Joe Jonas in NYC
Look at you, all grown up and making proper good music.
Well, it’s very exciting. I’ve been working hardcore for about six months. The single See No More is a little bit slower than the rest of the album, just because that’s where I was at when I wrote the song.
Which is going to do better, Chris Brown and Justin Bieber’s track or Chris Brown and yours?
Ha-ha! I dunno, I mean I guess we’ll just have to wait and see, right? But Close To You is pretty cool.
Why did you go solo, were you bored in the Jonas Brothers?
It just happened over time. I wanted to be able to work on a solo project and I brought up it up to my brothers. They were really supportive so I went for it.
How scary is going solo on a scale of spider in the bath to shark attack?
Well, both are both pretty freaky for me. I’ve swum with sharks but spiders freak me out.
How many of your songs are about girls?
Errrm, a good percentage! Some songs are about fans, some are about touring, but of course the majority are about relationships.
You guest judged on American Idol, have you got any tips for The X Factor judge, Tulisa?
I would say you gotta be really honest and that’s the tough part. If a person’s not good, it probably isn’t the right career for them. But there are some crazy fans of the show and you never know if somebody will show up at your house if you say there no good.
That didn’t happen though?
No, but they did say, “You live in Texas, don’t you?” she looked mad.
Texas is a really big state.
Yeah, luckily.
Justin Timberlake says he wont make another, and he’s only made two! what a jip. Can you imagine giving up music?
It’d be hard for me to give up music. I can see myself taking a good amount of time to do some more acting if it comes about. But right now I want to focus on the music.
Did you have fun appearing in the sitcom Hot In Cleveland?
It was awesome. Betty White (who plays Elka) is hilarious. she was sitting knitting away, and I went over and talked to her for like an hour. she was just the coolest.
Is she the oldest person you’ve tried to make friends with?
Ha-ha. I think so. she’s like, 90 now.
Growing up you wanted to be a comedian; know any good jokes?
What do you call a joke with no front legs and no back legs? you don’t call it, because it wont come anyway! quite sad but, you know, funny.
Have you seen Russell Brand since he joked about the Jonas Brothers at the MTV Awards?
I have, yeah. You gotta just sit back and laugh. I think he’s hilarious. I love his movies and I love his acting.
There were reports last year that you were dating our very own Pixie Lott – did you?
we went to dinner. I wouldn’t necessary call it a date, but of course somebody’s going to take a picture. She’s a good friend of mine; we actually wrote a couple of songs together.
But there’s no sign of Pixie on your album?
No, nothing. we were thinking of them maybe going on her album but she went in a different direction. If people want to hear the songs, I’ll reach out to her and we could do it again.
Do you regret talking so openly about your beliefs on virginity, because it was something people focused on too much?
I think there’s a bit of that. A lot of it was pretty private. If I could go back in time and be like, ‘don’t even talk about it, Joe’ then I probably would. At the same time I’m confident with the person I am today. As you get older you take some and you leave some of what you grew up with
