American singer Adam Levine is primarily known to the public as the lead singer and guitarist of the group Maroon 5. However, his hobbies are not limited to music. This versatile man is an actor, created a line of perfumes, collects rare cars, and participated in the creation of guitar designs.
In 2013, the musician was awarded the title of Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine. The opposite sex was always interested in Adam, so Adam Levine's girls were all a perfect match. This article will talk about the career, personal life, children of Adam Levine and the hobbies of this amazing person.
Childhood
In 1979, lawyer Patsy Noah and sports coach Fred Levin became parents for the second time. The family already had an eldest son, Michael, and the second boy was named Adam. The musician’s parents are Jewish by nationality, which means that Adam’s religion is Judaism.
Little Adam Levine
The father instilled in his sons a love of basketball already in childhood. Already at the age of seven, Adam participated in the game at local YMCA competitions. In the last seconds of the game, the boy scored the decisive ball, saving his team from defeat.
The musician recalled this moment in one of his interviews and called it one of the main reasons for his self-confidence in life.
Soon his parents divorced, but Adam did not lose confidence even at such an unpleasant moment. The boy's mother was very worried and sent her son to a course of psychotherapy. Adam himself believed that this was simply a pointless waste of money and time, but for the sake of his mother’s peace of mind, he attended all the sessions. Adam maintained a warm relationship with his parents, he spent the whole week with his mother, and on weekends he came to his father.
Youth
Patsy and Fred soon started new families. Thanks to the new relationship between their parents, the Levin brothers now have sisters and a brother. The older sister Julia is the daughter of the second husband of the singer’s mother. And the younger sister Lisa and brother Sam appeared in the second marriage of the boys’ father.
Youth
The boy's first educational institution was the Brentwood private school in Los Angeles. It was quite easy for Adam to learn. There he met friends Mickey Madden, Ryan Dusik and Jesse Carmichael. All the guys were fond of music and attended all kinds of music festivals together.
The music teacher recognized a talented musician in Adam, because the guy has phenomenal abilities - the range of his voice is 4 octaves.
In this regard, the guys decided to create a musical group and called it Karas Flowers. The guys explained the name of the group by their joint sympathy for a girl named Kara.

After short rehearsals, the aspiring musicians began performing at private parties in clubs. The audience really liked the guys' repertoire. The group earned their first money and also signed a contract with Reprise Records. At the studio, the guys recorded their first disc, “The Fourth World,” but it did not bring great success.
To attract the attention of the public, the group took part in the filming of one of the episodes of the Beverly Hills series, but this also did not produce any results. Ultimately, the contract with the studio was terminated.
After such an unfortunate situation, Levin and Carmichael decided to change their place of residence. To continue their studies, the young people went to New York, where they entered the prestigious Five Towns College. The remaining members of the group chose to remain in Los Angeles.

Around 1995, Adam formed Kara's Flowers with his high school friends Jesse Carmichael, Ryan Dusik and Mickey Madden. According to them, the group was named after the girl with whom all four of them were in love. Signing to Reprise Records in 1997, they released the album The Fourth World. But the album was not popular. The group also managed to appear as a special guest in the 3rd episode of the 8th season of Beverly Hills 90210 (the episode was called “Forgive and Forget”). Reprise Records terminated the contract with the young group. After that, Adam and Jesse went to study at Five Towns College, where they studied for 6 semesters. Ryan and Mickey remained in Los Angeles.
Maroon 5
After graduating from college, Adam and Jesse went to Los Angeles to visit their friends. It was decided to repeat the attempt to create our own group. The guys were joined by guitarist James Valentine. The new team was named “Maroon 5”.

Levin composed a number of compositions dedicated to his relationship with his former lover Jane Herman. The group's first album was released in 2002 under the A&M / Octone Records label and was called Songs about Jane. This album brought the guys unprecedented fame; compositions from this record took one of the first places in various ratings.
In 2005, Maroon 5 received a Grammy Award for Best Young Artist, and in 2006, the guys were given a second award, this time for Best Duo or Group Artist for the song “This Love.”
Guys at the Grammy Awards
The next album, “It Wont Be Soon Before Long,” was released in 2007. One of the most memorable songs on the album is “Makes Me Wonder”, the composition confidently settled at the top of various charts, and the music video for this song went down in history, as it rose to 1st place on the Billboard charts. For this composition the guys received their third Grammy.
In 2020, the group already had 6 studio albums, each of which was loved in its own way by fans of the guys’ work. In 2020, the latest video for the song “Memories” was released.
In the fall of 2020, James Valentine stated the following:
“This foreshadows the new album that we are currently working on in the studio. Well yes, we are working on a new album."
In 2020, “The 2020 Tour” was planned in support of the new album.

The leader of the American pop rock band Maroon 5, Adam Levine, was named the sexiest man of the year by People magazine. In an interview with the publication, the 34-year-old musician admitted that he did not even dream of receiving such a title: “As a musician, you fantasize that you will receive a Grammy, but I didn’t even think about such a title. I was stunned and amazed, I even thought it was a joke. But it’s not a joke, and that’s cool.”
Adam Levine is primarily known for being the leader of the popular group Maroon 5, for his roles in films and television series, and for his collaborations with popular Western musicians.
In a lengthy interview Levine gave to the magazine, he said that he loves to walk around naked and sometimes cries at sentimental films (one of which is Steven Spielberg's E.T.). The musician also spoke about his relationship with his current girlfriend, Namibian model Behati Prinsloo. According to him, since the beginning of his affair with Prinsloo, he began to look at marriage differently (the couple began dating in 2012, then separated, and announced their engagement in the summer of 2013).
“I thought for a long time that marriage was not for me. But when the time came, I was ready. Everything is simple,” the Rossiya 24 TV channel quotes the musician.
Levin also shared the secret of how he manages to keep his body in shape. Indeed, largely thanks to this, the musician received such a high-profile status. According to Levin, he does yoga - it trains endurance. The musician noted that being resilient is important - especially at a time when your success is growing rapidly. “It's an interesting time when everything seems to be moving in one particular direction,” he said. “But I don’t take this success for granted.”
In addition to Levin, the list of the sexiest men according to People (the names of those placed after the leader of the list are traditionally placed by the magazine in random order and do not have the nature of a hit parade) also included David Beckham, Justin Theroux, Chris Pine, Justin Timberlake, Bruno Mars, Idris Elba and others.
The full list, as well as the full interview with Adam Levine, can be seen in the November 22 issue of People magazine.
The ranking of male sexuality has been compiled by the magazine since 1985. In 2012, this title went to actor Channing Tatum. Previous holders of the title were actors Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon and others.
Adam Levine was born in 1979 in Los Angeles. Studied at Five Towns College. He founded the band Maroon 5 with school friends in 2001. The team is a three-time Grammy Award winner. Levin is known for his expressive character and swears a lot. In 2011, Levin accused the MTV channel of unprofessionalism, since, according to the musician, it only promotes reality shows, and only remembers music during music awards. Levin is a vegetarian. Met with tennis player Maria Sharapova.

Musician tattoos
You can see many tattoos on Adam Levine’s body, and each image has a special meaning for the man and in one way or another reflects important events in his life.
On the inside of the forearm of the left hand you can see the number 222. This was the name of the studio where the group's first album was recorded. Adam himself believes that this combination of numbers brings him luck.
The outer side of the forearm of the same hand is decorated with a guitar, as a symbol of Adam’s passion for music.
Many musician tattoos
On the inside of the shoulder of the left arm is the Roman numeral 10 - X. This tattoo is dedicated to the tenth anniversary of the group Maroon 5. The outside of the shoulder is decorated with a tattoo in the form of a dove among flowers. Adam Levine's beautiful tattoo is dedicated to the sad events of September 11, 2001.
Under Adam's chest there is a graphic eagle with the laconic inscription Noah Levine. In this way, the musician emphasized that his nationality is Jewish.
Under the left collarbone is the inscription “meditation” in Indian Sanskrit. The tattoo appeared after 2006, when Adam suffered a chest fracture. While in the hospital, his main hobby became meditation.
On the outside of his right shoulder is the name of Adam's hometown, Los Angeles.
On the outside of the right hand, on the bend of the elbow, there is a tiger. This is the musician's favorite animal.
The forearm of the right hand is decorated with a laconic tattoo in the shape of a heart, inside of which is written “Mom”. This is a symbol of a warm relationship with the singer’s mother.
The bicep of the right arm is decorated with the inscription “you're so cool”, which is repeated several times. This is a symbol of love for the wife and mother of the musician’s children, Behati Prinsloo. It is noteworthy that Behati got the same tattoo for herself.
The empty spaces on both arms are filled with various patterns that harmoniously combine with the main tattoos.
Adam's latest tattoo
The singer's right side is decorated with a shark. According to Adam himself, this is the only creature that causes him a feeling of fear.
On Levin's right shoulder blade is an image of a dog's paw print with the inscription "Frankie Girl". This tattoo was made in memory of the man’s pet, the golden retriever Frankie.
A girl is depicted on the left shoulder blade as a symbol of Adam’s respect for the fair half of humanity.
A tattoo around the neck in the form of a simple chain does not carry any meaning. Adam claims that he made it just for fun while touring Japan.
The last tattoo, and perhaps the largest, appeared on Adam’s back thanks to tattoo artist Brian Randolph. This is a mermaid on the waves, in whose hands lies a skull, and birds fly around.
