more Joe breaking loose after the jump…

Jonas, 20 tells People magazine, “Demi and I knew going into our romantic relationship that it may not be an easy one,” “I realize over the time we have shared together that I feel I care more about our friendship right now. It was my choice to break up but I love her as a friend. She’s been there for me when I needed her. I will continue to be her friend and be there for her.”

Lovato, 17, took to Twitter to shoot down what she said were erroneous reports.

“There are so many crazy rumors flying around today,” she writes. “I’d like to clear a few things up. First, Joe and I did split but it wasn’t over the phone. Things didn’t work out but we’ll remain friends. Secondly, I am NOT dating anybody already. Nothing is more important to me than the relationship I have with my fans. Just thought you guys should know this.”

Over the phone rumor probably started because Joe did dump Taylor Swift over the phone and according to Taylor it was something like a 27-second phone call, guess she timed it.

The pair, who first met on the set of Camp Rock back in 2007 and went public with their relationship in March. They say they will still tour together starting July 27 in Dallas.

Too bad but perhaps they will get back together someday, who knows. Did you like Joe and Demi as a couple? Who’s next for Joe? Do you see anything between Joe and Chelsea Staub?
