WATCH: Maroon 5 Crashes LA Weddings to Film Latest Music Video

By Autumn Johnson and Renee Schiavone:

One of the most popular bands in the music industry right now took a unique approach to filming their most recent music video. Instead of a fully scripted performance with ”extras” in the crowd, the musicians decided to pop in on some Southern California couples’ big day, giving them an intimate performance of their latest single “Sugar.”

“It’s Dec. 6, 2014,” the band’s lead singer Adam Levine says at the beginning of the now-complete music video. “We’re going to drive across L.A. and hit every wedding we possibly can. It’s going to be awesome.”

In the video, which was posted to YouTube on Jan. 14 and already has more than 60 million views, the couples and wedding guests seem genuinely surprised as a white curtain drops and Maroon 5 starts singing.

According to a band representative, the surprises were pulled off with some help from the grooms, though.

“Only the grooms knew in each case,” the rep told ET Online. “... They had stages set up for their actual wedding band already. All we did was some simple continuity changes to match each one as best we could.”

Levine, who was voted People’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2013, told that magazine that filming this video was “an out of body experience.”

“I had no idea I would be affected by the overwhelming reactions we received from the couples and guests,” he said in a news release. “Being able to create an unforgettable experience for several people was the highlight of it all.”

“Sugar” is currently number eight on the Billboard Top 100.
