18 year old Frank Sinatra auditioned to be a singer at Adam's great grandfather's bar in New Jersey. The bar was the kind of place where mob bosses would meet to plan their next hits. Young Frank Sinatra was denied the job.
Adam and Actor Channing Tatum worked together at a nightclub in Orlando during college. The nightclub was owned by Backstreet Boys member, Howie. Adam tried to recruit Channing to join a singing group with him, because of Channing's dance skills.
