Joe Jonas has definitely become bolder if not more honest than the usual. For his interview for Vulture, the 24-year-old Jonas bother and former Disney star confessed it all: from smoking weed with Disney co-stars Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato and even to losing his virginity at 20 despite having his purity ring on.
Yes! Joe Jonas had been a bad boy, but he isn't proud of it. Instead he wants to reveal as much as he could to air out some of the things that have been bugging him all this time. However, most of his statements definitely came as a surprise to his fans.
First was the fact that during his Disney Channel days, he already got involved into a not so G-rated story, and it's all because of Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato's peer pressure on him. "The first time I smoked weed was with Demi (Lovato) and Miley (Cyrus)," Joe said adding, "I must have been 17 or 18. They kept saying, 'Try it! Try it!' so I gave it a shot, and it was all right. I don't even smoke weed that often anymore."
Of course we know that Joe and Demi had a relationship in the past, but the singer/actor confessed that he felt trapped during that time because of the "X Factor" judge's mental and drug issues. " ... We eventually dated for a month," Jonas said. "I really got to know her and got to see the ins and outs of what she was struggling with, like drug abuse. I felt like I needed to take care of her, but at the same time I was living a lie, because I wasn't happy but felt like I had to stay in it for her, because she needed help. I couldn't express any of that, of course, because I had a brand to protect."
Joe continued on, even revealing the incident that led Demi to be sent to rehab. "Demi ended up punching a girl in the face on a plane, because she thought the girl was blaming her for something," he told Vulture. "Everybody gasped, and the girl just started bleeding. That's when her team and her family told her, "'You need to go into rehab.'"
Nevertheless, his next revelation is undeniably more shocking than his first. The Jonas brothers were famous back then for their purity rings, meaning they have to wait after marriage for them to lose their virginity. Joe admitted that it was part of their church's program called 'True Love Waits,' where participants are required to get married first prior to having sex.
But this Jonas confessed that he lost his virginity at 20. And according to ABC News, it was during that time when Joe and 'Twilight' star Ashley Greene were reportedly dating. Plus, he considers his relationship with Greene as his first 'serious' commitment ever. "I was sexually active at 20... I'm glad I waited for the right person, because you look back and you go, 'That girl was bats--t crazy.' I'm glad I didn't go there." Nonetheless, it didn't last that long for the two. "I was living out in L.A. by myself, and at the end of the day, long distance didn't work. It's incredibly difficult," the 24-year-old said.
