Adam, who is referred to as a “badass” by Blake Shelton in the interview, opens up about why he was seen as a ladies man a few years ago when he went on a dating spree, linked with Lindsay Lohan, Kirsten Dunst, and Paris Hilton. He recently split with Anna Vyalitsyna, his girlfriend of two years. Here’s more:
- On why he joined The Voice: “I’ve always felt a little misrepresented in the world. I felt like people only knew me as a singer who dated pretty girls. A little bit of a bimbo. Maybe I was kind of a bimbo. I was the music dude that was naked all the time with the girls, and that’s fine, no problem with that. But I wanted to create a little balance. When the show came around, I thought, ‘People now know that I have a brain.'”
- On sex: “‘You know what yoga’s good for?’ Adam Levine asks, pausing in mid-thought as he discusses his healthful lifestyle. He draws to his feet, balances in the private jet’s narrow aisle, points at his crotch, and thrusts his pelvis like a porn star. ‘I’ll tell you what yoga is good for: F***ing,’ he chimes, in a singsong falsetto, then laughs.”
- On why he was promiscuous: “There’s two kinds of men. There are men who are f***ing misogynist pigs, and then there are men who just really love women, who think they’re the most amazing people in the world. And that’s me. Maybe the reason I was promiscuous, and wanted to sleep with a lot of them, is that I love them so much.”
- On his feud with Christina:“We butted heads a little in the beginning. I had sympathy for her being the only girl, though, so I laid off. Blake has a charming way of bickering with her, but I can’t pull that off. We’re totally cool now.”
