You were probably sad when Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine proposed to Victoria’s Secret model Behati Prinsloo. One of those nonsensical depressions. Like, you probably would never have actually met and married Levine yourself, but you wanted the option. Anyway, there’s a new, more practical way to be close to him: wear his clothes. Levine’s “222” line is doing really, really well at Kmart, the Daily Mail UK reports:

The 34-year-old launched a collection of men’s clothing and accessories for Kmart on October 1, and according to Kmart boss Bernt Ullmann, it’s doing incredibly well.

So well, in fact, that Mr Ullmann thinks the singer is destined for great things in the fashion world. He told WWD: ‘We couldn’t be happier. . . There is nothing on the floor that is not working,’ adding: ‘I think Adam has the ability to be Kmart’s Calvin Klein business.’

That’s right. Kmart’s Calvin Klein. With such high praise you must be wondering: What about the ladies? Glad you asked. Come springtime, you can show off your legs in Levine’s new line for ladies. His wife will even help him get that feminine look right.

The womens’ clothing will undoubtedly be a hit among Mr Levine’s mostly female fanbase, and it will also be helped by Miss Prinsloo, who is expected to ‘have a voice in the development’.

We know. YOU wanted to help Levine design the clothes, but you can’t, remember? Maybe you can help Joseph Gordon-Levitt design his future clothing line. Oh, wait. He’s taken, too. Sigh. I guess we’ll just wear the clothes and move on.

“Adam Levine and his girlfriend Behati Prinsloo are excited to announce they are engaged to be married,” the rep says. “The couple recently reunited and Adam proposed this weekend in Los Angeles.”

Prinsloo isn’t the model girlfriend in this naked photo shoot with the clothing-averse singer, but now the pair has a lifetime to take pictures together in various states of undress. Though feelings about the Jewish pop star are decidedly mixed (see: ‘Adam Levine Continues to Ruin Everything‘), we wish him nothing but the best on his impending nuptials.

Mazel tov, guys. (And if it doesn’t work out, Adam, call us!)

Adam Levine, Jewish rock star and reality TV’s bad boy with a heart of gold (see: The Voice), sat down with The Hollywood Reporter and showed us that deep down he’s just a regular guy trying to make it in the biz. That’s why he did that fragrance line.

The article, which calls Levine “at once charming, cocky, self-deprecating, self-aware, funny and grateful,” also reveals a ton about the Maroon 5 frontman. Your degree in Levineology starts here:

1. His childhood best friend—and longtime manager—is Jonah Hill’s brother, Jordan Feldstein (I KNOW, right).

2. His father, Fred Levine, founded clothing store and online retailer M. Fredric.

3. He knows that before he joined reality singing show The Voice as a judge, “the occasional soccer mom probably thought I was a slut.”

4. According to a polling firm, his “likability” has increased by more than 20 percent since he’s been on the show.

5. He was “a total dickhead” in high school.

6. He watches The Daily Show.

7. He briefly attended Five Towns College on Long Island.

8. His first band, Kara’s Flowers, performed on an episode of Beverly Hills, 90201. At the Peach Pit:

While one could argue that all the digital shorts are Jewish due to the heavy involvement of Andy Samberg and his menschy The Lonely Island crew, to tide you over till next season (or at least for the next 20 minutes) here are the top five Jewish digital short guests. While they may not hold a candle to such famed sketches as “Dick in a Box,” “I’m on a Boat,” or even my personal favorite, “Jack Sparrow,” they’re absurdly entertaining.

5. Some strange stuff happens in this trailer/promo/something for a fictional movie starring Paul Rudd and Andy Samberg (there’s some Titanic-style sketching and lots of fake blood). Even if we don’t love, or understand, this short so much, we always love us some Paul Rudd:

4. Pre-Moneyball Jonah Hill starts dating Andy’s dad. Be prepared for some uncomfortable kissing:

3. Natalie Portman has a cameo in the mashup that makes up the 100th short, an ode to her uncharacteristic rap from 2006:

2. There are so many great lines in this Andy Samberg-Adam Levine love song to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, “Iran so Far:”

1. No need to explain the brilliance of this interview with Jewcy favorite Drake:

Still want more Samberg? Here’s the Harvard graduation speech he gave yesterday.
