Though we still don't agree with Lady Gaga that they're the new Beatles, it's no surprise that the Jonas Brothers get a big reception across the big pond. When Nick, Joe and Kevin went to London on Wednesday for the premiere of "The Jonas Brothers: The 3-D Experience," they were met by the usual gaggle of screaming teenage girls.
"We don't get to do this every day, but this is definitely crazy," Kevin said, while middle brother Joe added, "It's exciting. I think you don't know what to expect when you do this, and this is the highlight for us."
The boys, who took MTV News along on their whirlwind Theater Invasion Tour when the movie opened Stateside, reiterated the purpose of their concert film. " 'The Jonas Brothers Experience' is a movie we made for our fans," Kevin explained. "We wanted them to experience what it was like to go to a show and get the perspective of being onstage with us. We wanted to put as much of our personal life, as much of our onstage life in it as we could."
For many American JoBros fans, the big highlight of the film is one scene where the guys are caught shirtless. We can't imagine their British counterparts would disagree. "The thing is, we were in the midst of the show, so we were just continuing like a show," Nick explained of the scene. "So when we went backstage, we didn't realize they were there and we were changing ... we went, 'Oh, my gosh! Wow! We might want to get them out of here.' So it was in the moment."
