Adam Levine 

As Adam Levine continues to make more music with his band, Maroon 5, and as a judge on NBC's The Voice, his popularity seems to continuously grow. With Grammy Award winning music, a great sense of humor and stunningly good looks its hard not to love this man. Here are some facts that you may not know about the gifted singer, songwriter and actor.

His musical career first started out as a part of the group called Kara's Flowers in 1994 of which he co-founded. The band only managed to release one album, The Fourth World (1997) which didn't do as well as they initially thought. It wasn't until 2001 when the band met with guitarist James Valentine that they started a new musical chapter of their lives under the band name Maroon 5. Their first album as Maroon 5, Songs About Jane was released June 25, 2002 where it sold millions of copies all over the world.

Not only does he sing, he acts!

In 2012, Adam made his acting debut as a character in the hit television series, American Horror Story: Asylum. A year after, he appeared in the film Begin Again (2013) where he co-starred alongside Keira Knightly and Mark Ruffalo. Adam played the gifted singer who, alongside his partner/girlfriend Keira Knightly, created music together. The film featured the song "Lost Stars," which Adam sang when it was performed live on the season finale of The Voice's seventh season. Adam's teams have won three times while Blake's teams have won five times.

Founded 222 Records

In February of 2012 he founded 222 Records where he has signed artists such as Matthew Morrison, Diego Boneta and Tony Lucca. Maroon 5 recorded their first demo at Hollywood's Room 222 Studio and since then he considers 222 his lucky number. He has also commemorated his lucky number as a tattoo. You'll have to look very carefully to spot this one as he is known to be covered in tattoos.

Brings a Yoga Instructor on Tour

Being on tour for so long, you begin to wonder how he stays so fit and calm. He happens to be very into yoga, so much so that he brings a yoga instructor with him on tour. He switched over from lifting weights to yoga in 2005.

"I was skeptical, to say the least. I was wary of the cliche's associated with yoga: spirituality used as a marketing tool or Eastern philosophy sold at Starbucks to disenchanted lawyers and accountants looking for meaning. What I soon realized is that yoga welcomes everyone-that's extremely appealing."–Adam Levine

Johnny Rockets Waiter

Honestly I would have never have seen this guy waiting tables in a Johnny Rockets restaurant. But apparently he was a waiter for just a brief amount of time as he was horrible at taking orders and was fired in the span on three hours. Thankfully the musician gig saved him from being unemployed.

I have been a devoted fan of his since I heard "This Love" debut on the radio and have followed his every move since that day. Being a Maroon 5 S.I.N club member and seeing him in concert three times has definitely deepened my love for him. Adam Levine and Maroon 5 will be coming out with their sixth album in November and I can't wait to hear more amazing music from them.

The Red Pill Blues tour tickets will also go on sale November 4, 2017 so secure those tickets fast!
