Kevin Jonas poses for the magazine that just honored him with spot in their 2008 Sexiest Men’s List. People Magazine had to do some convincing to reassure him that he was the chosen one out of the brothers.
He just celebrated his 21st birthday in Cabo San Lucas a couple of weeks ago with friends and family, talked a little about the confidence factor he claims he always had:
He shared, “I can walk into a room and make friends with anybody. That confidence level is something that I have.”
Check out People’s 2008 Sexiest Men issue — Zac Efron and Jesse McCartney also made the list. It is on sale now.
Taylor Swift’s “White Horse,” a track from her new album Fearless that was featured on the season premiere of Grey’s Anatomy is doing great.
The soulful song will debut at #13 on Billboard’s all-genre Hot 100 singles chart this week, which will give her the 6th Top 20 debut of 2008 breaking the all-time Billlboard record for the number of Top 20 debuts in a calendar year by any artist!
The previous record was five Top 20 debuts this year and that was held by her ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas and his brothers.
Taylor’s other five songs that made the Top 20 include “Change”, “Fearless”, “You’re Not Sorry”, “You Belong With Me” and “Love Story”.
Fearless also sold 592,304 units in its first week of sales (her last album sold 3.5 million).
In comparison, The Jonas Brothers sold over 525,000 units of their latest album, A Little Bit Longer (their last album sold 1.5 million).
Joe Jonas did a nasty thing when he dumped Taylor Swift during a 27-second phone call last month, and she’s now decided in her own “Fearless” way to publicly state that he cheated on her with 10,000 B.C. actress Camilla Belle.
“They’ve been together for months,” Taylor told OK!. “That’s why we broke up.”
I notice she says ‘That’s why WE broke up.” Poor thing, I guess it is still too painful to admit she was dumped by him. While there is NO easy way to break things off with someone, it’s sad he didn’t have the decency enough to do it in person, face to face… before he hooked up with someone else.
Joe who is 19, and Camilla who is 22, met and got to know each other when she starred in the brothers’ video “Lovebug.”
“We saw her in [10,000 B.C.] and, to be honest, we all fell in love with her,” Joe’s younger brother, Nick, has said. “We said why not have her in a music video?”
Just read this latest blog entry by Taylor Swift who was recently dumped (by phon) by her ex, Joe Jonas. At the end she says she’s just sitting around eating cool whip and trying to think of things to do with her time… kind of sad isn’t it? I also found it interesting that she was listening to Kelly Clarkson’s song called Low which is about someone doing something low. I wonder if she was thinking that his breaking up over the phone because his “people” told him it was what was best for his career being one of the lowest things to do. Then again, he is still a child and that is what children do. A man would have broken it off face to face.

AMA’s and life.
Hey guys!
I’m so excited, you got me nominated for an American Music Award this year!! I’m nominated in the “Favorite Female Country” category. Thank you so much for making that happen for me again this year!! It’ll be so cool to go to the AMA’s again. I’m performing, and I have so many ideas that we’re working out for the performance. And hey, I’ve never won an AMA before…….. Maybe this year? It’s completely up to you, because it’s fan-voted. (yesssss) I think you have to login and stuff to vote, but it would make me soo happy if you did.

In other news, I just got back from a 5 show run on the road. Now I’m sitting in my kitchen..on the counter. Eating cool whip. And trying to think of things to do with my free time. Other than talking to my cat and making playlists of sad songs. Sad songs are awesome, by the way. I’m also editing a new video, so expect that to be up here in a few days. Tomorrow I do more album media preparation/interviews/taped performances/blahblahblahh for album release week. Basically what you do around an album release is you start taping things way in advance, so they can air on TV when the album comes out. So we’ve been doing all of that for months. Then my best friend, Abigail, is coming in from college (she’s too far away. I’m trying to convince her this whole college thing needs to work around our friendship and not be so time consuming.) Then this weekend, we play in Nashville with Rascal Flatts. And every day, my album is closer to being OUT. Yesssss.
I love you so much for your comments. Thank you for saying nice things to me. You have no idea how much that really, really can make my day. You’re what makes me smile.

Low
By Kelly Clarkson
Release date: 2003-12-30
Check out the clip of The Jonas Brothers at Piazza Duomo (Cathedral Square) in Milan during a taping of MTV Italy’s Total Request Live on Sunday.
Joe and brothers Kevin and Nick sang their hit song “Burning Up” for their fans in Italy.
The Jonas Brothers also attended a private party for Italian JB fans sponsored by La Feltrinelli, Italia 1, Radio 105, and the Disney Channel.
In other related news… Nick Jonas recently revealed that he was adopted as an infant:
“For a long time, we kept this secret in our family, to support our image as a band of three brothers, but I have to tell the truth,” said Nick. “I don’t think it will hurt our image — if anything, it makes us stronger. We love our fans and we know they will support us no matter what.”
Nick was born to close family friends of Denise and Kevin, the other boys’ biological parents. Several months before Nick’s birth, the couple decided they wanted an abortion. But Kevin, a former pastor, “doesn’t believe in that,” Nick said. “So he and my mom offered to take me in. They’ve been awesome parents, nothing but supportive, and I couldn’t ask for anyone better.”
Nick previously shocked his fans back in 2005 when he announced at a concert that he had been diagnosed with Type I diabetes.
The Jonas brothers were on set filming their “Lovebug” music video today. It’s their second official single off their third studio album, A Little Bit Longer.
Apparently they were spotted going into their trailer for a quick costume change despite the production assistants attempts to keep them covered up under umbrellas and blankets as they ushered them from the set to the trailer.
If you look real close you can see Jonas shoes and their bodyguard Big Rob’s shoes underneath the blankets!
The release date of the “Love Bug” music video is still unknown.
The Teen Choice Awards Winners List is out and the brothers surfed away with multiple surfboard trophies at Sunday’s 10th annual Teen Choice Awards. The awards were selected by over 30 million votes cast online by teens, to honor celebrities in TV, film, music, sports.
They received six awards: choice breakout group, love song, music single, song of the summer, male red carpet fashion icons and male hotties.
Throughout the taped ceremony, the Jonas Brothers appeared on stage to answer questions from teenagers on Web cameras. The three of them were strapped to harnesses and hoisted over the audience at one point during the show. The fans loved it!
