On last night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the Jonas Brothers faced off against superfan Jessi in a game of "Who Knows Jonas?" — and lost. I blame Nick, who really should’ve known what he wanted to be if he wasn’t a musician. (My favorite part is when Jessi yells "Cheating!" as the brothers stall. She’s in it to win it, boys.)
How many questions would you have gotten right? I’d have scored a big fat zero, however, I’m seriously contemplating going to see their 3D Concert Experience, in theaters Feb. 27, as a crash course (and because I want to watch young girls try to reach out and touch them).

I heard them for the first time on SNL a couple of weeks ago, and they were pretty disappointing. When I read a positive review of their CD in EW last week, I was like, really? Did I miss something?
That’s too funny – of course, she’s probably done her research in the pages of the esteemed literary journal Tiger Beat, which likely does not have 100% accuracy. And while I personally don’t want to see the Jonas Brothers movie (3D or otherwise), I may be suckered into going with my two nieces.
Funny! They aren’t the greatest singers, but I love that they don’t seem to take themselves too seriously. And what a thrill for the girl! You obviously can get far in life using M magazine as your top information source.
Maybe because the Jonas Brothers are so caught up in recording in the studio, writing songs, performing concerts and making appearances that some of those facts don’t come at them. They should understand that the fans are what made them where they are now and recall that information. It’s remarkable that some fans know so much about the group. Me, I just listen to the artists’ songs and that’s it. I don’t care too much about their favorite things too much. I just want to hear their songs, the musical landscapes and so forth.
I like that ’70s styled game show segment of Who Knows Jonas? on Jimmy Kimmel, even those funny gold curtains so common on game shows that decade. The young female fan was very nice and not too crazy.
I liked that girl’s bedroom of the posters of the Jonas Brothers. Very neatly organized of the magazine photos of the pop trio and the individual members without overdoing it, both walls covered.
As a late thirtysomething who has previously worked for a major music company, I think that these guys are great. I know that their music is teen pop, but these are three good guys who don’t get into trouble and live clean, and they love their fans.
Why all the haters?
That was almost as much fun as the time Kimmel asked Lindsay Lohan whatever happened to her twin sister from “The Parent Trap.”
Now that was funny – painfully so.
I think this is HYSTERICAL. I’ve met the JoBros quite a few times. The 1st encounter I came across Nick a yr. ago SMOKING a cigarette. It was nonchalant, I could have taken a picture, with either my camera phone, or my digital cam I had on me. I refused to snap the photo of the under-age Nick smoking because I do believe in some levels of privacy. I’m sure their label woulda had a holy fit had a pic of the youngest one smoking suirface online. So I find it downright hysterical, esp. since Jessi here refers to them as good guys, and highschool being difficult with peer pressure & drugs. WAKE UP CALL KIDS: Smoking under the age of 18 is ILLEGAL drugs. They’re about as fake as they come. They have talent but they’re total hypocrites. Oh, and I work in the media, and when I went to ask them 3 months later ABOUT the night I caught Nick smoking when their last cd came out, their record rep made me SWEAR I wouldn’t put them on the spot. WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP.
She’s a senior? As in, 18 years old?
………………….. Ok
The Appleby’s answer was kind of funny, I’ll give them that.
Everyone involved is adorable. aww.
I used to deliberately avoid the Jonas Brothers because I knew I was pre-disposed to be obsessed with them and I couldn’t bring myself to be exposed to another Disney obsession (the first being High School Musical and Zac Efron). But, I’m just going to come out and say it. I love these kids. I’m a mature, responsible 23-year-old and I will be using my 9-year-old niece’s birthday as an excuse to see the 3D Concert Experience. There I said it. Judge me all you want.
That was hilarious. Poor girl needs a life (:
I can’t believe this crap has replaced the awesomeness that was *NSYNC.
