It was only a matter of time until one of the Jonas Brothers decided he's the Beyoncé of the group and we're glad it's Nick Jonas.The young one confirmed today that, about six months ago, he started working on a side project in Nashville with four musicians not named Jonas.
Hence, the debut album from Nick Jonas & The Administration is due out sometime next year.
(Sounds like Nick is taking his nickname Mr. President a little too seriously but when you're a little millionaire at the age of 17, you can do whatever you want.)
The admission from Nick puts to rest the speculation that the teen was branching out on his own and comes hours after Mama Jonas spilled the beans.
Earlier today, Parade magazine released quotes from its Sunday issue in which Denise Jonas says, "Nick is working on a solo act-it's called Nick Jonas and The Administration. Shhh! He's at the photo shoot for the album cover right now."
Of course, the question remained, would this mean the end of the JoBros?
Hardly, according to the heartthrobby trio.
Ticking off their points of discussion one by one, Joe, Nick and Kevin (or whoever does their blogging) wrote on their website today that "The Jonas Brothers are NOT breaking up!" as well as "We are ALL excited about this project AND what we are doing TOGETHER!" and "We plan to make music together for as long as we can."
"A three chord strand is not easily broken", read another message from Joe and Kevin, "and one thing's for sure…this three chord strand is stronger now than it's ever been."
They're also planning another world tour for next summer, which is a relief, but still...
"This project would only expand the Jonas brand," a source reassured E! News. But strengthen the brand like how Justin Timberlake breaking out on his own helped *NSYNC?
"The music is amazing and really shows off Nick's vocal range," the source added.
In the meantime this will give Kevin plenty of time to get married and Joe can, uh, what's he got going on? Oh, right! He's maybe romancing Demi Lovato. See, everyone wins!

Adam Lambert unveiled the cover for his forthcoming debut CD, For Your Entertainment, on his official site this afternoon, and to paraphrase the sadly under-appreciated 2003 single from current Dancing With the Stars contestant Mya: This cover’s like…whoa! A publicist for 19 Recordings reveals that the image was shot by Warwick Saint in August in New York City. And, to put it mildly, it’s a little more, um, out there than the pensive-yet-ultimately-benign images we’ve come to expect from Idol runners-up. (If you’re not familiar with the show’s post-second-place oeuvre, do check out Exhibit A, Exhibit B, and Exhibit C. Not that there’s anything wrong with them, of course.) Is America ready for this particular jelly? Some of my EW colleagues aren’t terribly optimistic, but might I remind them, we’re dishing a dude who sailed through Grand Ole Opry week with a hyper-sexual, sitar-infused take on “Ring of Fire.” Anyhow, while the Glambert nation collectively wipes its brow, catches its breath, and attempts to unlock its eyes from Adam’s hypnotic gaze (good luck!), here’s five things I think the cover art reveals about the artist and his debut disc, set to drop Nov. 23.
Show Luo (Xiao Zhu) and Rainie Yang filmed the CTS idol drama <Hi My Sweetheart> and slapped for real. When the director gave the signal, Rainie did not utter a word and “papapa” gave nine slaps on Show’s face. Show was astonished and almost became infuriated. He immediately looked into a mirror and sourly said, “Is my face red? No one has slapped my face before, Rainie Yang, you’re in big trouble!”

Lindsay Lohan's father is deeply concerned about his troubled daughter, fearing she could be 'dead in a year'.
The court has gave out the final ruling on the lawsuit between the 3 members of Dong Bang Shin Ki and SM Entertainment.
My great aunt is 92 and, as of Friday, she's a Windows 7 PC.
Nicholas Tse and Cecilia Cheung should get younger brother and sister to play with Lucas. Earlier it was rumored that Cecilia was pregnant with twins and is currently at home resting. Nic had never confirmed that his wife was pregnant or not. Yesterday Nic was asked if Cecilia was really pregnant with twins? He reluctantly admitted that his wife's health has "changed" recently.
First, she admits to cutting herself, now she's making criminals of meat-eaters. Make no mistake, Natalie Portman is all grown up and not some shrinking violet.
So, you're Michael Jackson, and, if the death-hoax theorists are correct, you're alive and presumably pretty impressed by the stunt you pulled in June.
Twins members Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) and Gillian Chung (Ah Gil) yesterday appeared together for an EEG event, but the two did their interviews separately. Asked Ah Sa if TWINS will be getting back together soon because she's been appearing with Ah Gil quite often lately? Their manager Mani Fok responded for them saying that their jobs are scheduled until mid-next year, so there are currently no plans yet. Ah Sa expressed that TWINS debuted in 2001, so in 2011 it will be their 10th anniversary, maybe thats when they get back together. She also felt that it cannot be rushed, waiting for a good time is important. She said: "EEG won't want use to die!"
The Apple Tablet rumors this week have already been tenuous and, well, more tenuous, so let’s throw another vaguely unbelievable tidbit into the ring. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Apple have been shopping around their tablet to Australian media companies, “in an effort to sound out whether they would be interested in delivering their content to the tablet.” The paper suggests that Apple have been sending around details of the tablet’s specifications; however none of the media companies themselves would talk on the record.
We’re still waiting for our HTC HD2 review unit to drop, but somewhere in the world there must be a secret supply of the promising Windows Phone as SoloPalmari have managed to acquire one for a swift unboxing. Your home experience won’t quite be the same as this – they admit this isn’t the final packaging, in fact – but considering we’ll gobble up just about any live HD2 footage we can find, you won’t hear us arguing.
Ratings for 'Autumn's Concerto' have reached a new high of 4.02, easily claiming the first place position. Vanness Wu happily said: "Earlier, I received a text message from Jolin and she said that she & her girlfriends are all discussing about this drama." On the other hand, Ady An has been busy promoting in mainland China and didn't have time to watch the Sunday broadcast, but when she turned on her cellphone once she was back in Taiwan, it was flooded with congratulation texts. She laughed saying: "Me & Vanness' bed scene will air this week. ah I feel so shy!" But Director Chen teased her: "It's okay, just drink wine before you watch."
Remember the mysterious HTC smartphone that showed up this time last week, and that we all assumed was the upcoming Snapdragon-based HTC Dragon? Well, the source of those images, TheUnlockr, has decided it’s the Dragon too, or to be more exact Verizon’s version of the handset, the HTC Passion. He’s claiming 90-percent certainty on the ID, and if so you could be seeing this Android smartphone on shelves by the end of the year.
