They were posing for them...don't think they would do that if it was some random person they didn't remember inviting :D
 
I feel terrible for posting them and so awful that they're now on JustJared

I've requested that they be removed from this site.

Sorry for causing any offence.

don't worry about it. these things happen in celebland. one of the downside of being a celebrity. i did enjoy the pictures though.
 
Never thought to post this before, but I use Rhapsody for music, and a while ago (like last year), Jared did a playlist for Rhapsody. I don't think it's been posted here before. :unsure: (Sorry if it already has. :blush:) But in case you guys are curious to what his picks were, here they are...:flower:

The King of Leon's Jared Followill shares 10 songs that rock his world. Cut Copy, MGMT and Joy Division are just some of the bands that put the groove in this bassist's step!

(The rest of the following quotes are by Jared, and I'm listing the music as song title, then artist. And if you're wondering about the spelling, grammar mistakes, those are Jared's, not mine. I don't think he proof read what he wrote. :p)

Kim & Jessie - M83
This is a feel good song. Reminds me of a John Hughes film.

Right Hand On My Heart - The Whigs
I love these guys. They have a great sound. The singers voice is classic.

Snow In California - The Stills
This is a great song from a great record from on of my favorite bands. They always put about beautiful melodies.

Man's Needs - The Cribs
One of the most underrated bands in the world. They haven't made a bad record yet. They always impress me.

Bodysnatchers - Radiohead
Great song. Incredible band. Nothing more needs to be said.

One Horse Race - Tom Vek
I love this guy's voice. I've been waiting for him to break out for the past few years.

Lights & Music - Cut Copy
Super catchy dance song. I always DJ this song. Always gets a good response.

Innocent Heathen - Snowden
Snowden is one of my favorite bands in the world. This record is perfect from start to finish.

Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division
Maybe the most influential group of guys for us as a band. I love everything they've done with and without Ian.

So, there you have it, Jared's playlist! Now if only Rhapsody could get the rest of the boys to do a playlist too...:shifty:
 
No I didn't see it on this website it was another one, sorry I should have said that!

He made a movie song playlist too which was really good but I haven't a clue where to find it.

Oh, no worries! ;) Glad it hasn't already been posted here. ^_^

And a movie song playlist? :woot: Well, don't think he made it for Rhapsody, don't see it there anyway, most have been for something else, time for a little Google searching. :lol:
 
Didn't find that movie song playlist by Jared, but did come across one by Matthew, from earlier this year. (And I did a search here, and couldn't find it already posted, but sorry if I somehow missed it. :blush:)

From Playlisted.com :flower:

Kings of Leon guitarist Matthew Followill shares his playlist with us in this exclusive piece…

A Taste: Glasvegas, MGMT, The Stills


Kings of Leon don’t mess around. On their latest album, Only By the Night, these four southern boys churn out straightforward rock n’ roll. With undeniable anthems like “Sex Is On Fire,” they pay homage to the classics, but they venture into new territory through moody and massive sonic textures on the likes of “Use Somebody” and “Closer.” The hypnotic flourishes arise from Matthew Followill’s guitar playing. He doesn’t simply play; he paints aural landscapes, blending bluesy licks with a heightened sensitivity for ambiance.


It’s no surprise that Matthew’s playlist is all over the map. He opened up his iTunes for us in this exclusive feature and gave us a look at what he’s spinning. Check out his playlist below!


Matthew Followill’s Playlist:
1. White LiesTo Lose My Life
“I just downloaded their album, and I really like it.”


2. GlasvegasGlasvegas
“If you haven’t checked out Glasvegas, you should! They’re really good.”


3. MGMTOracular Spectacular
“The MGMT record is a little older now but that one’s good. We’ve been listening to it forever.”


4. The Whigs
The Whigs are simply awesome!”


5. The Stills
“I’m always listening to The Stills.”


—Rick Florino
 
I have always wanted to hear more of what Matt is in to as I have very similar taste to him and Jared's and that playlist proves they clearly are in to the same bands! Thanks Susanna :D

I must check out The Stills...
 
I've got a list of them as well, i'ts in Dutch though ...

Kings of Leon
'Niemand zal ooit aan 'Amazing Grace' kunnen tippen'

Met 'Only by the Night', hun vierde plaat, hebben de Kings of Leon hun grootste succes tot op heden te pakken, en met 'Sex on Fire' dé grijsgedraaide rocksong van 2008. Wij vroegen de familie Followil uit Nashville, Tennessee naar de tien songs die hun leven veranderden.


1. 'Waitin' Around to Die' (Townes Van Zandt)

Caleb Followil (zang) «Townes Van Zandt is mijn absolute idool. Hij was een bad-*** en tegelijk één van de beste songwriters aller tijden. Helaas kon hij zichzelf niet uitstaan, en hij heeft zich dan maar dood gedronken.»

2. 'Renegade' (Thin Lizzy)

Jared Followil (bas) «'Renegade' is het soort stuff waar mijn vader en die van (gitarist) Matt naar luisterden toen ze nog jong waren. Vooral de tekst van dit nummer vind ik geweldig: 'He's got a bike, and that's his throne!'»

3. 'Little Green Apples' (Roger Miller)

Caleb «Deze song heeft een prachtige melodie, maar de tekst is niet bepaald kindvriendelijk: 'There's no such thing as Doctor Seuss or Disneyland and mother goose.' Miller had een pak Disney-soundtracks op z'n actief staan, en daar rekent hij hier genadeloos mee af.»

4. 'Creep' (Radiohead)

Nathan Followil (drums) «'Creep' deed me inzien dat een song niet supersnel hoeft te zijn om een enorme kracht te hebben.»

5. 'Crimson and Clover' (Tommy James & The Shondells)

Caleb «Dankzij 'Crimson and Clover' ben ik muziek gaan maken. Ik heb het nummer leren kennen via mijn oom - 't was de mooiste en tegelijk rauwste muziek die ik al had gehoord. Pas achteraf kreeg ik te horen dat het gaat over een meisje dat ontmaagd wordt.»

6. 'Amazing Grace' (geschreven door John Newton)

Caleb «Niemand zal ooit aan 'Amazing Grace' kunnen tippen. Volgens deze song moet, telkens als je een zonde begaat, iemand dat met zijn leven bekopen. Eigenlijk betekent het zoveel als: blijf vooral een zondaar!»

7. 'Is This It' (The Strokes)

Jared «Het gros van de bassisten die na The Strokes zijn gestart, zal je vertellen dat 'Is This It' één van de invloedrijkste baslijnen van het voorbije decennium heeft.»

8. 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' (George Jones)

Nathan «Ik raak nooit sterkedrank aan, maar telkens als ik 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' hoor, heb ik zin om naar een fles whisky te grijpen. Het is een rasechte countrysong, en ik kom nu eenmaal van the country.»

9. 'Born on the Bayou' (Creedence Clearwater Revival)

Caleb «Creedence Clearwater Revival had de hipste sound van allemaal. Ze deden de Southerners intelligenter lijken dan ze eigenlijk waren, ook al kwamen ze zelf gewoon uit Californië.»

10. 'Lola' (The Kinks)

Caleb «Ik heb altijd al een zwak gehad voor controversiële songs, en 'Lola', over een jongeman die een travestiet verleidt in een bar, was een héél controversiële song. Over zo'n aangebrand onderwerp zingen vergt, euh, ballen!»

Humo.be
 
^^ There was a fotospecial of them in the same magazine called "the wonderyears"
Hope the pictures haven't all been posted yet, haven't got the time nor patience to go through the entire thread

Anyways, they've always been supercute, back then and now ^_^

Oh my gosh! I've never seen those and always kind of wondered what they looked like when they were little! :wub: Jared's classes, so cute! :lol:

Don't know if this one has already been posted or not...from the back of the Aha Shake Heartbreak CD:

I know, and I love how poor little Matt seems to be sinking into the couch, and unable to get up, and Matt and Jared's suspenders and little bow ties are too cute! :wub:

P.S. I meant "glasses" in my post before, not "classes". :blush: ;)
