For You Jonasholics
The Jonai are on the cover of the new issue of Billboard.
And, PerezHilton.com has an exclusive preview of the article!
Here's what the Brothers have to say…
On the new album:
- Catchy lead single “Burnin’ Up” is reminiscent of Maroon 5 and Justin Timberlake. It’s destined to be a crowd pleaser. It’s no coincidence that the upcoming tour takes its name from the track.
- The next single, “Love Bug,” is a complete departure for the band. Stripped down at the beginning—and featuring an interlude with the sound of Joe Jonas tap-dancing—it builds to a traditional, catchy pop ending.
- Scheduled third for release is “Shelf,” which has guitar-driven undertones much like early Weezer. Finally, there’s “A Little Bit Longer,” a ballad written by Nick Jonas out of fear and frustration when he was diagnosed three years ago with type 1 diabetes.
On song writing:
- “Pretty much we were writing all these songs when we were on tour, and we didn’t have time to go into a studio and record,” Joe Jonas says. “There’s a lot of time when you’re on the tour bus where there’s a lot of waiting around. We have like four hours in each day where we could really do something.”
- “When we’re writing together, we’re really open to each other’s ideas, which I think is really important when you’re writing songs,” Nick Jonas says. “No one can be closed-minded, because then nothing is going to work. For us, it’s really just one of our passions. It’s kind of our roots.”
On Jonas mania:
- Among Jonas merchandise, there is "even a shirt dedicated to the youngest brother, 7-year-old Frankie, the 'Bonus Jonas.'” (Frankie has his own band. They do house and club music. No kidding.)
- “We have a slogan that we say every night: ‘Living the dream, baby, living the dream,’ ” Kevin Jonas Sr. says. “We gather together and shout it out, as a group, because they get to do what very few people could even imagine and dream. But at the same time, we prioritize that they have their own time. It has to be healthy.”
- (Case in point: All three Jonas brothers were the picture of earnest, professional politeness during their Billboard interviews. Half an hour later, while talking to their father, they sounded like typical loud teenage-boy maniacs in the background.)

Perez you make me so happy. You never bash on the Jonas Brothers like everyone else does. (:
Hey, gg. Why don't you shut the heck up?! They are NOT gay! I firmly believe that all three of the boys are 100% straight! You're just jealous because they're 100 times better than you! I bet your just a fat blob that needs to get a life!
I LOVE THE JONAS BROTHERS!
they are soo amazing and are doing such a great job with everything!
All of you people are just jealous.they are awesome and they aren't gay.just because they actually have fashion sense and write good music doesn't make them gay.I wanna see some of you try to pull that off..they are hot.
omg why does everyone think that they are gay?… just because they actually sing goood and have "fashion sense"? you people are just jealous the jb are awesome. id like to see some of you try to pull that off.
ahh im going to the burnin' up tour:)
jonas brothers are EFFING HOTT
Although I personally am a fan of the Jonas Brothers, I do agree that they do seem overexposed, which I believe is probably because of Disney Channel. I see it as a kind of Lizzie McGuire type of thing. They'll be big (like Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus - but that's ANOTHER story…), but will soon fade out as Disney introduces the next round of young stars. I mean Nick may be 15, but Joe and Kevin are 18 and 20. They'll get tired of it eventually, and we'll have new stars to love/hate.
Re: yendo –
Then why are you on his site again?
Re: jj. – I Second That!
Re: Brahm – Exuse them if they're actually more focused on their music like musicians should be, instead of getting laid everynight. I bet you havent even gotten laid yourself.
If you don't like them then don't open up an article about them. Also chill out over their outfits it's a PHOTOSHOOT they arent going to wear everyday normal clothes. Seriously. And all of you who have problems with their morals its because you have NONE of your own so you dont know what it means to be an upright person. So shut up! And whether you think so or not they are amazing performers and they will be around for a long time and if you dont like it you can get over it.
when will this be available to buy?
THEY ARE AMAZING!
burnin up=amazing
love bug will be EVEN MORE AMAZING if thats possible
Re: Keith –
OH HELL NO BITCH!
IM GONNA HUNT YOU DOWN AND KILL YOU!
NONE OF THEM ARE FAT! WTF?! ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED?!
yummy…..loves it
I am a hugeee Jonas Brothers fan and I honestly don't see anything wrong with them. Everyone is a little different and have their own way of doing things… including them. These three boys are extremely talented. They seem like complete gentlemen and from anyone I have talked to that actually knows them, they are the nicest guys. I am soo happy for them and their success. And seriously who are you guys to bash them. Have any of you every been as successful as them?
