Spinnin' with Benji Madden and Steve Aoki

Welcome to Young Hollywood.com. I'm Oliver Trevena here with Young Hollywood at a Nylon event with the man himself, Benji Madden. And Steve Aoki. How are you guys?

I'm great.

How are you, Steve? I'm pretty good. I think we've got a shout, cuz we're at a mental party in Hollywood at the Roosevelt, and the noise is insane because of these two guys, cuz they're spinning on this machine.

Yes, we are. We're just playing records. We're just having fun.

Yeah, that's it.

Now Steve, you're known as a DJ. That's you. That's Steve Aoki, the DJ. Benji, tell the English viewers, when did you become a DJ?

Oh, this is my mentor right here. He got me going three years ago, like four years ago. I we when we became friends and started DJing. My mentor. This is HIM-HA. New track, 'Fore and Free'. It's like unbelievable. You should watch the video.

Hey, we have to play, we have to put the video up for CNN. Oh. Corey Kennedy. Oh, Corey Kennedy. There you go.

Hi Corey. How are you?

Hi, how are you? Lovely. My ex-wife too.

It's got a bit weird now. It's weird. Maybe we should talk about that then. So if I become friends with you, Steve, you're going to teach me how to DJ?

Yeah, yeah. I'll just show you how to play good records.

Okay, that's great. I love it.

He's kind of like help you, he just makes you, makes you learn how to be cool.

I like The Beatles and George Michael. That's sick. I I love George Michael. Oh, so we're all winners. Benji Madden, when's your new record coming out?

Uh, Good Charlotte, new record coming out this fall. Cardiology.

And what can we expect from that record?

Uh, catchy songs. Catchy songs.

Um, anything different? Because your songs were always catchy.

Yeah, they're catchier this time. Even catchier.

Okay, so Good Charlotte, we can expect catchier songs this time. That's very impressive. You're very English, for sounds. So it would be like Hello mate, we're Good Charlotte. Like, a little bit.

Yeah.

I love that. I love that. Now your brother's not here. Last time I saw your brother, I was playing football with him.

Hey, he's he's home with the kids. Very. Home with the kids. Very, very.

But he's a very aggressive football player on the field. He's an aggressive guy. And life. But you just want to love and hug.

Yeah, I'm not aggressive. No, no. Two different brothers. One lover, one hater. No, we we work well together, you know.

Benji, when are you planning on having kids and a family?

Oh man, I don't know. I didn't plan yet.

What a question that is for TV. I mean, do you want to have a baby? Yeah. Just one I know about. I get you pregnant tonight then. Me and Benji are officially hooking up tonight. That's how we roll. Can I spin? Can I just touch something that won't make a mess? Ready? I'm going to spin. Let me get to work. There you go. Didn't do anything, but it felt really good. It felt amazing. Benji, what can we expect from uh you but not just the new album. Are you going solo?

No.

So we're never going to plan for a family, probably.

No. No, I like my band. I'm with my band.

At any point in this interview, have you ever thought of proposing to me?

Uh yes, I mean well if we were to have the kids together, then I would definitely want to marry you.

I love that. Honestly, I came here to interview Benji Madden. I've ended up with a husband, a future family, and a well-being, because he's a very successful man. If I got you pregnant, I would marry you. Thanks buddy, you're a good guy. Love you. Funny guy.
