Rick Diamond/WireImageWe rarely associate words like "heartbroken" with Adam Levine. In fact, we expect the gorgeous Maroon 5 frontman to be the one doing the heart breaking.
So we immediately assumed the tatted-up bad boy kissed his model girlfriend Anna Vyalitsyna goodbye when we heard the couple split after two years together.
Not so, insist recent reports, which suggest the "She Will Be Loved" singer has a much softer side than we first thought…
"Adam's heartbroken," a Levine pal dished to Us Magazine. The Us source continued, insisting Adam was "blindsided" in L.A. when Anna dumped him from NYC.
Surprised much? We definitely are. 'Cause we totally pegged the "amicable" split as Adam's idea and thought he would be the one to quickly bounce back.
We reached out to Adam's rep for more information and received a perfunctory "No comment" in response.
Hmm, could Adam be hiding a sensitive side behind his rock star exterior? Perhaps we had the wrong idea when it came to this delicious duo:
"It was a cheap shot," a pal insists to Us Magazine of the statement Anna originally released to People confirming the couple's split.
A Levine confidant added, "He wasn't even fully sure they were really broken up."
Aww, we kind of feel bad for The Voice mentor! After all, we do love that douchey-sweet personality on the boob tube. Maybe we were wrong to assume his bad boy persona led to the duo's demise….
Or perhaps Anna ditched the dude before the obvious occurred?
Tough call, and while we aren't fully behind the "heartbroken" theory (seriously, how tough is a rebound when you're friggin' Adam Levine), we do buy the Us Magazine reports suggesting the rock star didn't "pay her [Anna] enough attention" and "Adam wasn't ready to take that step."
"That step" being marriage, of course, and it's no surprise the abtastic star's not ready to settle down—he has a new album coming out soon, a killer career on The Voice (and a new gig on AHS!) and he's currently one of the sexiest heartthrobs in H'Wood.
Which, by simple deduction dolls, means a walk down the aisle is hardly Levine's next move.
Oh well, he's got moves like Jagger to help him jump back into the dating department!
And if not? Fellow naked-loving Jennifer Love Hewitt said she's available.
