A joke from comedian/host Russell Brand about the Jonas Brothers' purity rings enraged fans and celebrities like Jordin Sparks and Paris Hilton at this year's VMAs. As Jordin announced T.I.'s performance, she stood up for Kevin, Nick and Joe's decision to wear the rings. "I just have one thing to say about promise rings," Jordin said. "It's not bad to wear a promise ring because not everybody--guy or girl--wants to be a slut."

I was soooo mad at the host for what he said! JONAS BROTHERS ROCK!!!!!!!!! And good for Jordin Sparks to stand up for them!!!
That guy knows nothing!! I stand behind the boys for making the decision to wear them in public. And good job for standing up for them. I luv JB
LUV U JORDAN!! when jordan said that, she wasn't just standing up for the JBs she was standing up for ALL the people that made that promise and wear purity rings! like me! thanks SO much jordan!! I LUV THE JONAS BROTHERS!! rock on Jordan!
Thank you sooooooooooo much jordan. He went way to far . At least he apoligized.
it was mean of that guy to say that about the jobros
it was really cool of jordin to stand up for them
btw-I LOVE THE JONAS BROTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:):):)
I think Russell was just 'trying' to be funny, if you don't know him he is a very crazy sex addict, yes, and i think the jonas brothers (even though i dislike them A LOT) are setting a good example for teens, but in my opinion you really don't need to wear a ring to prove you are pure...because you will know whether or not you are pure....anyway, they dont seem to be bothered at all about it....anyway, TOKIO HOTEL WON AN AWARD!!! WOOP! they are the only ones who were nominated that don't play on American radio regularly, (I.E. they have played, but only live)
Hey this is great
WOW, i think it was awesome for jordin to stand up for them. i would have LOVED to see his reaction to what she said...
I think it's cool that they ccan wait and promis to God too. I even have a promise ring.
I think it was awsome for jordan to stand up for them!
JB rocks!
It is nice Jordan stand up for the JB and I love that yall are staying true to god i got a promise ring too people at school make fun of me but i let it go in one ear and out the other i know i am makeing a good touies and I LOVE YOU NICK JONAS and i do love kevin and joe stay true tou you and god ok love cat. =)
The jonas brothes didnt deserve any of that. i am a true jonas fan and i gladly support there decision to wear those rings. in this timein society it is highly respectable to stay a virgin untill marrige. why? because you are not following the crowd. so i am glad they are different in a good way.
Now I love Jordin, I didn't know she was soo amazing! I want to go out and buy her cd's. Thanks Jordin And JB for being such awesome role models!
You go Jordin! Russell should had not said anything in the first place at least some body stood up for THE JONAS BROTHERS.
The Jonas Brothers suck big time, I love Russel for making fun of them being virgins.
omg you are so asome joe you are hot i love you that was funny
i thought it was nice of russel brand to apologize to the jonas brothers.
i dont think its a bad idea to wear purity rings!

Jordan and Paris thank you for sticking up for them and for all the people that wear a purity ring. That was really nice of you all.
P.S. You all rock
HOW DARE RUSSELL BRAND SAY THAT! tht is so mean i agree with jordin, they dont wanna act cool by losin their virginity... they wanna be themselves and they wanna stay true till the end...so russell just shut up u r probably jealous tht they didnt lose their virginty yet...
I SUPPORT THE JONAS BROTHERS!
How incredibly irresponsible of her to have much such an ignorant and rash comment not relating to what she was there to do, which was to introduce someone else. Especially from someone who sells herself to such a young audience. And if you're going to insult someone, do it with a bit of grace, not the awkward fumbling of atrociously green comebacks. Come on, Sparks, if you can handle having the worst debut album sales for any Idol winner since the show’s inception, you can take a joke.
hello joe im watching you watching kevin watching nick watching tv and i saw you half an hour ago getting out of bed in your pyjames lol im your offical stalker not really i live in belfast and im just a big fan lol
