Rock star's 'awful' date with Melissa Joan Hart led to finding love with his wife

Blink-182 bassist and singer Mark Hoppus didn’t have a magical evening with Melissa Joan Hart. In an excerpt from his new memoir, "Fahrenheit-182," shared with Entertainment Weekly, Hoppus recalled meeting the "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch" star at the Teen Choice Awards, "and she must've found me interesting because she had her publicist reach out to my label's publicist to give me her number. Totally normal courtship." Hoppus admitted he tried to be cool and use "Hollywood industry jargon" but realized it probably didn’t impress her because she "had been famous for years."

The pair went on a date for sushi, but Hoppus didn’t feel like they were clicking. "It was an awful date. She was very nice, but we weren't connecting. Everything in her life revolved around acting, and it was hard to relate to her about anything else," he wrote. He said when he asked about what kind of food she liked besides sushi, she said she mostly eats what’s available on set. When he asked about what she liked to read, she said she mostly read scripts for work.
