Adam Levine must be over being the “Sexiest Man Alive,” because this weekend, he went and did this:

Yes, the first Jewish man ever to win People’s annual award has bleached his hair an N’Sync shade of blonde.

The photo, which shows Levine posing with fiancee and Victoria’s Secret Model Behati Prinsloo, was posted to the Maroon 5 frontman’s Instagram with the caption: “Apocalypse prep course complete.”

Is it permanent? Is it for a special 90s edition of “The Voice”? Is Adam Levine going to play Aaron Carter in an upcomng biopic?

No answers yet, but one thing’s for sure: Jewish girls everywhere are weeping.
