Adam Levine’s Christmas Shopping
Posted in Adam Levine, Fashion, LOVE, Maroon 5, Rock, Rumor on the December 27, 2007
Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine and his girlfriend Rebecca Ginos were spotted spending some major dough on some last minute holiday shopping in Beverly Hills last Saturday. The 28-year old Adam and the 21-year old cocktail waitress from Teddy’s Rebecca spent that afternoon picking up some designer duds at Yves Saint Laurent and Prada and were seen waiting for the valet to bring his Mercedes out front.
If you haven’t heard of how the couple met, Adam shared it on the Howard Stern Show earlier this year. They apparently met on Rebecca’s 21st birthday and boy was she given a birthday gift. Adam gladly admitted that “We had sex the first night we met”. Classy.
Live Nation, Maroon 5 ink for the long run

Live Nation is now in the live Maroon 5 business. And not just for one tour.
Billboard has learned that the promoter has not only cut a deal to produce rock act Maroon 5’s 28-city fall arena tour, but both parties have also committed to a full-blown Live Nation amphitheater tour for summer 2008. Maroon 5 will play at least 60 shows under the Live Nation banner by the end of next year.
The deal follows previous statements by Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino that he wants to extend the life of the relationship between artist and promoter beyond one show or tour.
At a time when the touring industry is focusing on developing more arena-level headliners, many think Maroon 5 might fit the bill.
“They are uniquely poised at this point in their career to be a huge force in the industry for years to come,” said Jason Garner, president of North American music for Live Nation. “This is what everyone has said they would like to see — the promoter taking a step in the direction of helping to grow an artist’s career. We think we’ve come into this partnership at exactly the right time.”
