Maroon 5 front man and The Voice judge Adam Levine was the unfortunate target of a sugar bomb outside the Jimmy Kimmel Live studios in Hollywood, L.A. Wednesday night.
According to eyewitnesses, Levine and his band mates were leaving the studio when someone in the crowd hurled powdered sugar at him, coating his face and jacket, reports CNN.
“It looked like he wanted to fight the guy,” said Laura Tijerina, who was waiting for an autograph. “I think this guy had it planned. It was a brown bag with tape around it, which was weird. I just saw powder everywhere. It was just so quick.”
Levine, whose band has a song named Sugar, wasn’t hurt. The suspect, however, was reportedly tackled by security guards and arrested.
