At a "Secret" Show, John Mayer Says He's Been "Doing a Lot of Thinking"
when he performed Tuesday night.
Late Tuesday evening, The Daily Transom headed to the Lower East Side, where John Mayer performed a "secret" midnight show at Mercury Lounge. Mr. Mayer was extremely loquacious between songs, but the notorious oversharer remained mum about Perez Hilton's recent allegations about him on Howard Stern's radio show. Mr. Mayer did, however, remark to the small audience—which included comedians Sherrod Small and James Smith—that "the sweat stains on my shirt predict McCain will win." The "subversive hipster crowd" (as Mr. Mayer dubbed the audience) booed, and he smirked and continued, "He's the juice box fortune heir, right? This is the worst segue into 'Waiting on the World to Change' ever. read more »

Celebrity Stumpers: John Mayer Has Room For Squares, Ron Paul
Okay, so it’s not exactly a new stump speech. Or even a speech, really. (Heck, are these people even celebrities?) In any case, this ethanol-scented clip features singer John Mayer getting into a tiff with former Mac spokesman Justin Long. Whatever about? Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, of course—a politician Mr. Mayer is game to go to the mattresses for.
Mr. Long, who has somehow leveraged his Apple gig into a real acting career, insists that he and Mr. Mayer are just loudly agreeing (“We’re saying the same thing!” he shouts), but the cuddlesome crooner doesn’t seem to see it that way. “What Ron Paul wants to do...,” he shouts over and over, before being shoved further from Mr. Long and his curiously large posse. “What about Condoleezza [Rice]?” Mr. Long then asks Mr. Mayer, while someone (also famous?) jumps on his back. “No, not [drag performer] RuPaul,” Mr. Mayer hollers back, before adding: “Ron Paul! Read the constitution.”
John Mayer: 'I Fell Asleep With the Gay Network Logo On'
It looks like John Mayer had a good time last night at Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter’s Waverly Inn. As the 30-year-old crooner was leaving the exclusive West Village eatery, apparently alone, a TMZ videographer rolled as Mr. Mayer sounded off.
In the midst of his rant, he accuses TMZ.com managing editor Harvey Levin of abusing the freedom of information act by subpeoning Mr. Mayer's thoughts—specifically the ones he had on September 14, 2007.
“The reason I’m so worried about this night is that I had a little bit too much to drink that night and I fell asleep with the gay network Logo on,” he told them with a straight face, pausing to look at the ground for a few moments. “A lot of dreams were had that night and if they ever get out, they represent a very small fraction of my day.” read more »
John Mayer: "I'm Kind of a Douchebag"
Baby-faced musician John Mayer has finally discovered this thing called the Internet. Last night in New York, in a move that could either feed the anti-Mayer fire or snuff it altogether, the singer was filmed by a TMZ videographer admitting that even he can’t stand John Mayer.
“I went on the Internet today, and I Googled myself. And I had to kinda put it all together at once to realize, at the end of it all, I'm kind of a douchebag. I want to apologize at the Internet world at large.”
Don't expect an impassioned defense from this guy.
