Adam Levine delivers his best dose of sexy in the September Issue of OUT magazine. The Maroon 5 frontman speaks candidly about sexuality, being naked and growing up with a gay brother.
“I just love being as naked as possible all the time, it feels really natural to me," the 32-year-old singer shares with OUT, adding that he's "extremely comfortable" with his sexuality.
"I can think, 'Oh, that’s a good-looking dude.' Acknowledging that someone’s attractive and wanting to f*** a dude are two different things," Adam says.
He also talks about having respect when it comes to sex.
"With a lot of guys who are hypersexual, it comes from some sort of disdain or dislike — they’re guys who love getting laid but don’t really respect women," Adam says. "That doesn’t mean that I haven’t been totally promiscuous and slutty in my lifetime, because I have.”
Levine grew up in a liberal LA home, and had a brother who came out at a young age, which helped refine his open beliefs on sexuality.
“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," he says. "We all really wanted to provide some cushion for him and constantly let him know that it’s OK.”
