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.
