Kevin and Joe Jonas at the 2012 'Rock The Vote' pre-Grammy event in L.A.

While their brother Nick Jonas is busy in NYC looking dapper (and starring in Broadway's "How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying"), Kevin and Joe Jonas are holding down the handsome front on the West Coast. Last night they were snapped walking the red carpet at the 2012 "Rock The Vote" pre-Grammy event in Los Angeles, and not even that weird face that Joe's making can take away the hot. That's really hard to do.

Real quick, we just need to say that marriage looks REAL good on Kevin Jonas. That fresh hair, those classy shoes and his all-denim-everything outfit are WORKING for him. In most parts of the world, a denim shirt paired with denim pants are called a Canadian tuxedo, because everyone in Canada wears this outfit (I think -- I've never been there). But Kevin is proving the ol' tuxedo can actually look fly. Now, if he does the same thing with a housecoat (America's most stylish ensemble), then someone needs to give this dude an award.

It's easy to swoon over Kevin Jonas. He's pretty much the whole package: killer smile, a lovable family (duh!) and guitar skills that don't hurt him, either. But Kev isn't just a heartthrob --he's also got a heart of gold! He recently attended the unveiling of the new AOL media room for the Ronald McDonald House Charity in New York City to help commemorate October's National Children's Health Month.

The "Paranoid" singer was photographed in the newly renovated space wearing a casual plaid shirt and giving a cool guy thumbs-up. (OK, we're kidding -- there's kind of no cool way to do a thumbs-up.) But we're pretty sure that gesture should be pointed right back at him. A guy that spends his evening showing young cancer patients how to play on computers deserves major props.

We just want to know how that event could handle so much adorbz in one place. All those cute kids AND Kevin Jonas in one room? Woulda loved an invite to this one, guys!

Winston is one lucky dog. The adorable bulldog got to talk a walk with his adorable pop, Joe, and his uncle Kevin (two-thirds of The Jonas Brothers) in Los Angeles. The handsome trio were spotted getting some sun, dressed -- as usual -- in otherwise-casual clothes that the boys manage to fill out quite well. Joe even showed off his support of the New York Giants with a hat that would make Eli Manning proud.

Of course, the real star among these three is Winston, whose underbite and spotted coat give him the upper hand (or is it the upper paw?) when it comes to Jonas We Want To Hug The Most. Sure, Kevin is the cute one and Joe is the hot one (although that's not to say Nick Jonas isn't an effing dreamboat, because have you seen him?), but Winston? He's the huggable one! That sweet face? Those big paws? The saucer-shaped puppy eyes? Yeah, needless to say, we're basically weeping furballs over here.

Joe, if you ever need a dog walker, WE'RE AVAILABLE.

The Jonas Brothers are actually aging rather gracefully. It doesn't happen to a lot of child superstars, whether they work on screen or in the recording studio, but Kevin, Nick and Joe seem to be the exception that proves the rule. If anything, they've become more and more themselves as the years have gone on, shrugging off the Disney pop star exterior to reveal a trio of pretty normal young guys who lead anything but normal lives.

Buzzworthy's Best of the Jonas Brothers photo gallery charts that transformation. From their early days as irrepressible teen stars to the current, young men with lots on their professional and personal plates.

One thing you'll see a lot of in the gallery is many hairstyles: In the above shot with fellow Disney star Miley Cyrus, Joe seems to be rocking some kind of proto-Justin Bieber mop top. And check out Kevin's brief dalliance with spikes below.

You'll also see Nick's "Tom Petty in 'Running Down A Dream' " phase, where we find the youngest Jonas rocking a top hat!

LOL at 2007. So far away, yet so close. You're definitely going to want to check out the entire gallery for the hairstyles, head wear and nostalgia or years only recently gone by.
