I (Kimmy), got the latest issue of Rolling Stones in the mail and under the “Correspondence“. It mentioned the other issue were the Jonas Brothers where on the cover. They also have them feature them in RANDOM NOTES on page 36 talking about storming up New York during the wee their new cd came out and on CHARTS page on 82. Below I typed up of the what it said for the mail section.
RS 1058′s Jonas Brothers cover elicted more than 800 letters — a record for a single story — and not all of them were written in long, looping cursive with hearts above the i’s. Band of Brothers
“Rolling Stones’ recognition of the Jonas Brothers and their musical abilities truly satisfied this reader. Despite being under the Disney umbrella, the siblings remain faithful to their identity.”
- Melissa Arevalo. Astoria, NY
“Any teenage musicians who cite Elvis Costello and Freddie Mercury as influences are OK by me.”
- Tim Merrill. Hollywood
“Your article didn’t inspire me to pick up a Jonas record, but I won’t make fun of them anymore. Just don’t tell the other kids at school.” Stephanie de Paula. Via the Internet
“First ‘The Hills’, now the Jonas Brothers? You’re trying to get my ass kicked on the subway, aren’t you?” Vince Mancini. New York
“My 11-year-old daughter and I saw the Jonas Brothers in a venue that held fewer than 100 people. Being married to Clint Eastwood helped me get hooked up a ‘meet and greet.’ At the risk of sounding like a hormone-laden 43-year-old pervert, I gotta tell you: I saw them again last week, and it was the best concert I have ever been to. The Jonas family is a gold standard for great music and good living.” Dina Eastwood. Monterey, CA

The Jonas Brothers will soon be having a thing called “Stylist Sketchpad” and it’s a little digital booklet that shows the concept and drawings of the Jonas Brothers style for the album cover, “A Little Bit Longer“. We have a first sneek peek of the booklet in our gallery. We will post the UNTAGGED versions when Hollywood Records releases it to the public and it would be then FAIR for the Jonas Brothers and label. If you get the untagged ones, don’t release until the thing is actually up! Enjoy and please credit us! :)

The stylists also had a lot of fun advice for Jonas Brothers, who will make their VMA debut this year. “They look like they came out of a box of crayons,” Gunn said.
Ambrose voiced a different opinion: “I think they are the hottest cool retro kids out, and [I like] the way they interpret, like, old men’s vintage clothing and make it look hot.”
Richie Rich gave the boys his own brand of advice, saying, “I hope they’ll just be who they are. They’re cute guys. It’s a new phenomenon. They should wear Hannah Montana. Well, I don’t mean her — I meant T-shirts with her face on them! Jeez! This is a PG show!”

“ELLEgirl Spends the Day with Kevin, Nick,
and Joe” – ELLEgirl Magazine – Read More
The Jonas Brothers need no introduction. In fact, this super-cute (no need to beat around the bush here) band of brothers is already a national sensation—especially among tweens and teens ages 5 to 15—and shows no signs of slowing down. While their popularity and momentum is often compared to famous boy-band predecessors like ’N Sync, the Backstreet Boys, and Hanson, this trio serves up eye-candy appeal with a wholesome twist. Their lyrics are squeaky clean, they uphold the image of a cohesive family, and each boy has pledged to save himself for marriage—and they have the purity rings to prove it!
ELLEgirl had the chance to spend an entire day—and we mean entire (see the hour-by-hour below)—with the siblings, Kevin, Joe, and Nick, and it was immediately clear that they are not so much a Magic Kingdom–manufactured product (Walt Disney Company gets props for officially putting the youthful heartthrobs on the map) as they are genuinely good guys. Well-spoken, down-to-earth, nice, likable—these are the kind of rising stars that deserve every good thing that comes their way, which is a lot these days.

JJ: So you’re not on the record, just collaborating with them?
CB: If my record is leaked, like a lot of my records keep getting leaked recently, then you might hear me on the demo, but as far everything else is concerned, I’m possibly doing something with them. If they want me on the record, I’ll stay on the record, but I just wanted to write a record for those guys.
“JONAS BROTHERS VMA SNEAK PREVIEW: THEIR PERFORMANCE SET REVEALED!” – MTV Buzzworthy – Read More
From here on the ground, the Paramount Studios lot looks like part world of warehouses, part junkyard, and part microcosm of American cities and landmarks. Fake Midtown Manhattan juts up next to not-Ukranian Village Chicago — that’s next to a fake hospital with no patients or doctors, which sits flush with studios, stages and sets the size of airplane hangers, where movies like Raiders of the Lost Ark, Top Gun, Mission Impossible, The Ten Commandments (heard of it?) and the Hitchcock classic, Rear Window were filmed.
Sitting down on stoops and steps can prove problematic on movie sets — what looks like concrete may be cardboard, and brick might actually be breakaway glass. For example, this “Brooklyn brownstone” looks a lot like the one I live in back in “real” New York. Except this brownstone is Brooklyn, New York, 90038, surrounded by palm trees, not pigeons. The “bricks” are made of paint and something that looks like professional-grade Contact paper, and the back of this not-brownstone is propped up by freshly cut wood two-by-fours, nuts, and bolts.
Unlike real brownstones, this get-up’s on wheels. And also unlike real Brooklyn brownstones, the Jonas Brothers will be performing live on this one this Sunday at the VMAs.
Also, unlike most brownstones, which fit maybe 100 people if you’re really pushing fire codes, the Jonas Brothers are somehow going to squeeze close to 1,000 rabid JB fans into this one. How are they going to pull that off? I’m no Hitchcock, so don’t ask me.
Watch the VMAs this Sunday, September 7 at 9pm sharp to witness the Jonas Brothers-go-to-Hollywood movie magic live. (Plus, watch Kevin Jonas share his brownstone dreams — you and me both, Kevin! — in this video from Jonas Brothers: Live & Mobile.)
“TWIST hangs with Mrs. Jonas!” – Twist – Read More
TWIST: Our readers think that Kevin scratching his nose when he talks to someone is a sign. Is that true?
Mrs. Jonas: I heard that a couple months ago. It’s funny because just at that time I’m like, “Kevin, you’re getting into a habit!” Moms are always saying, “Stop doing that.” It’s just a habit.
TWIST: Do they have any other weird quirks or habits? Anything kind of funny?
Mrs. Jonas: Not out of the ordinary, but things do annoy Mom. Kevin always remakes his bed at night. Being on the road all the time, they have gotten into some horrid habits, like leaving their towels on the floor. They drive me crazy!
TWIST: Who’s the messiest?
Mrs. Jonas: It’s a toss up between Joe and Nick! I used to get mad at them because I would look at their suitcases and say, “Why cant you just refold this?” After my first 8-week tour, I apologized. I said, “I am so sorry that I ever criticized you or ever got on your case because my suitcase looked like that.”

“Jonas Brothers perform in Tampa” – ABC Action- Read More

TAMPA, FL — The Jonas Brothers are performing Thursday at the Ford Amphitheater but ABC Action News was the only local TV station to hang with the guys before their concert.
Our cameras were there as Kevin, Joe and Nick spent the day at the Saddlebrook Resort in Wesley Chapel. They flew into Tampa early this morning.
The brothers took a tour of the fitness center then took a break to have some fun. They built boats using card board and duct tape. The guys then took the man made vessels to the pool for a race. Nick’s boat collapsed soon after getting in the pool, Joe’s boat stayed intact and he won.
After Thursday night’s show the Jonas Brothers head to West Palm Beach for the final concert of their “Burning Up” tour.
This weekend they will be in LA for the MTV Music Video Awards. The brothers are nominated for Best Video of the Year and Best Pop Video. The will also preform their brand new single. Kevin Jonas says you can expect a lot of surprises during the performance and it will be unlike anything they have done before.
After the awards show the Jonas Brothers will join Ellen for the first episode of her new season this Monday, September 8th.
We’ll also have more behind the scenes action from the Jonas Brothers day in Tampa Monday on ABC Action News at Five.

Nick Jonas and his bodyguard Big Rob leave the Jonas home and head to a studio in Burbank, Calif. on Wednesday.
In order to mix things up a bit, the 15-year-old rocker is contemplating about writing songs under an alias!
“Maybe one day I’d write a song and somebody would sing it and then no one would really know that I wrote it,” he said. “It would be kind of exciting, and I had heard that Prince did that, and it was just kind of a goal for me.”

1:23 p.m.: Saddlebrook has set up a team-building exercise for the Jo-Bros and their band, Sean now reports. Each brother leads a different team. They’re given two pieces of cardboard, duct tape and a Sharpie. With those, they have to build boats and “sail” across the pool. No hotel rooms and teenage vixens for these kids!
“Nick is a lot more resourceful. He’s built some sort of teepee, but I don’t know if it’ll float,” Sean says, in a hushed, serious tone more appropriate for a golf tournament than today’s weirdness.
“Kevin’s really having trouble with his makeshift canoe vessel. And Joe’s not making a very good boat. The young one is gonna triumph,” Sean concludes.
Sean goes up to Joe. “You’ve built a winner here,” Sean says, “but you need to reinforce the bottom.” Joe gives Sean a dirty look, sending our hero slinking away.
So how did it all end, you’re screaming, right?
“Nick’s teepee sank immediately. Kevin was like two feet from winning, and they sank, thus allowing Joe and the PoolMaster 5000 to win,” Sean is breathlessly relating. “They all really got into it. But the Joe fist-bump was the most important thing.”…

From Kai – FOUNDATION
My name is Kai Conceicao and I recently started my own foundation in support of the Jonas Brothers and Change for the Children Foundation. While there is much more to come, if you could inform everyone of it, I would greatly appreciate it. Here is my mission statement along with contact information:
Rock For Help is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping those in serious need. The term “serious need” can be interpreted in many different ways in today’s society. To those involved with Rock For Help, “serious need” applies to those who need help to see a better tomorrow. “Serious need” applies to those who also want to help others see a better tomorrow. More specifically, this organization is dedicated to helping young people “rock out” and achieve their full potential by raising funds for several specific organizations/charities that recognize and support the foundation’s mission statement.
What does Rock For Help, the youth, and “rocking out” have in common? Two words: Jonas Brothers. The insanely popular group of brothers from New Jersey have not only achieved their dreams of becoming rock stars but also have given back to those who have the same vision and dream of achieving the impossible. Their charitable organization, “Change for the Children Foundation”, according to the organization’s website, helps, “to support programs that motivate and inspire children to face adversity with confidence, determination and a will to succeed.”. We at Rock For Help not only support this statement but also work to help these children by raising funds and donating said funds to several charities supported by the group’s organization. These charities include:
The United Nations Foundation’s Nothing But Nets
American Diabetes Association’s Diabetes Camp
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital
Children’s Hospital Los Angeles
Summer Star’s Camp for the Performing Arts
By taking just one look at the name of each charity, “serious need” for the youth is not just asking for a spare five-dollar bill to buy a can of soda and a bag of chips. “Serious need” applies to inspiring the youth to achieve and become the very best they can be. With the help of Rock For Help, you are able to help improve the lives of young people and hopefully inspire others to do the same.

ARTICLES: “Is Miley Cyrus’ “7 Things” about Nick Jonas? Check out her necklace!” – LA Times – Read More
Miley Cyrus has denied that her song “7 Things” was inspired by one boy in particular.
But according to Brett Ratner, who directed the “7 Things” music video, it may be Nick Jonas who gave her his dirty socks.
As well as the telltale necklace she’s wearing in the music video.
“The necklace she’s wearing in the video is the necklace [the boy] gave her,” Ratner told MTV. “She’s wearing his diabetes or medical necklace.”
Hmmm. Nick Jonas, who dated Cyrus for two years until late 2007, has Type 1 diabetes and is a spokesman for diabetes awareness.
Cyrus brushed off recent speculation about Jonas being the topic of “7 Things,” telling MTV, “Most of my songs are for the girls who hate their current or ex-boyfriends.”
Maybe. But we think Selena Gomez -– rumored to be dating Nick Jonas now — should pay closer attention to the song lyrics to see if the shoe — and the necklace — fits.

“THE JONAS BROTHERS’ MOTHER’S REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM AMAZES VMA HOST RUSSELL BRAND” – MTV Buzzworthy – Read More
The Jonas Brothers — who are committed to just saying no to sex and drugs — and VMA host Russell Brand, who’s a former drug and sex addict, have more in common than you’d think!
For starters, they all have backgrounds in theater and comedy — Russell started acting as a kid, Nick did Broadway, and Joe originally wanted to be a comedian — they all favor skinny jeans, they’ll all be at the 2008 VMAs on Sunday, September 7th, and they all share great respect for Nick, Kevin, and Joe’s (and Frankie’s!) mom, Denise Jonas.
In a recent interview with MTV UK, Russell Brand commended the Jonas Brothers by way of Denise, commenting, “How the Jonas Mother was able to keep an amp in her uterus is one of the greatest mysteries, because them boys were born already possessing an incredible talent.”
Read the rest of Russell’s MTV UK interview and see what he has to say about VMA VIPs like The Hills girls, Miley Cyrus, and Lindsay Lohan, watch Denise Jonas wake her boys up in the morning, and get more Russell Brand.

…More Paul. ”Les Paul’s contribution to the history of rock ‘n’ roll is beyond compare,” Rock Hall President Terry Stewart said. ”His history as a musician is unparalleled. He has played with everyone from the Andrews Sisters to Eric Clapton and Eddie Van Halen. Those who have witnessed him performing live can testify to his melodic genius and soulful phrasing. His innovations — the solid-body electric guitar, sound-on-sound recording and close miking — helped usher in a new era in recording. The museum’s exhibit, showcasing his innovative instrument design and masterful performance technique, is a cornerstone of our permanent collection.”
His legacy covers generations. When the Jonas Brothers visited the rock hall during a touring stop in Northeast Ohio last month, the Beacon Journal’s Malcolm X Abram noted that they ”marveled at the mechanical mind of . . . Les Paul.”
”Not only was he a great guitar player, but he was a genius,” Joe Jonas said.

Fans go wild for Jonas Brothers
By Robin Riglin – For the CDT
Tuesday may have been the first day of school for most Centre County students, but a party atmosphere at the Bryce Jordan Center helped to shake off the back-to-school blues as the Jonas Brothers rolled into town for a stop on their “Burning Up” tour.
The festivities began in the parking lot, where adoring fans lined up to sign the band’s tour bus, and continued inside the arena, where text messages from adoring fans of the teenage boy band were displayed on video screens.
Well before the first opening act took the stage, the screams from the crowd of mostly tween and teenage girls started and didn’t let up until the brothers’ final curtain call. Aussie band the Veronicas, fronted by two identical twin female lead singers, Jess and Lisa Origliasso, performed a short but energetic set of about a half dozen punk-lite pop songs reminiscent of Avril Lavigne…

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Six people are living in moving boxes in an attempt to win tickets to Friday’s sold-out Jonas Brothers concert in Fort Lauderdale.
The moving boxes are set up at Beach Place in Fort Lauderdale.
The contestants must stay in the boxes and can only leave them for five minutes every six hours in order to go to the bathroom.
The winner will receive a pair of front-row tickets and a meet-and-greet with the band.
If more than one person is living in the boxes by Friday morning, a raffle will decide the winner.

No, that’s not a recommendation, but I know that otherwise rational adults are willing to do stupid, er, unusual things for the sake of their kids when it comes to the Jonas Brothers.
XL 106.7 is offering parents a chance to win front-row tickets for the Thursday, Sept. 4, Jonas Brothers show at Ford Amphitheatre for merely coming to the radio station at 7 a.m. on Thursday morning, standing in the lobby dressed as a Jonas Brother and singing Jonas Brothers songs. Check your self-respect at the door.
I am trying to convince my co-worker Joe to do this, but it’s not going that well. I just want him to remember that wise old saying: Never does a man stand so tall as when he stoops to acting like a dope to win something for his kids…

Some bands would kill to have fans who can sing along with all of their songs. The Jonas Brothers don’t have that problem.
In fact, last night at the Bryce Jordan Center, it would have been hard to find someone who didn’t know the words.
The Jonas Brothers, along with opening acts the Veronicas and Demi Lovato, could do no wrong in front of the crowd of adoring fans that packed the BJC for the University Park leg of the Burning Up Tour.
The Veronicas played a short set, followed by Lovato, a few of whose songs were surprisingly dark considering the bubblegum pop that dominated the rest of the night. When she asked the crowd, “How many of you out there have had your hearts broken?” she was met with thousands of preteen screams despite the unlikelihood of that possibility. Lovato came back onstage later in the show to perform with The Jonas Brothers, her co-stars from the Disney movie Camp Rock.
When the Brothers finally began their set, the entire arena was filled with piercing shrieks. The three rose up out of the stage on a moving platform that then lifted them high into the air before setting them down again. The terraced stage was a spectacle to behold, complete with an entire string section, massive LED screens and walls of fire…

Michael Phelps joins the Jonas Brothers
Searching for a way to continue keep his celebrity from waning now that the Olympics Games have ended, Michael Phelps on Tuesday announced that he is joining the Jonas Brothers.
Phelps, who will be known as as Mike Jonas, is now the oldest Jonas. Insiders say that could help Kevin Jonas, who at 20 was previously the oldest, regain more boyish appeal with the groups’ younger fans, while also keeping Phelps in the spotlight.
“Let’s be honest, nobody really gives a sh*t about swimming except for two weeks every four years,” said Joe Simpson, who recently become Phelps’ manager. “Now that he’s a Jonas Brother, Americans will actually know who Mike is and pay attention to him for the next three years and 50 weeks.”
Mike Jonas is expected to become the roguish prankster of the group, with a humorous but slightly more mature sensibility that Walt Disney Company executives hope could broaden the brothers’ appeal from girls aged 8-12 to girls aged 8-15. It is still being determined what instrument he will pretend to play and who will do voice overs when he sings.

Preteen pop phenomenons get ‘second bash at success’
Heath McCoy, Canwest News Service
Published: Wednesday, September 03, 2008
Just over a year ago, being part of a boy band was considered to be the dorkiest gig in pop.
Unless your name was Justin Timberlake, the mid-2000s was a cruel time for those who rode the boy-band boom of the late ’90s.
The Backstreet Boys and Hanson struggled to launch comebacks and found it hard to buck the lame-o stigma of having been a part of the dreaded preteen pop trend.
Jordan Knight, a former member of New Kids On The Block — whose late ’80s breakthrough set the template for the modern boy band — was a cast member on the humiliating reality series The Surreal Life, featuring washed-up celebs.
Members of *NSYNC wanted to reunite in 2006, but their dream was nixed by bandmate Timberlake who had made the rare transition to a successful solo career. When MTV asked him why he didn’t want to take part in a reunion, Timberlake’s dismissive reply was telling. “What we did doesn’t work now,” he said.
Even the latest bubble gum sensation The Jonas Brothers felt the hard times. In early 2007 they lost their deal with Columbia Records after their debut disc failed to sell 100,000 units.
But today those Disney darlings are on top of the pop world. Their latest disc A Little Bit Longer debuted at No. 1 on the charts and it’s expected to be one of the year’s top-selling CDs…
“Jonas Brothers: Boxers or Briefs?” – OK! Magazine – Read More
September 03, 2008
It’s the age-old conundrum: boxers or briefs.
But for the Jonas Brothers, only American Eagle boxer briefs will do!
On August 26, the Jonai treated their dad, Kevin, pal Demi Lovato and band members to a $5,000 shopping spree at A.E. before their concert in Pittsburgh.
The Joe, Kevin and Nick picked up boxer briefs and dorm tees, an insider tells OK!. Apparently when it comes to fashion, they never go thong!
It’s no wonder the boys were feeling generous. As their friends filled their shopping baskets, the brothers were well and truly owning the album charts, with not one but two titles in the Billboard Top 10.
A Little Bit Longer was number one for the second week running, while the soundtrack to their Disney flick Camp Rock was at number 8 — only one place lower than the previous week.
And, anyway, what’s a little $5000 shopping spree when you’ve just dropped a massive $2,895,000 on a new mansion in Texas?
Maybe while they’re in the mood for shopping the guys should pick out three XXXXL wallets as well.

Howeve, so the radio station is having a contest and you must be homeless for a week, they have a location by the beach and all the rules are on www.y100.com and who ever wins gets front row seats and backstage passes (not to mention that there are 3 tropical storms heading that way).

KIMMY: Hey Everyone!
It’s Kimmy. I’m still in Las Vegas but I am going home today. It’s a 10 hour drive back home. I finally got ahold of some internet access but I can’t update. A lot of the updates might be coming late today because all my co-webs have started school now. But I want to say thanks for still staying tune. If we we forgot any news in the past few days make sure you visit our brother sites: Kevin Jonas Online and Joe-Jonas.com! I have heard from a few friends texting me that Nick Jonas and Inferno won the DC Games! Congratulations!!! Oh, and I had a chance to visit the EXACT Titanic Museum the Jonas Brothers went to (the one shown in Living The Dream) and before I entered the front desk where they check your tickets, they had a frame with the Jonas Brothers (with the band, Frankie, & Maya) together on the grand staircase. I didn’t get to take a photo of the photo because they would be like get mad. However, I did get snuck in some sweet shots (you weren’t allowed to have a camera or videocamera, so shh), so I was just as lucky as JB. If you want to hear more of that, I will be updating my myspace tonight or tomorrow when I get home with tons of pictures and more.
**If you have any news and donations to the site, please send it to our email: nickjonline@gmail.com. Don’t forget your name so we can credit you somehow!**
EMILY: School starts for me tomorrow, so updates might not come from me everyday.
