Joe Jonas made a surprise visit to Reddit this week, where the pop star dropped a few bombshells during a Q&A session he led, revealing details about how he lost his virginity and his split from the Jonas Brothers.
The 27 year old, now frontman of DNCE but once a member of a band alongside his brothers Nick and Kevin who all famously sported purity rings, a symbol of an undertaking not to have pre-marital sex, revealed that his promise went out the window back in 2010 after he lost his virginity to his then-girlfriend Ashley Greene.

So much for the squeaky-clean image, but he and Green and split two years later. To the delight of participants on Reddit, the incident came with an amusing tale…
“I didn’t have any condoms,” Joe explained. “So I went to our drummer Jack’s room — who was my roommate at the time — and I demolished his room looking for them. [I] found them underneath his underwear drawer. When he came home, he thought somebody broke into his room because his whole room was demolished. “I was in dire need. Needed to happen then and now. Safety first, kids.”

Joe was also quizzed about the sudden disintegration of the Jonas Brothers in 2013. He confirmed that it absolutely stunned him, but denied that the split was anything to do with a drug addiction, as has consistently been rumoured.
“When it happened, we were focussing on going on another tour and we had plans to hit the road and do what we had been doing for a while,” he recalled later on in the chat.
“Nick brought it to the table that he wanted to focus on different things, like acting and doing music on his own. It was really shocking to me because it was kind of all I had known was the Jonas Brothers, forever. So, I was pretty mad and confused because…I’ve been putting so much time and effort into this for so long and now I just have to stop and figure out what’s next.”
