This isn’t a huge story, just something that made me chuckle. Kevin Jonas, who was the least remarkable member of the Jonas Brothers, is doing some press to promote his new app. The best bit of gossip I ever heard about Kevin is how he fell in love with (and married) a random woman who cut his hair. She didn’t know who the Jonas Brothers were! Danielle Deleasa has since gotten with the program, and she and Kevin do reality shows and have a baby girl, Alena Rose.
Back when the Jonas Brothers split, the drama wasn’t as heavy as the current 1D crisis. Lots of fans were still quite upset. My daughter pushed her Jonas magnets to separate corners of the refrigerator. (“They’re broken up,” she sadly said.) With the benefit of retrospect, Kevin has offered some unsolicited advice to Zayn Malik. These musings come after Zayn slammed Louis Tomlinson and called him “bitchy.” Kevin spoke with Elvis Duran (via People) to discuss some hard realities about the death of a boy band.
The big Jonas split: “Notice how when [the Jonas Brothers] went dark, we went dark. We didn’t do a single interview, we didn’t talk to anybody, we just went dark. I just got really depressed for a while. There’s a mourning process!”
Kevin still misses the band: “I miss touring. I miss seeing people on the road. I miss that adrenaline rush, there’s nothing like it. When you go out on stage … and you greet the crowd, there’s nothing like it.”
Is he “Jealous” of Nick’s solor career? “I don’t know how many times I literally hear this,” he said of the persistent rumors. “It’s the worst pun in the world from some idiotic frat guy. It’s like, ‘You must be ‘Jealous’ of Nick!’ .. Constantly! It’s like, why? He’s doing his thing. I’m doing mine! He’s happy. I’m happy.”
His advice to Zayn: “In the midst of that intensity, he should go dark for a long time. You gotta go dark for at least six weeks! Like, underground, you gotta go hard, like you’re done. … You have to let the dust clear. Anything you do then will be scrutinized.”

This is actually very solid advice. The One Directioners weren’t pleased at Zayn’s outburst. He immediately lost nearly 100,000 Twitter followers, and that number has likely grown. Zayn made the problem worse by begging his former fans come back. He tweeted, “Don’t know why I’m being attacked for defending myself , people got it twisted! I love my fans ?! Every single one of you.” Yeah … he really needs to hand his Twitter password over to a trusted party and re-cultivate some mystery.
