30 Seconds To Mars frontman talks groupies

30 Seconds To Mars frontman Jared Leto has revealed that he didn't become a rock star to get girls.

"People are more likely to come up with artwork or poems or they've made something like a beaded bracelet rather than... the other thing," he told www.showbizspy.com.

"The other thing can also be a beautiful gift, but the music hasn't been a through way to that. And fortunately that hasn't been an area that's been lacking."

Hardly surprising he's not awash with groupies most their fans are odd to say the least

it may also be cos none of his fans are old enough and he does'nt want a lawsuit.

there's a measure of respect between them and the #echelon, you wouldn't throw yourself at a friend would you?

hahahaha Didnt become a rock star to get girls.

Last time i looked this guy was a front man for some shitty emo band hardly a rock star.

Or have things changed in the last day or so?

If you look like that theres no need to become a rock star to get girls. You all are so bitter. Must be ugly

lollll.. 30 seconds to mars aren't emo.

Probably just as well considering the freaks that were in the closer to the edge video. 30stm fans are just weirdos clearly, stupid gifts. The other point is you cant classify Jared as a rock star, just the actor turned musician card.

how can you say thier an emo band, im a fan of the band and have been for a long time and im not an emo or a freak. but i have to say i wouldnt class them as rock either.

The reason he doesn't get sex is because all of their fans are 11 years old.

Well I am 21 years old and have been a fan of this band since the start. The entire group is amazing and my favorite band.. I course love jared leto as well. I mean he is so talented and beautiful, I wish I had the chance to get with him.

HAHAHAHAHHA at least he's doing something with his life, you have nothing better to do than talk about someone and their fans in a harsh way? you're cool.

There's always one that has to bring up the fact that he's a singer AND an actor. It is possible to do both, you know. He obviously has a fuck load more talent than you'll ever have. He's out there, playing in front of thousands of people every night and you're sitting on your ass at home shit talking about him on the internet. It's pathetic, and the fellow 30 Seconds to Mars fans and I laugh at your feeble attempts to make 30STM sound shit and worthless. The 30 Seconds to Mars fans are some of the most intelligent, caring, understanding people I have ever met, and they are sure as hell NOT freaks. The people you saw in the "Closer to the Edge" video are people who have a genuine passion and love for music. There is NOTHING wrong with them.

pardon, im 31 years old and a fan since the beginning, Im a jared fan since he was an actor. And I know a lot of people who are even older than me!

I'm fourteen and I really just don't get the appeal of 30 Seconds To Mars. However, I like the fact that the fans care about the music more than sexual attraction; it annoys me when bands I like and their sheer talent for music are overshadowed by physical attraction from women older yet less sensible and apparently more desperate than me. (:

Ive adored 30 seconds to mars for ages, i love their music. i think its unfair to label us freaks,emo or not we are just people who like the music. just like anyone else, how are we different just becuase we like this particular band? . if you dont like them, then thats fine, no one is forcing you to, but we DO like them and theres no need to slag us off for it. its our choice in music not yours. Yehh i can see why some people dont like Jared, kus he speaks his mind and he can be arrogant but thats him, he doesnt hide himself i respect him for that, its one of the thing i love about him, heck i think the whole band is incredible, but thats my opinion. peace.

the only one in the band who seems a little less up his own arse than the other two is the guy with the beard (i dont know his name) i mean when ever you see them doing interviews they always keep there fucking ray bans on and can never laugh at themselves and the funny thing is here is that none ov them are even talented musicians whenever u here them live it all ways sounds like one big mess.
o and what happened to the 4th member?

I would do you.

...am I the only sane 14 year old who's a MARS fan who isn't bothered about this?

And no, most 30STM fans aren't weird. Sure, there are fangirls, but they're the weird ones. The dedcated ones are completely different. :/

Also, 30STM are NOT emo.

People i just think he was being modest about calling it "the other thing" and why get your knickers in a twist about it all anyway, and i am 37 and liking the band from the start and probably a bit weird but you have to be when your a good a hairdresser as me.....if you take a photo it doesnt mean its crap if no one likes it, so long as its what you have done and achieved and you like it thats all that counts so if 30stm are not your cup of tea then that doesnt give you the right to slate them, go listen to metallica or dot dot curve or the blackout.....or jls. lol

Yeeeh....I doubt he said that at all. I dont think anyone would go blabbing to a cheap website about this crap really =/. I dont understand why people are getting soo worked up about this because EVERY BAND out there has fangirls/groupies, doesn't actaully effect you if they have sex with them or not. It doesn't matter, get angry if you want but it doesn't change the music :P.

Hey guys. It’s all about the music, that’s all that counts, but this shows, you either love em or hate em either way you can’t ignore them!!!

That said, I’d do him!! xx

Posted by Sxoxox | October 13, 2010 9:55 AM | Reply to this

Jeez!!! How about not commenting on news articles if you're not into the band?!?

It's a good thing that he's not in music for the groupies,Most of them just want to shag a band member then get famous cos they shagged whoever.
The Echelon is a family,not a bunch of braindeaqd groupies.

And whoever said that most of 30STM's fans are under the age of 16 is sadly mistaken.I'm 22 and loved the band since I was 14.I got both my mom and my stepdad into them.And a lot of my friends are older than me and they love the band too

30STM fand respect the band and their music,it has nothing to do with how 'hot' a certain band member is

right, i get that most of you guys dont like 30 seconds to mars. They may be my favourite band so im biased,
BUT FOR GOODNESS SAKE IF YOU DONT LIKE A BAND CAN YOU NOT BE SO PATHETIC AS TO JUST POST ALOT OF CRAP ABOUT THEM ON THE COMMNETS BIT!!!!?????
noone makes you look at the article
so instead of criticising another persons life.. GET YOUR OWN
that is all
thank you xx
ps sorry for spelling mistakes

im 16 and im a dude.. so i have no sexual attraction to Jared. but i love the band and have done since i was very young. the Echelon is a family that you haters arnt part of so keep out. if you dont like 30stm you dont have to talk about them.. and why the hell are you reading this in the first place? Jared and Tomo and Shan ofc are all very talented and nice guys (and yes i have met them) you just keep posting comments and us echelon will just keep laughing in your face :) and p.s most of the fans are older than me so. the guys work so hard for us and we love them so :D

rant over :) x
