Riot police were called to the Lima, Peru hotel where pop sensations The Jonas Brothers are spending the week after more than 1,000 teen fans lined the streets outside awaiting a glimpse of the crooners.


The Jonases are playing two sold-out gigs in the Peruvian capital Tuesday and Wednesday night, with each concert expected to attract a crowd of 60,000.

According to E! Online, officials were forced to block off the streets surrounding Lima’s Marriot Hotel on Sunday when teenagers descended in order to catch a glimpse of the boys.

“We just woke up to the sounds of fans screaming downstairs outside of our hotel. What a great way to start off our new world tour.”

“There are thousands of fans outside the hotel. The police were called in to control the crowd. It is unbelievable to hear the fans in a country we have never visited before. Thank you Peru! Can’t wait to meet everyone,” brothers Kevin, 21, Joe, 19, and 16-year-old Nick wrote in a message on their official website Monday.
