His philosophy was evident Friday afternoon when he played several songs at Stay Sweet Cupcakery on Market Street. The appearance came hours before he performed a private concert for Bucknell University students in Lewisburg. “Just play out as frequent as possible, be it a coffee shop or a large stage,” he said. “People seeing you is important. Get on as many stages as you can.” Fans at the shop were introduced to a live performance of “Who Would Have Known,” a track written for his wife that will appear in his upcoming second major-label album.

Seacrest, however, sees why Zoanette is still around. “My take is that [her performance] was full of volume from the hair to the voice, and I didn’t forget about it,” he says. “The more you see her, she’s actually like this den mother with the contestants. They all hang out with her.” – Read more at Hollywood.com
