Disney Channel To Air Nick Jonas announcement in Hannah Montana Diabetes Episode

2009-09-15T03:59:00.000-07:00

Disney Channel will air a diabetes related episode in late September after reviewing the content with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Hannah Montana episode on diabetes will air on Disney Channel on September 20th.

According to NY Daily News "The episode revolves around Miley (Miley Cyrus) and Lilly (Emily Osment) reacting to the knowledge that Oliver (Mitchel Musso) has been diagnosed with Type I diabetes. The pair then turn into food police at a sweet 16 party, to keep Oliver away from certain foods. Eventually, Oliver puts them at ease: together they - and he - can work through the challenge of diabetes. The segment ends with a feel-good message."

Disney channel tried very hard in its attempt of promoting the show. Perhaps they wanted to make it either more interesting or simply raising awareness about Juvenile Diabetes. Channel officials had even enlisted Nick Jonas, who also has diabetes, to star in a public services announcement to air with the show.

Hanna Montana diabetes episode was schedules to appear last year in November on Disney Channel. Officials had said that the content was reviewed during the scriptwriting process and approved for accuracy.

Later, Disney officials found some issues with the content. That episode was pulled out without notice despite being available in early versions through video on demand.

Now Disney Channel says it has reviewed it with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and will air it on September 20th at 7:30 PM.

Cyrus' brother slams 'fake' Jonas Brothers

Trace Cyrus

Miley Cyrus' half-brother Trace has launched a stinging attack on his younger sister's pals the Jonas Brothers, calling the trio "totally fake."

Trace Cyrus, who fronts his own band Metro Station, has defended his image as a grungy, tattooed rocker, insisting he is much happier than his pop peers.

And even though his 16-year-old sibling once dated Nick Jonas and remains close friends with the bandmembers, Cyrus has slammed the Disney stars for their clean-cut personas.

He tells Details magazine, "I'm not trying to clean my image to make anyone happy. I could have gone the route of the Jonas Brothers. Those guys can't live their lives freely. They have to put out this image that's totally fake."

Nick Jonas speaks on diabetes in Washington

2009-08-31T04:10:00.001-07:00

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!

Is Nick Jonas going to college?

2009-07-12T16:52:00.001-07:00

It seems like almost all the Jonas Brothers are publicly thinking about their futures these days — except perhaps the group’s resident free spirit, Joe Jonas. Kevin Jonas is engaged. And, it’s now being rumored that 16-year-old Nick is also thinking about his next step in life.

According to a Perez Hilton sighting, Nick was seen visiting Northwestern University on Monday (July 6). When reached for comment, a rep for the band said, “We have no comment on this.”

Back in March, during a press call about their tour, Nick actually shared with reporters that Northwestern was definitely on his radar if he should choose to pursue his education. “I would definitely love to go to college,” he said. “I’ve always talked about going to school at Northwestern in Chicago and I think that would be a lot of fun.”

In June, the musician, who has previously said he’d want to study English if he went to college, graduated from high school and excitedly shared the news with his fans and MTV News, but had yet to plan out how exactly he would be celebrating the milestone.

“I’m happy to announce I have graduated! Class of ‘09!” he had written on his Twitter. “Congrats to everyone else who has also graduated this year! -Mr. President (Nick)”

Miley Cyrus Back with Nick Jonas

Hannah Montana: Miley Cyrus Back with Nick Jonas and Another Photo Scandal

Thursday, June 25, 2009

Is Miley Cyrus proof that history repeats itself? The Disney Channel tween queen seems to be going back to her old ways these days. First, her rekindled relationship with ex-boyfriend Nick Jonas has been confirmed. Second, it's been said that she's involved in yet another controversial photo.

Let's tackle the Nick Jonas issue. On Larry King Live last Thursday, Nick's brother Joe Jonas revealed that Miley's getting back into their lives. The host of the late night talk show asked Joe about his girlfriend, and later posted a question regarding his brothers' recent romances.

When Larry King wondered aloud if Joe's girl Camilla Belle is as famous as Nick's girlfriend, the 19-year-old Jonas Brother answered: "I don't think anyone's as famous as Miley Cyrus."

There goes the speculation. While neither of the celebrity's reps has responded to Joe Jonas' comments, Miley Cyrus has been quoted saying that she has indeed "reconnected" with Nick. It was over between her and Justin Gaston, so it sounds like there's hope for a "Niley" comeback.

"He's my best friend, and we still hang out all the time, and we've definitely reconnected," she admitted. "And we don't know what's going to happen in the future, but right now we're just kicking it and hanging out as much as we can."

Also in Miley's world, another set of scandalous pictures have surfaced. While it's been quite a while since her last one, she can't seem to stop fooling with the camera. Then again, the Hannah Montana star's representatives told the NY Daily News that the photos are indeed fake.

"The alleged photo of Miley Cyrus circulating the internet is completely fabricated," said the spokesperson. However, it looks far from it once you see the actual shots.

According to the Actress Archives, the latest pictures show Miley Cyrus on the set of her upcoming movie, The Last Song. She was seen posing provocatively with producer Adam Shankman, who posted them on his website.

To their defense, Shankman said: "Miley is a sweet angel who works tirelessly and endlessly, and is allowed to have fun in the make up room! Seriously! Lighten up or no more behind the scenes pics! She's like my angel little sister."

Whatever Miley's up to, there's no doubt that this issue will blow over soon. More fans are anticipating her performance on The Last Song, in which she does admit is a more grown-up role for her. Maybe that explains the photos?

Miley Cyrus Tweets About Nick Jonas Reunion Rumors

2009-05-11T06:47:00.000-07:00

Last week, rumors began to emerge that Miley Cyrus and Nick Jonas were rekindling their romance after the two recorded the charity song "Pass It On" and were later seen getting lunch together in Los Angeles.

Well, Miley, who is dating model/musician Justin Gaston, has taken to her Twitter page to clear up the rumors and assure everyone that she's not going back to her ex. "I like to keep my private life as private as possible," she wrote. "Justin and Nick are two very amazing people, and they both mean so much to me."

She also added that "it makes me sad to think that people out there aren't friends with their ex [boyfriend], because let me tell you, it is possible."

Miley has been candid about her split with Nick Jonas, and in her book, "Miles to Go," she called him her "Prince Charming." But the singer/actress has also been quite public about hitting the town with current beau Gaston. In another Twitter post, she wrote, "I heard once 'u can love more than one in your life but there is only one love of your life.' I love both of them so much and they are both very dear to my heart."

Cyrus called Justin "amazing," adding, "He can always make me laugh and has a heart of gold. And Nick is so lovely. He reaches out to so many people with his music, not only with his talent but with his heart. Our love for music is something that keeps our friendship together."

Miley added that no matter what, Nick will be her friend forever. Hoping that her Tweets cleared up any speculation people may have about the relationship, she said, "So there. That's all I will say about this stupid rumor."

Emma Roberts Makes Nice with Nick Jonas

2009-03-31T06:32:00.001-07:00

She’s one of Hollywood’s hottest up-and-coming actresses, and Emma Roberts is doing her best not to make enemies in Tinseltown.

The “Hotel for Dogs” hottie was recently quoted in Teen Vogue magazine as saying, “I’m looking to musicians now. I used to have a crush on Nick [Jonas], but he’s kind of making his rounds in Hollywood, and I don’t know if I like that.”

Nick Jonas Responds to Miley Cyrus Calling Him Prince Charming

2009-03-28T08:08:00.000-07:00

Access Hollywood's Maria Menounos traveled with Jonas Brothers as part of their "Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience" movie tour. In this interview, the boys discussed working on their next album and how their fans keep them grounded.

Kevin Jonas, Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas also talked about public heartbreak and fellow Disney star Miley Cyrus' new book "Miles to Go". Nick even responded to the "Hannah Montana" cutie calling him her Prince Charming.

Nick Jonas and Miley Cyrus reportedly dated for two years before breaking up in late 2007. However, the two have managed to remain friends. "Nick and I are total friends," Miley told J-14. "Like the other day we were on the phone for like 45 minutes. We don't hate each other the way people make it seem."

Jonas Brothers' fourth album due June 15

2009-03-22T20:00:00.001-07:00

By Gary Graff

AUSTIN, Texas (Billboard) - The Jonas Brothers are nearing completion of their fourth album, due out June 15, which the trio says will take the band in new sonic directions.

"This album is taking steps," Nick Jonas told Billboard.com during a teleconference with reporters on Wednesday. "We're trying to learn as much as we can, continuing to grow."

Kevin Jonas said, "The overall message is it's the same old Jonas Brothers, in a sense," but he noted that the group would be adding more instrumentation, including horns and strings "to add and build to the sound we already have."

Nick said the songs on the new album -- whose title the brothers are not yet revealing -- are "our journal in songs," mostly about "all things we've gone through, personal experiences we get inspiration from." But citing the continuing influence of Elvis Costello, he added that "we've also been working on trying to use metaphors ... to kind of mask a literal thing that happens to us."

Other inspirations the trio cited for the new album include the Zutons, Kings of Leon and Neil Diamond.

Nick said the group already has recorded nine songs with "a few more to go." John Fields is again producing the album, which was recorded concurrently with the filming of the trio's new "J.O.N.A.S." action/adventure/comedy series, which will debut in May on the Disney Channel. Several songs from the album will be featured in the show as well.

The Jonases are also gearing up for their first world tour, which begins June 20. The show will be performed in the round on a 144-foot-wide stage that incorporates a large circular water screen.

"We wanted to find a way to provide a bigger and better show to our fans," Joe Jonas said. "The entire bottom half of the arena and the upper desk is essentially a front-row ticket."

Nick Jonas Sweetie Selena Gomez Dishes on BFF Demi Lovato
By Wendy Cook Oct 8, 2008

On the fast track teen stars Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez spend a lot of time together. So much so, Selena has announced to USA Today that her and Demi are working on a single and are planning a tour together. The Nick Jonas sweetie (she now says she is getting to know the youngest member of the Jonas Brothers) shares everything with Demi from auditions to makeup and clothing.

In an interview with Bop! Demi explains how they two have maintained such a strong friendship. "Selena and I aren't competitive. We've talked about it and we've known since we were young that we have the same image. We're both Hispanic and have dark hair, it's just one of those things. We would drive three hours to an audition in Austin and my mom would say if one of us gets something it's better than none of us getting something. So whoever gets it, we're happy for each other."

Demi, who starred in Disney's summer hit Camp Rock, recently released her debut album. The young star wrote all but two songs on the album and worked closely with The Jonas Brothers on both projects.

Demi, who is reportedly dating Nick Jonas, has been working on her debut album as well and it expecting it's release sometime next year.

Selena Gomez and Nick Jonas Getting to Know Each Other

October 07, 2008 03:30:48 GMT

In an interview for the upcoming issue of TV Guide magazine, she admits that she and Nick are "getting to know each other" but "not confirming anything."

Breaking her silence about the mounting rumors of her dating Nick Jonas of the Jonas Brothers, Selena Gomez tells TV Guide in an interview for its upcoming issue that she and the singer are "getting to know each other." However, she has yet confirmed or denied that they're dating.

"I've gotten really close to the entire Jonas family this past year," she told the magazine when addressing the extent of her relationship with the singing sensation. "Nick and I are getting to know each other, but we're not confirming anything."

Playing it coy about her relationship with Nick, Selena on the other hand openly speaks about her rumored feud with fellow Disney star Miley Cyrus, telling the magazine "there's no feud" between them. It "was completely blown out of proportion. That video was ages ago, and it's so irrelevant and not important to everything else going on," so she explained about the YouTube video that prompted the reported feud.

Also telling TV Guide she has a crush on actor Shia LaBeouf "ever since he was on Even Stevens", she even expresses her willingness to have him starring in her hit TV series "Wizards of Waverly Place." Nevertheless, she herself refused to be considered as a role model for her young fans, insisting "I'm going to do the best that I can do, but I am 16 and I am going to make mistakes - no one's perfect."

Selena and Nick have long been rumored to be dating. Despite the mounting evidence to the contrary, both of them have insisted to be just friends and nothing more.

Nick Jonas has new dog named Elvis

2008-09-19T20:04:00.000-07:00

Nick Jonas has a new best friend: a golden retriever named Elvis.

The pup was a birthday gift from his family, according to the band's rep. The youngest member of the Jonas Brothers band, who turned 16 on Tuesday, named the pup for two of his favorite musicians, Elvis Costello and Elvis Presley.

Though the band has been busy working on its upcoming film, Jonas Brothers 3-D Concert Movie (which will open Feb. 22, 2009), Nick still made time for Elvis on Tuesday, taking him for a walk around his L.A. neighborhood.

Jonas' 16th Birthday Baseball Party

2008-09-19T20:02:00.001-07:00

Teen pop star Nick Jonas celebrated his 16th birthday in style, by hiring out a baseball ground to mark the occasion with pals.

The youngest Jonas sibling was joined by elder brothers Kevin and Joe at Los Angeles' Dodgers Stadium on Wednesday, the day he turned 16.

The singing trio were surrounded by 15 friends for the evening bash, which cost more than $30,000, according to E! Online.

Earlier in the day, the brothers were snapped buying baseball clothes from a sports shop to wear at the party.

Miley Cyrus' 7 Things is about Nick!

2008-09-01T17:08:00.001-07:00

Miley has admitted in the past that a big portion of her album Breakout is about ex-boyfriends, but 7 Things video director Brett Ratner may have outed her in telling MTV that this particular song (which talks about "the 7 things I hate about you"!) is about Nick Jonas!

"She had me come out to her house," Ratner says. "She started showing me all of her personal items from under her bed that her ex-boyfriend gave her. The necklace she's wearing in the video is the necklace he gave her. She's wearing his diabetes or medical necklace."

And, of course, Nick, who's apparently dating that other Disney star, Selena Gomez, has been quite outspoken recently about his diagnosis as a diabetic.

So exactly what went on between the tweens to make Miley so upset as to write a song about the "7 Things" she hates about him? I guess we can just watch the video (below) and find out!

Nick Jonas and The Jonas Brothers in Virginia

2008-08-19T20:13:00.000-07:00

Tue, 19 August 2008 at 9:34 pm

Kevin, Nick, and Joe Jonas of The Jonas Brothers greet and sign autographs for waiting fans outside their Virginia Beach hotel on their way to the naval base on Tuesday.

The JoBros sat down to an interview with the Chicago Sun Times:

- Out of all the recent articles I’ve read about you guys, it seemed as if no one bothered to actually ask you about making “A Little Bit Longer.” Tell me how it all came together in the studio.

Nick: We started writing this record about this time last year. It was right after our self-titled album came out, and we were writing all these songs. We knew that we wouldn’t have much time, because we were about to go shoot “Camp Rock,” and right after that, we’d be on tour with Miley [Cyrus]. So basically what we did, we asked our management team, “How can we get into the studio to do this,” and we wound up bringing a tour bus out on the road that was retro-fitted to be a studio.

- So you recorded the album while you were traveling?

Nick: We did. We’d pull to be venues and things and do what we could do. Obviously, there were some vocal things that needed to be redone, and some drums, because you’d have the generator of the bus in the background. So when we finished the tour, we went into the studio to make a couple of fixes here and there, and basically the rest of it was done!

The Wax Figures of Jonas Brothers Unveiled

2008-08-19T20:10:00.000-07:00

No time for Jonas Brothers to slow down. In between their hectic schedules promoting their latest LP "A Little Bit Longer" which has just been dropped on the market, the siblings took time to show up for the unveiling of their wax statues at Madame Tussauds in Washington D.C. on Monday, August 18.

The threesome; Nick Jonas, Kevin Jonas, and Joe Jonas, took time that day to strike some poses with their wax figures, creating frenzy among a throng of fans who attended the event. Eldest brother Kevin's wax is seen smiling, wearing black outfits and a pair of white shoes with its hands holding a guitar. Joe's wax elsewhere wears a more formal outfit, pink-colored long-sleeved shirt and a matching tie, a black coat and a pair of silver shoes. As for Nick, his wax wears a coordinated blue clothes, plus a black bow tie, and a pair of white shoes. It is seen holding a guitar too.

A number of fans who were attending the event screamed and sang along with the words as Jonas Brothers' songs being played before the main event was kicked off. The brothers posed together with their statues for about five minutes before making a hasty exit, allowing fans to take photos with their wax likenesses.

All the boys, also on Monday, were seen visiting the White House to attend a briefing on diabetes, a cause they've been promoting, and tape a public-service announcement about national park, urging kids to get outdoors and stay active. During their time there, they reportedly signed their names to the wall of a swimming pool that was also signed by first lady Laura Bush among others.

Wanna date a Jonas Brother? OK, no whining!

2008-08-18T19:01:00.001-07:00

The Jonas Brothers were on MTV's TRL on Wednesday to promote their new album, "A Little Bit Longer."

Naturally, a fan asked what they looked for in a dream girlfriend.

They didn't offer specifics about blond, brunett, tall or short.

But Joe Jonas said, "If they are nagging and annoying, you're like, 'Go away,' "

And older bro Kevin Jonas agreed. "We're not ever really with people, 'cause we're always traveling. 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!'

But Nick Jonas, who used to date Miley Cyrus and is currently dating Selena Gomez, was all about the Mom Factor.

"They have to be good to their moms," said the 15-year-old. Sweeeeeet.

Who's your fave Jonas Brother? And why?

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

2008-08-18T18:58:00.000-07:00

Trio wouldn't pick a presidential candidate, but 'we do endorse voting,' Kevin says.

By Shawn Adler

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 Jonas Brothers?

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.

Just like the family-friendly roles she plays onscreen, Selena Gomez kept things G-rated during an interview with Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM show Tuesday morning.

Grilled over the ongoing rumors that she's dating Jonas Bro/Miley Cyrus ex Nick Jonas, the poised actress replied: "Well, he's an amazing guy, Ryan. Anybody would be very lucky to be dating him."

When pressed, Selena would only say, "I'm close to all the brothers." Which includes Team Demi and Selena supporter and her unofficial "big brother" Kevin.

Fine. But we hope Nick's the one who's got her heart. They'd make such a wholesome couple, don't ya think?

Nick Jonas Launches Type 1 Diabetes Awareness Campaign

Pop superstar Nick Jonas is already an inspiration to the millions of teens and 'tweens' who hang on every lyric sung by his band the Jonas Brothers.

But Jonas, who suffers from type 1 diabetes, hopes a three-year partnership he’s created with Bayer HealthCare will serve as an inspiration to others living with this disease.

“When I was first diagnosed, I did think, 'Why me?'” Jonas said Wednesday on "FOX & Friends," where he announced his partnership. “I had a great medical history. I had never stayed in the hospital before. I didn’t know anybody with diabetes. So it was a shock.”

Jonas’ mother, Denise Jonas, who joined him on "FOX & Friends," said her son felt alone after learning of his diagnosis because there was no one to offer him guidance.

“He really didn’t have anybody to look to,” she said. “So we really want to help Nick be that inspiration.”

For its part, Bayer has donated money to the Jonas Brothers' foundation, ChangeForTheChildren.org, to help support the musician’s awareness campaign.

As one-third of the pop group that also includes his brothers Kevin and Joe, Jonas was busy touring — playing elementary and middle schools — when he received his diabetes diagnosis in 2005 at age 13.

“I started to see some weight loss, I was thirsty all the time and I kind of had a bad attitude,” said Jonas, who is now 15. “I lost 15 pounds in two weeks and my blood sugar was 790-something so they put me in the hospital for two or three days, and gave me a crash course on everything I needed to know.”

To put Jonas’ blood sugar level in perspective, a normal level is about 100, said Dr. David Simmons, director of diabetes care and medical and clinical affairs for Bayer. A blood sugar of 790 is “dangerous to the point that, before there was insulin, people died,” Simmons said.

Type 1 diabetes is a condition in which the pancreas does not make enough insulin. About 15,000 people, mostly juveniles, are diagnosed with the condition each year. Symptoms of the disease include weight loss, thirst and confusion, said Dr. Manny Alvarez, managing editor of health for FOXNews.com.

Insulin plays a key role in moving glucose into the cells of the body's tissues. Cells use glucose as a source of energy. Lacking insulin, the bodies of type 1 diabetics are unable to move glucose into the cells, which can cause an overload in the bloodstream. Because of this, they have to limit their consumption of sugar and carbohydrates, which are converted by the body into glucose.

Denise Jonas said life for her family has changed since the diagnosis.

“Now I have to check everything that is prepared for Nicholas,” she said. “I have to check every carbohydrate, every ingredient and make sure it’s balanced out with what the doctor says he should be eating, and we’re checking his blood sugar constantly.”

Jonas said his whirlwind touring schedule sometimes makes it difficult to manage his condition.

“It is hard, but I’ve always had it in my heart to be an inspiration and a positive voice of encouragement,” he said. “So the first time I heard someone say 'thanks for sharing,' I thought if I can use this as an opportunity to inspire people, then it’s all worth it.”

Do you want to be Nick Jonas' Girlfriend?

2008-07-26T08:23:00.001-07:00

Do you know your stuff about the Jonas Brothers? Can you call yourself a real fan? Well if you want to be Nick Jonas' girlfriend or any of the Jonas' gf, then you better read these Jonas Brothers facts.

Did you know that the Jonas Brothers Bands started when Nick Jonas, the youngest of the three started a solo career? At six years old, nick was discovered be a manager while the young kid was crooning at the barber shop. Nick then got into Broadway after a year and started in A Christmas Carol as Tiny Tim and even at Les Miserables.

He also acted in Beauty and the Beast which was about the time Nick wrote a musical piece with his dad entitled "Joy to the Word - A Christmas Prayer." The song was sung on a yearly charity event for AIDS produced by Broadway. It was a big hit. INO Records produced it and Christian Radio made it popular through the airwaves.

Meanwhile, while all this was happening, Joe Jonas also went joined the Broadway bandwagon staring on a version of the play La Boheme. As Nick's solo career gained moderate success, it got him noticed. By this time, the three brothers had already started writing songs together for Nick. They eventually were corralled by Columbia records and finally named themselves as the Jonas Brothers.

The newly formed "band of brothers" joined several concert tours by famous pop stars such as Jesse McCartney, Backstreet Boys, Click Five, and even Kelly Clarkson. The also spent some time with Aly and AJ. Incidentally AJ Mishalka and Joe Jonas dated each other as a result of this hot musical set. Don't worry girls because it seems that they are no longer dating each other right now.

Their album, "It's About Time" was a result of collaboration with famous song writers from Bon Jovi, Destiny's Child, Aerosmith, Hanson, and Fountains of Wayne. This album's release was delayed a few times because of some deacons from the executives. The first single, Mandy was aired on Dec 2005. Instantly, the song rocketed up the charts and was requested everywhere.

After that, the album was finally released. The band currently has three albums under their belt namely: It's About Time (2006), Jonas Brothers (2007), and A Little Bit Longer (2008). They appeared on various T.V. shows such as Disney's Hannah Montana. This is also were Nick Jonas and Miley Cyrus, the star of Hannah Montana hooked up. Rumor has it that the two have been dating but have now broken up.

The brother's success is now undeniable as they have millions of fans and even a smash Disney movie Camp Rock. The boys have too much work on their hands with tours and promotions that they have no girlfriends. After all, being gone most of the year, who would have time for that? So for you girls out there who want to be one of the Jonas' girlfriend, sorry, you'll have to wait. They even wear purity rings that means they're saving sex for marriage.

Nick Jonas meets fans with diabetes

2008-07-18T21:17:00.000-07:00

With the help of the American Diabetes Association, three girls are getting a chance to meet one of their biggest idols.

Ashleigh LaMountain, 12, of Surprise and Heather Turner, 13, of Peoria will see and meet the Jonas Brothers tonight when the popular band performs at Cricket Wireless Pavilion.

But the girls are not just fans of the band. They share a unique trait with one of the band

Nick Jonas, 15, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2005. For this year's tour, he is giving away four free tickets and a chance to meet the band to the ADA branch in every city where they will perform.

"It's just really exciting to meet someone that's famous but they also have diabetes," Turner said. "He is really a positive role model to every person, not just people who have diabetes."

Turner was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes seven years ago, and LaMountain was diagnosed eight years ago.

"Diabetes doesn't hold you back from anything," LaMountain said. "He speaks to me because he gets to travel all around the U.S. doing what he does, so it's kind of like you can do whatever you want."

Anne Dennis, associate manager of the Phoenix ADA, said three of the tickets were given out randomly. The last was given to a chaperone.

Pinetop resident Leah Sempert, 13, is the third girl chosen to go to the concert. Brooke LeMaster, 22, is the chaperone.

LeMaster was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 7 1/2 years ago and said even though she isn't a big fan, she is excited for the opportunity to meet someone famous who has diabetes as well.

All four are involved with the ADA. The three girls are on the ADA Youth Leadership Council and LeMaster is a camp counselor with Camp AZDA,an ADA-sponsored camp for children and teens with diabetes.

LaMountain will start seventh grade at North Pointe Preparatorythis fall, and Turner is an eighth-grader at Coyote Hills Elementary School. LeMaster is studying nursing at Paradise Valley Community College.

LaMountain's mother, Katheryn, said the concert is a great opportunity for the girls to meet a role model.

"He is really a good role model for the kids to look up to," Katheryn LaMountain said. "He is somebody they can meet to make a connection, so they can see that anything is possible."

Though there is much excitement about meeting the band, seeing them perform is another highlight.

"I was really excited because the Jonas Brothers are awesome," LaMountain said. "This is my first time seeing them, and I've never gone backstage before."

It is Turner's first concert.

"I was really surprised when I found out," Turner said.

Nick Jonas and Jonas Bros rock it out

If you're under the age of 14 — or happen to be the parent of someone who is — then you've heard of the Jonas Brothers. For everyone else, a brief introduction might be in order.

The Jonas Brothers are the latest smash in the highly lucrative tween/young-teen pop-music game. The trio of real-life siblings — Kevin, Joe and Nick — has been adopted by the Disney Channel and Radio Disney, which has turned them into this year's model of Hannah Montana or "High School Musical." Since Disney got behind them in early 2007 — quickly releasing their self-titled CD and regularly featuring them on television — the Jonas Brothers' rise to the top has been amazingly swift.

Just last summer, the group played at the Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton. On Tuesday night, it headlined the gargantuan Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View. The band also has a show scheduled for Thursday at the Sleep Train Pavilion in Concord.

As expected, the Jonas Brothers thrilled their faithful following at Shoreline. The 22,000-capacity venue was jammed with youngsters who sang along to all the tunes and regularly let loose ear-piercing screams. Parents also seemed to enjoy the festivities and many could be heard chiming in on the lyrics.

"I kind of know the songs," admitted Burlingame resident Cindy Spurlock, who attended the concert with her 10-year-old daughter, Kiley. "I hear them all the time."

This concert wasn't at all painful for the adults in house. The Jonas Brothers proved to be competent singers and musicians, the majority of their tunes were solidly catchy, and the show was well paced and executed. The music ranged from Good Charlotte-style pop rockers and 'N Sync-like dance numbers to sweet ballads and modern Disney razzle-dazzle show tunes.

The music, however, is only one part of the appeal. Talk to the girls at a Jonas Brothers concert and they'll tell you the main reason why they follow Nick, Joe and Kevin.

"They're hot!" exclaimed 12-year-old San Jose resident Tatiana, who was at the show with her sisters, Ilsa and Gabi, and her dad, Allen. "I want to marry one of them."

The baby of the Jonas bunch, 15-year-old Nick, appeared to the fan favorite. Yet, both Joe, 18, and Kevin, 20, had their own rooting sections.

The trio, which stars in the hot new Disney Channel original movie "Camp Rock," gave the crowd plenty to scream about throughout the night. Performing in front of a small string section and a few other backing musicians, the Jonas Brothers opened the show with a fine version of "That's Just the Way We Roll" and then kept right on rolling out fan favorites like "Video Girl," "Year 3000" and "Burning Up."

The one legitimate knock on the concert was how late it ran. The brothers didn't take the stage until almost 9 p.m., already past the regular bedtime of some attendees, and the music lasted until 10:30 p.m. Young fans fought bravely against the sandman, yet some still could be seen snoozing in their parents' arms come encore time.

Many of those at Shoreline were experiencing their very first concert. With that in mind, perhaps the best thing that can be said is the Jonas Brothers delivered a show that will inspire these fans to see more live music.

Nick Jonas on Access Hollywood

2008-07-18T21:00:00.000-07:00

LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Thanks to legions of curious fans who can’t get enough of teen band, The Jonas Brothers, the boys – Kevin, Joe and Nick — are up to their ears in reporters. Journalists aren’t the only ones after the band though – everyone is name-dropping them, from the Obama family, who talked up the Brothers in their exclusive Access Hollywood interview, to Coldplay.

“Last night, at their concert, Coldplay went up and introduced themselves [to the crowd]. They said, ‘Hi, we’re the Jonas Brothers’ older brothers,’” Joe said. “Just the fact they knew who we were — we’re huge Coldplay fans so it’s just so cool.”

The band of brothers is making the most of its moment in the sun. Their latest star vehicle, Disney Channel original movie “Camp Rock,” scored 8.9 million viewers in its June 20 debut, and the group is currently on their U.S. “Burning Up” tour to promote their upcoming third album, “A Little Bit Longer.”

Despite all the hard work, they recently found time to take a vacation.

“After the Disney Channel Games, we took a [week’s] vacation down to the Bahamas,” Nick said. “It was unbelievable, we played golf everyday.”

The band stayed at the 10-room Bridge Suite at the Atlantis Hotel, where there was plenty of space to accommodate their entourage.

“Our band, those are our best friends and we bring them out on the road,” Nick said.

But life on the road isn’t just fun, games and interviews. They’ve also been working on their charity, the Jonas Brothers Change for the Children Foundation.

“Our main focus is kids with diabetes,” youngest Jonas brother, Nick, said. “Because I am a diabetic, that really has become a major thing for all of us as a family and as a band. [Kids] come up and say that we’re an encouragement just by singing a song – [it] makes you think, well if I just sing a song, what I can do if I really spend time to focus on this?”

“So many times kids come to the meet-and-greets and they have diabetes and they’ll say to Nick, they finally feel like they’re not the only ones out there,” Joe added. “It’s really cool to see that he can be such a leader for these kids.”

With support like that, it’s easy to see why there seems to be no sibling rivalry among the brothers Jonas.

“We’re each other’s best friends,” Nick said, noting that if things get tense on the bus, they blow off steam with a day on the links.

“We leave it on the course,” Kevin said.

Of course, there are a few things the young heartthrobs don’t have much time for – like dating.

“[We’re] single guys,” Nick said.

The younger brothers are also waiting for an opportunity to get their driver’s licenses.

“I have to do the driving test so maybe that can be an exclusive for you guys,” Joe joked to Access. “You can come with me [to] get my driver test.”

Joe and Nick are planning on getting their driver’s licenses in September, with the elder brother looking to buy a Corvette. As for Nick’s pick?

“It’s a Mustang GT 68,” he said. “It’s beautiful.”
