While speaking to Howard Stern, Levine, 41, addressed the iconic 2002 “She Will Be Loved” music video, which he starred in alongside Preston. In the interview, Levine admits that he was nervous, since the pair had to share a kiss and he had never done an on-screen smooch before and accidentally took it a little too far.

“When we sat there and I first met her, she was super cool,” Levine says. “It was one of those isolated, beautiful experiences. The video wound up becoming this classic video that everyone loves. I never got to speak to her about it. Life goes on and obviously, we never crossed paths again. I was so sad to hear that news [Preston’s passing].”
Preston, known for her role in Jerry McGuire, passed away at 57-years-old in July after a two-year battle with breast cancer. Her husband, John Travolta, broke the news of her passing through Instagram, sharing that she had been undergoing treatment at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

It’s Important to Catch Breast Cancer Early
Mammograms are the best tools in catching breast cancer early, and the sooner you detect a diagnosis, the better chance treatment will be successful. General guidelines say that women should start screening annually at the age of 45, and continue until 54, but there are exceptions for specific groups of women.
For those who fall under the “high risk” category, which includes women who have had a first-degree relative with breast cancer, the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation, or experienced radiation on their chest, experts suggest going to annual mammogram as early as 30.

Regardless of being high-risk or not, mammograms can be life-saving. Even though visiting the doctor is often not a fun experience, it’s important to not put off your annual mammogram, because it might be the very one which catches a diagnosis.
“Every doctor that I know, every organization that I know really encourages women to have a mammogram,” Dr. Connie Lehman, the Chief of the Breast Imaging Division at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, tells SurvivorNet. “I want to be completely clear. If you are between 50 and 74 and you have not had a mammogram in the last two years, you are overdue. Please get a mammogram.”
