That is what happens when I jump on the Arc machine at the Y and stay on it for 60 minutes. So here is the latest celebrity news that upset me.<\/p>\n<p>I watched E-News and saw an interview with Joe Jonas, the middle brother of the Jonas trio. For years, my daughter was enamored with the Jonas Brothers so I feel like I kind of know the boys. I liked the fact that they were clean cut and sang lyrics that weren&#8217;t demeaning girls and telling them to have sex with anything that moves.<\/p>\n<p>But Joe, come on. He was debuting his new music video. The video was about a love relationship and showed him and another girl naked in a bath tub (the shot was quick and you couldn&#8217;t see any significant body parts but the picture looked like they were nude in the tub together) . What does that say to screaming tweeners?<\/p>\n<p>He was also in bed, half dressed with a girl that we later see in a tee and panties. Let&#8217;s just say they were both quite physical.<\/p>\n<p>Joe Jonas in a hook up? NO I yelled at the monitor, &#8220;Joe, WHY did you have to do that!&#8221; Then Joe tells me he is going on tour with Britney Spears!!!OK my world didn&#8217;t collapse but I was really bummed. Wonder what Mama Jonas thought of that video? How about his pastor?<\/p>\n<p>The one group (I&#8217;m still holding hope for Taylor Swift) I thought was relatively G rated now has one member going PG13 and touring with Spears. It&#8217;s so disappointing. The video makes it look like Joe Jonas is like the rest of the secular culture, bedding a woman he has feelings for and making it look like it&#8217;s the normal course of relationships.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of moms won&#8217;t like what their baby girls are going to see with Joe&#8217;s new video. To be fair, compared to most music videos, this one is mild and even sweet in moments, but this is a Jonas Brother! I don&#8217;t want to see him in bed like every other pop star. I wanted him and his brothers to buck the odds and hold on to those Christian values. Remember the purity rings?<\/p>\n<p>Taylor Swift&#8211;Don&#8217;t let me down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK I admit, I am a little stuck on celebrity issues these past few days.
