LOS ANGELES, CA- The Jonas Brothers are trying to creep out of the shadow
of Hannah Montana. The group that owes part of its volcanic rise in
popularity to the Disney star are trying their best to distance themselves
from her.
Nick, Kevin, and Joe feel that
now is their time to shine, according to a Disney insider. Jonas Brothers
tickets are the biggest sellers for the under 16 market and a new television
show, J.O.N.A.S., is on the way on the Disney Channel.
“We have no desire to exploit
ourselves sexually,” Nick Jonas said. “We are perfectly willing
to be exploited by Disney for right now.”
Hannah Montana, or Miley Cyrus,
has been distancing herself from the golden, goody-to-shoes image that
has supported her own desperation to become famous.
“She wants to remain relevant,”
industry analyst Tim Munch said. “She tried that whole weird incest
thing with her father for Vanity Fair. I think it’s great that she
is experimenting with her image, it shows a real willingness to do what
ever to takes to make a dollar.”
Other stars have towed the
line of inappropriate family affection and made out huge. Angelina Jolie
is famous for her declaration of love for her brother followed by a
creepy kiss following her win at the 2000 Academy Awards.
“That night she went where
few starlets have gone before, and look at her now,” Munch said. “When
I first heard that she changed her last name to Cyrus that she had a
secret marriage, I was a little disappointed when I found out she was
just adopting her father’s last name.”
In the meantime, the Jonas
Brothers are proud to continue with their clean image. Wearing purity
rings on stage, the group has decided that they are kind of like Neil
Diamond, you either like them or you do not. The group was disappointed
to hear that apparently the vaunted singer did not like them, when he
refused to give them complimentary Neil Diamond tickets to his concert.
“That’s alright,” Kevin
Jonas said. “We got Coldplay tickets off a scalper that night instead,
I guess her was just threatened by our deep, meaningful lyrics, like
to ‘Love Bug’ or ‘Video Girl’.”
The Jonas Brothers said they
are looking forward to take some time off to spend with their parents.
“We have made plans to get Journey tickets and Heart tickets,” Joe Jonas said. “You know to revisit the roots of Rock and Roll.”
