JOHN LAMENTS ON THE GARBAGE THAT IS FAME

John Mayer’s love/hate relationship with the media continues.

The funny face-making crooner responded to a question from a concert-goer at the Z100 Lounge at New York City’s Spotlight Live nightclub last night who asked if he had ever “hooked up” with a fan from a performance.

His answer? : “Do you respect my honesty? Yes, I have.” Then he laughed and added, “But that was before camera phones were around!”

Mr. Mayer also commented on life in the public eye. “TMZ is made of some garbage items,” said the 30-year-old musician. “I can’t be killed by garbage because I’m made of garbage. That’s the game and I’m okay with that.”

    I am starting to like him a lot. The relationship with Jen seems real to me anyways and why should it not be real and sincere?

    I’m sure he has a lot fans but I find his music really cheesy and he just doesn’t do it for me in the looks and personality department.

    What a load of bullshit. I don’t see John minding all the money that comes with fame.

    All these celebrities and their hating and fame is annoying. They knew what they were doing and they are RICH. STFU and enjoy the fact that u don’t have to work ar Subway to make the monthly mortgage payment.

    Agree with My2cents! Stop being cry babies about being filthy rich when the rest of the world is being put into poverty.

    First, the term ‘mad skills’ was coined by Jeffrey Sebelia on Project Runway…ya know, the REAL rock n Roll Tatted guy, the ex-junkie…that would scare the bejeezes out of any John Mayer fan so don’t be using ‘mad skils’ to describe John Mayer. And besides, no girlies who listen to John Mayer know anything about guitar skills, they only know he is ‘dreamy’ and that people SAY he is a talented guitarist! And sorry I sound so agro…but I did find him very amusing and enjoyed his witty way of hadling the press and thought it was funny that he said he and TMZ were garbage and garbagae doesn’t destroy other garbage…but then that ginormous talent and brain of his that he always has to point out that he has, goes on to show the magicians trick and the man behind the curtain…the one that says he is playing TMZ to pacify his loser fans who use sites like TMZ to see him and if his fans want to belittle themselves by going to a site like TMZ just to see him walk down to the street to the gym, then he is going to make nice with them as it plays well to his fans. BUT HE IS PUTTING HIS FANS BY SAYING THAT THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT TO SEE AND SO THEREFORE HE PANDERS DOWN TO THEM! If he would’ve stopped at the garbage point, he’d have been ok and been funny and self-deptecating. Here he is being arrogant, smug and admitting to be a publicity whore for the sake of pandering down to his fan base! You Mayer fans should be insulted by this nimrod! Hope we can actually see his career as the toilet water flushes it out to sea…

    This guy thinks he is so smart and witty and that he’s Brad Pitt or something with that big ol’ melon head. When in fact he is the biggest wannabe hack out there, from his outdated, poser tattoos , his nonsensical blog rants which he thinks make him sound intelligent and artsy when in reality they make him sound like a pathetic wannabe intellectual to his staged photo ops, even the ones that look like he is annoyed that the camera is there. Dude you are such a phony and a total hypocrite. And you are also gay since you made out with Perez Hilton

    What a big douche bag. You see a drunken idiot in the streets blabbering like crazy and you say man just shut up, just shut the hell up. Well that’s John Mayer. Yeah he got us talking alright-about what a big idiot douche bag he is. Even got some talking about his garbage girlfriend to. If that was his goal then he is very psychotic.
