Jesse McCartney: 'Army Wives' Premieres Tonight!

Jesse McCartney catches up on his messages while waiting for a ride at LAX airport in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon (March 9).

The 25-year-old actor stars in the new season of Army Wives — which premieres TONIGHT on Lifetime!

“One of the main reasons I was attracted to play this particular character is because of how lighthearted and sweet the guys is,” Jesse recently told Glamoholic mag. “He’s the kind of person that’s uncomfortable nice to everyone all the time, so, naturally, that leads to a lot of comedic moments, particularly whit his sideman/best friend Hector Cruz, who is almost always in a bad mood.”

He added about training as a soldier, “They put us through boot camp when we arrived in South Carolina and teamed up up with multiple military advisors.”

Be sure to tune in @ 9PM ET/PT on Lifetime!
