ROUND 2: JONAS V. SWIFT

JOE JONAS HAS RESPONDED TO ALL THE THINGS TAYLOR SWIFT HAS SAID ABOUT HIM:

Over the last week or so, TAYLOR SWIFT has been taking shots at her ex-boyfriend JOE JONAS. First, she said he broke up with her via a 27-second phone call. Then she said that the reason they broke up is because Joe started dating actress CAMILLA BELLE behind her back. -

Well, Joe Jonas can be silent no more. He hit up the official JONAS BROTHERS blog yesterday to defend himself . . . and to make sure he wasn't losing any fans. First, he took on the cheating allegations. He said, quote, "I never cheated on a girlfriend. It might make someone feel better to assume or imply I have been unfaithful but it is simply not true. Maybe there were reasons for a breakup. Maybe the heart moved on. Perhaps feelings changed. "I am truly saddened that anything would potentially cause [our fans] to think less of me."

Then he tackled the issue of the phone call . . . quote, "For those who have expressed concern over the '27-second' phone call: I called to discuss feelings with the other person. Those feelings were obviously not well received. "I did not end the conversation. Someone else did. Phone calls can only last as long as the person on the other end of the line is willing to talk. A phone call can be pretty short when someone else ends the call. The only difference in this conversation was that I shared something the other person did not want to hear. There were later attempts at communication that had no response."

Joe finished up his blog with well-wishes for Taylor . . . whom, as you may have noticed, he never mentioned by name. He said, quote, "I wish the best for the other person but could not sit back any longer and leave our fans with a wrong impression of the truth."
