Adam Levine wasn't impressed by the person who hurled a bag of white flour over him.

The Maroon 5 frontman had the white power bomb hurled at him moments before he appeared on US TV show Jimmy Kimmel Live.

He was hit square in the head by a man in the crowd outside the studio in Los Angeles as the singer signed autographs.

The flour covered his patterned jacket, his jeans and trainers.

Levine was recording an interview for the chat show and also performed his latest song Sugar.
