Nick Jonas Wants to be President

Musician Nick Jonas is keen to make the move into politics, and has wanted to serve his country since he was a young child.

“I’ve always said that I would like to be president," Nick said. "It’s kind of my whole thing. I’m starting the campaign now.”

The 16-year-old star also spoke about his struggle with diabetes – a medical condition where the body does not produce enough or respond properly to insulin, and which can lead to renal failure and blindness - saying he wants to raise awareness of the condition.

He explained to CNN show ‘The Situation Room’: “I’m here to basically raise awareness and encourage people to continue to do what they can to raise awareness as well in their own circle and on a broader scale," he explained on the CNN show 'The Situation Room.'

“Obviously, we’ve made some advances in technology to better manage our diabetes, but we’re hoping for a cure one day, and that’s what the main goal is.”

Joe Jonas Injures Brother Nick

That's what Joe Jonas gets for showing off. During their concert in Philadelphia this weekend Joe Jonas decided to give the crowd a taste of his drumming skills. To bad for his brother Nick, when it ended with him getting his hand smashed hard with a drumstick by Joe. Way to go Joe.

Several stars are hosting New Year’s Eve parties in Las Vegas. Usher will ring in 2009 at The Bank while Lance Bass and Denise Richards will party at Prive. Carmen Electra will rock Tao and Fergie is hosting a bash at Lavo. Meanwhile on the east coast, Macy Gray is hosting a Greenhouse party at Setai, Mario Lopez will be in NYC at Marquee and David Schwimmer and Mira Sorvino will appear at Nikki Midtown.

Meanwhile, over in NYC, The New York Police Department is being cautious over the "mob scene" that could result when the Jonas Brothers perform in Times Square at Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest on Wednesday night. What were they thinking? New York City is crazy enough on New Years, but now they decide to throw in the Jonas Brothers and all their crazy tween fans!? Reports are stating that the police are planning on putting extra security all around Times Square to keep the brothers and their fans safe!



Jennifer Aniston plans to toast the New Year in Mexico! The star of the Christmas box office record holder Marley & Me arrived in Los Cabos over the weekend where she plans to spend the holiday with Courteney Cox Arquette, her husband David and their daughter Coco. Will boyfriend John Mayer be there, too? We are thinking... YES!

Joe Jonas Gets an Unwanted Christmas Present



Here's a video of the goings-on in the ring of Hell that Dante missed (aka a Jonas Brothers concert). In this clip, Joe Jonas gets a gift that he starts to grab at first (at the 0:28 mark), but when he realizes it's a bra of some sorts, he drops it like it's on fire! He's totally saying to himself, "Ewwww! Girl cooties!"

I also need to slap my eye balls for actually thinking Joe Jonas looks semi-hot here. Why would my eye balls send that message to my brain?! Ugh. I mean, he's a Jonas brother, he's barely legal, and he has a 1920s bob!

Let's just pretend this never happened. A Jonas brother?! Maybe I'm officially becoming a 14-year-old girl. Gross.

It's All Jonas Bros. On Album Charts


U.S. "tween" sensations the Jonas Brothers have scored their first No. 1 album with "A Little Bit Longer", Billboard.com reported Wednesday.

Even though the brothers' top ranking on the weekly Billboard 200 chart was expected, the numbers still impressed industry analysts, with 517,000 copies sold last week in the United States, as measured by Nielsen SoundScan.

Billboard also pointed out the Jonas Brothers have pulled off a rare feat of having two albums simultaneously in the top tier of the chart. Their self-titled second album rose to 10th with 31,000 copies sold in its 54th chart week. The newspaper said that hasn't happened since since 'N Sync did it in 1999 with "Home for Christmas" at No. 10 and "'N Sync" at No. 2.

And as if that weren't enough, the young trio make a third Top 10 album chart appearance with the soundtrack to the Disney film "Camp Rock", in which they star. The soundtrack maintained its No. 8 for a second week with 50,000 copies sold, Billboard said.

Billboard said the soundtrack to "Mamma Mia!", last week's chart-topper, slid

Jonas Brothers' hate girls who nag



The Jonas Brothers hate girls who nag.

The 'S.O.S.' singers - brothers Kevin, 20, Joe, 18 and Nick, 15 - have ruled out ever dating someone who moans all the time.

Kevin said: "We're not ever really with people because we're always travelling. And you get on the phone and they're like, 'My day is awful, blah,' and you're like, 'This is not what I need right now!' "

Nick, who previously dated 'Hannah Montana' star Miley Cyrus and is now romancing Selena Gomez, also insists he wouldn't consider getting involved with a girl unless she has a healthy relationship with her mother.

He added to MTV show 'TRL': "They have to be good to their moms."

Meanwhile, Joe has revealed the musical trio have met with comic star Ben Stiller to discuss working on a film together.

He said: "We met him just recently. We were talking with him about doing a movie."

They’ve been living it up in New York City this week gearing up for the release of their new album “A Little Bit Longer” (in stores today!). And this morning the Jonas Brothers were spotted on their way to ABC Studios.

Kevin, Nick, and Joe all looked dapper as they left their Manhattan hotel and made their way to their scheduled appearance on Live! with Regis and Kelly.

And last night the JoBros took the stage at Madison Square Garden for yet another sold out show on their current tour, returning to their hotel afterwards.

Earlier in the day they stopped by MTV’s TRL to get fans hyped up about their new album. Nick exclaimed, "We're doing so good and we're just so excited. Tomorrow the new record releases. It's just a really amazing time in our lives." Joe added, "We're so excited we're going to go to Virgin Megastore across the street and wait in line [to buy our new album, A Little Bit Longer]."

Jonas Brothers' fan disbelief



The Jonas Brothers say fans often don't believe they are related.

The 'S.O.S.' singers - brothers Kevin, 20, Joe, 18 and Nick, 15 - have revealed their fans continually ask whether they are actually from the same family after rumours surfaced claiming they are not related.

Kevin said: "People seriously ask us all the time, 'Are you guys really brothers?' "

Joe added to Rolling Stone magazine: "It's like, no, we named our band Jonas Brothers just for fun."

The trio also spoke about their love lives, with Joe admitting he still finds it strange when he hears other celebrities are attracted to him.

He explained: "It's funny when you find out there are other celebrities with crushes on you - like when I read that Lauren Conrad from 'The Hills' liked me."

Nick - who previously admitted he was "honoured" when he was romantically linked to 27-year-old US socialite Kim Kardashian - revealed he is still "very close" to Miley Cyrus, who he was rumoured to be dating.

He said: "We were neighbours when we were on tour together. It was good. Just really close. But it would crack me up ? I would read these stories online, people saying things that were completely untrue."

Jonas Brothers Make Rolling Stone Cover


The Jonas Brothers have a hot summer tour going on right now! Now, Nick, 15, Joe, 18, and Kevin, 20, have hit the big time and made it to the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. The young brother's look pretty badass.

Here’s an excerpt from the mag’s feature article about the boys' appearances:
"...the brothers Jonas — Nick, 15, Joe, 18, and Kevin, 20 — are preparing to start their show. All three boys stand less than five-feet-ten, and each possesses a fantastic mane of dark-brown hair. Joe's hair is ironed flat. Kevin used to flat-iron his, but now it's curly again, and he's got thick sideburns; Nick, the brothers' chief songwriter and leader, has always kept the curls. Under Nick's fitted brown linen suit is an insulin pump, adhered to his lower back. Nick was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in 2005 and must carefully monitor his blood-sugar levels; the band's mammoth bodyguard, Big Rob, carries an insulin shot at all times in case of an emergency. "
Didn't Big Rob used to protect Britney Spears herself, man, this guy has quite a resume?
