Jennifer Aniston & John Mayer Tell Gayle King It's Serious |
02/24/09
I wish I could find a clip online, but I've searched and I can't find it (pre-Youtube). Mayer appeared early on in his career "Late World with Zach" on VH1. (sometime in 2002, I think -- hilarious and way funnier than the appearance on Chappelle's Show).
That was my first chance at seeing Mayer's dry sense of humor. I don't know the guy, but after seeing him be interpreted and misinterpreted over the past 7 years, I think it would be easy for someone who is aware of Mayer, but not a fan of his music to think he's a douche.
I can't comment on the way he treats his girlfriends because I don't know him and I don't know the details of their relationships, but any girl/woman who dates Mayer, or any other man, has the option of saying "I'm out of here" if he is a douche and treats her like sh#@.
Douches are only able to be "douchy" if the girls/women enable this behavior by not standing up for themselves.
That said, If Jen and John are happy, I'm happy for them both. If Jen is unhappy or needs more of a commitment, or whatevs, she should bounce and find someone else.
P.S., I guess cheese is in the ear of the listener, because I think John's pop music and his experiments with blues are both great and I've seen him do both live many times over the last few years.

I agree that he's an amazing guitar player. I kind of wish he'd step out of the spotlight, focus on his music, and maybe get some of his integrity back. He's very talented, but a lot of people don't know that.

Oh and I could care less about John Mayer

After he did that show on VH1 where he dressed up as a bear and went out to the parking lot of his concert and hung out with everyone tailgating for the show (as a bear) I just fell in love. It was pretty funny.

also i saw him play live when i was in college, he is really an amazing guitarist. he should probably just drop the singing thing.
EXCEPT afterwards, my friend grabbed the setlist that had been taped to the stage (very small venue) and we went outside where he was standing by his bus, she asked him to sign it and he WOULD NOT DO IT. like absolutely not. he also wouldn't take any pictures. this was in like 2002, when college students were the only people who knew who he was. dick move for sure.

But I will say that his Chappelle's show appearance was awesome: it showed his surprisingly good guitar skills and what made him funny on that show was that he never said anything.

And I do find him funny, an I do find a lot of other celebrities who deserve the King Douche title more (Piven, Crowe, anyone? Even Bale, who I always inevitably get wet for, has been proven douche-y on tape, and a questionable mom-shoving accusation.)
So why do we pile on Mayer? What made Mayer's douche levels so high in everyone's opinion? Cuz he's a serial dater? I just dont get it.

I saw him live once and he was just so good. He sounded a lot better live, just jamming, than he does on any of his albums. I do agree his voice kinda sucks, and 'Say' is heinous.
But 'Slow Dancing in a Burning Room,' y'all! It's beautiful.

Maybe I just have a thing for assholes, though, because I would be ALL OVER Bale and Younger Version of Crowe in a hot minute.

He can come off a little (or sometimes, a lot) douchey but overall, I like him. Even with the serial dating.

Okay, fine, John. But there's a reason why people like Jack White, and The Edge, and Mark Knopfler are mentioned first when it comes to the best guitar players out there.

I should also say that I have never met him, but he puts himself out there, and although he doesn't always come off in the best way, I like his real-personness. And I think more or less the same about Jennifer Aniston. I hope they keep making each other happy.

Jesus Oprah, calm down. You're Oprah for crying out loud, act like it.

It seems HIGHLY UNNECESSARY!

I mean, jiggawha? Why is she yelling? And why does Gayle always look like she is wearing a wig, stolen from Phyllis Diller's vault from 1947?

HOWEVER...

First, she's only a few feet away from her ex-husband and the chick that stole him from her.
Then the nerves get to her during the presenting because they're so close.
And now, Oprah is harassing her about her relationship.
For all that is good in this world, give this woman a break!
