The Jonas Brothers Want To Buy Their Parents A New House


Jonas Brothers interview at The Roxy about their success, gifts and
musical inspirations.
Credit: JBFan.org. Even though the boys already spent $2.9 million on a six-bedroom mansion in Dallas, Texas, they're still planning to buy their parents a new house.

Kevin explained: 'I haven't spent my money on anything extra- vagant. The most I have done is leased a car, which I don't drive because I am never at home! Some day we will buy our parents a house, but the money is not why we do what we do. It's all about the music for us.'

On what he looks for in a girl: 'I want someone who can understand what we do, day in and day out. And someone who can have long conversations on the phon, because that is pretty much all we are able to do at the moment!'

The brothers landed the fourth slot on this Forbes's 2008 Hollywood's Top-Earning Tweens list, after each banking $12 million in a year.

ok guys thay said one day they want to buy their parents a house. not now. and they moved from that other house people a fan went on their roof to take a picture of them. it is a reasonable reason to move. they even said on an interview that they were going to be out of that house soon. they only have 2 houses guys. give it a rest really. they have to have one in LA.

their 'rents don't need another house!
they have like 3 multi-million dollar houses.
but hey, that's their money to waste. once the next best thing comes along and everyone forgets about them, they'll be needing to sell those houses to get their money back.

You people find something negative with everything.
Its just something they want to do for their parents in the future, um whats wrong with that??? Nothing, chillax.

Anyways this interview is so cute. Joe forgot the year for a second there lol.

whom they still live with...

kristan kristan said:

i know i'll get yelled at for this but here is goes...

"but the money is not why we do what we do. It's all about the music for us."

oh so THATS why they came out with a pointless book, a 3-D movie, and are staring in their own extra stupid disney channel series. it wasn't for the money, it was to express their love for music! IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW.

godd i used to love these boys, but ive gotten so disappointed in them lately with their career choices.

kayla can rawr kayla can rawr said:

three.
it's ridiculous.

erin erin said:

stfu... so does being first make u any more special??

and if u dont know... when you read an article just because it doesnt have any comments at the time doesnt mean you will be the first to comment.... and ur second
'effin idiot

danielle danielle said:

I'm only gonna let them buy a new house unless I get to come over sometime :) hahaha..... I freaking wish....

Sneha Sneha said:

Some of you are actually trying to make this a bad thing. Pathetic. There is nothing wrong with them making a general statement about one day getting their parents a home.
Some of you try so hard, just stfu.

kayla can rawr kayla can rawr said:

on my computer, it says im first.
so shut the hell up and stop starting fights with me over the stupidest thing you fucking piece of trash.
jesus christ.

kayla can rawr kayla can rawr said:

exactly!
because acting has everything to do with music.

Anonymous said:

well considering that two of them are legally adults and should be living on their own anyway.. it would be understandable. i mean they aren't gonna live together when frankie is 17 i hope..

lmfao. that's what i'm saying.
i love them, but. eh. i don't know.
i don't think they'll be around much longer.
with an exception - of their crazy, obsessive little girl fans.

lol. 'buy our parents a house' is just a nicer way of saying we want to move out.

or them to move out.

Yvonne Yvonne said:

Well, ya gotta think that Kevin may want to spend even more "quality time" with Danielle, some that isn't great when mom&dad are around

JBlove JBlove said:

i think it's sweet that they want to buy their parents a house. I know that some of you are like omj what spoiled rich kids, but when they have so much money to spare they might as well spend it and do something nice for their parents. If they didn't spend money people would start criticizing them for being cheap. so give them a break, they're way sweet and talented.

I think its so sweet how they never say that they look for in a girl is if she is pretty or not.
I love how it is never about the looks for them.
Yeah all of their "famous" girlfriends have been pretty, but I still think its so amazing how they don't say stuff like that.

----------------------------
I know that is so annoying and the same for the other 2, nobody is gonna throw themselves from a building( I don't think so) if they would just tell the truth,their credibility is down the drain with me.

anonymous anonymous said:

So sos wasn't about Miley? I always thought it was, if he's telling the truth it couldn't have been and how old was he when he started dating 5? Hey wait now I just remembered he said his first kiss was at 13,so if he wrote a break up song when he was 12,he never kissed that girl? I'm very nosey but the more they talk the more questions I have.haha

thats wat ive been thinkin! he says all of his songs are about something that happened 2 him!! so i wonder who pre miley songs like one day at a time, please be mine, 7 05 nd mor are written about??

Yvonne Yvonne said:

MELANI---LOL at "throw themselves from a building"! Thats the same way I describe it sometimes. I actually think Nick and Selena are "off" right now. It seems like they break up and then get back together a lot. Joe is NEVER gonna be taken. His relationships are always gonna be so short its not worth investing your time in it(even if he really is with Camilla, its not serious). Kevin on the other hand has been with Danielle a LONG TIME and its rumored he might ask her to marry him soon. Thats why I get upset with him more tan Joe or Nick cause we all KNOW he is very much taken, and IMO, Danielle is the luckiest girl ever

Sure, it's all about the music but they have countless endorsement deals, books, camp rock, a show... right Kev

I have two houses.
sure, they're not million dollar ones, but I do have 2.
so what am I, a jerk now?

Nope.

Neither are they.
THEY HAVE THE FUCKING MONEY.
WHO GIVES A SHIT WHAT THEY DO WITH IT? They could literally flush 100,000,000 dollars of theirs down the toilet and I wouldn't care !
NOT AFFECTING ME/MY LIFE.
WHY DO YOU ALL CARE WHAT THEY DO WITH THEIR MONEY?
JEEEEEEEZ.
they don't need your opinion on what they should by.
