Jonas Brothers Dish On Fame & Dating

The Jonas Brothers have crazy schedules, yet they manage to keep their head on straight and stay grounded during all the madness.

“It’s all about attitude," Kevin Jonas told”Cosmo GIRL! "Our family motto is, ‘Live like you’re at the bottom, even if you’re at the top.' "

The band, made up of Kevin, 20; Joe, 18; and Nick, 15 just starred in their first TV movie, "Camp Rock," premiering this Friday. In addition the talented trio has ventured on an ongoing sold-out tour; they are due to release a new album in August; and they are stars in a scripted TV series filming this fall called the "Jonas Brothers."

“We knew we’d made it when we were on Perez Hilton,” Nick Jonas told ”Cosmo GIRL!"

Dating isn't an easy when you're a Jonas Brother, but getting a grip on the paparazzi presence has been a challenge they are overcoming.

“We do hang out with girls since we’re single guys," Nick Jonas told ”Cosmo GIRL! . "But we’ve matured in a sense that we know how to handle [the press] now.”


Rivers' Potty Mouth Gets Her Kicked Off British TV

Joan Rivers' salty tongue got her booted from a British daytime talk show in the middle of its live broadcast.

Rivers used two expletives while talking about Russell Crowe as a guest host on the live gab-fest "Loose Women." She was asked to leave during a commercial break.

The 75-year-old comedian said in a statement Tuesday she was sorry for the swearing, and assumed that a censor would be able to "bleep" the words out.

Then she cracked wise, saying the incident reminded her of her wedding night - because she was asked to leave in the middle of that, too.


NY Gossip Columnist Lawsuit Tossed

A judge has dismissed New York Post gossip columnist Jared Paul Stern's defamation lawsuit against the Daily News, supermarket mogul Ron Burkle, and Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Stern denied Burkle's claim that he'd demanded money to squelch negative news. The Clintons are friends of Burkle, and the former president complained about Stern's Page Six column. The Daily News reported on the fracas involving its rival.

Stern's lawsuit, filed in March 2007, accused Burkle and the Clintons of trying to defame and discredit him. He claimed the Daily News - along with a publicist and a former Secret Service investigator - conspired with them.

State Supreme Court Justice Walter Tolub said Tuesday that Stern didn't prove his case.


Taylor Dayne Pleads Out

Taylor Dayne has pleaded no contest to a reckless driving charge in connection with her March 6 arrest.

Beverly Hills Superior Court Judge Richard Stone ordered the entertainer to serve two years' probation and complete a Mothers Against Drunk Driving program, district attorney spokeswoman Sandi Gibbons said.

Dayne wasn't present in court Monday and her attorney entered the plea on her behalf.

The singer had been charged with driving under the influence, but prosecutors decided the reckless driving charge was more appropriate, Gibbons said.

Best known for her 1987 hit, "Tell It to My Heart," Dayne launched a comeback in 2005 that was chronicled on the VH1 series "Remaking: Taylor Dayne."


Amy Winehouse Undergoing Tests After Fainting

A spokesman says soul diva Amy Winehouse is having more tests in a London hospital after fainting at home.

Spokesman Chris Goodman says initial tests were inconclusive and Winehouse will have more Tuesday while being kept under observation.

Goodman says the 24-year-old singer "seems to be fine in herself, but they are taking their time to be sure."

The spokesman said Winehouse collapsed at her north London home Monday after signing autographs for a group of fans. An assistant caught her before she hit the ground.

Winehouse's career has prospered despite wild nights, missed concerts and stints in drug rehab. The Sunday Times newspaper's annual Rich List has estimated her wealth at $20 million.
