“It was surreal!” Travis told Us Weekly of suddenly living that rockstar life. “It was popular at a Blink show to have girls topless on top of their boyfriend’s shoulders, or throwing clothes on stage, underwear whatever. It was a trip!”
Having simply hoped “to play music and somehow make enough money to have food and to sleep somewhere,” as he put it, “it was just beyond a dream come true.”
Then he met the beauty queen he thought might fully flesh out the picture. “The first night we hung out, we stared at each other for, like, seven hours,” he recalled of connecting with Shanna at the Rock & Roll Hyatt. “If we’d had sex, I probably would’ve never talked to her again, just being the complete idiot I was.” Instead, he continued, “We had a wild six months, then we had Landon. It was some fairytale s–t.”
In the model-actress, previously engaged to Oscar De La Hoya, “We both met our match,” Travis said. “At the time I would meet someone, or before that I think I’d meet someone and I would just lose interest very quickly. And I think she had enough to really keep me interested and keep me intrigued.”
