Pop punk trio,The Jonas Brothers revealed on GMTV this morning that they face music competition in the future from Victoria and David Beckham's children!

Speaking on the breakfast TV station, the clean-cut pop stars admitted that Posh Spice told them that her sons want to follow in the footsteps of the Jonas boys and become the "Beckham Brothers".

"The whole entire family's amazing", said Kevin Jonas. "We got the honour to meet them at the Teen Choice Awards. And we met the boys and we took pictures with them - and Victoria said that the boys wanted to become the 'Beckham Brothers'. And so we were like, 'Yes!'"

"One of them can break-dance very well!" added Joe Jonas.

Brothers' success

Brothers Kevin, 20, Joe, 19 and Nick, 15, have broken all records as the first band to have three albums in the top ten of the USA's Billboard charts at the same time and their concerts sell out in a matter of minutes.

These US heart-throbs have over 700,000 myspace friends, 20 million profile views, 16 million plays and the video for S.O.S, which was their first UK single release, had over 17 million views on youtube.

The Jonas Brothers are also actors and their new film, Disney's Camp Rock, premieres at London's Royal Festival Hall on September 10th.

The boys are in London to win the hearts of British music fans and are set to cause a stir among teenage followers as they gear up for the launch of their new album, A Little Bit Longer, which is released later this month.

MTV mockery by Brand

Flamboyant comedian Russell Brand brought them into the limelight this week, when his mockery of their clean-cut Christian image while hosting the MTV Video Music Awards made the headlines. Sons of a pastor, the brothers wear 'purity rings' as a symbol of their abstinance from sex before marriage. The joker displayed a ring to the audience and hinted that he had 'won' it from one of the brothers backstage.

The Jonas story so far...

With musician parents, the brothers' childhood in New Jersey was inevitably musical.

The oldest, Kevin, who plays guitar and sings backing vocals, was poorly at home one day when he found a guitar and a "Teach Yourself Guitar" book lying around the house.

Nicholas, whose voice has been compared to that of Stevie Wonder, was "discovered" singing while getting his hair cut in a local barbershop. His voice caught the attention of a woman in the shop who immediately referred him to a professional showbiz manager.

Joseph's original plan, however, was slightly different than his brothers'. He first dreamed of becoming a comedian and wanted to audition for sketch comedy shows.

A family affair

Meanwhile, Daylight/Columbia Records, after hearing Nicholas' voice, began planning a solo record with him. Nicholas and his brothers began submitting songs that they'd written together with the intention of having them appear on Nicholas' solo album.

When the label became aware that Nicholas had musically talented siblings, a group performance was arranged. After a successful group audition was held for the label, the family direction was clear.

For the Jonas boys, the real fun began as they combined their musical abilities to write and record their debut album together, quickly realizing how lucky they were to have each other for both personal and professional inspiration.

For now the brothers are just relishing in the experience of having other people hear their music live and making new fans one city at a time while they are on the road.
