Jonas Brothers Stop By The White House, Encourage Kids To Get Active

Thousands visit every year, but very few leave a permanent mark on the White House. The brave and intelligent men and women who shape history. The powerful leaders of the free world.

The popular trio, Nick, Joe and Kevin, were in Washington, D.C., on Monday (August 18) to attend a briefing on diabetes and tape a public-service announcement about national parks, CNN reported. While there, they signed their names to the wall of a swimming pool that was also signed by, among others, first lady Laura Bush.
"There's other names up there that are just astounding, some of our favorite artists and politicians," Joe Jonas told the news network. "But it's going to be really cool to see that in 10 years, 20 years from now."
In the end, the Jonas Brothers might not be the most famous graffiti artists in the world, but you wouldn't know it from the sensation their appearance caused at the White House. According to CNN, Vice President Dick Cheney even brought his three granddaughters to meet the singing siblings.
It wasn't all fun and games for the famous brothers, though, who have visited the White House under less serious circumstances twice before, both times in 2007. For Nick Jonas, who suffers from diabetes, the morning briefing was a chance to learn more about the disease while solidifying his image as the face of the illness, he said, insisting that those afflicted have to stick together to make it through.
"A lot of kids feel lonely when they first get diagnosed with diabetes. I'm just so encouraged at the end of the day because all I'm trying to do is make it through another day managing diabetes," Nick Jonas told CNN. "They're just doing the same thing. We're all there for each other."
Nick was diagnosed with diabetes when he was 13.
Also important, they stressed, was a chance to tell kids about exercise, which they did in a PSA encouraging children to visit national parks.

"We run around onstage constantly for about an hour and 45 minutes, and we know what that can do. You just feel great at the end of the night and when you wake up in the morning," Kevin Jonas told the White House press corps.
So given that they've visited the Bush White House three times, and are noted Evangelical Christians, does that mean they'll be voting Republican?
Not so fast, Kevin said, refusing to endorse either candidate for this year's election.
"But we do — me and Joe are both of voting age — so we do endorse voting, getting to know the issues, learning about the candidates and [making] a decision for yourself," he said.

The Jonas Brothers' Wax Appeal

The Jonas Brothers:Kevin;Joe and Nick showed up for the unveiling of their very own wax figures at Madame Tussauds in Washington, D.C., on Monday. While the band has only been out for a few years, this a great accomplishment.
The first 50 rabid fans allowed into the exhibit from pawing at the faux bros. The exhibit does a great job of capturing the JoBros in wax.

Jonas Brothers Talk About Girlfriends, TV Series, Ben Stiller Flick On 'TRL'

There are tons of girls out there who would die to know how to win the hearts of theJoBros. And they'd better listen up, because the boys gave a primer on "TRL" Wednesday (August 13), as part of the show's Jonas Brothers Fan Week.
Want to date Kevin? Save the whining for your friends. "We're not ever really with people 'cause we're always traveling," Kevin said. "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!' "
Joe has a similar stipulation for his potential love interests. "This is hard, but if they are nagging and annoying, you're like, 'Go away.' "
Well, 15-year-old Nick has a slightly more charitable requirement. "They have to be good to their moms," he said.
This information may come into play when the boy take their act to their forthcoming Disney Channel television series. Earlier this year, Joe talked their up coming show : "We are secret agents, and our cover is that we're a band." The series was tentatively titled "J.O.N.A.S." ( Junior Operatives Networking As Spies), but now it appears that approach has been changed.
"The concept is going to change a little bit," Kevin said. "Everyone knew it was going to be about spies, and that's changed a little bit, I guess, 'cause in the course of the last two years, the band has changed a little bit. We're going to be the Jonas Brothers going through life — like, going to school, but still being the Jonas Brothers."
The brothers also revealed that they recently met "Tropic Thunder" star Ben Stiller, and that a collaboration could be in the works.(yayy) "I love Ben Stiller and we met him just recently," Joe said. "We were talking with him about doing a movie."
Speaking of collaborations, the dudes recently worked with new Disney star, Demi Lovato on her album. JB said it was a great experience ,but a tad bit strange. "It was weird writing a song talking about a boy!" Joe laughed. Kevin added, "We were like, 'So this is what girls go through.' "
Also, the guys have just announced that they will be joining Miley Cyrus Nick's ex, to co-headline the Concert for Hope benefit on September 14. The concert will help benefit the cancer research and treatment organization City of Hope. Helping others seems to be very important to the Jonas Brothers.

The Jonas Brothers shut down NYC's Apple Store!

What was the star power to shut down an Apple Store in Manhattan? No, not a major computer virus,, it's the Jonas Brothers.
Tuesday night—the day the band’s third album, A Little Bit Longer, went on sale—the trio drew in the masses to NYC's SoHo Apple Store for a "private" performance. Interestingly enough, the hour-long set wasn’t announced publicly until Tuesday morning, yet insatiable fans had been lined up since Monday night. The gals put their dedication on display: While the Brothers sang "When You Look Me in the Eyes," one group of very excited fans held a sign that proudly screamed, "Here since 4 a.m.!" The insane thing about all this, too, is that most of the attending fans had already seen the JoBros somewhere else during the week: The Apple Store show was merely the cherry on top of the week of Jonasmania in NYC, highlighted by the band's guest-hosting stint on TRL, a Good Morning America concert that drew 15,000 eardrum-busting fans into the city's Bryant Park, and three sold-out shows at the lovely Madison Square Garden.
The Apple Store event, however, was intimate—and the perfect celebration at the end of a day that saw their new album, A little Bit Longer hit N0.1 on both Amazon and iTunes by early morning. Their first, out-of-print album, meanwhile, now fetches up to $350 on sites like eBay. I'm guessing that’s approximately three months’ worth of the average tween’s allowance. Just 450 fans—including a Croc-wearing Harry Connick Jr. and his very happy daughter—were allowed inside (free of charge, i might add) for the 12-song Apple Store set, set-off by "That's Just the Way We Roll." Hands down, though, the screaming fans, most of them wearing puff-paint covered t-shirts, while nearby adults inserted ear plugs, most enjoyed "A Little Bit Longer," the ballad Nick wrote about his battle with diabetes. Several diabetic girls were in the crowd, as evidenced by shirts that proclaimed things like, "I'm Not Diabetic! I'm Sugar Challenged!"
The night’s final tune couldn’t have been more fitting: Summer hit “Burnin’ Up” .

There's no doubt about it, the JoBros are on fire!

Nick' s Cool Wish List

Nick's bday comes a few weeks after the "Burnin' Up" Tour ends, so he was a little bit unsure on where he would be on September 16, his birthday. The cutie is hoping that his older brothers get him something. " We always try to get each other something," Nick tells J-14. " We're brother, but we have our ways of getting gifts wherever we are."

Nick's bream to score a car. "I'm going to start driving soon, and green is definitley the way to go," states Nick. Perhaps someone should drop some hints to Joe and Kevin.

The Jonas Like the Same Type of Girl

The Jonas Brothers have been very busy lately. Between promoting their third album, touring, and beginning production their own TV show, J.O.N.A.S, the JoBros don't time to sit still, let alone a date.

Months of touring have kept the boys bonding, especially over girls. All three of the brothers like the same type: a smart, funny girl who can understand their very demanding schedule.

"Someone who can make you laugh and be okay with just talking to you on the phone for a while instead of seeing you." spills Kevin to J-14.

While Kevin is hands down the most talkative of the brothers, Nick knows the true importance of phone minutes as well." I want an intellectual girl who I can have a nice conversation with, because we'll talk more on the phone than in person," states Nick. " Looks don't really matter as long as the heart is right."

Even though the brother have very similar taste, their personalities come out when flirting especially Joe's. "He'll walk up to a girl on the street and say, 'Hey how are you doing?'" Kevin dishes. " Then the girl and look...as she;s supposed to know who he is! It's really funny.." "Twenty percent of the time they think I'm weird," Joe admits. Nick likes to be a tad bit subtle. " I just take a different approach instead of being obnoxious!" jokes the curly-haired cutie.

Well there you have it the JoBros want a sweet very understanding girlfriend, I'm sure that there are many fans who could fit that role.

The Jonas Brothers head to London

One of Jonas Brother's favorite moments ever occurred while they group was touring in Europe, the guys played an acoustic set on top of an open-air double decker bus in central London. After the ride was over the JoBros headed to HMV music store to play a free show for 280 people, weren't they lucky. The band was amazed be the warm reception from their fans across the pond. The blogged," They were so loud!"
