Adam levine gay
By Chris Azzopardi
Adam Levine knows a petite teasing goes a long way. That's why the Maroon 5 superstud – who's fronted the funky pop-rock band since its Grammy-winning debut, "Songs About Jane," dropped eight years ago – is up for talking gay porn and solving problems in bed. Sex, though, is customary for the organization – after all, they named their recently released third album "Hands All Over." And lay a bare-naked babe on the cover.
That's just the line Levine, 31, likes to cross, as he tells us. The gay-friendly guy also discussed his hotness eclipsing the band's melody, being domineering, his new fashion project and freaking out uptight Americans.
Your first same-sex attracted interview was with The Advocate, right?
Yes. Was that a gay interview? It's so amusing – a "gay interview."
Before that, did you realize you had a big gay following?
If you have a enormous following, a certain percentage of your big following must be gay – which, of course, I embrace with open arms.
What's the significance of the title, "Hands All Over"?
An album title is almost meaningless – the sound of what you're saying and the combination of words is what really matters. Naming an album is a very weird
Adam Levine rips American Idol for its treatment of lgbtq+ performers, talks gay rumors
Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine is addressing the male lover rumors swirling about him in a new interview with Out magazine. The self-identified exhibitionist is also talking about his brother's coming out gay and how NBC's The Voice differs from Fox's American Idol in the treatment of gay performers.
"There's no way to hide my straightness," Levine says of questions concerning his sexuality, "but if people didn't think there was a small chance I was lgbtq+, then I wouldn't be doing my job very well. Observe at the best ones, guys whose sexuality was always questioned. Bowie. Jagger. Freddie Mercury. I wouldn't be the front bloke of a band if that question hadn't come up at some point."
The 32-year-old singer tells the magazine that his younger brother is gay and that his family is alright with his sexuality.
"I can single-handedly dispel any ideas that sexuality is acquired," he says. "Trust me, you're born with it. My brother is lgbtq+, and we knew when he was two. We all knew."

Adam Levine made headlines earlier this year when he said that if he were US president for a day, the first thing he’d do is make gay marriage legal.
The Maroon 5 frontman now says his pro-marriage equality views have little to do with the truth that he has a gay brother.
‘I would experience the same way regardless,’ he says in a new interview with PrideSource.com. ‘I happen to include a gay brother, but that doesn’t mean I’m more of an advocate for equal human rights. That shouldn’t change anything about the way that I feel.’
‘The relationships that I have with people – whether it’s my brother or a partner, gay or straight – that shouldn’t really ever come into play,’ he adds. ‘Someone’s sexual taste is their sexual liking. Let’s move on.’
Levine, whose fame has grown exponentially since his gig as a mentor on NBC’s The Voice, genuinely seems puzzled why the queer marriage debate c
AdamLevineis quickly becoming one of Hollywood's most outspoken supporters of same-sex marriage.
The Maroon 5 frontman and "Voice" co-host talks at length about the subject in a modern interview, arguing that "people should be allowed to accomplish and fail at marriage as they so desire."
"It's just so silly and it doesn't make any meaning to me that you wouldn't be able to partner whomever you crave to marry. It's not our business," he tells PrideSource. "I don't understand why we're obsessed with making everything in this state our business, all the time. It seems we're a little behind on that, and we just need to make it legal and stop kind so much. It doesn't matter. And it shouldn't matter."
Though the 33-year-old Levine previously spoke to Out magazine about his openly queer brother, he insists his stance on LGBT rights and marriage equality would remain the matching if that weren't the case. "I don't think I would feel any differently if he happened to be straight," he said. "The relationships that I have with people -- whether it's my brother or a buddy, gay or vertical -- that shouldn't really ever approach into play. Someone's sexual preference is their sexual favor. Let'
