After his cheating rumors started circulating on social media on Monday, September 19, 2022, the lead singer and guitarist of the pop rock band Maroon 5 came under public scrutiny and heavy criticism.
Many people slammed the 43-year-old Girls Like You singer for cheating on his pregnant supermodel wife of eight years and sending inappropriately flirtatious messages to young women on social media.
So far, Levine has been accused of sending flirty messages to five models on Instagram, among which one even claimed she had a year-long affair with him.
“Essentially, I was having an affair with a man who is married to a Victoria’s Secret supermodel…. At the time, I was young and naive. And I mean, quite frankly, I feel exploited. I wasn’t in the scene like I am now, so I was definitely easily manipulated,” 23-year-old Sumner Stroh revealed on Monday.
Later two more models, Maryka and Alyson Rose, opened up about their interaction with the singer on Instagram and claimed that he flirted with them too.
“Dude aren’t you married? “One of them asked Levine, to which he responded, “Yeah, I’m married, but it’s not so easy.“
Amid all the flirting and cheating allegations, another model and fitness enthusiast, Ashley Russell, came forward and shared her experience of receiving frisky messages from the Payphone singer.
“He often replied to photos of me working out, particularly those showing off my toned legs and glutes, but would then almost immediately delete the messages after I had read them,” she told Daily Mail.
“I am a random girl in college, she said. And he is The Adam Levine…. I was like whoa man for real? He is messaging me? I was excited at first but when he started sending the flirty messages, it got weird and I told him that he should stop right away because he could get caught.”
Following these revelations, hundreds of internet people called out Levine for his dirty actions and infidelity.
Several celebrities also criticized Adam, including Hillary Duff’s husband, Matthew Koma.
Matthew, who’s a well-known singer, songwriter, DJ, and record producer, took to his Instagram and shared a hilarious response on the matter.
“Koma, 35, posted a screenshot of a DM Levine allegedly sent to one of the ladies, which read, “Holy f–k. Holy f–king f–k. That body of yours is absurd.”
“The music producer Photoshopped the image, superimposing a thirst trap of himself to make it look like the Maroon 5 frontman was responding to him.” – Page Six.
Another flirty message from Adam has been turned into a meme by social media users, and people can’t stop sharing their responses using it.
“It is truly unreal how f–king hot you are. Like it blows my mind,” Levine wrote in one of his DMs.
“Us trying to eat challah that just came out of the oven,” A Jewish feminist publication joked on Instagram.
“Goldilocks trying her first bowl of porridge,” someone wrote on Twitter.
“Me after burning the roof of my mouth on a slice of Pizza,” another person tweeted.
“If Adam Levine was my husband right now, he’d be standing at a pay phone trying to call home,” commented another.
