Singer John Mayer broke down onstage during a show somewhere last night. He kind of half-assed apologized for dropping the N-word during a Playboy magazine interview. This is typical narcissistic behavior. When they get called out on their sh*t they give half-assed apologies that are designed to gain sympathy. He doesn’t mean a word in his apology, he just thinks that’s what you want to hear. Deep down inside he’s happy that he managed to attract all this headline grabbing attention that we’re giving him.
A commenter on ONTD transcribed John Mayer’s rambling apology for those of us who couldn’t care less to:
it’s been difficult because in my quest to be clever… in the quest to be clever and try to slither out of what i perceived to be constant persecution or somebody trying to pin me, which may or may not ever really be happening, but i think that it is a lot of the time when it’s actually not. in the quest to be clever, i completely forgot about the people that i love and that love me. and as i have begun to (???) a whirlpool of selfishness, and greediness and arrogance…and thinking if i just continue to be speedy and witty and pull together as many fast words and phrases as i could, that i would be clever enough to buy myself another day without anybody pinning me down and saying ‘you’re a creep’. and when i should have just given that up and played the guitar… so i decided i would try to be as clever as possible all the time. and i did that at the expense of people that i love and that feels absolutely terrible. it feels worse than any headline i thought i could get my way out of. and i think it’s important that you know that everybody on this stage is here playing with me not because they condone what i say in any interview… they are not on this stage because they support what i said, they’re on this stage because they support myself as a possible future grown-up. and maybe they see something that i don’t… so maybe i need to take a break from trying to be clever and spend a little time looking at what they see. cause they’ve done an unbelievable thing standing on this stage and standing by my side tonight. it’s just not worth being clever…. i’m out …. just wanna play my guitar … “
Whatever John.
He should have just played his guitar in the first place and kept his mouth shut.

That made me dizzy trying to figure out what the hell he ws trying to say.

I can’t wait until he grows up.
If John Mayer’s plan was to get people talking, he has accomplished that task. He has every blog, including this one, talking about him.
I think it was all blown out of proportion anyway….NEXT! ——>
I can see why he’s not able to have a long lasting relationship now, he needs to go sit down somewhere and shut up.
Is there an emoticon for :pulling my hair out:
Please Sandra, please give us some good, hot mess, slick, gossip. I’m begging you….
And before someone decides to be a smartazz and tell me to skip over the post, SKIP OVER THIS POST.
Anyway, Wendy looks cute with dark hair and I want her Wonder Woman coffee mug.

Would have done the same thing. They are so different from us when it comes to those types of things. I dont even participate in work food functions because of that very reason.
@Nika: I would’ve done the same thing. That’s nasty as hell
John,
Save it for your therapist and your KKK meetings. Hopefully, they will have you as the opening act for their annual cross-burning gathering. Whatever.

@ Nika, the only thing I would have done differently was turned the slice of cake over onto the floor. Other than that – you did the right thing. She would have had to pick it up, with her fangah-lickin’ azz.

I’m the same way at work and everyone thinks i’m a snob for not participating in the food functions. it’s just a cultural difference. besides, i watch ppl carry the food out on the same carts we carry our mouse cages (i work in a lab). so gross.

@Nika
I worked for a little bit in an office environment where they had potlucks for any and everything. I never ate the food unless it was something that I brought and I always got it before it was on the table. I was called a snob and that I thought I was better than everybody else for not partaking int the “festivities” (behind my back of course) but I did not give a dang.
@ Nika,
And the co-worker who said it was mean for you to throw it away could have got that slice of cake before the floor did in all actuality. “Here ya’ go. Eat that”
I agree , I would of thrown it away too! No matter what race the person is there are some nasty mofo’s out there. I would of not made a big issue of it, I would of took it back to my desk/office and threw it away there…..
I threw out the rest of the cake that was left, all my coworkers are YT, these are the same ppl I have sprayed Oust on for not covering their mouths when they cough and disinfected the whole office twice because of ppl coughing and then touching stuff so they knew I was going to do it, this same chick is the reason I had to rearrange my desk because she kept touching stuff on it while she was sick and using my kleenex.

lol sorry hun!
CHIIIiiiiiiiiile
“we” aren’t always clean either. I don’t know why it has to be “they”. This is so frustrating that everything has to be a racial issue. This is beating the hell out of a dead horse.
I don’t participate in potlucks either. We have a few people around here that have no problem letting you know they only wash on Tuesdays and Saturdays and those same ones lick their dogs in the mouth. I only imagine what their house looks like… yuck.
@ Gypseye, I didn’t mean it as an us Vs. them, I mean’t as I’m the only AA and so they already think I’m mean. So they were calling me a meany but some of them were mouthing “thank you” behind the big bosses back.
@everyone
Has everyone seen the additional info posted in the comment section of that lawyer lady/ATL Housewives post? Sandra and some of the posters gave some not so nice info on the lawyer’s husband. Straight foolery.
Sandra, make a post on this dude, if it won’t get you in hot water with Phaedra peep’s, please.
texarican mamcita,
I saw it. I think Sandra need to do a post on him too.
@ nika405 Says:
You weren’t mean. I would have done the same thing. Mean is licking your fingers and putting your nasty fingers on cake that everyone is going to eat. That’s mean and nasty.
Shit, im funny about who I eat after PERIOD… I wont even eat out of my BFF’s house because I know her “cleaniness” is not the same as mine..
@ Nika
The white people I work with here be double dipping something terrible! Coughing with their mouth open and all that nasty stuff. I dont think that was mean of you at all. She need to get some manners! Would she want you licking her food? Im just saying

@texarican mamacita #33, (loves the name, makes me giggle every time I see it)
yeah, I saw that (I had to go in and seeif anybody named a hairdresser THANKS FREE) but *in my guccimane voice* dayum! he does look suspect but what Sandra was saying about her being his comeup is agreeable. My only questionis, how the hell you get denied for a barber/apprentice license
you gotta be a special kind of slow to mess that up. LOL!
And I laughed about the comments on her house. i couldn’t see a kthcen, ain’t really sure what a cheap banister is but I do know that somepeople buy houses they can afford to live in and AND carry chanel, gucci and prada without robbing Peter to pay Paul.
No we arent always clean thats true however that ish is nasty and I am always the one at work at functions reminding people to wash they hands and not breath ova the food with the purel in hand for those who dont think they have to wash hands. You would think that we are in a hospital it would be second nature.
Now John Mayer
Nika that wasn’t directed towards at you at all.
@Princess
I’ve been in TX for so long I now consider myself both Texan and Puerto Rican and my kids are half and half; hence the name. I even have a tattoo (hidden because I’m a prude for that stuff) of a two hearts: a Texan one and a PR one intertwined for my kids.
CAN THIS BE OVER ALREADY?
@texarican mamacita #42, that’s a tattoo I approve of. Sounds very sweet and endearing.
Thanks @ Texarican for the update. I feel an Intense moment in 5…4…3…2
I hope Sandra does a post on him. Ha!

That is why I do not eat what they bring here. They are forever trying to have potlucks and offer desserts they make. There is one lady that always wants to make this particular dessert, but she is notorious for going into the restroom and not washing her hands before she leaves.
So now is @ Nika racist (& all the co signers) because she made it a point to point out that the white co workers said she was wrong?
& I’m not calling you a racist Nika I’m just using that as an example that this John Mayer story is so stupid to me.
He didn’t call anyone a nicca. He used the word to make an example of something someone said to him that he thought was wrong.
He shouldn’t have aplologize because that means you were wrong for something.
(& I wouldn’t have eaten that damn cake either. What kind was though? Cause if it was yellow w chocolate frosting or red velvet I would’ve had to cut my own slice
)

I’ve seen this many times…
Just pure laziness..
I agree I would not have apologized either, people are apologizing way to much these days and its getting to a point where the apology does not mean nothing but a pr stunt…
@ Mskaylamomma –
How is your sis and the lil one doing?
Yea…he’s a toad!!
Just from looking at that I feel like Im gonna lose some brain cells if i actually read it!!
You said it right Sandra…WHATEVER JOHN!
@ nika
because that reminds me of my co-workers…we had a company-wide food day but my team di not want to participate with the rest of the place because of germs so we had a team food day just for us…ok I was not mad at them for that but…the chick that suggested that we do our own food day has been sucking out of the same dang straw in her cup for the past 3 months i kid u not!!! she has not washed that cup out or anything! One of my other co-workers took a napkin and grabbed the nasty straw out and replaced it with another one last week when she was away from her desk lol. She has had the same cough for months, I wonder why??? needless to saw I don’t touch anything she cooks lol!
@iscream
For what its worth, I think your post has been the only one on the J.Mayer topic that has made any type of sense and hit the nail on the head, IMO.
@ my old job a lot of the workers were from france and they never washed their hands after using the bathroom. I was told it was cultural…
If one of my other co-workers was in the bathroom w/ one of them she would yell out to them as they where leaving the bathroom to wash their hands…
Thankfully we did not have to many work related functions!
@ Cheeks
Thats just nastay!!!!!!
@ Florida, I guess they are doing okay. She came to my house a couple of weeks back and she’s says she looking for a job. But I doubt it. I haven’t spoken to her since then. She’s still pissed at me, I guess.
@ Chase –
Arent they((people from France)) the ones that dont shave too???

Yeah, they were a nasty bunch….
@ Iscream it was marble, with buttercream icing. I bought it at Sams and I was really looking forward to eating it!
@ Cheecks when I was in the Navy this guy told me he’s never washed out his coffee cup, (he had been at the command for 5 years!) because it makes the coffee taste better. I put him on my do not eat from list. I’m in charge of the potlucks so if ppl are not on the list I make my plate 1st and then I don’t go back for seconds.
hey sandra..what is the word on LA Ried getting the boot..i hear new boss is not happy with rihanna and mariah sales and wants HITS!!!
this douche needs to just disappear..so annoying!!
This is the second time this story has been posted, and most posters here don’t even know who this guy is. At this point, it seems as if we are being antagonized into trying to know this boy, and knowing this he called blacks ‘niggers’. Why should we be surprised and why should we care? If we hated everyone that called us niggers, we’d hate a lot of people, and that is a lot of poorly spent energy.
It’s more enlightening to just ignore him and move around.
Girl Bye
I agree w/ iscream. I have a discriminatory kitty also, that doesn’t make me racist. It’s attraction.
@ MsG
That is nasty!! The office I work in has a cubicle type setting. The cubicles are in groups of about 8. There was a lady on the end of our “group” and she had the nastiest wet cough for about 3 weeks straight. She was not covering her mouth and got 4 other people in our area sick. My cough turned into a bronchial tube infection. People thought I was mean for saying she needs to cover her mouth. I felt really bad after a while.
@ gypsyeyes
You are 100% right. White people are not the only people who do nasty things. Unfortunately in my workplace there are very few people of any other race. So my personal experience at work is with white people doing nasty stuff
@ chase, we had a unit from France on our ship for 3wks one time, they only took baths 1 day a week and they did not use deodrant(sp) at all and didn’t wash their hands before getting in the chow line. After they left it we spent the next 2 days cleaning the ship from top to bottom trying to get rid of the smell. And we had to throw away all the bedding they had used.
I learned from this that blacks care more about what is said about Beyonce than what is said about our race… smh
New post is up
ummm, Currently in my office 4 people have a hacking cough… now I feel a little yucky!
Him not liking or sexing black women is NOT racist but him using a David Duke and other references to make his point was outta pocket IMO. Was I offended and crying racism NO but he did get the *side eye* He could have made his point using different words and I dont know why ppl are acting like its about him not liking black women when its bigger than that IMO. Clearly we all have preferences and what have that is not breaking news but he was trying to be deep and it was an #EPICFAIl!!
Stick to making good music John #thatisall
We can’t forgive Kanye but we should forgive references to David Duke?! Where have we gone wrong?!
Whatever John!!!!
I was more outraged by his use of the n word and the David Duke reference. I could care less about his feelings toward black women. To each its own…
Would have done the same thing. They are so different from us when it comes to those types of things. I dont even participate in work food functions because of that very reason.
I hate the B/W issue because WE get so defensive as if someone is personally attacting you. Make sure no one laughs at the “honky” or cracker jokes
I love John Mayer’s music, and I was so proud of him when he played the guitar at Michael Jackson’s memorial service . However, he gets a serious side eye from me for his White supremacist peen comment. I think he was using the N word as a euphemism, but why would you say you’re sexually allergic to Black women? We have it so hard already, and it’s because of comments like this that men of all colors are so biased towards us. It’s like we’re too strong, opinionated, educated, and exotic, so the men go out and get sista-lites.
He and Obama have a similar voice. Creepy.
I used to love him. His music is brilliant. But like most people (black, white, fuschia, taupe) that are blessed with such an amazing gift, his personality has always come off (outside of his songs) as being just shit.
I dont find my Presidents voice creepy at all
He should have kept his mouth closed in the first place.
Case Closed.
