Biography

Il naît dans la banlieue de New York en 1987 de Scott McCartney et Ginger McCartney (née Sarber) et débute très tôt dans le milieu artistique. Après quelques spectacles locaux, il intègre la distribution de la comédie musicale Anna et le roi à l'âge de dix ans, puis joue l'année suivante au Madison Square Garden aux côtés de Roger Daltrey dans une adaptation musicale de Un chant de Noël de Charles Dickens. En 1998, il obtient son premier rôle télévisé dans le soap La Force du destin (All My Children). Il y tient le rôle de Adam Chandler Jr jusqu’en 2001, un rôle qui lui vaut deux désignations en tant que candidat aux Daytime Emmy Awards, en 2001 et en 2002, dans la catégorie « Meilleur jeune acteur ».

Parallèlement à ses débuts d’acteur, Jesse démarre une carrière musicale. En 1999, il intègre le boys band Dream Street. Le groupe sort deux albums, dont le premier, édité en 2001, est certifié disque d'or aux États-Unis. Les garçons se séparent en 2002, pendant une tournée avec Aaron Carter, après un procès contre leur producteur.

Il se lance ensuite dans une carrière solo, tout d'abord en participant à des bandes originales pour les studios Disney, en 2004 : Comme Cendrillon (avec Hilary Duff et Chad Michael Murray), Ella au pays enchanté avec Anne Hathaway (il interprète un duo avec l’actrice sur une reprise d’Elton John, Don’t go breaking my heart) ainsi que le « Disney Channel Original Movie » La Naissance d'une nouvelle star. Il interprète également un chant de Noël sur la compilation Radio Disney Jingle Jams, éditée fin 2004.

En juin 2004, Jesse McCartney est l'un des acteurs principaux de la série estivale Summerland avec Lori Loughlin, diffusée sur The WB. Il y incarne le rôle de Bradin Westerly, un adolescent orphelin qui se passionne pour le surf. La série est renouvelée pour une seconde saison, puis est arrêtée en juillet 2005. Il interprète également son propre rôle dans un épisode de la série Ce que j'aime chez toi (également diffusée sur la WB) en octobre 2004, ainsi que dans La Vie de palace de Zack et Cody (diffusée sur Disney Channel) en septembre 2005.

En septembre 2004, Jesse McCartney sort un premier album Beautiful Soul chez Hollywood Records (filiale de Disney). Le premier single extrait, Beautiful Soul, sort en décembre 2004. Le titre atteint la seizième place du Billboard et la première place des ventes de singles aux Philippines (semaine du 29 janvier au 4 février 2005), en Australie (du 3 au 24 avril 2005) et à Taïwan.



L'album comprend quatre titres coécrits par Jesse (That Was Then, Get Your Shine On, What's Your Name et She's No You), ainsi que des titres écrits par Desmond Child. Il totalise 1,5 million de ventes et est certifié disque de platine aux États-Unis. De mai à septembre 2005, il réalise une tournée américaine de 56 dates, puis une tournée en Australie, à l'automne 2005.

Courant 2005 il signe en tant que supporteur officiel de Little Kids Rock, une organisation à but non lucratif qui offre gratuitement des instruments de musique et de l'enseignement aux enfants dans les écoles publiques défavorisées, à travers les États-Unis, il siège au conseil d'administration de LKR.

Le 21 novembre 2005 sort le single Come Together Now, pour les victimes du tremblement de terre du 26 décembre 2004 et de l'ouragan Katrina (à qui il a fait don de toutes ses recettes, récoltées lors de sa tournée de 2005), un projet auquel Jesse McCartney participe, avec de nombreux autres artistes (Céline Dion, Joss Stone, Wyclef Jean, etc.). Au cours de l'année, il est également à nouveau sollicité pour des bandes originales pour Disney : le titre Get your shine on (extrait de l'album Beautiful Soul) est repris dans Kim Possible et Ice Princess, ainsi que sur la bande originale de Summerland. Pour les compilations Disney Mania, il reprend des versions dance des titres The Second Star to the Right (Peter Pan), When you wish upon a star (Pinocchio) et I'll Try (Peter Pan 2 : Retour au Pays Imaginaire).
Il double le personnage de Roxas dans le jeu vidéo Kingdom Hearts 2, qui sort en décembre 2005, dans Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, sortit en 2009, tout comme dans Kingdom Hearts : Birth By Sleep (2010), Kingdom Hearts 3D : Dream Drop Distance (2012) et Kingdom Hearts III (2019) où il double à la fois Roxas et Ventus.

Jesse a enregistré des spots radio pour la promotion de la campagne "Kids for a Drug-Free America". Il est également le porte-parole de St. Jude Children's Research Hospital et participe au concert "Hope Rocks", en 2005 au profit de "City of Hope Cancer Center", qu'il a déjà visité et pour qui il a fait un spot TV, pour un appel aux dons.

Le 19 septembre 2006, Jesse McCartney sort un deuxième album, Right Where You Want Me, à nouveau chez Hollywood Records. L'album ne rencontre pas le succès de Beautiful Soul : après une première semaine à la 15e place des ventes d'albums américaines (soit mieux que le premier album), Right Where You Want Me n'atteint pas les 300 000 ventes américaines, et les 450 000 ventes internationales. Le temps d'un épisode, Jesse McCartney retrouve les plateaux de All my children, pour jouer son propre rôle (en septembre 2006).

Au cours de l'année 2007, il joue le petit ami de Hannah Montana (Miley Cyrus) dans la série de Disney Channel pour un épisode et double Theodore dans le film adapté de la série Alvin et les Chipmunks. Il cosigne également le titre Bleeding Love de Leona Lewis, numéro 1 des ventes britanniques et il signe le titre Don't Leave pour Vanessa Hudgens.

En 2008, Jesse sort son troisième album, Departure, dont sont extraits le gros succès Leavin', chanson téléchargée plus de 2 millions de fois dans le monde, mais aussi « It's Over ». De plus, pour la version française de cet album Jesse interprète une de ses chansons, extraite de l'album Right Where You Want Me, intitulée « Just So You Know », qu'il réadapte et chante entièrement en français, sous le nom de « De toi à moi » et de sa version de « Bleeding Love ».

En 2009, il réédite cet album sous le nom de Departure Recharged, avec quatre nouvelles chansons dont deux duos avec Ludacris (sur How Do You Sleep) et T-Pain (sur Body Language) qui auront aussi du succès. 2009 est aussi l'année où Jesse s'implique de plus en plus dans les actions caritatives, notamment pour la lutte contre le cancer (il participe d'ailleurs à un concert caritatif, The Concert for Hope, en compagnie de Miley Cyrus et Demi Lovato, en octobre 2009 afin de récolter des fonds pour la recherche).

En 2010, Jesse prépare son quatrième album avec des producteurs renommés, tels que Sean Garrett, Jackie Boyz ou encore Andre Merritt. Son parfum, Wanted, est également présenté durant cette même année, mais il ne sortira officiellement qu'en 2011.

Son quatrième album Have it all devrait sortir courant 2012 aux USA dont un 1er single Shake, sorti en septembre 2010 et une 2e chanson, dévoilée en 2011, sur Facebook, intitulée "One Night".

Jesse continue parallèlement à collaborer avec d'autres artistes comme Tyga ou encore Justin Bieber, en leur écrivant des chansons.

Après avoir pris part à la saison 7 de la série American Wives dans le rôle de Tim Truman, Jesse part avec les Backstreet Boys, pour leur tournée intitulée In a World Like This qui passera dans plusieurs villes des États-Unis et du Canada, durant l'été 2013. À partir du 25 juillet 2014, Jesse partira en tournée pour son nouvel album In Technicolor en Amérique de nord. Le In Technicolor Tour se terminera le 4 septembre 2014 à Anaheim. Après la sortie de son single Superbad, Jesse revient avec un nouvel album intitulé In Technicolor qui sortira le 22 juillet 2014.

A dust speck is dislodged from its obscure place and sent adrift through the Jungle of Nool. At the same time, Horton the elephant (Jim Carrey), the jungle's eccentric nature teacher, takes a dip in the pool. The dust speck floats past him in the air, and he hears a tiny yelp coming from it. Believing that an entire society of microscopic creatures are living on that speck, he places it atop a clover. Horton finds out the speck harbors the city of Whoville and its inhabitants, the Whos, led by Mayor Ned McDodd (Steve Carell). He has a wife, Sally (Amy Poehler), 96 daughters (whose names all begin with the letter H), and one teenage son named JoJo (Jesse McCartney). Despite being the oldest and next in line for the mayoral position, JoJo doesn't want to be mayor, and because he's so scared of disappointing his father, never speaks. Once Horton begins carrying the speck with him, the city starts experiencing strange phenomena (earthquakes and changes in the weather), and the Mayor finds his attempts to caution Whoville challenged by the Town Council, led by the opportunistic yet condescending Chairman (Dan Fogler).
