Maroon 5's Adam Levine Tells MTV: "F**k You"

Bitter non-nominee or voice of the people?

Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine won't be attending Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards -- and not just because his band isn't up for any of the show's many moonmen trophies.

"The VMAs [are the] one day a year when MTV pretends to still care about music," The Voice mentor, 32, tweeted Saturday. "I'm drawing a line in the sand. Fuck you, VMAs."

MTV responded minutes later via Twitter, telling the "Moves Like Jagger" singer: "Soooo you'll be tuning in at 9/8C tomorrow right? (BTW, bonus points if you TwitPic your 2004 Moonman!)"

Less than 30 minutes later, Levine -- currently on tour with Train and Gavin DeGraw -- said he has no qualms about making the bold statement on Twitter.

"Still waiting to have my 'Jerry Maguire mission statement moment of deep regret,'" he wrote. "Not happening. Phew!"

I'm not a fan of the man's band but he does have a point.

MTV brings to mind Jackass, Jersey Shore and Teen Moms Not music...

I agree with DGX. Couldn't care less about Adam Levine but he has a point.
