Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo attend charity event: Here’s what we know
As per People, the 43-year-old took to the stage alongside his band, Maroon 5, at the annual fundraising gala on Saturday, 1 October 2022, in Las Vegas.
Levine’s performance seemed unaffected by the scandal. He hardly addressed the crowd other than introducing his songs and expressing gratitude to O’Neal for the chance to perform.
The performance marked his first public appearance since he was accused of cheating on his pregnant wife and sending flirtatious messages to multiple women on social media.

Rob Gronkowski, Flavor Flav, Camille Kostek, and Logan Paul were amongst the celebrities who attended the event.
O’Neal, who had earlier praised Levine in the midst of the scandal, gave the singer his open support when he spoke at the occasion. The NBA player who was married to Shaunie Henderson explained:
“Adam is a friend of mine from [a long] time ago. I always say to myself, you know, I cannot be a hypocrite.”
O’Neal went on to say:
“Now, I wasn’t the greatest husband in the world, so just because I have a large platform right now doesn’t give me the right to bash other people. He’s great, he’s doing something for the children, he’s always been like that. I’m happy for him. And I wish him luck.”
Prinsloo was spotted backstage supporting her husband. The couple attended the gala just weeks after her husband was exposed for cheating by Sumner Stroh. The model shared a series of screenshots between the two of them.
Levine told Sumner that he would like to name the unborn child after her.
Following Stroh’s confession, more women came forward to post screenshots of the flirty chats Levine had sent to them. The Maroon 5 lead singer later admitted to sending inappropriate messages that “crossed the line” in a statement shared via his Instagram Story.
Despite the sexting scandal, the 34-year-old model seemed in great spirits at the event. This comes after the couple, who already share two daughters Dusty Rose, and Gio Grace was seen boarding a private plane on Tuesday, 27 September 2022.
