Joe Jonas on "JONAS" Joe Jonas on "JONAS" Joe Jonas on "JONAS" Joe and Kevin Jonas on "JONAS" Joe and Kevin Jonas on "JONAS" Joe and Kevin Jonas on "JONAS" Joe and Kevin Jonas on "JONAS" Joe Jonas Pictures Joe Jonas stars as Joe Lucas, the fearless, attention grabbing lead singer of the group on the Disney Channel comedy series "JONAS." In Disney Channel's "Camp Rock," Joe Jonas showcases his multiple talents – acting, singing and dancing – in the role of Shane Gray, lead singer in the hottest pop-rock band. As the story unfolds, Shane is increasingly dissatisfied with fame and the manufactured sound his record label is forcing upon his band. After his frustration reaches a boiling point, he's sent packing by his band mates, Jason and Nate, back to Camp Rock, the place where they first connected. There, he regains his passion for music and warms up to fellow camper Mitchie Torres who appreciates him for his musical artistry, not his celebrity. Regarding the acting venture, Joe Jonas commented, "Before I auditioned for the role, I had a phone call with the director and he told me about the character and right away I was very into the movie. I really wanted to do it." Joe Jonas continued, "My character is a pop star who kind of loses his way and has to go back to his roots. And he's kind of a jerk so he's gotta grow out of that. It was fun to play him because I'm definitely not a jerk, so playing a jerk in the movie definitely, you know, it stretches me a little bit but I really enjoyed it." Comparing his role to his real-life experience with fame, Joe Jonas said, "We're always keeping each other in check and we have great parents so even when we're playing shows in front of thousands of people, they keep us grounded." Born August 15, 1989, in Casa Grande, Arizona, and raised in Wyckoff, New Jersey, Joe Jonas was exposed to music at an early age but had no intention of becoming a singer and instead, wanted to be a comedic actor. But when Joe Jonas accompanied his brother Nick to an audition for the Broadway musical "Oliver," the director wondered aloud if Nick had a brother who could sing too. That comment ultimately gave Joe Jonas the motivation to pursue his passion, music, as a career. With Joe Jonas performing lead vocals, tambourine and occasionally, guitar, he and his brothers formed Jonas Brothers in 2004. Kevin, Nick and Joe founded Jonas Brothers Change for The Children, a charity to benefit children suffering from illness, abuse and poverty.
