The oldest of the singing Jonas Brothers, Kevin, 21, is engaged. After a concert in Vancouver, the romantic JoBro took an overnight flight to New Jersey, where he showed up at Danielle Deleasa's door, dropped to his knees and surprised her with a diamond ring that Jonas helped design.

The "American Idol" tour kicks off Sunday in Portland, Ore., and all seven of the guys agree on one thing -- their "boys bus" is going to be too crowded. "There's only one bus for the boys and there are seven of us, and no, Adam [Lambert] and Kris [Allen] don't get their own bus," Scott MacIntyre told E!Online. Even Michael Sarver was griping: "I'm not gonna lie. I just wish it was part of the budget to have a third bus. It's like the testosterone tour this year. No one is looking forward to the cramped boys' bus." By comparison, the three female finalists will have to ride with just a few moms and backup singers.
