Heads roll after Jessica’s fake John Mayer tabloid romance


Both TMZ and RadarOnline claim to have the exclusive that Jessica Simpson’s publicist got axed for trying to make a mountain out of makeout session. Rob Shuter, Jessica and Ashlee’s publicist, got fired for spreading the fake news that Jessica and John Mayer were a major item just in time for the release of her latest album:

How shady is Rob Shuter? So shady that even Joe Simpson doesn’t want to do business with him anymore. A well-placed source tells Radar Simpson fired Shuter as the publicist for his daughters Jessica and Ashlee earlier today. The axing comes after Shuter’s attempt to turn a minor fling between Jessica Simpson and singer John Mayer into a publicity coup backfired in his face: After People and Us put the story on their covers, Mayer dropped hints it was a fabrication, and Jessica was left to disavow her “love” on The View. The incident put further strain on Shuter’s already-vexed relationship with Jessica’s label, Epic Records.

For his part, Mayer is doing his best to distance himself from the whole non-affair. He is said to have called Jessica “desperate.” He also gave a bizarre interview to Rolling Stone, in which he got high in front of the reporter, said he’d like to see a couple have sex in person, and called his penis “Dominican” because it had such a great batting record.

    Ok, it was a desperate move–this girl is surrounded by idiots. That being said, John Mayer is a loser and a jerk. He could have handled it better. And who’s the winner here? Nick! Who would have thought…
