Joe Jonas and Camilla Belle Vacation Together

Joe Jonas and Camilla Belle vacationing in Mexico

Although most people didn’t know that Joe Jonas and Camilla Belle had been dating until late last week, it turns out the two had already been spending quality time together. According to Us Weekly, this picture of the actress with the brothers was taken in Mexico back on November 9. This means Joe and Camilla were vacationing together just weeks after the breakup with Taylor Swift. (I guess life moves a lot more quickly when you’re a celebrity.)

Interestingly enough, it looks as if Jonas may have been seeking out Camilla months before they ever met. After the jump, you can see the 19-year-old reference Belle in a video made back in March.

Jonas and Swift: Superstars Turned Super Childish

Camilla BellaJoe JonasTaylor Swift

Hey, they actually are kids. At times I’ve wondered if some Disney celebs aren’t actually Stepford Stars - they look like teens, but they’re really bionic, singing, money-making robots. In some ways, it’s satisfying when they slip up. This at least proves that, while they may be beautiful and rich and talented, at least they’re still human. At the same time, the back-and-forth press games between and Taylor Swift are starting to get a little - okay, a lot - tedious.

Swift seemed to take the high road regarding the Jonas bro split, saying “He’s not in my life anymore, and I have absolutely nothing to say about or to him” to the New York Times. That was on the ninth (Sunday), and that was the right thing to say.

But then news broke that Joe Jonas, one-third of the pop sensation The Jonas Brothers, was seeing music video hottie

Joe Jonas Responds: “I Never Cheated”

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Break-ups,

Joe Jonas and Taylor Swift

With the news of his relationship with Camilla Belle now out, Joe Jonas has been forced to go on the defense.

In a recent post on the Jonas Brothers’ MySpace page, the 19-year-old tries to address many of the questions currently being posed. While he doesn’t deny leaving Taylor Swift for another girl (he actually doesn’t even mention the country singer by name), he does deny ever cheating on her. Jonas also claims the infamous “27-second” phone call wasn’t his fault. (Apparently he thought Swift would had something more to say after hearing “I’m interested in someone else.”)

You can read Joe’s version of the story in its entirety after the jump.

Taylor Swift Loses Joe Jonas to Camilla Belle

Camilla Belle and Joe Jonas

UPDATE: You can read Joe Jonas’ side of the story here.

NOTE TO THE LADIES: If a man spends less than 30 seconds breaking up with you, it’s probably because he already has someone waiting in the wings.

Back in early October, Joe Jonas put an end to his high-profile relationship with Taylor Swift. Despite several public outings, the 19-year-old eventually gave the country star the boot over the phone. Now it appears he might have had his eyes set on someone a little less blonde.

Taylor Swift Creates Her Own Behind the Scenes Video

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Videos, Country,


What does a country superstar do when she’s not performing on stage? Well, Taylor Swift’s apparently just like any other 18-year-old. When she’s not being dumped over the phone, she’s talking to cats, fighting with her brother or lip-synching to someone else’s music. (In this case, Swift is mouthing the words to Katy Perry’s “Hot N Cold.”)
