Niley at the KCAs


Awwww Miley and Nick were caught chatting and smiling at the 2009 KCAs. I’ll admit, this made me smile a bit, it was cute. To clear any rumors before they start up, they are just good friends, no they aren’t dating, and Miley is happy with her current boyfriend.

Demand for Jonas Brothers Tickets Adds More Shows

A slew of tickets for the Jonas Brothers [ tickets ]‘ upcoming world tour hit the box office this past weekend, and the pop trio’s fans wasted no time snatching them up.

The sibling act sold a combined total of more than 800,000 tickets for upcoming tour stops throughout North America, and posted sellouts in New York; Los Angeles; Chicago; Philadelphia; Washington, DC; Houston; Pittsburgh; New Orleans; Atlanta; Los Angeles; and Edmonton, Alberta, according to tour promoter Live Nation.

In response to the demand, the group immediately rolled out second shows in Los Angeles, Chicago and Philadelphia, as well as Vancouver, British Columbia.

As previously reported, “The Jonas Brothers World Tour 2009″ kicks off June 20 in Dallas and will touch down at arenas and stadiums across North America through an Aug. 31 finale in Ottawa, Ontario.

The US jaunt comes on the heels of a short South American leg in mid-May, as well as sold-out shows at Paris’ Zenith Arena and London’s Wembley Arena in June. The band’s new Hollywood Records effort will hit shelves worldwide June 15, just in time for the stateside trek.

Each show will include a massive, 140-foot stage centered in the arena, allowing for better views throughout the venue. Other ambitious features–such as a one-of-a-kind water screen, laser and automated video effects and a giant crane over the audience–are also expected to wow the mostly female crowd.

The Jonas Brothers’ world-tour announcement comes nearly two weeks after the debut of their new Disney movie, “Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience.” The pop trio celebrated the new release with moviegoers, jetting around to select US cities and surprising fans with impromptu performances.

Jonas Brothers SLIMED!

Yes, sure you might have seen the Jonas Brothers on the KCAs getting slimed, but have you seen the aftermath of the slime? Here are a few pics, courtesy of Nick J Online.


Eh? Super Soaked by Slime eh? hehe here's a vid of them being slimed:


For those of you who haven't noticed Joe's new haircut, yup, he got a new haircut. Tell me what you think about it . . . thanks! I LOVE IT

Nick's Simple Wins - Nick's New Blog Entry!

March 23, 2009

I want to start off by saying thank you to Jordan and Billy from JDRF. Billy was the cameraman and Jordan was the reporter who covered our 3D Movie Premiere in Los Angeles for Nickssimplewins.com. You two did a great job and if you haven’t checked it out go to the video section and see all the interviews they captured on the carpet.

We are currently doing one of my favorite parts of being a Jonas Brother. . . recording! The creative process of writing and recording music can be very relaxing, especially when everything around us is going 100 MPH. I can’t wait for all of you to hear the new music. We already have 8 - 9 songs done for the next CD.

Last week I spent a day with my partners from Bayer. We spent all day planning everything we are going to bring you this year. It was a very long day which included a photo shoot and video shoot along with some brainstorming sessions. They also previewed some new products and programs we will be launching. You’ll learn more about those in the coming months. I have included a couple shots from the day.

Time to head to the studio; don’t forget to watch us on the Kids Choice Awards this weekend.

My Simple Win this month? Creating new music for our fans to enjoy.

Happy Easter!

-Nick

Jonas Brothers Making Up For Movie Disappointment

Perhaps that poor showing in the box office didn’t signify the Jonas Brothers were done after all.

The reason for the Disney megagroup’s poor turnout for their movie, Jonas Brothers: 3D Concert Experience, is becoming rather apparent. Their tour—you know, the thing where you pay a lot more but you get to see them in person in a giant room with tens of thousands of other screaming fans—has sold out huge arena venues in many major cities, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, Pittsburgh, Edmonton, New Orleans, Atlanta and Washington, D.C. In fact, the trio sold more than 800,000 total tickets when the shows went on sale this weekend.

Jordin Sparks, as well as Honor Society, are joining the boy band for the North American leg of the tour, while Demi Lovato will help them kick off the festivities in Latin America in May.

“Ticket sales for this tour have been phenomenal,” says Jason Garner, chief executive officer for global music for Live Nation. “It’s clear to us that Jonas Brothers are a true global touring powerhouse.”

The good news follows the siblings’ big win for Favorite Music Group at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards Saturday evening.

How do YOU feel about Joe Jonas' New Haircut?



A funny thing must’ve happened on the way to the Nickeodeon Kids’ Choice Awards 2009 this past Saturday. Seems like Joe Jonas tripped and fell on a pair of scissors, stood up and turned into Adrian Grenier 2.0, except exponentially better looking, in my opinion. Don’t get me wrong — I wouldn’t kick Adrian Grenier off my flip-n-…er… friend! for eating Lunchables, but Adrian’s hot 50% of the time, and the other 50% he kinda has a weird ape-like express that makes me feel like I can’t really trust him, whereas Joe Jonas looks good ALWAYS.

Anyway, what’s your take on Joe Jonas’ new haircut? I mean CLEARLY it’s MILES above Camp Rock, and it also looks a little easier to maintain next to what I’ll refer to as his A Little Less Longer hair, since this is clearly his Lines, Vines And Trying Times (or whatever the new Jonas Brothers album will be called) look.

Leave a comment below, and tell me whether you love Joe Jonas’ new hair, hate it (traitor!), or prefer Adrian Grenier, and why!

Jonas Brothers Blown Away By Twilight!

FIRST PUBLISHED: March 29, 2009 6:06 PM EDT
LAST UPDATED: March 29, 2009 6:39 PM EDT
LOS ANGELES, Calif. –
“Twilight” blew up at the box office and made an impression last week with its DVD release, but the Jonas Brothers revealed they only just caught the vampire film.

“I just recently saw the first one, actually,” Kevin Jonas told Access Hollywood at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards on Saturday. “I watched it on the plane and it was really good. I was blown away.”

In February, the brothers told MTV it would be “really cool” to be on the soundtrack of “New Moon,” the “Twilight” sequel – though they admitted to not having seen the first film at the time. According to Kevin, they’d still like to be involved.

“Who knows,” he told Access. “If they ask us, why not?”

Though the movie may have impressed him, he added that he wouldn’t want to be a vampire himself.

“I wouldn’t go as far as to say that,” Kevin said. “I’m happy where I’m at, so I’ll stick with living.”

And life is pretty good for Kevin these days — the Jonas Brothers recently announced a world tour, and his band of brothers won the Kids’ Choice Award for Favorite Music Group at last night’s event.

The Jonas Brothers to start Twittering! Not about Camilla Belle


(hehe. don't you just love Joe's new haircut?)

The Jonas Brothers
stopped to talk with the Dish Rag at the Kids' Choice Awards.

Here’s what we found out!

They were all looking forward to meeting Hugh Jackman.

Joe was wearing his favorite shoes, a pair of black leather YSL casual shoes. Not at all slime-worthy. Hope that green stuff washes out!

We talked to Joe about having lunch with Camilla Belle this week.

Are they dating? All his fans are dying to know if he's still single!

"I don’t want to talk about that tonight,” Joe said.

Are the brothers Twittering yet? “No, but everyone has been asking us that all night. We have to start doing it!"

What will they do later tonight? Stop by snarky blogger Perez Hilton’s 31st birthday party at the Viper Room? Um, no.

They plan to see their new pals, the Honor Society, perform. And then they’re going to see their idol Prince perform at his party.

Do the JBs have any stalkers yet?

“It hasn’t happened yet. Our fans are awesome.”

Jonas Brothers Takeover Radio Disney



The Jonas Brothers pose with Ernie D at the Radio Disney headquarters on Friday afternoon (March 28) in Burbank, Calif.

Nick, Joe and Kevin took over the station before they put on an acoustic performance. Check out what they had to say:

On their upcoming tour: “We’ve got new songs, new production elements and new instruments as well. In this new record, we tried to add some different sounds. We’ve been working a lot with horns. After we did the Grammy performance with Stevie Wonder, we had the five horn players behind us. We were like, ‘We should do this to our music and add this different sound to it.’ We incorporated it in our record and we’ll be playing with them this summer.”

On their upcoming Disney Channel series, JONAS: “The show is really fun. We get to go above and beyond. I [Kevin] think I wore footie pajamas no less than 300 times. My character, he’s out there. I like my character he’s fun.”

On if they have good luck charms: “This bracelet — I’ve worn it for five or six years. I just always have it on me.” (Joe)

“We all have our necklaces and my bracelet as well. Then there’s our guitars. I’ve never named a guitar. I always thought that was a little…maybe I should start. It’d be cooler. In the show, that happens were I have all these names for my guitars and I’m talking to my guitars at one point. Someone [walks by] and thinks I’m talking about girls.” (Kevin)

JONAS Premiere Date Announced!



The premiere date of JONAS, the TV series will be Saturday, May 2nd at 8pm on Disney Channel. According to an AD putting in the new Seventeen Magazine.

Jonas Brothers: Lines, Vines, and Trying Times Primer

“THE FOUR ARTISTS YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU LISTEN TO THE NEW JONAS BROTHERS’ ALBUM: A ‘LINES, VINES, AND TRYING TIMES’ PRIMER!”

Published by Tamar Anitai on Friday, March 27, 2009 at 3:30 pm.

While we still lack definite confirmation that the title of the Jonas Brothers’ next album will be Lines, Vines And Trying Times, we can tell you (fairly) confidently about where the Jonas Brothers are coming from on their new album.

In a recent Billboard interview, Nick Jonas revealed that the boys drew heavy inspiration from Elvis Costello, The Zutons, Kings Of Leon and the reigning king of all entertainment, Neil Diamond. And while we can’t tell you exactly what that sounds like through a Jonas filter, we can tell you a little bit about those bands. Consider it a Lines, Vines, And Trying Times primer for the uninitiated.

ELVIS COSTELLO: An intellectual’s rockstar, he exploded into the world with My Aim Is True, a peppy, quirky, ska-infused downer that’s widely considered one of the best debuts of all time. That’s right. Peppy downer. Think about it. Elvis Costello videos to know: “Radio Radio” and the very Jonasy “Veronica.”

THE ZUTONS: Punky British indie rockers who were way too catchy to stay indie long. Their first single, “Pressure Point,” was featured in a Levi’s commercial and on every nerd’s mixtape in 2004. Zutons video to know: “Pressure Point.”

KINGS OF LEON: Studs. Strike me dead for saying so, but this Tennessee-bred band of brothers makes the JoBros look like the nerdy nice guys who finish last in all the movies. Their music comes from the South and from the guts. Visceral rock that even Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift can’t resist. Kings of Leon video to know:. Kings of Leon video to know: “The Bucket.”

NEIL DIAMOND: Need I say more? If you don’t know Neil Diamond, you’re still just waiting to be born. Here’s a classic. Play it loud, my baby.

Jordin Sparks: Cruising With John Mayer & Touring With the Jonas Brothers

(OMJ I LOVE this picture of Joe!)

Now the Jonas Brothers. You’re going on tour with them. How exciting!
I am so stoked. What I’ve got confirmed so far are the U.S. tour dates, and it is a pretty long tour. I think it’s close to 50 dates, and they keep adding more. I met them a couple years ago, and they are really great people. We’ve kept in contact and our paths have crossed. I am very excited to go on tour with them. It’ll expose me to a whole bunch of other fans.

Are you ready for the romance rumors to start? Because you know they are going to.
That is so funny, because I have had so many people tell me that, and I am like, “Oh great, here we go.” It is really funny but I am ready…Bring it on!

So which one would you prefer to have the rumor with?
I don’t know, because I think it would be scandalous on either side, because I think Kevin and Joe are taken at the moment and Nick is a lot younger than me. [Laughs]

Blog Girl's 'Random Five' with Joe Jonas

Posted on March 25th, 2009 at 11:31 am by Blog Girl

We asked Joe FIVE random questions. He had a great time with them and (as you can see) had us ROLLING with laughter with some of his answers (specifically the one about his biggest adventure!) Here’s what he said!

Q: Do you have quirky habit?
Joe: I always shut our closet door before I go to bed. I don’t know why, and our door. I don’t know why. I just shut them. Maybe there’s like something weird – everybody’s got their thing to do. That’s kind of my thing, you know?

Q: Do you have a favorite food?
Joe: I love my grandma’s homemade pizza. First of all, you’ve gotta say your grandma’s pizza is better than any pizza in the world. But it is the best because, she’s Italian. It goes over well.

Q: What is the most adventurous thing you’ve ever done?
Joe: I’ve gone to the moon twice now. It’s been very exciting. The first time it was actually filmed in a studio and the second time we actually went. Besides the moon, I would have to say… you know what? I’m going to stick with the moon because no reader will absolutely believe me but it will also be hilarious so… come on. Walking in my backyard to the moon.

Q: What is the weirdest rumor you’ve ever read about yourself?
Joe: That I like girls that wear chocolate chip lip-gloss.

Q: If you could have any super power, what would it be and why?
Joe: I would be able to go anywhere at any time. All I would have to do is close my eyes and I’m at the place. I could be like, sitting down on the couch and be like, “I really want a Slurpee” and bam! I’m in 7-11 getting a Slurpee and then back to my room. That’d be sweet.

Pretty cool, huh? Which of Joe’s answers made you laugh the hardest?

Nick and Jordan Pruitt Together!?

Yes, JB Fandemonium is aware of this rumor. I do not like posting about their personal lives, but this rumor is becoming a problem. I seriously don't think it's fair to them that rumors are being told about them, and sites a quickly picking them up. If you ask for my opinion, I think this is sounding completely FAKE. People need to stop thinking that even though a celebrity hangs out with someone, that it means that they are dating. Pictures spread across the media are old, but the rumors are spreading even quicker. Just to clear things up, rumors are not at all true!

At 2:42 Joe gets arms wrapped around his neck by a fan. After it, he goes straight to the In-Ear microphone and talks to his people. I wonder what he said?

CRASH OF FANCLUB SERVERS, PRICE OF TICKETS, AND THE BEST TOUR EVER!



After the fans of Phish and Bruce Springsteen, now those of Jonas Brothers face problems with regard to ticket release. Yesterday, the newly launched Team Jonas fan club website crashed. The reason: an enormous demand for the passes to North American concerts. With thousands of Jonas Brothers’ fans hitting the website for collecting tickets to the upcoming tour of their music heroes, it failed to run smoothly and broke down.

Dissatisfied and disappointed, fans left angry notes on Jonas Brothers MySpace such as “team jonas, quite frankly sucks. as for now. urghhhhh :p”; “I STILL have not been able to get onto Team Jonas for my access codes!!” ; “got mine… i had to buy a second membership this morning, but i got mine.” Membership to the fan club requires a payment of $30, and now the website fails to live up to the expectations of Jonas Brothers devotees. More than five hours after the beginning of the presale, the website still showed the message “We are experiencing very high volume at the moment. Please check back with us in a few moments.” To pacify the fans and control the situation, the Jonas Brothers released a statement which is as follows:

“Due to overwhelming demand among Team Jonas members for pre-sale tickets for the Jonas Brothers World Tour 2009, the official Team Jonas fan club website experienced intermittent problems this morning, causing delays among members attempting to connect to purchase tickets. For those of you still needing access codes, we are in the process of contacting fan club members individually with a solution so that you can purchase tickets as soon as possible. Rest assured that only Team Jonas fan club members will continue to have exclusive access to purchase tickets for the next 36 hours (through 10 AM EST, Wednesday March 25). Thank you for being a part of Team Jonas.”

Though many fans managed to get tickets before the crash, the incident caused much trouble to those who wanted tickets. Howvever, upper deck tickets will be availably for the next 36 hours. Passes for the next U2 show will be released tomorrow. Lets hope getting those will not be as much trouble for U2 fans.

SOURCE: Celeb9

Next year, I think Team Jonas should give different days for the dates. Like more than just 2 days! Trying to get all those dates in just ONE day - it was BOUND to lead to this!

Sorry, Gabriella. Your mom won’t be taking you to see the Jonas Brothers in concert this summer.

When Lili Scarpa saw what it would cost for her 10-year-old daughter to see the heartthrob rockers again this year, she got sticker shock. Last year, she paid $47.50 at Target Center, and the comparable ticket will run $89.50 for a July 8 return engagement.

“I was blown away by that,” said Scarpa of Golden Valley. “It’s crazy, especially right now with the economy.”

Tickets, priced from $29.50 to $89.50 (plus fees), go on sale at noon today at Ticketmaster outlets and Target Center.

“Prices are dictated by what artists think they can make,” said Gary Bongiovanni, editor of the concert journal Pollstar. “Some artists are more price-sensitive than others. The driving force is what the market will allow them to do. If it’s too much money, they shouldn’t buy the tickets.”

Jonas Brothers Radio Disney Takeover Promo

Disney came out with a new commercial. Jonas Brothers shot new promos for their new TV show JONAS and they are shown here in this new promo that aired during March 22’s new Hannah Montana. It promotes their Radio Disney Takeover on Friday (March 27) 7et/4pt!

Brothers in Charms

In their ongoing attempt to leave nary a single 12-year-old heart unmelted, the brothers Jonas recently unveiled plans for a worldwide arena tour. With a slew of Canadian dates planned on their new theatre-in-the-round type stage setting, the mop-topped, world-domineering boy band recentlyexplained themselvesto a gaggle of press on a North American conference call.

“We’ve never embarked on an in-the-round tour in our lives and so to be able to go on tour and do it, it’s going to be amazing,” said Kevin Jonas, the oldest, at 22. “I mean, we can’t wait.”

Selling the boys has been a brisk business. Their recently released 3D IMAX movie quickly became the second highest grossing concert film of all time. In fact, it’s a bona fide bubblegum moment: the highest grossing concert film ever was released last year by Miley Cyrus, and the boys appear several times in her film. While pundits profess that the music industry is dying, it seems a 12-year-old girl with a credit card and a crush will still find her way to the store.

However, such fandom may not be as feverish as in the late ’90s, when teen pop queens and kings ruled the world.

“Look back on it, and just 10 years to 15 years ago, Britney Spears and *NSync were selling a million records in the first day of their album release and they were selling arenas out,” Kevin said. “We’re on an arena tour now, but no one’s selling 10 million records anymore.”

The brothers have recently been holed up in the studio, working on their fourth album, due out June 15. They talk about the thrill of performing with Stevie Wonder at the Grammys and how they’ve been influenced by Elvis Costello, Johnny Cash, Neil Diamond and Kings of Leon.

But the New Jersey-bred, Texas-based pop stars also realize they’re as popular for their hairdos as they are for their sound. Furthermore, perhaps inevitably, their personal lives have become grist for the mill. Though they claim to be virgins and all wear purity rings, their rumoured canoodling with everyone from Miley Cyrus to Taylor Swift to that man-eater from The Hills, Lauren Conrad, has threatened to sully their image as choir boys.


“We’ve got a lot going in our lives so I think, for us, you know, we’re very focused on that,” Nick, 17, said, in a deft act of evasion. “We tend to find time to date, but for the most part we’re focused on what we’re doing on the TV show.”

The boys (and their management) are certainly striking while their iron is hot. Besides the concert film and JONAS, their upcoming TV show, they have also appeared on Saturday Night Live and played for U. S. President Barack Obama’s daughters, Malia and Sasha, at the White House. Of course, there was also a nasty South Park episode, in which Mickey Mouse gave the brothers a beat down, but the boys contend they’re no puppets on a string.

“Nothing we do is pushed on us,” Kevin said. “Everything we do is either brought to us and we sign off on it, or we come up with the ideas.”

Thus far, it’s hard to argue with a game plan that has made the Jonas Brothers North America’s favourite new pop band. And there’s no reason to believe that those unconvinced 12-year-olds in places as far-flung as Peru, Belgium, Ireland and Spain will be able to resist their easy hooks and smiles on a new world tour. This summer, the concert rolls through Canada.

Moms and dads, you’ve been warned. - The Jonas Brothers recently announced Canadian tour dates for the coming summer, including Vancouver, GM Place, June 30; Edmonton, Rexall Place, July 2; Winnipeg, MTS Centre, July 5; Montreal, Bell Centre, Aug. 29; Toronto, Rogers Centre, Aug. 30; Ottawa, Scotiabank Place, Aug. 31. For further details, visit jonasbrothers.com.

‘They’re More Than Gorgeous’

Alexandra Ferrara, 13, has travelled to California and the Bahamas in order to see the Jonas Brothers in concert. Alessia Dzwigala is 12 and wants to see her first Jonas Brothers concert this summer, suggesting she’ll open a lemonade stand to earn ticket scratch. We asked Alexandra and Alessia to give us 13 reasons why the boys are rapidly taking over the world.

1. They’re all pretty hot, like, gorgeous. Especially Nick, the youngest, in a cute kind of way.

2. It looks like they’re having a lot of fun on stage. During the Burning Up tour, Nick decided to do a lot of flips. We were like, “What!” Fans didn’t even know that was something he could do.

3. I loved the 3D concert movie. They’re so awesome at playing guitar.

4. They always do charity stuff, and that shows their softer side.

5. They dress pretty nice. I mean, for boys.

6. They’re pretty new and they’re really famous, but they just got their big break and they’re still progressing. They have a long way to go, but it’s fun when a group is new.

7. My friends, my cousins and everyone I know loves them, too.

8. Even my mom is a fan — well, she says she is. I don’t have to demand anymore for her to take me to shows.

9. They’re big inspirations. They say be confident in yourself and don’t worry about what others think.

10. I think they have nice parents. That’s what my mom says.

11. They care about their fans. They’re always signing autographs and always smiling. At their concerts, they point into the crowd and make everybody feel really good.

12. They write good songs like Can’t Have You. That song has a lot of meaning, like if you’re saying there’s a girl you like that you broke up with, but they know they made a mistake, but now they can’t see that person anymore. That’s never happened to me. I’m only 13; I still have a long way to go.

13. They’re more than gorgeous — like, better. I love them with all of my heart.

Jonas Banned From Germany for Being "Too Cute"

The new Jonas Brothers film and tour have both been banned by German authorities complaining that the musicians are too cute, and likely to cause discomfort to fans and audiences. Prime Minister Angela Merckel made the announcement before a closed session of parliament. “Lawmakers are universal in their disdain for this level of cuteness,” the Prime minister said. “They are too cute.”

In a related development, the country is expexted to start considering the appropriateness of Zac Efron’s work for the general populace.

PUERTO RICO
Category: Music
Hey everyone!

Last night we has our 2nd show in Puerto Rico. The first time we came was over one year ago. There were not many people there but we loved it and we have been excited to come back ever since.

Last night we were in an arena with so many people. The people here are so passionate! They were into the music from the first beat and it felt so good to be back on stage doing our songs. It made us even more excited for this year’s tour. We can’t wait to do the new songs and see everyone again.

Today we get to relax and take a little break before heading back to California to finish the new CD. We have been working hard in the studio and we can’t wait for you to hear the music.

We finished filming the TV show, JONAS. We had fun doing it and the cast and crew are amazing! It is going to premiere in May. We really hope you will like it.

Thank you again for all the support.

Psychic Urges Jonas Family To Bless Their Spirited Home

Hollywood’s top celebrity psychic has urged the Jonas Brothers to bless the mansion they’re hoping to buy - because it’s full of dark spirits.

The trio have their sights set on the former home of Tinseltown star Marion Davies, which is one of the city’s listed buildings, but psychic-to-the-stars Kenny Kingston insists the estate comes with an eerie past, including high-profile affairs, illegitimate children, outrageous parties and a mysterious fire which almost wrecked the old place 20 years ago.

Kingston says, “I’ve visited that home and it’s frequented by spirits, good and bad. Marion Davies lived there and Hollywood legend suggests (Kennedy clan patriarch) Joseph Kennedy had an affair with both her and Gloria Swanson there.”

After learning the Jonas Brothers had put in an offer for the Beverly Glen-area address, the psychic held a seance to ask if the spirit world had any information about the Davies home.

He tells WENN, “I’m told a baby was conceived there; it was a boy. There were also a lot of masquerade balls that Kennedy held there and the spirits keep coming back. Not all of them are good spirits. My spirits tell me the house has a history of bad health and, therefore, the Jonas boys will need to guard their health in this house. The place should be blessed before the brothers move in.”

Kingston, who agreed to bless the home where tragic client Marilyn Monroe died - despite warnings the actress would never be happy there, has offered to cleanse the Davis mansion for the Jonases.

He adds, “I do this a lot for celebrities and politicians but I obviously can’t talk about it. Basically, you have to bless the place with salt, placing it around all the window sills and doorways. This helps to dispel bad spirits.”

The Jonas Brothers have reportedly already bought Armani Casa furniture for their new pad, which sits across the road from the family’s existing Hollywood Hills compound, even though the sale has yet to go through.

The boys have reportedly hired top house designer Kenneth Bordewick to advise them on the decor. Sources claim Bordewick has already taken a walk around the grounds.

The insider tells WENN, “He would have been taken aback by what he saw because a large portion of the mansion is smoke damaged from the fire. There’s a lot of mystery about the blaze. I don’t think anyone knows how it started.”

And Kingston fears the place is still prone to a devastating blaze.

He explains, “While we were speaking with the spirits on Tuesday, we could smell smoke. This could just be a reminder that the house was the scene of a fire, but it’s more likely an omen of something that is to happen in the future.”

Jonas Brothers Want To BUY Marion Davies Beverly Glen Area MANSION


Jonas Brothers are hoping to purchase the Beverly Glen area home of late silver screen star Marion Davies, reports PR Inside. Pyschic Kenny Kingston insists that the estate comes with an eerie past, including high-profile affairs, illegitimate children, outrageous parties and a mysterious fire which almost wrecked the place 20 years ago:
‘I’ve visited that home and it’s frequented by spirits, good and bad. [Marion Davies lived there and Joseph Kennedy had an affair with both her and Gloria Swanson there.] The house has a history of bad health and, therefore, the Jonas boys will need to guard their health in this house. The place should be blessed before they move in.’
The brothers have reportedly already bought Armani Casa furniture for theirnew pad, which sits across the road from the family’s existing compound, even though the sale has yet to go through. The boys have reportedly hired top house designer Kenneth Bordewick to advise them on the decor. Sources claim Bordewick has already taken a walk around the grounds.
From Deco Films: It’s either one of these houses. This first house is located at 1700 Lexington in Beverly Hills. It was the first home Marion occupied when she moved to LA. The second one is located at 1011 Beverly Drive and is shrouded in trees on a hilltop. The driveway is a sharp uphill slope with the pool going up the side of the hill in three layers. The Bodyguard was filmed here.

Camilla Was the Jonas Brothers 'Dream Choice"

PopstarOnline is excited to have an exclusive chat with the director of the JoBros instant-classic music video for “Lovebug,” Philip Andelman! His answers provide some fun insight into the making of the video and into how the boys work as we all get revved up for their summer WORLD tour!

PopstarOnline: How did you get to be a music-video director?
Philip: I went to film school, graduated, was unemployed, started fetching coffee on music video sets and after a month a director found out I’d worked for one of his favorite photographers and said, “Come shoot for me!” I’d never operated a 35mm film camera and told him this and he said, “Don’t worry, we’ll give you a crew that will take care of all that…just frame up some great shots!” Two weeks later, I was in Houston shooting cars for a hip-hop video. I wound up shooting second unit (everything not involving the band) for this director for two years and learning everything I now know. Eventually, I began booking my own little videos and slowly worked my way up to the JBs!

PopstarOnline: How did you get the chance to direct “Love Bug?”
Philip: A month or so before, I did a video for Demi Lovato which the label [Hollywood Records] and management (same management) were very pleased [with] so they asked if I’d be interested in working with the Jonases and I jumped at the chance!

PopstarOnline: Did you come up with the yesteryear concept?
Philip: No, they did. They wrote the initial treatment, which had some great elements—a very romantic tone, the rose petals—but some impractical ones as well. They wanted a bunch of couples “coming together” over the course of the video, which I felt would take away from the intimacy of the piece, so the end result was basically a combination of their idea and a few of my own…

PopstarOnline: What was it like working with the Jonas Brothers? What were each of them like personally?
Philip: It was a blast. They are some of the most professional people I’ve ever had the chance to work with. They retain a wonderful, youthful playfulness and combine it with meticulous focus when necessary.

PopstarOnline: Do you think they’re good actors?
Philip: I do.

PopstarOnline: When filming, did fans find out where you were, and what if any fan incidents were there?
Philip: I was a bit sheltered from all the fanfare and remember on the first day stepping out of the ballroom for the first time after shooting for about six hours and seeing cops, security, paparazzi, etc., and being shocked. I literally had no idea any of that was happening. When we shot out in the middle of the ocean, there were literally boats of photographers following us. It was crazy!

PopstarOnline: Where did you film and how did you choose the locations?
Philip: We shot at the Cicada Restaurant in downtown L.A., which we converted into the grandparents’ apartment and ballroom, and then down in San Pedro on the second day to find the house, boats, beaches, etc. The Cicada ballroom was my executive producer’s incredible idea, and the other locations were all found by our location scout/manager.

PopstarOnline: Did you cast Camilla Bella or how did that occur?
Philip: I asked the band for a list of dream choices for the part and Camilla was at the top of the list and we were all really excited when she agreed a few days later!

PopstarOnline: When Camilla showed up on set, was that the first time they all met? What was that like?
Philip: I’m not really sure because I was already busy shooting when they arrived…

PopstarOnline: Did you get to meet Selena Gomez? What was she like?
Philip: I’ve never met her.

PopstarOnline: Was there anything you shot that was not used?
Philip: TONS!!! We shot about three hours of footage for those three minutes!!!

PopstarOnline: THANKS!

Jonas Brothers Promise Pop, Poetry and Horns on New Album

Vines, Lines, and Trying Times 6/15
Photo Courtesy of: Rob Hoffman



Talk about a Jonas bonus: This spring, in addition to debuting JONAS, a Monkees-style Disney series full of original tunes, the Jonas Brothers will also release their third full-length, tentatively titled Lines, Vines and Trying Times.
“The title is a bit of poetry we came up with on the set for the TV show,” says 16-year-old guitarist Nick Jonas, the trio’s main songwriter. “Lines are something that someone feeds you, whether it’s good or bad. Vines are the things that get in the way of the path that you’re on, and trying times — well, obviously we’re younger guys, but we’re aware of what’s going on in the world and we’re trying to bring some light to it.”
With help from producer John Fields, who worked on their previous two LPs, the Jonas Brothers decided to explore a few new sounds, like the horn section that fleshes out the Weezer-ish “Poison Ivy” — a tune about a toxic girl you can’t resist.
“We were really inspired by the Zutons,” says 19-year-old singer Joe Jonas. “We heard their new record, You Can Do Anything, when we were in Europe last year and got everyone around us hooked on it.” The boys started adding horns to a couple tunes and then a couple more. “The horns just keep sounding good!” Joe says. “The players are these amazing Minneapolis cats who have been doing it for years and are just unreal.” (Expect the JBs to bring some brass on the road with them this spring, as well.)
Meanwhile, playing at a charity tribute to Neil Diamond this February helped Nick find his new favorite legend. “You’ve heard those songs before a million times, but if you take a minute to pull them apart, you think, ‘Everything about these songs is so genius,’” says Nick. “It makes you think, ‘I could do that, too, if I just put my head to it like he did.’”

Jonas Brothers Talk About Tour, Fourth Album, and TV Show


With the Jonas Brothers on the verge of embarking on their first world tour, the trio recently held a conference call to discuss their new concert arrangement, their Monkees-inspired JONAS television show and their new June album. “The tour will be in-the-round,” Nick Jonas tells Rock Daily about the arena shows that will plant the band at center court. “We’ve always talked about wanting to do a tour like that, and this has been our first opportunity. It’s a way for us to really connect with our fans.” The tour will kick off this Sunday, March 22, with a show in the Bahamas, after which the JoBros will invade South America, before returning to North America and then heading to Europe.



In our Spring Music Preview, Nick Jonas explained to Rolling Stone the origins of the title of their fourth album Lines, Vines and Trying Times, due out June 15th. “Lines are something that someone feeds you, vines are the things that get in the way, and trying times—well, that’s obvious,” Nick said. (Despite these “trying times,” top-tier JoBros ticket prices have leapt to $89.50 from $49.50 last year.)



Nick hinted at his current influences, mentioning Elvis Costello six times, and Prince four, during the call. “This new album for us I wouldn’t say it’s a big jump but it definitely is a progression in our music and a growth for us. We’re very excited about this new album,” Joe Jonas said. “It feels like just a good growth in our music and it has a lot of more kind of horns in the record and a lot more strings. Also there’s more to the music rather than just a typical kind of relationship song.” For much more on the Jonas’ new album—and upcoming LPs from Dave Matthews Band, Eminem, the Flaming Lips and many more—check out our Spring Album Preview:

THE JONAS BROTHERS MILKSHAKE REVEALED! PLUS: NAME THE SHAKE!

Published by Tamar Anitai on Friday, March 20, 2009 at 12:21 pm.
A few weeks ago I Twittered about a Manhattan restaurant that created a special milkshake for the Jonas Brothers when they were in New York this past summer. Jonas fans, your Twitter reaction to the Jonas milkshake was cuckoo bananas — you wanted to know about the restaurant, where in the restaurant the Jonas Brothers SAT, the milkshake recipe, the exact measurements of the millimeters of milk needed, etc. etc.

SO, once again, I did my Jonasly duties, and I took a cab over to Olana Restaurant where I met up with pastry chef Katie Rosenhouse. Katie, who was recently on the Food Network show Chopped, is just 22 and has an amazing job — SHE MAKES DESSERTS FOR A LIVING! And not only did Katie make that now-legendary Jonas Brothers milkshake, but she helped me recreate my very own Jonas Brothers shake, which, by the way, is made with REAL. FUDGE. BROWNIES. (Sorry, dieters. Zzzz.)

Katie also told me that the Jonas Brothers loved the shakes so much that they requested to meet her in person to thank her. Ridiculously adorable, right? Of course.

So, there’s the story of the Jonas Brothers milkshake. Now, watch Katie show me how to make Olana’s yet-unnamed Jonas Brothers milkshake, and follow along at home if you’ve got a billion fudge brownies sitting around — the recipe’s after the jump!

Also, Katie is SO cool that she offered to let Buzzworthy’s Jonas Brothers fans NAME the Jonas Brothers milkshake. Leave your suggestions in the comments, and I’ll let Katie know my favorite (it’s not a fancy or formal contest or anything… just submit some fun names, mkay?), and they’ll put it on the menu at Olana! Sweet!

Get the recipe after the jump!



Olana Jonas Brothers Chocolate Milkshake
(Serves 3, obviously)

6 scoops chocolate ice cream (homemade or store-bought)
3 Tbsp dark chocolate fondue (*recipe below)
1 ½ cups milk
¼ cup brownies
½ cup whipped cream
2 Tbsp chocolate chips

Method: Combine the chocolate ice cream, fondue, milk, and brownies in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into chilled glasses and top with whipped cream and chocolate chips.

Chocolate fondue
2 ounces of heavy cream
3 ounces chopped dark chocolate
1 tsp sugar
Pinch salt

Method: Bring the heavy cream and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour the hot liquid over the chopped dark chocolate and salt. Whisk to combine. Check blood sugar!

Jonas Brothers - 2009 TIME 200 Finalists



AGE: Kevin, 21; Joe, 19; Nick, 16

OCCUPATION: Musicians, hormone aggregators

PREVIOUS APPEARANCES ON THE TIME 100: 0

PRO: The New Jersey trio racked up more than $60 million worth of allowance money last year. Plus, they’re remarkably scandal-free (we looked).

CON: Teen-pop fans are notoriously fickle — they’re devotees one day, jaded turncoats the next. And the boys have yet to break through to an adult audience, which could give them treasured credibility.

Joe Talks Tour - Shortsleeves / Tank Tops / Shirtless?!

If you read teen magazines or frequent fangirly Web sites, you’ll know that Joe Jonas usually gets labeled as “the cute and funny one” of the Jonas Brothers.
Think of him, then, as a combination of Paul McCartney and Davy Jones (cute), and Ringo Starr and Micky Dolenz (funny), who previously held those titles during adolescent frenzies over the Beatles and the Monkees.
Jonas, 19, doesn’t seem fazed that two boy-band torches have been passed his way. The JoBros are experienced multi-taskers, accustomed to working on CDs and tours and TV series and movies and a book, pretty much all at the same time.
Now his band is headed to Birmingham’s BJCC Arena on Aug. 16, as part of a world tour that will travel to 44 cities in the United States and Canada. The Jonas Brothers will make some stops in Europe and South America as well.
This particular Jonas - who rules millions of hearts along with sibs Kevin, 21, and Nick, 16 - is on the phone and willing to talk about the labels attached to the band members. He’s also game to chat about the fans, the shows, the goals and anything else that will fit into an 18-minute conversation.
So, how does Jonas feel about being called the cute and funny one? Or about the capsule images attached to each of the Jonas Brothers?
“I think it’s fine, because we’re so used to it now, and that’s what people say,” Jonas says. “And it’s kind of true, we’re all different in our own ways. My brothers are great guys and they definitely live up to their nicknames.”
So, then, for the uniformed: Kevin is “the cute and romantic one,” and Nick is “the cute and sensitive one.” Cute, of course, is the unifying factor, and it has helped the Jonas Brothers to become a breakthrough sensation over the past couple of years.
These pop-rockers from New Jersey are undeniably hot, with a No. 1 album in 2008, “A Little Bit Longer,” several Top 10 singles, a handful of Teen Choice Awards and a Grammy nomination as best new artist.
They’re all over the Disney Channel, playing in cinemas with a new 3-D concert film and linked to teen phenoms such as Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato and even Hannah Montana herself, Miley Cyrus.
When it comes to live performances, bookings for the Jonas Brothers tend to sell out quickly, and the venues they dominate have leapfrogged in size from malls and amusement parks to arenas and stadiums.
“On this tour, I think we’re going to try our best to reach people in the very last row,” Jonas says. “We’re doing the shows in the round, and that will be cool. It’s a totally new thing for us. We’ll be surrounded by fans in every direction.”
Jonas says he isn’t at liberty to discuss the special effects touted in the tour announcement, which will include a circular water screen that’s supposed to be one of a kind. Nor is he positive that the Jonas Brothers can beat the Backstreet Boys, who made a spectacular entrance at the BJCC in November 1999, flying from the ceiling on neon-lit surfboards.
“It would be a hard thing to top the Backstreet Boys,” Jonas says, “but we have an amazing team that has ideas that would blow your mind away.”
The Brothers’ publicist does reveal a few specifics: a 140-foot stage, multi-colored lasers and a giant crane that will levitate over the audience. Every high-tech gizmo employed by the band has one ultimate purpose, Jonas says, and that’s “connecting with the fans” in the most thrilling way possible.
Bear in mind, however, that the Jonas Brothers remains a family-friendly ensemble. That means setting strict limits on stage behavior and exposed skin. In the past, for example, other boy bands have been known to strip off their shirts during performances and flaunt their buff bods, inducing shrill screams of approval.
“I don’t really judge people on their own thing,” Jonas says, “but for us, individually, we don’t think that’s necessary to get the audience excited. We do play with the audience, do play with the girls sometimes. I don’t know about taking our shirts off right now - maybe we’ll do short sleeves or tank tops.”

Jonas Brothers Say Recording Leaves A Little Time For Love






In the middle of recording their fourth album, the Jonas Brothers revealed that they hope the new material will show fans and critics that they’re growing as musicians.
“This album is taking steps,” Nick Jonas told reporters in a conference call. “We’re trying to learn as much as we can, continuing to grow.”
The guys are once again working with their longtime producer, John Fields, and cite Elvis Costello, the Zutons, Kings of Leon and even Neil Diamond as influences for the record (due June 15). Kevin described the overall message as “the same old Jonas Brothers, in a sense,” but added that it would have “different musical instruments that are going to add and build to the sound we already have,” including horns and strings.
“[The album is] our journal in songs,” Nick said, adding that the tracks are about “things we’ve gone through, personal experiences we get inspiration from. We’ve also been working on trying to use metaphors … to kind of mask a literal thing that happens to us.”
The guys didn’t reveal the name of their upcoming album, but the new issue of Rolling Stone reports a tentative title of Lines, Vines and Trying Times. With nine songs finished, the guys said they have “a few more to go.”
Eventually the brothers did get to the good stuff — their love lives — revealing that their busy schedule, which includes an upcoming summer tour, makes it hard for them to date. But, they said, they do manage to make time occasionally.
“We’ve got a lot going on in our lives, and I think for us, we’re focused on that,” Nick said. “And we keep a little time for dating, but for the most part we’re focused on working on the TV show — we just finished that — and now with this new tour. We’re really trying to connect with our fans. They’re the most important thing in the world to us.”

Jonas Brothers 4th Album Due June 15th




The Jonas Brothers are nearing completion of their fourth album, due out June 15, which the trio says will take the band in some new sonic directions.
“This album is taking steps,” Nick Jonas told Billboard.com during a teleconference with reporters on Wednesday. “We’re trying to learn as much as we can, continuing to grow.” Kevin Jonas added that “the overall message is its the same old Jonas Brothers, in a sense” but said the group would be “adding more and more music,” including horns and strings and “different musical instruments that are going to add and build to the sound we already have.”
Nick said the songs on the new album — whose title the brothers are not yet revealing — are “our journal in songs,” mostly about “all things we’ve gone through, personal experiences we get inspiration from.” But citing the continuing influence of Elvis Costello, he added that “we’ve also been working on trying to use metaphors…to kind of mask a literal thing that happens to us.”
Other inspirations the trio cited for the new album include the Zutons and Kings of Leon, as well as Neil Diamond, who the Jonases saw perform when they took part in the MusicCares Person of the Year tribute during Grammy Awards week last month in Los Angeles. Nick said the group has already record nine songs with “a few more to go.” John Fields is again producing the album, which was recorded concurrently with the filming of the trio’s new “J.O.N.A.S.” action/adventure/comedy series, which is due to debut in May on the Disney Channel. Several songs from the album will be featured in the show as well.
The Jonases are also gearing up for their first world tour, which begins June 20. The show will be performed in the round on a 144-foot-wide stage that incorporates a large circular water screen. “We’ve developed a new way to (use) this,” Kevin said of the screen. “It will ad a very interesting effect…It will feel like you’re in a whole other world when you come in the arena and see the stage.”
“We wanted to find a way to provide a bigger and better show to our fans,” Joe Jonas said. “The entire bottom half of the arena and the upper desk is esentially a front-row ticket.” He added that the group hasn’t decided yet whether to film the show for a DVD or a feature-film follow-up to their current “Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience.”

JB Say that the Summer Tour Will Be Different than the 3D Movie


It seems like the Jonas Brothers are everywhere these days, and with a summer tour set to kick off in June, they’ll soon be coming to a city near you.
But with a 3-D movie out that captures the guys’ last tour on film, what incentive do fans have to come out and check the guys out this time around?
“This is something brand-new,” Kevin Jonas promised Wednesday (March 18). “We’ve never embarked on an in-the-round tour. The new songs on the new record are very exciting for us. For us, for all the opportunities we get, we’re astonished every day. To be able to visit so many people ourselves will be very great.”
The guys will be touring with “American Idol” winner Jordin Sparks and Honor Society, whom the Jonas Brothers said they were “excited” to hit the road with.
The band also has plans to meet fans on the tour, saying that if you stop by the Honor Society meet-and-greet, there’s a good chance you could meet a JoBro as well. “For us, it’s always about finding alternative ways to meet our fans,” Nick Jonas said. “It’s about finding different ways to do it. It’s about getting creative.”
One pair of fans who should have no trouble meeting the guys on tour are the band’s most famous followers, Sasha and Malia Obama. “I’m sure if they would like to come, there wouldn’t be any problem getting tickets,” Nick said. “And I’m sure they can get their own tickets magically.”

JONAS BROTHERS ALBUM AND 2009 WORLD TOUR NEWS! PLUS: RIDE ALONG WITH THE JBS!

Today there was a big Jonas Brothers press call (how else do you think all magazines and Websites get the same celebrity news on the same day at the same time? Press calls!) where the guys, who I assume are very tan from their trip to the Bahamas, got on the horn and revealed some news about their upcoming world tour and their upcoming album. The most important Jonas Brothers new you need to know…
+ The Jonas Brothers’ new album and the follow-up to A Little Bit Longer, will most likely be out June 15! The album title is still under wraps. (Until it isn’t.) As Diddy likes to say, GET READY!
+ The Jonas Brothers 2009 world tour’s gonna be in the round, which means every seat’s gonna rule! No word on whether or not foam will be involved.
+ The Jonas Brothers aren’t on Twitter (yet… BOO!), but… Garbo, John Taylor, and Jack Lawless are. Frankie Jonas = probably not on Twitter. (Yet!)
+ Nick said he wants to go to college some day, maybe at Northwestern. (This just in: Northwestern apps increased by 17 billion!) But we already knew that Nick Jonas <3s Chicago. Refer back to August 9, 2008, Day 2 of MTV’s “Jonas Brothers: Live & Mobile,” when the Jonas Brothers were driving to Madison Square Garden with their parents, and Nick told us he wants to live in Chicago someday. See people? I am A WALKING ENCYCLOPEDIA OF JONAS BROTHERS KNOWLEDGE!

Jonas Brothers New Album Title!

Okay, so the new title of the Jonas Brothers’ fourth album is to be named: Lines, Vines and Trying Times!


This is great news! It sounds very mature and a well thought out metaphor of their life. Here’s what Nick has to say about the title and what each word means to him and his brothers. With a title that interesting, I hope the album artwork is just as powerful. Do you like the title of the Jonas Brothers’ fourth album?


“Lines are something that someone feeds you, vines are the things that get in the way, and trying times - well, thats obvious,” explains Nick. The album isn’t quite finished yet, but the brothers tell fans to expect more ultracatchy power pop like the new cut “Poison Ivy”, a Weezer-ish tune about a toxic girl you cant resist.”

Kevin Jonas is a Godfather!

Kevin Jonas was spotted shopping for baby clothes at an extremely trendy baby boutique in West Hollywood called Bel Bambini. From a worker: 'I don't get star struck easily at all since we have pregnant celebrities come in on a daily basis, But a couple weeks ago I was shocked to see that Kevin Jonas came into our store. Kevin was with the cutest pregnant blond, I caught her name later on it was Sarah [Everhart].

Kevin must really love this girl and her baby that she is about to have because he dropped an easy $4,000 in our store. We are not supposed to ask our clients questions, but my manager started talking to them and he's going to be her baby girl's godfather. Her little girl is going to be spoiled by Kevin!

Some of Kevin's inventory: 1,650$ Bratt Decor- Monogramed armoire In White With The Initials 'P B H L' On The Doors. 500$ Contemporary Baby Chair In Pink & White (2) 22 $ Baby Hats. 35$ Lady Bug Baby Bootie's [For monogramming, we ask for the baby's name or initials to ask what they want on their doors and he gushed Peyton Bella Hope Lipson. I guess he helped pick out the baby's name!]

Looks like Kevin is going to be a great godfather and a great father in the future!
