Adam Levine is the lead singer for Maroon 5 and he loves that fact that people think he could be gay. I'm thinking by the looks of his body, he's not the only one. He believes people shouldn't hide that they are gay to get a recording contract any more. He's making the jab at 'American Idol' and thinks his show 'The Voice' eliminates prejudice. Adam's younger brother is gay and he says it helped him gain a better perspective.
There’s no way to hide my straightness but if people didn’t think there was a small chance I was gay, then I wouldn’t be doing my job very well. Look at the best ones, guys whose sexuality was always questioned. Bowie. Jagger. Freddie Mercury. I wouldn’t be the front man of a band if that question hadn’t come up at some point. What’s always pissed me off about Idol is wanting to mask that, for that to go unspoken. C’mon. You can’t be publicly gay? At this point? On a singing competition? Give me a break. You can’t hide basic components of these people’s lives. The fact that The Voice didn’t have any qualms about being completely open about it is a great thing.
