The Jonas Brothers Wear Purity Rings

Fri, 22 February 2008 at 12:15 pm

The Jonas Brothers all practice abstinence and wear purity rings to prove it. Here’s a snippet from the very lengthy article on the JoBros featured in Details Magazine:

“On a quiet Friday morning in a dressing room at Madison Square Garden, the Jonas Brothers hold out their hands to show off their purity rings. Kevin, Joe, and Nick Jonas—the teen-pop trio who stand, at this very moment, on the brink of hugeness—wear the metal bands on their fingers to symbolize, as Joe puts it, ‘promises to ourselves and to God that we’ll stay pure till marriage.’ Joe is 18. His ring is silver and adorned with a cross. ‘It actually ripped apart a little bit, just on the bottom, here, but I didn’t want to get a new one, because this one means so much to me,’ he says. Nick, who is 15, says, ‘I got mine made at Disney World. It’s pretty awesome.’ Kevin, at 20, is the oldest of the three, and while a punk-rock purity ring from Tiffany might represent the ultimate oxymoron, that’s exactly what he’s going for. His silver vow of abstinence is covered with studs. ‘It’s pretty rock and roll,’ Kevin says. ‘It’s getting banged up a little bit because of the guitar.’”

All of you people that are saying they will probably have sex soon or are gay. SHUT UP! You don’t even know them. They are Christians and there dad is a pastor. All their real fans know that. So stop saying bad things about them.

IF YOUR NOT A TRUE FAN, THEN DON’T EVEN POST COMMENTS ABOUT THEM. ALL YOU PEOPLE DO IS CRITICIZE THEM.

your gayyy @ 02/22/2008 at 5:40 pm

There not doing this just because there famous or for the show-buisness” they have had them for a comple years before they were famous.Nick got his when he was liek 12 and NO ONE knew who he was.They have them because thats what they belive in.It has nothing to do with there career, besides the fact that they hope younger kids who look up to them will make the same decision.

your gayyy @ 02/22/2008 at 5:44 pm

61, your an idiot.
THey have had them for over 4 years, they got them before
ANY ONE knew who they were, it hasnothing to do with them and the buisness there in and they werent forced to, they amde the decision themselves, although im sure his dad being a pastor had some say in it.

but seriously if you dont know what your talking about then dotn say ****.

Damn! All the christian’s post on this tread are freaky! Why in the world are you associating virginity and respect together?

Stupid religious people….

# 77

jess @ 02/22/2008 at 7:21 pm

I agree with some of you I was a big fan of britney spears back in the day and I remenber her sayin something about being virgin until marriage well now everybody knows(thanks to Justin) that it never happenned , so they should keep something like this private because they are gonna regret it later.

I am glad they aren’t afraid to stick by their convictions

jamie @ 02/22/2008 at 7:33 pm

#80, virginity is respecting your body. You’re not willing to risk getting diseases, and you won’t get someone pregnant. It shows that they have some self control and won’t just “hit it and quit it”. They won’t use someone for sex, or bring that into a complicated relationship.

Why would you say religious people are stupid? Because they’re not willing to sleep with everyone and get called a *****? Sex means different things to different people. It obviously doesn’t mean a lot to you, but to others it may. So try RESPECTING others in their choice to stay abstinent and supporting the fact that others are doing the same. Its their body, and let them do what they want with it.

Oh COME ON people.
Obviously most of you commenting here don’t even know the Jonas Brothers.
They have had their rings for 3-4 years.
And no, Disney did not ******* slap rings on their hands.
Their father is a pastor and they are very religious, so why can’t they stay abstinent?
I find it completely disgusting how girls (and guys) are losing their virginity in High school, and even in Middle School (fact), whoring around with basically anyone.
I am proud of the Jonas Brothers for being confident in themselves.

And also, why can’t they tell people they wear purity rings?
It’s not they yell in the street, “I WEAR A PURITY RING!”
They wear rings, and people will ask what they are.
So they answer. They’re not jerks and don’t say, “I rather not say”
Then more rumors will spread saying they’re married.

Some people on here are so immature, it sickens me.
Grow up!

If you don’t even like them, why are you even ******* posting on here?
You obviously don’t have a life.

# 81

Kelsey @ 02/22/2008 at 8:30 pm

PS. And why can’t you just respect their commitment?
You can’t compare them to Britney because her family was fcked up anyways.
The Jonas Brothers have a strong family background and will continue to be strong.
Geez, get your facts straight.

DAnielle @ 02/22/2008 at 8:51 pm

Yeah, this is really old news, BUT I also have a purity ring. I love the Jo Bros and how they stay so humble and down-to-earth. I totally agree with #24. And to #29, yes of course we wouldn’t - they’re not saying they’re not going to have sex. They’re saying they are going to wait until they’re ready and mature. There is a complete difference. No one nowadays is ready for sex under the age of 18. It’s ridiculous because the people that are having it young and before they are married are usually not so smart or educated people. They’re not thinking of risks or the consequences that could last a lifetime just by that one action. I am sure there are going to be comments left contradicting mine, and I’m ready - go at it. I just hope this speaks to some people and that they’ll actually think the next time their in a risky situation that could completely alter their lives.

Kevin is the 18 year old and Joe is the 20 year old you got it back ward

Young celebs shouldn’t broadcast things like that about themselves. Every time they get a girlfriend, people will only speculate if they’re still virgins or not.

They have said this countless amounts of time.

You guys are kind of late

It’s not the abstinence part that sounds completely gay, it’s the rings! Who really needs a ring to prove virginity? I don’t know any guys that wear rings in the first place, unless they’re married. They should keep their private life to themselves, what do they want a pat on the back? Weirdo’s
