The Jonas Brothers are continuing to prove this year, just like they have since 2007, that they’re as much a part of summertime as barbecues, beach parties and warm weather romances.
Those musical brothers from New Jersey are continuing the warm-weather fling. Their Disney Channel series, Jonas L.A., just started a successful second season (and was recently nominated for an Emmy as Outstanding Children’s Program), they’re in the middle of another giant North American tour (they play the Molson Amphitheatre on Sept. 2 and 3) and, perhaps most importantly, Camp Rock 2, the sequel to their hit 2008 TV movie, debuts Sept. 3.
On the surface, it would seem like the brothers will be a viable commodity for some time yet. The problem is, that as each year goes by, they look and act more like three individuals than a homogenous boy band.
There’s no dissension, no strife; the guys get along well onstage and off. “We’re brothers, dude, what else did you expect?” asks Kevin, the oldest.
They’re staying together but, bit by bit, they’re also going their separate ways. Nick, the youngest, not only went out as a solo act earlier this year, he is appearing in London’s West End as Marius in Les Misérables, a return to his early days as a professional stage actor.
Kevin was the first to get married, while Joe — sporting a new pair of Clark Kent-styled glasses — is being seen at more and more L.A. social events and has announced plans to record a solo album. It was possible to see the seeds of all this last summer, when the brothers were in Toronto filming Camp Rock 2.
On a rainy night in August, I went to the set in Earl Bales Park to spend face time with each Jonas Brother, one on one. (While I connected with Kevin and Joe that night, Nick was busy with other projects, so I had to catch up with him later in New York.)

Joe Jonas knows what the most important meal of the day is as he heads to breakfast with his roommates Greg Garbo and Jack Lawless at Alcove restaurant in Los Feliz, Calif., on Sunday morning (July 18).
After enjoying his meal, the 20-year-old actor headed back to his car and gave the valet a grateful tip.
Joe just completed filming on his first ever Hot in Cleveland episode. He tweeted his excitement, saying, “Last day filming hot in Cleveland. Been fun! Betty White rules.”

You’ve heard the song, now check out the video for Joe Jonas’ first stab at a solo career!
Behold, the clip for JoJo’s heartfelt acoustic ballad “Make It Right” from Jonas L.A.’s “Date Expectations” episode. So what’s it about? Well, it’s about 1 minute and 26 seconds long. But it also seems to be about romantic yearning, as the Prettiest L’il JoBro strums his acoustic guitar poolside and gives his wounded falsetto a workout.
Feast your eyes on the video below. Thoughts? Share them in the comments section.
ETA: Before you get ahead of yourself, Joe Jonas IS NOT DATING Nikki Reed nor any of the Twilight Saga cast. He was just posing for photos with some of the cast members and attended the premiere.

Nikki Reed and Joe Jonas pose for a few pictures at the red carpet premiere of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse at Odeon Leicester Square in London on Thursday evening (July 1).
Joe, 20, is in London spending time with younger brother Nick while he performs as Marius in Les Miserables.
Nikki caught up with MTV about an intense Rosalie scene in the third installment of the franchise. She shared, “There was this scene that I shot where I was strapped to this weird machine that was making me fly up and down this hallway with this wedding dress and David Slade was giving me this really intense direction but it was just kind of outrageous what I was doing.”
FYI: Nikki was wearing a peach Alberta Ferretti dress with Brian Atwood shoes, a Ferragamo clutch and jewels by Lorraine Schwart

the romance! the breakup! camp rock 2 costars, tour mates, and former it couple demi lovato and joe jonas on being together . . . and drifting apart.
They’re both talented, good-looking, and famous, but Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato don’t exactly have the world on a string: Simpler pleasures, of the sort afforded to other kids their age, sometimes elude them. Earlier this year, when the Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam costars decided to test the romantic possibilities of their rock-solid friendship, they felt compelled to do so in public; when they broke up just a few months later, Joe announced it by issuing a statement, and Demi—always true to her loyal fans—decided to confirm the details on Twitter. “I kind of learned throughout this whole experience that having my private life public isn’t as awesome as it might seem,” the seventeen-year-old says with a rueful little laugh.
Even the process of scheduling their pre-split sit-down with Teen Vogue, for example—at which the then-couple agreed to interview each other—was complicated by their inability to appear together without risking mass hysteria. But for the most part, they seem to be fairly at ease with all the attention: After a daylong press junket, Demi’s famous laugh is still as loud as ever, and Joe, 20, is chipper and ready to chat. (Naturally, they were more subdued when they spoke to Teen Vogue again after their breakup, but more on that in a bit.)
Demi Lovato: What’s your favorite thing about me?
Joe Jonas: Do you really want me to answer that? Why don’t you tell me: On set, what was your favorite snack? Because I think I already know.
Demi Lovato: The tomato-cheese quesadillas. Do you remember those? They were so good. What did you think it was?
Joe Jonas: Cheese sticks.
Demi Lovato: We didn’t have cheese sticks!
Joe Jonas: Well, for some reason, I imagine you eating a lot of cheese sticks.
Demi Lovato: [Laughs] Thanks.
Joe Jonas: They just seem like something you would like.
Demi Lovato: I do love cheese sticks.
Joe Jonas: There you go.
Demi Lovato: So what was the hardest thing for you about making Camp Rock 2?
Joe Jonas: Finding time to sleep. There were so many things to do. If I wasn’t on set, I was cooking or working out. What about you?
Demi Lovato: I think it was balancing sleep too. Even though I wasn’t working out, I was dancing, sometimes for hours on end.
Joe Jonas: Have you ever been to a real summer camp?
Demi Lovato: Yeah, I went to church camp when I was in the sixth grade. What about you?
Joe Jonas: I went to sleepaway camp seven years in a row. I was such a pro. We had these relay races at the end of every summer, and the majority of the competitions were eating contests. Sometimes you would have to eat, like, a whole can of Spam; once I ate four raw potatoes. I didn’t really recover for weeks after that.
Demi Lovato: Eww!
Joe Jonas: In some ways, making this movie felt like camp all over again. During breaks, we weren’t hanging out in trailers—we were going down to the lake or playing in the woods.

Take away the hit TV show and the screaming hordes of tween girls, and you have three brothers who love to make music.
Granted, the Jonas Brothers are more famous than any other sibling trio — so famous that incredibly massive bodyguards protect them. Yet despite kicking off a three-month tour July 27, Kevin’s fairly new marriage, Joe’s sputtered romance with Disney starlet Demi Lovato and the paparazzi constantly chronicling their lives, the JoBro seem remarkably grounded.
They’re sequestered in a Manhattan hotel, happy to talk music and explain how, for them, music is enmeshed with acting.
They have a lot of both coming up: the tour; the launch of their revamped Disney show, “Jonas L.A.,” on Sunday, June 20; and the sequel to “Camp Rock,” “Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam” premiering Sept. 3.
Before TV catapulted them to superstardom, it was all about the music. They started as musicians, backing up Nick, 17, who turned pro at 6.
He performed in Broadway plays — “A Christmas Carol,” “Beauty and the Beast” and “Les Miserables” — then came back to his home state of New Jersey and performed in “The Sound of Music” at Milburn’s Paper Mill Playhouse.
“The initial idea was being around other young people who loved to do what I did,” Nick says of musical theater.
Kevin recalls being very young when he was first drawn to the stage.
“There was an open call for a remake of ‘(Miracle on) 34th Street,’ and I got pretty far in the process,” he says. “I loved it (acting), and it was fun and a passion, but music always took the No. 1 seat.”
The brothers are seated around a large table in a hotel conference room that looks out on a drenched Central Park. Kevin wonders if that night’s Yankees game will be canceled because of rain.
“For me, music is something that always feels comfortable,” Joe says. “Acting is something I want to do. In L.A. now I’m taking meetings. It’s been really awesome.”
The new show, as the title broadcasts, places the brothers in Los Angeles. They are in an exquisite house, which comes with a pool and an annoying neighbor. There are starlets, the sights of Los Angeles, but for these young men, there’s always the music. And the show works best during the musical numbers.
Their new song, “L.A. Baby,” featured on the show has a segment easily lifted out for a music video. In it, they do some California cruising — Kevin gets a sweet convertible that runs best on Chinese restaurant oil. There are girls and goofy scenes, but it’s truly a Disney music video, and parents need not worry.
“Driving down the highway with a California breeze in my hair,” Nick sings.
He segues easily between drums and guitar and also plays piano and cello. Nick is very intense as he delves into his music, but his older brothers, particularly Kevin, keep spirits light.
The brothers are obviously close and music only cements that bond. Their 2008 CD, “A Little Bit Longer,” went multiplatinum. Last year’s “Lines, Vines and Trying Times” includes the song “World War III,” featuring the amazing horn section from Earth Wind & Fire.
The Jonas Brothers have also worked with Stevie Wonder and Brad Paisley. It was probably expected that they would stick with the tried pop music formula, but they’ve ventured into R&B and country.
Like most musicians, they’re fans of many artists. Kevin lights up as he talks up seeing Paul McCartney in concert. He was so excited he could not stay in his seat.
“The person me kept telling me to sit down,” he says, adding that he was unable to. “It was just amazing.”
They hope to electrify their fans as their North American tour takes them from smaller clubs to amphitheaters.
“As a band, the No. 1 priority from the beginning is we strive to write more music, that’s more honest in our lyrics,” Joe says. “And we want to write music through our lives.”
“Personally, we want to continue where we are in all of our lives,” Kevin says. “I love to tour. It’s a lifestyle. You become used to it.”
SONNY WITH A CHANCE & JONAS LA PROMISE BIG SUNDAY NIGHT FOR DISNEY
June 17, 2010Only 3 days until a big night of premieres on Disney Channel!
Sunday night kicks off with part 2 of the “Sonny With a Chance” episode, “Falling for the Falls” at 8pm EST. In “Falling for the Falls Part 2,” Sonny and Chad (Demi Lovato & Sterling Knight) have been keeping their relationship a secret for weeks from their fellow “So Random!” and “Mackenzie Falls” cast mates. When the studio decides to end the feud between the two shows, Chad is set up on a date with Tawni (Tiffany Thornton) and ‘Chawni’ quickly becomes the Hollywood “it” couple. Sonny, not a fan of the coupling, shows up at a Mackenzie Falls party with her own special date.
Next up at 8:25pm EST is the premiere of Selena Gomez’s new music video for “Round and Round.”
Then at 8:30pm EST is the highly anticipated season premiere of “JONAS L.A.”!! Kevin, Joe, Nick, Stella & Macy have packed up and headed to Los Angeles for a summer of fun, music and romance. In the premiere episode titled “House Party,” the gang arrives in Los Angeles to begin a summer vacation they will never forget. Their gregarious neighbor, DZ (Adam Hicks), convinces the guys to throw a house party to announce their arrival and Nick invites Emma Roberts to the party.
We know what we’ll be doing Sunday night. Make sure to tune in and then tweet us what you thought of the episodes.
