It seems that even being called out as a racist, misogynistic, homophobic jackass wasn’t enough to keep John Mayer off of Twitter. Even after that incident (the Playboy interview), Mayer kept tweeting on a regular basis. But now he’s long gone! As it turns out, all we really needed to do to get him to shut up was just ignore him and act like he was pretty much irrelevant as a “celebrity.” Worked like a charm!
John Mayer has said tah tah to Twitter. The 32-year-old “Your Body is a Wonderland” singer — who had more than 3.7 million followers — has discontinued his account as he prepares to head back to the studio, his rep announced Monday.
He plans to communicate with fans via his blog.
Mayer used Twitter to talk to fans about a variety of issues. He famously denied being a racist following a controversial Playboy interview and even used his account to invite University of South Carolina students to see a free show earlier this year.
He isn’t the first star to leave Twitter. Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato and LeAnn Rimes have all, at one time, bid farewell.

Yes, how will be able to get by with no Mayer Twitter? I guess we’ll just have to make do with his Tumblr, his website, and his Facebook. Sob! It was actually on his Tumblr page that Mayer told off HuffPo for daring to repeat other sites’ claims that he and Aniston were back to boning. Still no denial on that, by the way. His poor rep has to release statements about quitting Twitter, but Mayer and Aniston are still playing the bait and switch game. Fascinating. Is this Twitter cancellation the latest indication that Mayer is back with Aniston? You know Aniston always hated that he was so accessible to his fans and to the press. Interesting…
Here is one of the last things Mayer tweeted: “GPOYW – A Self Portrait of The Artist Three Days Before His Metaphoric Retirement”…
Ugh.
1. Ugliest trousers ever.
2. In his shirt, his name is written so that he can read HIS own name (in case he forgets).
Oh no, say it isn’t so!
I didn’t even notice that… he’s wearing his own shirt to perform. Lol! What priceless asshattery. Tells you all you really need to know.
Twitter was better before everyone knew about it. Once celebrities and the general public caught on, I quit.
anything to get back the lady, so obvious
Yup, Jen is getting her man. These two will be engaged by this Valentines day and married shortly after. Expect twin boys for this couple.
LMAO. Goodness gracious that picture of him at the top. OMG. Love the black and white pic of him.
I am really sad he quit Twitter. He made Twitter really fun. Oh well. I do wonder if he is back with Aniston, she hated his Twitter.
Oh LeAnn Rimes quit Twitter for a like a sec, lol.
he quit twitter because he was just featured on twittiots –

Woah…unrelated – but I just read the link regarding Motley Crue in the “Featured Links.” Ugh! I want to vomit!
Love it that this post has so few comments…that means no one cares about douchey meyer!!
He’s wearing his OWN SHIRT!!! Need I say
more???!!
Seeing that I don twitt, I really could care less, and even though he is a complete Douch, that first pic, is kind of cute.
A good move. Twitter only got him into trouble. As long as he sticks to composing and singing, the better off he is–and the rest of us too.
meh. calling huffpo out was a good thing. a reputable news source with a political edge has no business speculating about celebrity romances.
on another note, good to see that finally this site is posting some flattering photos of the man. he’s no aphrodite but dayyyumm the photos here were ridic.
You know what? I’m not one to make judgements about John Mayer being a douche or not…I mean, I never met the guy, how could I possibly know?!
I find funny reading your comments “John Mayer is full of shit” “he should just shut the fuck up for once and for all”…have you ever met him? So why do you say that kind of shit about him? Because you read some shit on some gossip website?! really?! You know you shouldn’t believe in everything you hear…I say this from experience, and I’m guessing you must have felt it in your own skin…have you ever had someone saying stuff about you that wasn’t true? you know it is not true…you know, but everyone else seems to believe it, or choose to believe it…because unfortunately that’s human nature,,,we always want to believe in the dirt…I don’t judge him for I’ve never met him, maybe if i ever do who knows maybe i’ll say “yeah…he really is a douche bag”. From what I’ve seen from interviews he seems quite an intelligent articulate dude, with great sense of humor (that many don’t understand and take out of contest, hence many of the “shit” that come out of his mouth…people take you too seriously sometimes).
He quited twitter. So what? His tweets were actually funny…besides, what is it that offends you in the stuff he says? In case does he say anything your own friends don’t say when you’re all hangin’? I actually think that the stuff he says make him sound more like an ordinary dude…just another guy and not some too important celeb.
But each one is entitled to have an opinion, even if it is based on somebody else’s opinion…I personally like to think for myself…reason why I have a brain, to make my own conclusions and not just accept someone else’s as my own.
Despite that…and you thinking he is a piece of shit as a person. I don’t think anyone can deny that musically he is very talented…as you don’t find in many these days…he’s a gifted guitar player and an amazing lyricist, with quite good vocals too…not like Rihanna or Taylor Swift who can’t sing shit.
So give the man a break…if he’s boning JA…well good for them, at least he’s having a good time, while you’re wasting your time making mean comments about him he’s having a ball. Why don’t you go have a good time too?
PS:DeanJolie I gotta say I agree with you about the photos. He may not be drop dead gorgeous, but he is far from bad looking.It seems that you make you way to post the least flattering photos of him you can possibly find.
If you posted something like this

or this

I believe the comments would change to something like “oh…yeah, he is not that bad looking…now I see why she’s with him”
Have a good day people!
Now if we can just get him to quit music. Then publicity. Then just quit LIFE in general.
Waiting on the world to change, indeed!
Pass me the bucket please.
You’re the only one mentioning Aniston CB. If he was quitting for her he would have done it almost 2 years ago when he bothered with her. Trying to get site hits huh. If a guy curses out a site for dumped about who he’s dating it means he doesn’t want her. It’s her people planting that ish. If you can’t read that whole rant was a denial. He denied it at 2 concerts too. You’re the only one claiming this crap. A guy isn’t going to call a chick sexual napalm if he’s bothering with the other one. Get over it. That ugly chick planting lies just makes him look bad. He’s been seen with other women anyway.
@ #16 LOL!
Less of him would make the world a happier place.
He’s so fucking ugly. And the way he sings and plays guitar? He looks like he’s taking a dump while having an orgasm while experiencing some nasty stomach cramps. SO NOT SEXY.
@ irishserra: i read your comment and was curious, so i also clicked on the motley crue link, and….ick! so nasty. i mean, really nasty. dingleberries stuck to my dog’s butt nasty.
He looks pretty good in that black and white pic and I love his voice. I don’t really know what he’s like as a person so I can’t comment on that.
