West eclipses Levine's fashion moment

Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine can't bring himself to wear an expensive jacket he recently purchased, because he saw rapper Kanye West donning the same one just days after he bought it.

While Levine and West are pals - and have collaborated on the rapper's new track Heard 'Em Say - the rocker admits he was far from thrilled when he realised his fashion investment was instantly rendered obsolete.

He says: "I bought this jacket he had by mistake. It's just in my closet, and I can't wear it. It's a white YSL beautiful corduroy blazer.

"He wore that s**t to the American Music Awards, and I was like, 'Damn it!'"
