Joe Jonas has been finding interesting ways to keep busy since the cancellation of the Jonas Brothers tour.
Following a visit to an addiction specialist on Thursday, the musician was caught in a private moment with girlfriend Blanda Eggenschwiler on Friday, as the couple was seen sharing a passionate kiss while walking on Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood.
The 24-year-old teen heartthrob and his 29-year-old lady love were photographed in the trendy shopping district sharing an embrace while waiting to cross the street.

The two twentysomethings looked identical in their monochromatic outfits, as they both donned black fitted jackets, dark denim trousers and dark sunglasses. Jonas wore his favorite pair of black Vans while Eggenschwiler favored Doc Martins.
While on their walk, the two lovers grabbed coffee from the local Starbucks and took a break from public affection to check their iPhones.
The two began dating in November after Jonas was introduced to the former model/graphic designer through a mutual friend.

Earlier in the week, after the Jonas Brothers announced they were canceling their new tour due to a 'rift' in the band, Joe was spotted with an addiction specialist.
According to TMZ, the singer was photographed with Mike Bayer, the CEO and founder of Cast Recovery Services.
He has worked with the singer's ex-girlfriend Demi Lovato.

On Thursday the middle brother was photographed walking into a recording studio with the well-known sober companion after a trip to SoHo House.
Joe kept his head down and a black cap pulled down over his eyes as he was trailed by the tall, bearded man.
Mike describes himself as 'well known for quickly responding to crisis situations' on his company website. He has worked with people who have substance abuse and mental health issues.

Mike's online biography stresses that he can help famous people on the go: 'Mike excels in creating individualised care plans and caters to the specialized needs of executives, professionals, celebrities and other clients who require the highest level of personal attention.'
His profile also says he understands 'the personal and confidential needs required to support high profile clients at home or at work in order to minimize disruption to their careers.'
Demi - who dated Joe for several months in 2010 - has worked extensively with Mike, even cooperating on a scholarship program with his company.

In March, Joe denied via his Twitter account the existence of a reported sex tape where he was allegedly doing drugs with Eggenschwiler.
Otherwise the singer has never been linked with anything related to narcotics.
That doesn't mean Joe hasn't had stress in his life. Not only did his band announce on Wednesday that that they were canceling their tour just two days before it was set to begin.
But on Friday, AOL announced they were cutting a chunk of the staff for the brothers' Cambio, a MTV-style website.

The brothers Jo, Kevin, 25, and Nick, 21, were scheduled to begin their 19-date tour Friday in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania.
Their spokesman, Jesse Derris, told People magazine in a surprisingly candid statement: 'There is a deep rift within the band.'
He continued: 'There was a big a disagreement over their music direction.'
The rift is so bad, Jesse revealed they may delay their new album, V, and they may even break up their band completely.
When asked about the future, the rep was not overly optimistic: 'It remains to be seen.'
The album was the band's first since 2009 and is also their first since splitting with Disney's Hollywood Records label.
Both the album, and the tour, was meant to introduce the band's fans to their new, more mature sound.

The representative said fans can get a refund at the point of purchase.
The group tweeted about the tour as recently as Tuesday, posting a picture of a poster for the Pennsylvania stop.
A source close to the tour revealed to MailOnline everyone was 'blindsided'.
The source said: 'They had hidden this well, no one saw it coming.
'The crew were all ready to go with everyone flying in today and Thursday to kick off the tour.
'People were expecting to be working solidly for the next month now they are not.'

In September the performers seemed excited to show the world the new Jonas Brothers.
Showing they were no longer the cookie-cutter Disney band, Nick, Kevin - who has a child on the way - and Joe sat down with gay and lesbian magazine Out.
Tellingly Kevin revealed the brothers had taken a break due to some tensions between them.
The oldest Jonas said: 'For seven years, it was nonstop. We had moments where we got frustrated with one another and we really just needed time alone.
'You can imagine what it’s like for a band to be together all the time, but imagine if they’re family, too.'
Nick said now was the time to reform - and to do so without their old label, which no longer understood their musical direction.
'I think we realized that, creatively, we were in very different places.'
Joe agreed: 'We were in that place where we were starting to think about being able to make our grown-up record. We didn’t want to talk about if they would put a parental advisory label on it.'
The New Jersey trio first shot to fame in 2005 and quickly became Disney mega stars appearing on Miley Cyrus' Hannah Montana and also got their own show title, of course, Jonas.
