Don’t expect Adam Levine to be invited down to Georgia for any warm holiday sing-alongs at Honey Boo Boo’s any time soon. Levine, the wildly talented and occasionally cantankerous lead singer of Maroon 5 and celebrity coach on “The Voice,” left nothing to the imagination when asked about TLC’s hit series “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo,” the reality show about Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson and her southern family. “Seriously, Honey Boo Boo is the decay of …More

Rocker Adam Levine has taken to holding up hand made signs in paparazzi photographs. “The Voice” judge told Ellen DeGeneres how he got his inspiration. "It's unnatural and strange to be somewhere inconspicuously and then someone shows up and [snaps away]… So I thought, 'Well, if it's gonna be a strange annoyance and weird and inconvenient, we should at least do something that maybe could turn into something positive.’” The Maroon 5 front man was recently pictured with a cardboard …More

Ever since her resurgence as a judge on NBC’s “The Voice,” Christina Aguilera has been popular. Now, the pop star is set to change things up. Pairing with co-judge Blake Shelton, the singer will record a new country track for her upcoming album. This song will mark the second collaboration between Aguilera and a co-star from “The Voice” as she released the hit “Moves Like Jagger” with Adam Levine and Maroon 5 last year.

Gay marriage and nudity are usually two things that you don’t talk about together in an interview – unless you’re Adam Levine. The Maroon 5 singer started his chat with Pride Source about gay rights, and ended up discussing nudity on “American Horror Story.” Earlier this month, Levine told MTV News that if he was president for a day, the first thing he would do is make gay marriage legal, so it’s made sense for Pride Shock to begin by asking him why he said that. Levine …More

Celebrities are often notorious for experimenting with different drugs, so it came as only mild surprise when Maroon 5 crooner Adam Levine opened up about his experience trying mushrooms. He raved about his experiments with hallucinogenic drugs, calling them “valuable and beneficial” because they made him understand himself better. All right then. He told Q magazine that getting high off of magic mushrooms helped him rediscover a childlike view of the world. We’d like to think he could get the …More

A new Billboard.com poll asked visitors to name the sexiest men and women in music, and the results are in. Britney Spears topped the poll in the female category, and Adam Lambert won out in the male category (he must be happy since he only came in third for the Top 10 Most Fabulous Gay Jewish Personalities). The former American Idol star earned 26 percent of the male vote, beating second place winner Adam Levine with twice as many votes. Fellow Jew Drake only pulled in two percent of the vote, landing him in …More

Just days after claiming he wasn’t just a “bimbo” who “dates pretty girls,” Adam Levine decided to go public with his new pretty girlfriend. He was spotted kissing model Behati Prinsloo in Hawaii earlier this week. Then the couple was seen holding hands last night at Los Angeles’ Mustard Seed Café. In case you've forgotten, Levine split from Victoria’s Secret model Anne Vyalitsyna just two months ago. So he's basically swapped one Angel for another. We just hope …More

Although he was hesitant at first, he knew the TV exposure would give him a chance to change his reputation. He tells Details magazine, …More
