After the hype was created around Adam's new tattoo, he had to post the truth behind it on Instagram. Sharing that his mother texted him to know if he actually got inked on his face, Adam shared that it wasn't a real tattoo and he would never experiment with his face. 

In the story, he said, "After messages from my mother, I just want to say, I did not have a tattoo on my face." He said that the people close to him know that he loves getting inked but they also know that he is not crazy enough to get a tattoo on his face. He said he would love to get a tattoo anywhere on the rest of his body but getting inked on his face is still a big no. 

However, the revelation came a little too late as the media had already made it a piece of big news without researching properly. Calling media unthoughtful, Twitter started reacting after the revelation was made. One of the users wrote, "@people u put out an article about adam levine’s face tattoo…before u even published it, he had said in his insta story that it wasnt real. Maybe do more research." 

While sharing the actual video which the celebrity shared on his Instagram, a user wrote, "Just so everyone is clear on Adam Levine's "face tattoo"". Another user said, "@glamourmag elizabeth logan’s ‘article’ about adam levine’s face tattoo is already obsolete…he said it's fake. Maybe do actual research before writing an article."
