About Jesse McCartney
Jesse McCartney began entertaining and delighting audiences at a very early age in off-Broadway shows including Oliver, A Christmas Carol, and Annie Get Your Gun. In 1994, at the age of seven, he embarked on a national tour of The King and I. 1998 brought his big break in television with the role of Adam Chandler, Jr. on All My Children. McCartney stayed with the show for the next three years and won several awards for his portrayal of Chandler.
In 1999 he indulged his other passion, music, when he auditioned for and won a spot in a boy band called Dream Street. The group's album went platinum, and they toured with Britney Spears before legal issues with the producers caused the band's breakup in 2002. His first band was called the Sugar Beats, and in 2003 McCartney partnered with their producer Sherry Kondor to launch his solo career. The song Beautiful Soul was born of this collaboration and eventually became the title track for McCartney's solo album and the name of his tour.
McCartney never abandoned acting and appeared the films The Pirates of Central Park and The Strange Legacy of Cameron Cruz. In 2004 he landed the role of Brandin Westerly on the WB's hit teen series Summerland. He has also combined the genres of music and film, contributing songs to the films Cinderella Story, Stuck in the Suburbs and Ella Enchanted, for which he performed a duet of Elton John's Don't Go Breakin' My Heart with the film's star, Anne Hathaway.
Born April 9, 1987 to Ginger and Scot McCartney, Jesse is the oldest of three children. His sister Lea Joyce was born in 1991 and brother Timmy, with whom Jesse is very close, came along in 1996. He graduated from Ardsley High School (New York) in 2005, where he was a junior varsity baseball pitcher. Jesse's best friend is former band mate Greg Raposo.
