Joe Jonas wrote an article for
New York Magazine about his life as a Jonas Brother. I highly suggest you take a few minutes of your day and read the really open and interesting details he shared about his last few years.
He explains what it was like be a Disney child and the image that was forced upon him and his brothers, Kevin and Nick. He says it was not who they really were and they were too scared not to be who they were told to be. That opens the door for him to talk about those purity rings and how they were forced in interview to answer questions about them against their will. He also discloses that he lost his virginity at 20 to someone he cared for and he is glad he waited for her. The two of them are no longer together, but he is in love with the person he is with today.
He also spills about some of the other women in his life. He says dating Demi Lovato was difficult because of her reported drug problem. Something he says that Miley Cyrus and Lovato peer pressured him to do. He didn’t want to smoke pot, but he says insisted he try it so he did.
He also talks about the biggest split of his life, and what it was like to break up with his brothers.
I am just giving you the Cliff Notes version of the article and just like a classic book, it is worth the read. You sincerely will have completely new appreciation for him. I know I am respecting the crap out of him for being so truthful!
His article should be shared with all child star before they get into the business, so that they know what they are getting in to.
