Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown shows off some swagger in shades while throwing the camera a kiss, and Ellen DeGeneres is surprisingly subdued as she ends up the last woman in the mix before Levine slides back into frame, suddenly all alone on the stage. As the camera continues to twirl, Girls Trip breakout star Tiffany Haddish comes into frame, along with activist Angy Rivera and Well, That Escalated Quickly author Franchesca Ramsey. The parade rolls on with too-cool comedian Sarah Silverman in a leather jacket, followed by Wonder Woman herself, Gal Gadot, and then a power trio featuring Youtube comedian Lily Singh, tech entrepreneur Amani Al-Khatahtbeh and Transparent actress Trace Lysette. The list is impressive and super-eclectic.Īfter an initial push-in shot of Levine’s face, we find Camila Cabello mouthing the words and dancing in place to the mid-tempo pop tune, only to find her replaced by comedian/actress Phoebe Robinson from 2 Dope Queens and then Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman, who clasps hands with the bandleader and shares a smile.

Only every time the lens swings around the singer in the brand-new video for “Girls Like You,” another famous, accomplished woman pops up dancing behind Adam. I can’t even believe it.The concept is deceptively simple: Maroon 5 on a dramatically lit but kind of plain gray stage and a camera circling around frontman Adam Levine. He added: “It’s so crazy that she passed away. Life goes on and obviously, we never crossed paths again. “The video wound up becoming this classic video that everyone loves. “It was one of those isolated, beautiful experiences,” the singer said. Nowadays, the video is among the band’s most memorable. I go into kiss her and she’s like, ‘Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Oh cowboy. I wouldn’t say I jammed my tongue down her throat but I would say I gave her a real French kiss,” he said.

“Right as we do it, I just kiss her, kiss her. Without much filming experience under his belt, Levine said he dove in for a passionate kiss, leaving the actress surprised. “I remember I was nervous because not only had I not kissed a person I didn’t know before that was definitely older than me and who I definitely for sure 100 percent even remember specifically doing s–t to back in the day … Now I’m in the f–king room with this person and I can’t believe it.”ĭespite feeling on edge, the musician said Preston “made feel comfortable.” “When we sat there and I first met her, she was super cool,” he remembered. Preston wasn’t the only actress to be considered for the role, however, as Levine revealed that Diane Lane was among his “top two” picks for the character. “I fall in love with the mom,” recounted the Maroon 5 frontman, per E! News, comparing the video to the film “The Graduate,” which follows a similar plot. Preston played the mother, who was stuck in an abusive relationship with her husband.

The actress died in July at the age of 57 after a two-year battle with breast cancer.Īmong her many roles was an appearance in the music video for Maroon 5’s “She Will Be Loved.”ĭuring a recent interview on “The Howard Stern Show,” Levine, 41, reflected on filming with the “Jerry Maguire” star, in which he played a man that lusts for the mother of his young girlfriend. Adam Levine is looking back fondly on his brief time working with the late Kelly Preston.
