After being married for three and a half years, Kevin Jonas and his wife Danielle Jonas are still very much in love, despite having their marriage put on display in their E! TV show Married to Jonas.

During a recent interview, Kevin opened up about his wife, and how she’s the opposite of him – at least when it comes to organization.

“It’s funny because both of us are pretty much the opposite,” Kevin said. “I’m very messy so sometimes that bites me in the butt because she’s extremely organised and clean, so it definitely takes a toll, but it’s nice having that person with you. You start to realise how nice and clean everything is all the time.”

Kevin and Danielle still have their fair share of disagreements, which can be seen on their reality show. In a recent episode of Married to Jonas, Danielle and Kevin were shown arguing over Danielle pursuing a job at a magazine while Kevin prepared to head out on tour with The Jonas Brothers.

“The other night we had an argument. Sometimes you say things you don’t necessarily mean or it’s misconstrued,” Kevin said. “All you want is for the person to be with you. It came across as me never wanting her to get a job and that I think her place is in the house, and that wasn’t my opinion at all.”

While Kevin is gearing up for a summer tour with his brothers and the release of their new album, he shared that spending time together can get a little tough.

“Anytime we can be together is important and anything fun or unique we haven’t done in a while is always nice,” he said.

“Going for dinner is always a plus or going to a movie or bowling.”

You can catch Kevin and Danielle on Married to Jonas Sunday nights on E!

Looks like Selena Gomez is showing off her maturity not only in her new music, but also in her movies!

While at the Hangover Part III premiere on Monday (May 20), actress Jamie Chung spoke with E News about her new movie Rudderless, which she stars alongside the 20-year-old Selena. According the Jamie, Rudderless is a dark drama following the aftermath of a murder.

“It’s the parents’ perspective of being the parents of a murderer, a mass murder like Sandy Hook,” Jamie explained. “You never get to hear the parents’ perspective of dealing with the hurt and the betrayal and the anger and the love. It’s a really interesting angle on a story like that. It’s pretty dark but it’s kind of beautiful in a way.”

As for Selena, Jamie said that Selena is definitely heading in a different direction from her Disney days. “The thing is, she’s so talented, you’re really going to see a different side,” she said. “It’s going to be a bit more fragile. I think it’s a side you’ve never seen of her. It’s quite fantastic.”

Jamie added, “It’s dark. But she’s always so lovely.”

This isn’t the first time Jamie and Selena have worked together, the pair both starred in the Disney Channel Original Movie Princess Protection Program back in 2009!

After he made the exciting announcement last week that his new album Summers Paradise will be released on July 16, Cody has now revealed what fans can expect from the album in a brand new interview.

While chatting with Radio.com, Cody explained that he wanted his album to represent him as an artist. He said Summers Paradise is a “classic summer album” with a few pop songs, including his first single from the album Pretty Brown Eyes.

“I grew up playing the acoustic guitar and I decided I really wanted to go back to my roots on this album,” Cody said. “I grew up listening to Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz, and John Mayer so they definitely inspired a lot of the album too. There’s a really mellow, acoustic sound to it.”

Cody also revealed that he wrote some of the songs on the new album, including the song Awake All Night.

“ produced it almost entirely myself,” he said. “It turned out to be something that happened super quick.”

“A lot of artists will either write the song or just sing the vocal. It was a big step for me, especially at 16, to write and produce and play every instrument.”

The Australian heartthrob admitted the song he is most excited for fans to hear is called Summertime of Our Lives.

“It’s an all-around beautiful record,” Cody said. “Acoustic guitar, ukulele and vocal and that’s it. It’s definitely an indicator to how I’m growing as an artist, how my music and sound is evolving.”

Cody is currently preparing for the Paradise tour, which begins at the end of the month. During the show, Cody will be performing his hit songs, along with some new music from the upcoming album.

“With this show, just as with the new album, I really wanted to share myself and share my lifestyle and share who I am as a person, more than just sharing myself and my music,” Cody said.

With just a couple weeks to go until the big premiere of Nickelodeon’s new show Sam & Cat, the stars of the show Ariana Grande and Jennette McCurdy sat down to talk about their new show, as well as their real-life friendship!

Both girls are known for being singers, however, they revealed that they will not be singing on the new show!

“We don’t sing it ” Ariana told Just Jared Jr. “Michael Corcoran sings it, who did the theme song for iCarly and all the songs on Victorious.”

“Basically, Dan Schneider, the producer, he asked us ahead of time if we wanted to sing and we just didn’t want to.” Jennette added. “We wanted to make a show that was funny and that really focused on one thing, and entertaining kinds. Our music definitely does that too, but we kind of wanted to keep it separate.”

Ariana continued, “And every other show is musically-driven now, since Hannah Montana, so we wanted to do something classic, a classic TV show. And the vibe of the theme song, the first time you hear it, it sounds like a classic.”

As for Ariana and Jennette, the pair were already pals beforehand from working with Nickelodeon. When asked about their first impressions of each other, Ariana said “‘Wow, she’s the coolest.’”

“I thought Ariana was so fun and so friendly to people.” Jennette said. “It was at a promo shoot and Nathan and I were hanging out, and she came right over, gave us hugs, and was like, “Hi! I watch iCarly.” I told her I looked up one of her songs, “Stick Around.” I told her she had an amazing voice. We started talking about iCarly and we found out we have the same birthday, we were singing “Jingle Bells” together. It was good memories.”

“It was fun! I was like, “Oh my gosh, Mom, Jennette is so cool!”” Ariana said.

Jennette added, “You called Nathan and I “babies.””

“That was my thing back then. I called everyone “babies.”” Ariana said. “Like, “Oh my god, that’s babies.” It made no sense, but at 14, that was like the cool thing to me.”

He may be busy touring with Taylor Swift this summer, but British sensation Ed Sheeran has not put his new music on the back burner. In a new interview with HuffPost Teen, Ed revealed that he’s pretty much done writing his second album, and that despite achieving huge success with his debut album, he won’t be changing what he’s writing about just to appeal to a fan base.

Check out Ed talk about staying out of the Tabloids, his goals and new music below!

You’ve said in a few interviews that you’ve really prepared yourself for this moment. What about fame has really surprised you? Sheeran: Nothing, it’s everything that people said it would be. Everything. The good parts and the bad parts.

What’d they say it would be? They said your friends would not just live out every single dream you have for yourself in a matter of months and have to make new dreams for yourself, which has happened.

Do you have new dreams? Oh, every single new dream I make for myself is achieved within a month anyway, so I keep having to make new dreams.

What’s it this month? I guess playing a stadium, and I’m doing that Saturday.

Cool. Where? Detroit. That might be my next tattoo. I might get, “D.”

You’re described as a “new artist,” kind of like fun., even though you’ve been around forever. Does that bother you? No, I think I am a new artist to the music industry as a whole. It doesn’t bother me, I might even be considered a new artist on the second album.
