to wear a promise ring because not every guy and girl wants to be a slut, OK?”

Ding dang y’all!  It was just a joke, I am sure the Jonas Brothers are not like, crying into their pillows at night because some drunken Brit gave them a hard time for being virgins.

Who is Miley’s man, Paul Becker?

Posted on 08 September 2008 by Jessca

So, by now, we all know about Miley’s alleged boy du jour, Paul Becker.

Paul, a home-grown Canadian born in 1984, is best known for his role as the Jonas Brothers’ choreographer.  Like many young stars nowadays, he has accomplished a great deal in the entertainment industry at his tender age.  Paul started dancing at age twelve and since then has developed a name for himself in the areas of choreographing, acting, and dancing.

In addition to his choreography work with the ever-popular Jonas Brothers, Paul has choreographed various feature films such as The Wicker Man (2006) and The Muppets’ Wizard of Oz (2007), as well as television programs such as Reaper, The L Word, and So You Think You Can Dance - Canada (2008), in which he appears as a guest judge. His dance credits include films such as Chicago (2002) and Josie and the Pussycats (2001).  Of course, the fact that he choreographed Miley’s The Best of Both Worlds Concert does not help rumors that the two are romantically linked.

Russell Brand Angers Jordan Sparks With Purity Ring Comment

Posted on 08 September 2008 by tammy

At the VMA’S last night, host Russell Brand made some comments about the Jonas Brothers and their purity rings. He said that it was a shame that the Jonas Brothers weren’t using all of their advantages of being famous, like scoring lots of chicks.

Jordan Sparks, another purity ring wearer, apparently took great offense to the jokes, and right before she and John Legend announced T.I.’s performance, she felt the need to say, “I just have one thing to say about promise rings. It’s not bad to wear a promise ring. Because not everybody – guy or girl – wants to be a slut.”

Brand did return to the stage to offer somewhat of an apology:

“I didn’t meant to take it lightly,” the host said about purity rings. “I don’t want to piss off teenage fans.” Still, Brand, whose apology soon morphed into a series of off-color jokes, said, “Promise rings, I’m well up for it. [But] a bit of sex, it never hurt anybody.”

Selena Gomez Dines with the Jonas Brothers

Posted on 31 August 2008 by Loretta

Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift joined the Jonas Brothers on what appears to be a double date Thursday night.  The group of love birds friends dined together at Tao in New York City.  Joe Jonas and Taylor Swift have become close since they first met when Taylor made a guest appearance in one of Joe’s Disney films and Nick and Selena have been rumored as dating for quite some time now.  However, none of them have not and will not confirm that they are in a relationship.

With Joe dating befriending Taylor Swift and Nick and Selena being close friends, I guess that leaves Kevin as being the gay brother.  What do you think?  Are any of them a couple or are they just friends?

Joe Jonas Celebrates 19th Birthday

Posted on 16 August 2008 by Loretta

So, what do you buy someone that can afford anything they want for their birthday?

A motorcycle with a side car. Well, at least that is what the Jonas family bought Joe for his birthday.

Joe Jonas celebrated his 19th birthday on Friday, August 15th, with his family and Radio Disney. When asked about the gift, Joe told Radio Disney’s Ernie D., “I’m pumped!” Older brother Kevin added, “Don’t worry, there were lots of helmets given.”

Joe ended his birthday celebration by blowing out the candles on his strawberry shortcake birthday cake after the Radio Disney staff and his family sang Happy Birthday.

Personally I don’t see what the big deal is….It’s not like he couldn’t go out and buy one himself. What do you think? Was the motorcycle a good gift or could they have done better? Joe did say that he planned on buying himself a Corvette after he got his drivers license.

Selena Promotes the Jonas Bros

Posted on 13 August 2008 by domino

Spotted earlier this week: Kevin Jonas pimping a black-tee with big, gold letters “TEAM DEMI AND SELENA.” This would be a reference to the supposed youtube flame that was quickly extinguished ( relative to the fact that the video was online for a long time before rumors started sprawling.)

Selena Gomez and David Henrie

Now Ms. Selena Gomez is returning the support of Kevin Jonas by telling all her youtube viewers to go out and by multiple copies of the new Jonas Brother’s Album A Little Bit Longer, in stores now.

It’s totally speculation, but isn’t Selena a little bit too enthusiastic about getting people to buy the new Jonas album? Could it have something to do with the fact that she’s dating teen heartthrob Nick Jonas? Notice her singing new track Lovebug? Aw, a love song for the love birds.

Another theory on why she is so heavily promoting A Little Bit Longer -she’s trying to get her friends’ to smash Miley Cyrus’ first week record sales of 371,660 - a number that managed to get her a Billboard number-one debut. Could this promotion be Selena’s way of returning the favor of Kevin Jonas’ support for Team Demi and Selena? Or does Selena just want the brothers to beat Lil’ Wayne’s platinum debut?

Well whatever the case, we know for sure that Selena wants YOU to buy the new Jonas Brothers album… and then buy it again.
