In Touch: John Mayer & Jennifer Aniston’s secretly hooking up

wenn2305415
We’re prefacing this story with the fact that it’s from In Touch, because you know that means that it falls somewhere between complete bunk and hearsay. In Touch adds some details that give this story some legitimacy, but they also had a date and details of a supposed meeting last November where Angelina Jolie announced a pregnancy to producers of her film Salt, and we know that never happened.

According to In Touch, John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston are still hooking up secretly, and John’s other on-again booty call, Jessica Simpson, doesn’t know about it. All Aniston has to do, they say, is crook her finger and Mayer will drop Simpson again (and probably get tired of Aniston in a few days once she’s fully available to him).

As In Touch recently reported, Jessica [Simpson] has been sneaking around with John [Mayer] ever since getting dumped by Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo just a day before her 29th birthday in July. “John told Jessica that she’s his soulmate,” an insider says, “and she fell for it.”

But little does she know that John, 31… has his eyes on another prize – another ex, Jennifer Aniston…

According to a source, John has been secretly seeing Jen – and during the weekend of September 5, “they spent the night together after Jen returned to LA, just before John took off to New York. It was a totally private date at the spur of the moment.”

While the rendezvous may have been spontaneous, John’s plan to win Jen over again has been carefully crafted. “He’s desperate to get back with her. He wants her more than ever,” says a pal. In addition to telling Jen, 40, that he loves her and he was a fool, Jon’s exploiting her weakness and promising that he wants to have babies with her…

While Jen contemplates getting back together with John, Jessica could be setting herself up for a heartbreak if she continues seeing him. “He doesn’t see anything more than sex in the relationship,” says the insider. “The second Jen says she’s ‘in,’ he’ll drop Jessica and be gone.”

[From In Touch, print edition, September 28, 2009]

As Kaiser has pointed out a few times, John was quick to deny dating Kristin Cavallari but hasn’t said a darn thing about a renewed relationship with Jessica Simpson. That’s not like him not to run his mouth off and twitter incessantly about something, and I bet he is seeing her again on the sly. It sounds like him to try and win Aniston back again too, but it’s not like he would be pining for either of them if this is true – he just wants to know that he can have them again if he wants. Once the deal is sealed he quickly loses interest.

Maybe the very tragic loss of Jessica’s dog will help her re-evaluate her life and cut Mayer out of it for good. She doesn’t deserve to be anyone’s booty call if she expects more out of a relationship. I also hope that Aniston has better sense than that, but like the characters she plays in those romcoms she seems a little foolish in love. Hopefully she’s not this foolish, and this story is fiction.

    I’d like to think this isn’t true, and that Aniston is a smarter woman than this.

  2. Firestarter says:

    Well, if InTouch says it, it has to be true, oh yeah, except when it is about the Jolie-Pitts and then they are lie tellers!

  3. Rose says:

    I don’t believe this, In Touch is such a rag.

  4. atticus says:

    Prefacing with “I think this is all cr@p”…if it were true that JA was hooking up with JM, I highly doubt JA would get hurt. I think she’s a lot more of a player than people think she is, she’s always painted as the “lonely girl, desperate for love” but I think she’s 100% in control and plays JM as much as he plays anyone.

  5. Nev says:

    I don’t believe one word out-of-Touch print but what convenient pr timing for Aniston. Seriously can she open one movie without man drama? If I were Jen’s people I would deny this right away.
    This dude is a douche bag and I would like to think she can do better than this dirt bag but after all she is desperate and may be she can’t do any better.

  6. cutie says:

    he did deny on twitter he’s back with jess and his friends did it too to ted casablanca and jess’s rep did the same at gossipcop. as for the jennifer aniston part i don’t know, it doesn’t interest me.

  7. Praise St. Angie! says:

    “she is desperate and maybe she can’t do any better”?

    simply because she’s (as far as we know) not dating anybody right now, that means that she’s “desperate”? does that mean that every woman who is single is “desperate”?

    are we living in 1950?!

  8. wtf?! says:

    You guys sound desperate for a John and Jessica hook up. He denied her a month ago on twitter, before he denied Kristin Cavalari. I guess he just doesn’t want to do this every week? Get over this crap. Jessica was traveling all around after he denied it once. After that, they couln’t have seen each other at all. And Jennifer is in LA while he’s in NY. Unlikely as well. But the Jessica is just desperate from you guys – every single post you repeat this crap that he hasn’t denied when he did it long ago.

  9. susy says:

    Don’t bring Jess into this mess, her rep said the story is BS and so did Mayer’s. She’s very well on her own right now, she wouldn’t go back to him again.

  10. Firestarter says:

    Nev- How do you KNOW she is desperate? Have you spoken with her recently and that is what she said?

  11. Howie says:

    Yeah, I’m sure Jennifer Aniston, with her insanely hot body and millions of dollars, is SO desperate. NO guy would want her (insert eye roll).

  12. alex says:

    Even though I don’t like Aniston. I don’t think she will go back there. IT is full of sh*t

  13. Hieronymus Grex says:

    He’s a little man-whore. The other village bike of Hollywood. John and Kate Hudson were tailor made for each other.

  14. Cheyenne says:

    How many ways can you say “bullshit”?

  15. Nev says:

    I don’t see her as desperate because she is single. What’s desperate is the way she will stand up and be proud of what & where she is in life.
    As I said before, why can’t Jen’s people deny this junk right away? Why did/do G Butler and B Cooper have to put out a denial statement. Where is Jen’s denial about this douche bag?
    Seems Jen want these little rumors floating around. We all know Jen has a mega pr team why do it take them so long to give a statment.
    Again I would have more respect for Jen if she stood on her own two feet.
    She don’t need a man to make her career. She should cut the fans lose that want her to find a man and have babies if she don’t want that for her life right now but will she please stand up
    and show some strenght.
    If Mayer is using her I would like to see a statement from her team saying this is not true.
    Otherwise i have to think she wants this attention and that is desperate.

  16. Nev says:

    Oh and Firestarter action speak louder than words. Have a good day.

  17. DD says:

    In Touch is having a rather chauvinistic streak in their reporting lately. Is this the same magazine reporting that Jolie is starving herself for Brad’s attention as well?

    Okay we get it In Touch. Women are pathetic, undesireable and weak creatures hoping and praying for any man to find us desireable regardless of the humiliation and destruction it causes us.

  18. Nev says:

    Don’t worry about the time. I will find a bench to sit on.

  19. Melissa says:

    Not that I’d believe InTouch, but Mayer is such a douche and I don’t know how he keeps pulling these great women in…I hope they are using protection.

  20. Firestarter says:

    “I don’t see her as desperate because she is single. What’s desperate is the way she will stand up and be proud of what & where she is in life.”

    Nev- Sorry you take such offense at a comment, but you make no sense whatsoever in anything you say about her being desperate. Why in the heck shouldn’t she be proud of where she is in life and what she has done? What is so wrong with dating, being a moderately successful actress and living life on your own terms. Are you saying that only people in relationships with children should be proud of themselves? What has Aniston got to be ashamed of exactly? Being single? Being a popular actress (whether you or anyone else likes her, she seems to stay employed) making her own money? Doing whatever the hell it is she wants because she is free from ties to a man or children? I just do not get what is so bad about her liking where she is at in life. It would be desperate if she were complaining about her life and hating what she does.

    Also, why does she have to deny or confirm any and all ridiculous crap that is written about her? She owes no one any explainations, confirmations or denials about her life. No matter what she or her “pr” team would say, would satisfy the gossips and the people who dislike her, so what is the point?

  21. Nev says:

    B Cooper and G Butler sure found the need to deny Jen which made her look pathetic.

  22. wow says:

    Jenn gets such a bad dating rap. I doubt this is true either.

  23. Both are annoying says:

    They’re both losers. She already looks ridic for dating John Mayer and then for that pr charade. And it’s true how Bradley Cooper and others’ intense need to deny dating her made her look pathetic. It’s also really pathetic how some interviewers go way way overboard about how everyone has a crush on her etc. It’s so patronizing and like they feel sorry for her. What’s to feel sorry for. She’s got loads of money, a comfortable life, privilege, and far more opportnities than her talent would warrant. More people would root for her if she weren’t so freaking angry and ungrateful all the time. People are struggling to stay afloat, and this unappreciative woman can’t stop whining about gossip magazines and acts like all the success was her birthright.

  24. Cinderella says:

    If Jen is using him for booty calls, I hope she’s making him triple-wrap it. I’d hate to see his penis under a microscope. Ewww!

  25. Laura says:

    Is the interview she did with Chelsea Lately going to be written about today?

  26. Sani says:

    Both are annoying: you hit the nail right on the head. I use to like her but she’s starting to turn.
    I don’t believe this story either.
    I hate that picture. She looks fat and it’s so obvious they do not have chemistry.
    Mayer is a disgusting douche bloak and JA should not want her name mention in the same sentence as his.

  27. Cheyenne says:

    Cinderella: If Jen is using him for booty calls, I hope she’s making him triple-wrap it.
    ***********************************************

    Guy’s a walking petri dish. I wouldn’t touch that with triple-thick rubber gloves and a spray can of disinfectant. You can’t blame B. Cooper or Gerard whatshisface for not wanting to follow that up.

  28. jann says:

    the woman is desperate, she dated him twice, now i ask you, what sane woman, remember the word (sane)would do that? where are her defenders?

  29. HashBrowns says:

    What sane woman would believe what she reads in a tabloid?

    What sane woman would respond to every single, solitary thing said about her in a tabloid?

    It’s a waste of time.

  30. HashBrowns says:

    Weird…

  31. Laura says:

    Sigh. There goes Cheyenne “I don’t hate her, hon — there’s not enough there to hate.” making yet ANOTHER snide remark on another JA post.

    I’m guessing you’ve mustered enough hate if you do this EVERY TIME. Gerard Butler COULDN’T have contracted anything because he doesn’t have a history of womanizing.

  32. TwinkleToes says:

    If Jennifer was a true beauty she would be beating decent guys off with a stick. I’m sorry but men DO think about what their children are going to look like. It’s really the root of her problem that big jaw and chin. I know it sounds mean but it’s true, so all the money in the world doesn’t matter if you don’t have the gene pool. We’ve all known the beauty who sold out to the rich ugly guy and their kids were just ugly.

    Shannon Tweed got lucky with her kids and Gene Simmons. She still sold out her gene pool and took the risk.

    Brad marrying Jennifer was a fluke, deep down I don’t think he wanted kids with her but he did with Angelina.

    Even with all her money, a decent guy is gonna go after a beauty who doesn’t have any money because you just CAN’T buy a good gene pool. I know it sounds mean but Jessica S. and Jen have dated John Mayer or have been linked to him. A true beauty just would never let Mayer past “hello”. Yes, Jessica had a nose job very early on.

  33. Cheyenne says:

    Laura: Gerard Butler COULDN’T have contracted anything because he doesn’t have a history of womanizing.
    **************************************************

    BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Oh honey, excuse me while I pick myself up off the floor. Thanks for giving me the best laugh I’ve had all week.

    I’m so sorry to bust your bubble, chica, but Gerry is known all over tinseltown as being an inveterate womanizer. He’ll stick it into anything that’s female and breathing.

  34. Cheyenne says:

    TwinkleToes: I’m sorry but men DO think about what their children are going to look like. It’s really the root of her problem that big jaw and chin.
    *******************************************

    Oh come on, now that is just mean. Reese Witherspoon has a chin that could poke holes in a tin can and it didn’t stop her from having two babies.

    Aniston’s problem is she comes across as desperate and needy and clingy. It’s her attitude that scares the guys off, not her chin.

  35. Laura says:

    @Cheyenne.

    I was being sarcastic. I forget that sarcasm doesn’t translate well online. I was countering what you said. Gerard would not worry about “not wanting to follow that up” because he is a manwhore.

    I know about Gerard. EVERYONE knows about Gerard.

  36. lisa says:

    I don’t think it is Jennifer’s attitude completely.. I think it is the baggage that she comes with.. Any man involved with her is going to have to deal with being compared to her past
    relationships. That man will be looked at as the father of her “children”.. He will have to date her, then marry or impregnate her in a matter of weeks. No matter how nice, friendly, or the body. .most men don’t want to deal with that kind of load. They want to date a woman without all the media and fan attention.. that is not going to happen with Jennifer. I will admit that I am not a fan and my opinion may be biased, but I really think if she had just not played the blame game and enjoyed.. yes enjoyed the sympathy that people gave her then she would not be seen as a loser 5+years later.. She has had relationships, but if you look at them none seemed like the real deal. Vince was a rebound (so not her type).. Paul (PR/Smart water) John (younger.. kind of a take that ****).. so I have yet to see her with someone that seems of substance. She has a lot of money and is in good shape.. but that does not mean you are happy. Most people don’t have her money and body and are quite happy.. money is not the answer. I think (jmo) that she wants what she had and let go. I think we all do that. Loose something and wished we had tried harder. But who knows but her. She just does not act like a Drew, Kate, Cameron.. happy and single. Owning it.. empowered by it. Iy could be the way the media paints or , or her fans, or the people who don’t like her. Point is that is how she is viewed. Now her challenge is to paint herself in a different light. if she can.

  37. Laura says:

    @Lisa

    I really do understand what you’re saying. She really does have a lot of baggage and most men probably don’t want that. But to compare her to Kate and Cameron? I think that’s stretching it. Neither of them were in a relationship for 7 years, 5 of which were spent COMPLETELY in the public eye and neither of them were always called “Hollywood Royalty” or “It Couple” or “Golden Couple” I mean, when Brad Pitt guest starred on Friends, biggest effin deal in the world!

    Their relationship was very much part of their career and how they marketed themselves. And neither of them had to deal with the tabloid explosion of Brangelina. Neither Cameron nor Kate’s break-ups had all the speculation: “did he cheat, did she not want children, whose fault was it, IS SHE PREGNANT??” Cameron hasn’t even been married! And I wouldn’t use Kate Hudson as a good example for relationships. The fact that she moves so fast with men undoubtedly affects her son (we hear stories upon stories about how unhappy Goldie Hawn is) and not to mention the unhealthy relationship with Owen Wilson (suicide, anyone?)

  38. 4Real says:

    Ew! The shallow couple.

  39. nimbus says:

    I cant get over how little you actually bring to light here. I think that everyones said the same thing that youve said over and over again. Dont you think its time for something more?
