SPOTTED: Barry Manilow at The Grove for an interview with Mario Lopez of Extra and and a live performance Thursday June 9, 2011.

Manilow’s biggest song hits include Could It Be Magic, Mandy, Can’t Smile Without You, and Copacabana (At the Copa). But he has also written some of the most recognizable commercial jingles ever created including these decades-long favorites: State Farm Insurance (“Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there…”) and Band-Aid (“I am stuck on Band-Aid, ’cause Band-Aids stuck on me!”). Interesting fact: Manilow told the crowd today that he received a measly $100 and $500 for these amazingly successful ads.
