John Mayer takes his douchey “comedy” act to London

infphoto_1157682

These are photos of John Mayer in London, having taken his comedy/musical/douche act to England, where he appeared last night at the London Hard Rock Café. The last time we really heard anything about Mayer, he was being a racist piece of crap to a Pakistani comedian, and possibly trying to get his dirty, douchey mitts on my little Taylor Swift. Part of the reason Mayer hasn’t been in the news lately is because he went on a little holiday away from his Twitter page. This must have been difficult for Mayer, because he thinks he’s the most intellectual, sexiest, most magnificent beast out there, and in his mind, we’re all waiting for his pearls of hilarity and insouciance. Anyway, Mayer broke his self-imposed “cleanse” (seriously, he called it a “cleanse”) by tweeting these gems: “You really get to know your pants when you travel” and “The cleanse was amazing. I’m back but I want to keep some of what I’ve gained. Fewer tweets, more links… longer phrases.”

Anyway, back to the original story: Mayer was in London, he performed his douche act at the Hard Rock, and something happened… everyone thought he sucked. Seriously! Thank you, Britons, for seeing through this guy’s crap. The Press Association described his gig as a “a rambling speech as baffled fans looked on” while The Sun described his act as “John Mayer stunned fans with a set filled with tasteless jokes last night… the cocky singer… made unsavoury gags about sex, Jesus and abortion during the intimate gig for Q magazine.” Oh, you know there’s more:

JENNIFER ANISTON’S ex boyfriend JOHN MAYER stunned fans with a set filled with tasteless jokes last night.

The audience at London’s Hard Rock cafe gasped in disbelief as the cocky singer – who enjoyed a fling with the former Friends beauty last year – made unsavoury gags about sex, Jesus and abortion during the intimate gig for Q magazine.

During one of his many rambling speeches, John boasted that he could have any woman he wanted.

He said: “I could have any one of you ladies tonight. Somebody’s going to get pregnant.”

The Grammy-award winning star looked nervous as the early part of his set was greeted by a muted reaction – even comparing it to the aftermath of a bad sexual experience.

He said: “It’s a bit like you’ve just had sex, woken up and asked if your girl has had an orgasm and she says ‘No’. I’m going to take it the uncomfortable glory”, before joking: “This is going well.”

But John then added he was the master of alienating his audience and bringing them back in. And in fairness he did.

He showed off his brilliant guitar skills, tapered his foul-mouth, poked fun at his lack of success in the UK and apologised for being a ‘jackass’.

John, from Georgia, even caused ripples of laughter when a fan asked if he wanted a smoke after one of his more catchy numbers, Who Says (I Can’t Get Stoned?)

John replied: “Don’t you think I’m already sorted? I made some pot brownies the other day.”

John kicks off his Battle Studies World Tour in Amsterdam tomorrow.

I already looked, and I can’t find the “jokes” Mayer made about abortion or Jesus. Maybe the abortion joke was when he said he was going to get someone pregnant? Because, I mean, yes. Abortion does come to mind. Oh, and doesn’t Mayer look like death in these photos? Maybe it’s just jetlag. Or he could just be tired from constantly being so hilarious.

    He strikes me as being self-centered and unable to hold back a single thought that crosses his mind. John Mayer might be bi-polar. Any thoughts?

  2. Firestarter says:

    I wish he would decide to stay in London for good, and torture the British for a while.

    Oh hell, I don’t wish him on anyone, least of all the Brits, they have so many of their own losers to contend with!

    You know what bugs me about his face,… well other than his entire face? His mouth! It is just ICKY!

  3. LolaBella says:

    I think he’s a narcissist and a talented musician; sadly for him that seems to equal douche.

    Now, isit too much to request that he stay in London and we never have to hear from him again?

  4. Lee says:

    Oh John, why couldn’t you just shut the fuck up and let those of us who enjoy(ed) your music try to forget all this fame whoring? Please?

  5. GatsbyGal says:

    @Firestarter – THANK YOU. I have always thought his lips were disgusting. Like…they’ve almost no real shape to them. And they look mushy.

  6. Jay says:

    His condescending/nacissistic ways renders him useless as an Entertainer. So who hired him to appear in London Hard Rock Cafe? Did they not hear about his last bomb?
    This jerk screws up but keep getting hired any way.
    So I ask again-who is letting this horrible pig on stage when there are hundreds of true performers ten times better than him.
    Some big wig gay executive must have the hots
    for him and keep getting him jobs.

    I wonder if there’s any particular reason they had to call him “Jennifer Aniston’s ex boyfriend” right off the top? He has dated other people.

    Not to diss any Brits, but while watching some international comedy shows on Comedy Central, they (and Australians) have a different expectation of comedy than we do, I think.

    Even the professional comedians bombed or got only tepid laughter. Then a British comedian got onstage, said a bunch of stuff I thought was stupid and he had the crowd rolling with laughter.

    Not that I think Mayer is funny at all. He’d bomb here just as easily.

  8. Firestarter says:

    @GatsbyGal-Yes, mushy! That is it in a nutshell!

  9. Peach says:

    John Mayer is just a dork. He’s a dork who got famous and now thinks his tussled hair will do the work for him. But in comedy just thinking your cute doesn’t cut it. See: Dane Cook.

  10. Roma says:

    Sigh. I know, I know, but I do like him. There’s just something about his sense of humour that I actually like.

    I’ve noticed in the past weeks though that John is looking harsh; like, drug harsh. And I’m not talking pot brownies.

  11. andrea says:

    i want to say there’s something edward scissorhands about the way he looks here, but i wouldnt want to insult my johnny like that

  12. teehee says:

    Whats strange to me, is that he is actually torturing HIMSELF by being this way. He is cleary unhappy and also cleary AWARE of how shoddy his acts are– butmoreso of the fact that it hasnt brought him any closer to happiness or any necessarily dignified or honorable place or path in life. How he fools around is meaningless and selfish, and how he is so disrespectful, paranoid, and vain, is delporable.
    WHY he chooses to torture himself like this, and why he allows himself to continue in a way he knows is fruitless, and then continue to punish himself for having acted so emptily, is beyond me.


    Just sayin.

  13. Hel says:

    Snowball, I think they put he is JA’s ex because he is not well known in the UK.

    As for the comments about how his “jokes” went down, I wouldn’t pay much attention to that, as the Sun is a scumy tabloid paper that sensationalises everything.

  14. Trevor says:

    You take him way too seriously. lol He looks a mess, though.

  15. lilred says:

    Looks like a bunch of squirrels tried to make a nest in his hair.

    “He said: “It’s a bit like you’ve just had sex, woken up and asked if your girl has had an orgasm and she says ‘No’.”

    yeah … i’m sure john is used to his girls not having orgasms.

  17. I love John Mayer. I think he’s hilarious.
