Feldstein founded management company Career Artist Management (CAM), which was based out of the Live Nation offices in Beverly Hills. In addition to Maroon 5, the CAM roster includes Miguel, Elle King and Robin Thicke.<\/p>\n
Feldstein career wasn’t without controversy.<\/p>\n
In 2014 Sara Bareilles fired Feldstein following a heated exchange between Feldstein and Sharon Osbourne at the Clive Davis\/Recording Academy-sponsored pre-Grammy gala.<\/p>\n
The fight at the swank Beverly Hilton Hotel apparently erupted over comments Feldstein made about Sharon’s son Jack and his wife.<\/p>\n
According to E! Online, Feldstein was first spotted in the ballroom arguing with Jack’s sister Kelly, with her mother Sharon following up after her daughter stormed away from Feldstein’s table.<\/p>\n
“Sharon walked up to him pointing her finger and screaming,” an eyewitness said. With Bareilles seated nearby, Feldstein and Sharon Osbourne apparently got into an exchange that resulted in Osbourne tipping over a plate of food on his lap and throwing water at his head.<\/p>\n
Feldstein got his start in the entertainment industry working for ICM and Bill Leopold Management. He and Maroon 5\u2019s front man Adam Levine were friends from childhood, and Feldstein managed Maroon 5 from their inception, guiding the band as they became one of music\u2019s most successful international touring acts.<\/p>\n
Feldstein is a father to two children and was previously married twice, once to Francesca Eastwood, the daughter of Clint Eastwood. The 2013, marriage was annulled after a week.<\/p>\n
His family asked for privacy during this difficult and unexpected time. \u201cIn lieu of food and flowers, the family will announce a charity in the coming weeks where memorial donations can be made in Jordan\u2019s name,\u201d said a family statement.<\/p>\n
Live Nation also released a statement. \u201cWe are deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Jordan Feldstein and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. Jordan was a gifted manager whose artists benefited greatly from his guidance and talents. He will be missed by his Live Nation and Roc Nation family.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
