First up is...
Chris Brown! Rachel's future husband [unless Kevvers decides to buck up and get that diamond necklace]!
[from Wikipedia] Christopher Maurice "Chris" Brown (born May 5, 1989) is an American hip hop, pop and R&B singer-songwriter, dancer, music video director and actor.

The third single, "With You", has reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and has entered into the top ten in several countries across the world, becoming one of his most successful worldwide releases to date. The second single, "Kiss Kiss", was nominated for the 50th Annual Grammy Awards in the category for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration.
He has some pretty good music and slick dance moves. ;) Do check out his videos!

The lead singer of Maroon 5, Adam Levine! [from Wikipedia] Adam Noah Levine (born March 18, 1979) is an American singer. Currently, he is the lead singer and guitarist for the pop group Maroon 5.

I love Maroon 5's music even if they could be dubbed mainstream.=P
Who's next?
Someone you definitely cannot forget when you're talking about American music! ^_^ Justin Timberlake! [from Wikipedia] Justin Randall Timberlake (born January 31, 1981) is an American pop singer-songwriter, record producer, dancer and actor. Justin has won six Grammy Awards as well as an Emmy Award.
Justin Timberlake came to fame as one of the lead singers of pop boy band 'N Sync, whose launch was financed by con man Lou Pearlman. In 2002, he released his debut solo album, Justified, which sold more than 7 million copies worldwide. Timberlake's second solo release, FutureSex/LoveSounds, was released in 2006 with the U.S. number-one hit singles "SexyBack", "My Love", and "What Goes Around... Comes Around". The album also spawned three additional U.S. top twenty hits ("Summer Love", "LoveStoned", and "Until the End of Time") making it the first time a male artist has achieved six top twenty hits from one album since Michael Jackson did so from 1991–1992, with his album Dangerous.
