Myspace Bulletin from Mandy • The Jonas Brothers' friend Mandy posted this bulletin on Myspace:
About a month ago E! True Hollywood Stories came to where I work at Fitcare/Parisi's to interview me about growing up with the Jonas Brothers! It was such a surreal interview and had my mind racing back to so many amazing memories!! It amazes me that only 2-3 years ago we were begging people to come see their show. Trying to fill venues of 50-100 people......the only confirmed people would be me, my family, JB family, Jamma, JB5, Kat, Steph & Joyce!! Now they are bigger than life! Up for awards....GRAMMY'S! It seems like only yesterday I was sitting in the Jonas' living room watching the Grammy's with them! It was only yesterday I was with them and the band on tour in a 15 passenger van going from venue to venue state to state to perform, trying to sell enough merch (with Janice & Koon) to fill the gas tank so we could get back home! Believe me when I say they are so thankful to each and every one of you....the fans that have been there since day one and the fans that just started listening to their music - they love you all!! I am just so proud of them and writing it out and sharing my feelings helps the sadness that I don't get to see them as much as I used to! So bare with me....if you hate me and think I am just bragging, using them....or whatever please just delete me and don't waste your time with the hate messages! Don't be judgemental...I am not trying to "be famous" or "use anyone" to further myself I am just a normal 19 year old girl happy and so proud and trying to support her friends.....If you were in my shoes you would be just as proud and miss them just as much! But those of you that have showed such an interest in my life because of the JB - thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I am so thankful for the amazing people that have been brought into my life because of Nicholas, Joseph & Kevin!! Your comments and messages keep me connected with the boys and I thank you for that!! Well anyway on December 19th please tune into E! True Hollywood Stories and check out the JB! Check your local listings as to the time and channel in your area!! Thanks for letting me share and reminisce...it felt good!
x's and o's ♥ Mandy

Top Concert Ticket Search • According to Rolling Stone Jonas Brothers are the top searched concert tickets of 2008!
Atlantis Paradise Contest • The winner of a trip to Atlantis to go to a private concert with the Jonas Brothers is 14 year old Abbie Schornstheimer from Elmire, New York. Congrats. Abbie!
"I answered the phone and this guy named Landon said he had information regarding my trip," Abbie said. "At first, I thought maybe he was going to say I won a signed CD. I never dreamed I would actually win the grand prize. I just started crying and flipping out."
Her mother, Vicki Schornstheimer, was suspicious.
"She believed it a whole lot better than I did," Vicki said. "I heard her talking and crying. When I got him on the phone, I questioned him, took notes, then checked it out. It was legitimate."
Abbie won Verizon's Watch to Win Sweepstakes grand prize, which consists of round-trip airfare for four people to the Bahamas; one hotel room for three nights at the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island; four premium tickets to the private performance concert featuring the Jonas Brothers on Saturday; and car service to and from the hotel to the airport.

WOW! THIS WAS AN AMAZING 2 WEEKS
Hey everyone!
It has been longer than we wanted since we wrote another update blog. This was a VERY busy few weeks but it has been wonderful.
In the last 2 weeks we
Performed TONIGHT on the AMAs (American Music Awards) and THANKS TO YOU won our first AMA. This meant so much to us because it was voted on by the FANS. That means you made it happen. We could not be more thankful.
After the AMAs we had a special FREE concert for our fans at the House of Blues on Sunset Blvd in LA. IT WAS AMAZING!!!! The entire show was acoustic and we played some of our favorite songs. During the concert some of our friends joined us onstage. Some of the people included Dan Akroyd (from the original Blues Brothers), Demi Lovato (who sang an amazing version of John Mayer's Daughters), Jordin Sparks (who sang No Air and a killer version of Superstition), Honor Society, Jess McCartney (who sang his hit song Leavin') and Frankie J (who sang When You Look Me In The Eyes IN SPANISH!). We were able to be the house band for all of our friends. It was amazing.
The next day we did the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. He is always so great. We had decided to sing a new song at each event this week. It was fun to change it up a bit. We did SHELF.
The next day we were on the Jimmy Kimmel Show and sang BB Good and Video Girl. The crowd was amazing!
After the show we flew all night and did some press and rehearsals for the Dallas Cowboys Game for Thanksgiving.
On Thanksgiving we performed for the Dallas Cowboys Game with hundreds of people and a huge stage. They really made it amazing. We sang TONIGHT, LOVEBUG, and BURNIN' UP with Big Rob. One of the highlights of our career so far.
Then we flew all night again to be in New York City for Good Morning America to discuss our new book, BURNING UP on tour with the Jonas Brothers. It is always good to be there.
We went from GMA to a book signing in NYC that was CRAZY. There were over 500 people there that had camped out on the streets for days (including missing Thanksgiving) to meet us. It will never cease to amaze us that people will camp out to see us. We really do have the best fans in the world. Then we had the night off.
On Saturday we flew to Las Vegas for 2 shows at the MGM Grand. It was so good to be back in front of our fans for shows. This is what brings us the most joy.
On Sunday we flew back to LA for a show at the Palladium. Once again we heard that people had camped out and missed Thanksgiving to see us. Can't believe the commitment of our fans.
THIS WEDNESDAY was a special concert for the Nominations of the GRAMMY AWARDS. We knew that John Mayer was performing so we really wanted to go. We finished filming our TV show for the day and raced to the awards so that we wouldn't miss the concert. When we arrived they rushed us to our seats then...
They announced the first award for Best New Artist. We completely freaked out when they announced that we were one of the nominees. We STILL can't believe it. Our fans are amazing and have voted for us on a lot of different awards but this is voted on by people inside the music industry. We were completely shocked. Then LL COOL J came over to interview us. Not sure how we answered him because we were in shock about the nomination and then we were in shock that we were talking to LL COOL J. What a night! After the announcement we were moved to a press room. During the night we met so many people that we have admired including BB KING, SMOKEY ROBINSON, and finally we met JOHN MAYER. He was so great to us.
Our heads are still spinning since the announcement. We are fans of ALL the other artists that are nominated in our category. It really is an honor. The crew from our crew from our TV series even threw us a party the following day congratulating us on the nomination.
We are working hard every day on our new TV show JONAS and can't wait for you to see it. But it was exciting to get back out there and be in front of our fans and friends again. We miss and love you so much.
Thanks for EVERYTHING!
JB Kevin, Joe and Nick
P.S. There is a rumor that one of us is leaving to group. Not true. We love what we are doing and hope to do it together for a long time.
Kevin Leaving The Band? • That is completely NOT TRUE. There are a few websites and magazines claiming Kevin wants to start a solo craeer but that is absolutely FALSE. The Jonas Brothers set that straight in their blog (see above)
Do The Most Good
Breakout stars of 2008 • Jonas Brothers made Forbes Magazine's list of Bearkout Star of 2008
If 2007 was the year of the Cyrus, 2008 marked the year of the Jonas.
Once a struggling Christian rock group, brothers Nick, Joe and Kevin--better known as the Jonas Brothers--owned the spotlight all year. They've scored starring roles in the Disney Channel flick Camp Rock, hit the road for a sold-out concert tour and released a chart-topping album--A Little Bit Longer. In fact, for the year ending June 2008, the superstar trio collectively banked $12 million.
Next up, a 3-D concert movie and a Disney Channel TV series, not to mention still more swooning from the 'tween girl set.
