Just a few weeks after Nick Jonas let it be known that he was taking some time away from the JoBros juggernaut for a little side project, a portion of an upcoming single claiming to be Nick's has been "leaked." (Interesting how stuff like this always seems to happen.)

Anyway, in this 30-second snippet of "Who I Am" from Nick Jonas & the Administration, we get a taste, albeit a little one, of what to expect down the road.

While there's not really much to go on here, needless to say his fans will be pleased.

Of course, there's more to Nick than just music.

One thing the Swiss aren't neutral about? Jonas Brothers.

Unfortunately, Switzerland is going to have to wait a little longer for Nick, Joe and Kevin to rock the chalet.  

The "Paranoid" singers pulled out of a concert Saturday night in Zurich after 17-year-old Nick Jonas fell ill with an upper respiratory infection, according to the band's Twitter page, which said the youngest JoBro had been "advised by his doctor not to speak or sing." 

This is the first time the scream-inducing trio has ever canceled a show due to sickness, and the polite lads were apologetic to their fans. 

On Sunday morning Nick thanked fans for their support, tweeting "I am happy to tell everyone that I woke up this morning, and I'm already feeling better! Thanks for all the prayers. Can't wait to rock Bilbao!"

And in other good news, the Disney Channel announced the band's series, JONAS, just got picked up for a second season.

Check out Nick Jonas in this music video spoof featuring Matt Damon and Demi Lovato!

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.

Looking like a house-music Matt Damon, Nick Jonas (and the Joni) crank it up and prank it up with Demi Lovato (and other pals) in this spin-sational dance spoof. Nick rocks a way-bogus 'stache to maximum comic effect and offers this inspirational lyric: "My jeans are so tight, it makes these people dance." Wow, that's tight!

No need to pinch yourselves, tweeners. You're not dreaming.

Disney has gathered its brightest stars, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez and the Jonas Brothers for a "We Are the World"-like music video for Friends for Change: Project Green. "Send It On" is meant to unite the kiddies in green living and protecting planet Earth.

That's probably why they ditch the big stage and energy-sucking bright lights for the great outdoors. At first, we were really distracted by the oh-so-convenient intimate pairing of Miley and Nick Jonas. And then we were bugged by Joe Jonas wearing yet another pink shirt and impressed with Selena out-adorabling the lot of them. But we guess there was some sort of charitable point.

Somehow, though, the whole thing seems far less poignant than Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie and tons of other major stars teaming up for humanitarian aid in Africa. Maybe that's because it had nothing to do with powerful mice.

All these guys won Teen Choice Awards. Did you see them?

Nothing really beats a good costume gag…or three.

The Jonas Brothers apparently have found the ultimate cure for on-the-road ennui: wear a silly costume.

Perhaps we should have seen this coming when Joe did that ridiculous Beyoncé video, but we still got a chuckle when we clicked onto the photo they tweeted and saw Kevin, Joe and another band member dressed as the Three Little Pigs. (Question: Does that make Miley Cyrus the Big Bad Wolf?)

(Nick, however, is absent from the photo. Why such a party pooper, bud?)

It wasn't Kev and Joe's first goofball moments of the tour, either.

This weekend, Joe was spotted looking like he'd just arrived from a DeLorean. Monday, he showed his true, juicy colors as a bunch of grapes.

And big brother Kevin got in on the action—or, got some action, as the case may be—when he posed as a baseball player who grabs his fiancé's behind! Best costume yet!

So, again, we have to ask, where's Nick's suit?

Yeah, Nick! Why so serious? Oh yeah. This.

The universe will not allow the whole Cyrus family to be happy. Gotta keep things in balance, that's The Secret or whatever.

Take Ms. Miley Cyrus. She declared herself :) to be single: "I am lovinggg being single :) life is so carefree!!! Spending the day enjoying Sonic, Music, @mommytish, and the beautiful sun in Savannah." 

Could that mean she and Nick Jonas aren't really back together? Did all that jet skiing mean nothing? And how can she be so happy about it ending so soon if that's what really happened?

Oh, turns out Miley isn't so :) about her singledom. Just a few hours later she came down with a mean case of the sads. A sampling:
