The Jonas Brothers: Entertainers of the Year

The Year in Jonas

Are the Bros the hardest-working act in show business? Since January, the trio has been plowing through a demanding year: They sold out two headlining tours, released the now-platinum A Little Bit Longer, and even squeezed in a little fun time. But wait, there's more! Here's a look back at the highlights from their madcap 2008.

Jan. 31: 'Look Me in the Eyes'
The Bros launch their tour with a free parking-lot show in Tucson that shuts down a highway. They go on to fill venues ''we never thought we'd sell out,'' Kevin says.

Feb. 1: Miley's Movie
Their big-screen debut with Cyrus nets $65 million — and zillions of new fans. Of the Disney double dip, Nick says, ''It was overload for some kids.'' In a good way.

April 24: Oprah!
''Oprah was the only interview I was super-nervous to go into,'' says Kevin. ''She can ask you anything and you have to know what you're about to say.''

June 20: 'Camp Rock' Premiere
Kevin claims they didn't know their Disney TV movie — which premiered to 8.9 million viewers — would be so huge. Has he heard of High School Musical?

Aug. 12: Album Release
The trio storms the Big Apple — hitting TRL, GMA, and Regis & Kelly — to promote Longer. They also multi-task, shooting scenes for a 3-D movie of their own.

Aug. 15: Joe's Birthday
''We had a bonfire in Woodstock,'' says Joe of his 19th birthday. ''It was cool. It was just me and my best friends roasting hot dogs and hanging out.''

Sept. 3: Meeting the Obamas
Okay, not the president-elect, but the littlest Obamas, Malia and Sasha, backstage at Ellen. ''We heard they were fans,'' says Kevin, ''so it was cool to meet them.''

Sept. 22: Shooting 'Jonas'
Production begins on their new Disney Channel sitcom. ''Doing a TV show is such a massive thing,'' Kevin says. ''We're writing all the songs.''

Oct. 27: Gas Leak
The JoBros announce that, with youngest brother Frankie, they'll star in the movie adaptation of Walter the Farting Dog.
