Aww Yeah! Justin Tosco
Name: Justin Tosco

Where You've Seen Him: Singing and playing guitar with his pop-rock band, justincase, in the video for "Don't Cry for Us." Their self-titled debut album came out in October, with Justin's kid brother Nick, 17, on drums, and sister Hannah, 16, on bass.

Why We Picked Him: That little-boy-meets-surfer-dude look reminds me of the guy I had a major crush on last summer. Okay, I'm still into that guy—and now Justin, too.

Songs That Didn't Make The Album: "When I was 4, I wrote my first song, 'Baseball,'" says Justin. "It was a very deep, passionate song. When I was 13, I finished 'Face of an Angel,' which wasn't cheesy at all. Gotta love a guy who's sarcastic.

Great Show, Now Leave: When justincase started playing clubs around their hometown of Charlotte, NC, all of them were way underage. (Even Justin was only 15!) As soon as the show finished, he says, "We'd get kicked out and have to sell merchandise on the street."

The One Bad Thing About Him: He has a girlfriend. "It's obviously really serious or I wouldn't be sticking with it, because it's so hard to see her." Hey, I'm willing to travel...
