Adam Levine is so ridiculously heterosexual, he tells gay and lesbian magazine Out, that his very being screams "Straight!" But, it's OK if you think he's gay.

"There's no way to hide my straightness," says the Maroon 5 singer-songwriter, whose latest tune, "Moves Like Mick Jagger," is a duet with Christina Aguilera.

"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."

Story continues below.

Levine says his role on the talent show The Voice has been transformative. "I talk about it in a very heavy way, but it's definitely had a pretty profound impact on my life," he says. "Being in a position where you can help these [contestants] out and - of course I get paid . . . it makes me excited to know I'm part of that."

Tara Reid: Which rich guy did I wed?

Tara Reid, 35, this weekend tied her soul, in a sacred ceremony, to Dutch millionaire Michael Lilleund. Um, er, uh, check that, it was actually multimillionaire Zack Kehayov!

Seems Tara's rep told People the American Pie star had wed Lilleund. Tara corrected the error.

"Just got married in Greece I love being a wife," she tweeted, two hours after tweeting she had become engaged.

Marketing celeb babies

Machete and Dark Angel star Jessica Alba, 30, and hub Cash Warren welcomed baby girl Haven Garner Warren over the weekend. "Healthy and happy! Big sister Honor couldn't be more excited about the new addition to our family," Alba says on her Facebook page.

Meanwhile, Kate Hudson and Muse rocker Matt Bellamy took to Twitter to spread the very first images of their new issue, Bingham Hawn Bellamy, created especially for public consumption.

Be Bella. Marry like Bella. Love like . . .

Consumed by fantasies in which you - not that thesp usurper Kristen Stewart - walk down the isle with fangy-hottie Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson)?
