Nick Jonas speaks on diabetes in Washington

Presidents and kings had spoken from that podium. Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev explained how he would bury American capitalism. And Archbishop Desmond Tutu explained how peaceful resistance could break South African Apartheid.

But Monday, there was no king on the National Press Club stage. The guest speaker was the newest prince of pop, Nick Jonas. And although the capacity crowd probably contained more teenage girls than any luncheon in the Press Club's storied 101-year history, the 16-year-old singing sensation didn't even sing.

Instead, the energetic performer known as “Mister President” because of his lofty aspirations and limitless drive, delivered what may turn out to be the first speech of the 2040 presidential campaign.

Nick, the best known of the three Jonas Brothers, described his four-year battle with diabetes and why he had decided to go public with his struggles. His message, as disciplined as any politician's, was simple: “Diabetes is manageable. ... I can live out my dream with diabetes.”

Now, as the young singer/songwriter tours the country with his older brothers, he leads a highly structured life of medical tests, glucose meters, insulin pumps, carb counting and careful dieting.

Over the past four years, the Texas native has become a national spokesman for juvenile diabetes — launching a web site, NicksSimpleWins.com, creating diabetes “dog tags” to raise awareness and cash for research, testifying on Capitol Hill and meeting President Barack Obama at the White House.

In an interview, Jonas said he decided to use his celebrity “to talk to people who are not as much in the spotlight,” such as a girl in Miami who was taunted as “robot girl” by classmates because of her medication equipment.

“To think that it can encourage or inspire someone in the world is an amazing thing,” he said.

Now, for those who care about pesky private questions:

• Does he have a girlfriend? “I do not.”

• Would he date a fan? “Yes.”

• His musical idols? Elvis Costello, Johnny Cash, Prince and Stevie Wonder.

• His dream job? “I've always wanted to be president of the United States.”

But won't it be a few years before he can move into the Oval Office? “2040 to be exact,” he points out.

His political machine, fueled by teenage girls, is already at work on it.

Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas dating?

Now that all the Disney stars have joined Twitter, they've also opened themselves up to an ugly side of fame: the posers. Tons of people pop up on Twitter posing as Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and the Jonas Brothers.

According to these "fake" Twitter accounts (mind you, no one's sure if they're real or fake!), Nick Jonas just broke up with Miley Cyrus to date Demi Lovato, and Miley is pissed. Check out some of the harsh words being exchanged by the impostors! If these are the real thing - well, we've got a major situation on our hands, because Selena's siding with Demi, her long time friend, Miley's throwing harsh words at Demi, who was her best friend as of this morning, and Nick's just telling Miley off by claiming he loves Demi. Ouch, that one's gotta hurt.

If these aren't the real kids, then why go to all the trouble? Fakers are one thing, but this is a heated Twitter debate! It's certainly quite the scheme to be cooked up by some bored teens sitting at home. I'm going to go with a case of mistaken identity - I highly doubt the exchange below is taking place with the real Demi, Nick, Miley and Selena. But lord knows that things could get messy when a group of stars is as close as these kids are.

What do you guys think? How do you tell the real stars from the fake ones? Would the real Nick ever date Demi? Would the real Demi do that to Miley? Here's hoping all of this is just one big scam!
