The Jonas Brother
Capturing the tween set by storm, the Jonas Brothers are the newest hot recording band of the Disney Channel's millions of viewers. Boy bands have always enjoyed immense popularity among prepubescent girls. From Hanson to N' Sync, The Backstreet Boys and Ninety Eight Degrees, boy bands are a mainstay on young girl's walls and CD players. Almost a prerequisite to adulthood, idolizing teen stars of boy bands is not a trend that is going away any time soon. Clean cut and talented, The Jonas Brothers are the newest Pop icons to make their mark on young girls' hearts everywhere. Here are some fun facts about this hardworking and talented band of youngsters.
Given Names. The Jonas Brothers family given names are Joseph Adam Jonas, Nicholas Jerry Jonas and Paul Kevin Jonas II. Known simply as Joe, Nick and Paul to their legions of fans, the Jonas Brothers were given beautiful names by their proud parents.
Another Jonas Brother. There is also a fourth Jonas brother, named Frank. Thus far, Frank has avoided the spotlight. Judging from his brothers' vast talent, there is no doubt Frank will emerge sooner rather than later as another creative force to be reckoned with.
Teen Dreams. Paul Jonas is the eldest, age 19. Joe is 18 and Nick is 14. With a five year span of the boys, there is a Jonas Brother to idolize from the tween age range and beyond. It is certainly impressive that the brothers are able to successfully work together due to the age differences among the boys.
Jersey Boys. The Jonas brothers hail from the Garden state. A fact that my two Jersey girls were happy to hear!
Almost Just A Jonas Brother. The Jonas Brothers originated as a solo project by the youngest member of the band, Nick Jonas. Nick Jonas was quite the enterprising young man with a clear passion for music to embark on such a project at such a tender age. After realizing the talent and charisma of the other Jonas brothers, the solo act quickly became a family affair.
