Adam Levine Opens Up About Having A Gay Brother
Posted on Mon Aug 15, 2011 12:00 PM PDT
Adam Levine is loved by both men and women, and after checking out his sexy, lean and tatted up rocker bod in the new issue of Out, we're not surprised!
The Maroon 5 singer opened up about growing up with a younger gay brother. He tells the mag:
- “I can single-handedly dispel any ideas that sexuality is acquired. Trust me, you’re born with it. My brother is gay, and we knew when he was two. We all knew.”
As for how his family handled it, The Voice star adds:
- “We all really wanted to provide some cushion for him and constantly let him know that it’s OK. A lot of people don’t want their kid to be gay and will fight it at all costs. But I’ve got news for you—it’s a losing f***ing battle. The more you fight it, the more f****d-up your kid’s gonna be. You’ve just gotta embrace it from the beginning. That’s the only way to deal with it as a family. Otherwise, you’re just screwing yourself over, and you’re gonna make your kid miserable.”
Well said, Adam.
More deliciousness.

Gayness is a genderconfused choice of immature people and those of the lower lingdoms.
Gayness is a genderconfused choice of immature people and thoe of the lower kingdoms.
WTF? Is he saying his family encouraged his 2year old brother to be GAY?
This dude looks a little odd himself.
" Learn fisting at home"
Just come on out, Adam. It's o.k.
Schwuler Bruder
Oy. fegele.
A 2 year old doesn't have his/her sexuality established and to say otherwise is uninformed and perverse. Pedophelia, anyone?
Amen to what he said.
OK first you cant tell me a two year old is gay. thats still a baby obviously the parents pushed the kid into it because its not natural.second his tats suck. if you have the kind of money that he has you should have way better ink im broke and mine rock in comparison
Wow... there are some true morons posting here... Scum of the Earth....
1. He said he knew from a young age... he was obviously exaggerating... but the bottom line is, they always knew... it wasn't a decision his brother made just to be different.
2. His tats were there before the fame and money... glad you're broke, but have great tats. Way to spend your money.
3... Thetan... You're an idiot... nuff said.
just like liberalism, homosexuality is a mental disorder.
it should be treated with drugs etc
It reads like he's saying that his brother is f.ck.d up for being gay. True of all gays.
Those pictures of him are totally gay.
Of course parents will always try to fight their kid being gay. No parent would naturally accept it. It has to be forced because it is unnatural.
pleas go to KENIA!!
Woof!
This fella is flat out B-E-A-UTIFUL!!!
Love ya Adam! Thanks for being so awesome and open-minded!
STAY WOOFY, HAWT, AND SEXAY, BUDDY!!!!
