Are the Jonas Brothers getting too old for the biz? Research at the Disney Channel, uncovered by The Daily Beast, says that Nick, Joe, and Kevin are taking a hit in album sales and ratings for their Disney show, “JONAS.”
“I think it’s something of a changing of the guard in terms of a teen pop crush,” said Billboard editor Ann Donahue. “Justin Bieber is definitely the next new thing and is overshadowing the Jonas Brothers.” The Disney research says that 8 and 9 year old girls still love the Jonas Brothers, but 9 and 10 year old girls are embarrassed to talk about them.
While Bieber might have Usher (and Twitter) behind him, the JoBros have the Disney marketing machine on their side. When the newly revamped version of their show – now called “JONAS LA” hits screens on June 20, Disney execs hope that the Jonas Brothers will become cool again.
Hmm. Don’t hold your breath, Mickey Mouse. “The Jonas Brothers aren’t ‘in’ as much anymore,” one young girl told Disney. Another said, “I became less of a fan when ‘Twilight’ came out, and now I’m more into Taylor Lautner.”
If Disney fans are looking for “Twilight”-style romance, they’re not going to get it with “JONAS LA.” The Disney Channel — which caters to 6-14 year olds — allows only one kiss per season, so don’t expect Joe, Nick, or Kevin to steam up your TV screens any time soon.

Justin is boring and I know Twilight is something about Vampires,my friends are making me pretend I’m some vampire called Alice,but I still have no Idea what on earth it is and,when did it go out? I only heard it through my friends….
But..I also think the Jonas are losing popularity.I use to be crazy for them,in Peru they had to do 2 concerts! They both sold out.I luckily got in the second one,but anyway yes I am a ten year old and yes our age are a bit embarrassed about that now.
P.S. Please don’t tell me off for not knowing twilight..
