Did Jennifer Lawrence have dinner with John Mayer a week ago?

Jennifer Lawrence

It feels like just yesterday that I talked about People’s PR-friendly romance rollout for Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Martin. Yeah it was yesterday. They had a “super cute” date. I described JLaw’s new man as the king of elevator music. One of you clever types asked if that meant she was dating John Mayer. Very funny. And be careful what you wish for.

A new story from Hollywood Life says that the Douchebag Supreme has it bad for JLaw. That’s not surprising at all. Tons of guys have it bad for Jennifer. She’s an A-list talent who seems approachable and down-to-earth. John probably thinks he’s still got enough pull to land one of the hottest commodities in Hollywood. Does he have what it takes? John already tried to land JLaw once in 2012. She was nice to him, but hopefully she was just being polite. This new story made me laugh and then almost cry. I hope against hope that it’s not true. Did JLaw have dinner with John last week?

John has a history of dating Hollywood’s hottest ladies, and Jennifer’s his newest target! Apparently, John doesn’t care she’s dating Chris. The soulful singer is “determined to win her heart.”

Jennifer Lawrence, 24, and Chris Martin‘s romance is heating up, but John Mayer, 36, doesn’t care! “John has had a thing for Jennifer for quite some time now and he’s still trying to romance her despite her involvement with Chris,” 37, an insider tells HollywoodLife.com.

John once flirted with Jennifer at Medieval Times restaurant in L.A. on June 16, 2012! He’s always had a thing for her, despite charming other famous ladies like Katy Perry, Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Simpson and Taylor Swift.

“John is determined to win Jennifer’s heart. They had a late dinner together at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood on Aug. 29,” our source adds.

So what about Chris, who’s been romancing the Hunger Games actress?

“Chris who? That’s how John feels. It’s not like she’s wearing a ring on her finger and John will continue to try and woo her until she does. He’s not in the least bit set back by the fact that Jennifer’s been out on multiple dates with Chris,” our source concludes.

Unfortunately for John, he may have some work cut out for himself.

[From Hollywood Life]

Noooo. This can’t be true. It simply cannot! If there’s a choice between JLaw and Chris or JLaw and 7-Layer Douchebag … god. Why would a great catch like Jennifer Lawrence ever have dinner with a womanizing dude like John Mayer? This makes no sense at all. None of it makes sense. Not Chris, not John. I refuse to believe.

    Run away, Jen! Run far, far away!
    ……although if you’re just messing with John to see what you can get him to do with no intention of being with him, well I guess that’s ok! He deserves to be on the wrong end of a head game for once.

    • Michelle says:

      John Mayer must have some magic dick. What’s his secret?!

    • lisa says:

      i think everyone has a turn with mayer sooner or later

    • Sam says:

      Is there a reason why you feel the need to post the worst pictures of Jennifer Lawrence in everyone of your articles on her , it’s to the point that I stopped reading her articles and coming to this blog.

      • Brittney B says:

        If you stopped reading articles about her and coming to this blog, how did you manage to comment on an article about her on this blog?

        I also don’t see any unflattering pictures… she’s beautiful in both snaps, and the first one just seems to be a favorite on this site because it’s goofy.

      • Migdalia says:

        No I agree especially when her nude pics came out it was like everyone was using that outside pic of her in Paris? When she had that awful tan on her face. Definitely my least favorite look of hers.

    • Zwella Ingrid says:

      I love JLaw so please please don’t let this be true!

      • Serenity says:

        I know. I just can’t with her latest choice in men. Chris Martin is bad enough, but now John Douche-tastic Mayor???? Noooooooo!

      • GlimmerBunny says:

        Me too! She’s one of my fave actresses an I really really really dont want this to be true.

    • Lisa says:

      I hear he’s great in the sack and has a big d-ck. Doesn’t hurt that he can sing and is very talented. I wouldn’t kick him out of my bed, regardless of how everyone else views him. Its sad that a lot of the off the cuff things he says get churned through the various media channels, taken in and out of context and people have learned to look at him as a douchebag, but he wasn’t always portrayed that way until he became really famous. Lets face it, even the women he dated have not been the brightest bulbs in the box, so why is only he the one to blame for their relationships not working out? Oh, and he’s a guitar master! Skills are undeniable.

      • homegrrrl says:

        HIs comments weren’t “taken out of context”, they were racial slurs. He said that while he enjoyed his black fans and bluesy musical influences, “my dick is david duke”, indicating he’s not turned on by people of color. Unforgivable, because that is probably a lyric he’d been working on and thought it would be hilariousness in an interview. Worse than YUCK. Any woman who gets with him is an illiterate fool.

    • homegrrrl says:

      He must be a Svengali mind controller, because otherwise JM looks like a walking petri dish of STDs.

  2. t.fanty says:

    I will say this for her: she likes her men crazy-eyed.

  3. doofus says:

    don’t buy it. I think she’s way too smart to fall for his “charms”.

  4. Ollyholly says:

    This is total fiction.

  5. Stacie says:

    I kind of like this pairing…

    *runs away before tomatoes are thrown*

  6. Kiddo says:

    The hell is he wearing? Grandma kimono house lounging attire, with a kitty? Maybe he was perfect for Swift.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      I don’t see the kitty. But he’s wearing a tie as a belt, which they showed two years ago in Talbots catalog, so that’s pretty … Something, I’m not sure what.

    • Kosmos says:

      He’s always got on some kind of grossly put together clothing. He basically has no style sense. Even if you’re doing boho, you have to do it kind of right, but John continually does it oddly. About Lawrence, I really hope this isn’t true, that she might be entertaining even slight thoughts of dating this guy. At this point, I find Mayer just “creepy,” way too creepy to date. Actually…embarrassing to date!! If she goes out with him, I’m kind of going to wonder what happened to her common sense? I don’t even find him attractive, especially not after what we now know about him. Too bad, because he does have a lot of talent in the music world, but is definitely a HUGE loser in the romantic area.

  7. Anna says:

    I would much rather Jennifer be with Chris instead of her being with a racist.

  8. L says:

    Oh I’d take Chris Martin over John Mayer any day of the week. When the inevitable breakup happens, Martin at least seems to treat his former partners with respect AND doesn’t give horrible racist interviews.

    • Kiddo says:

      I keep seeing these comments on racist comments. What did he say?

      • Colu says:

        Kiddo, they’re talking about the “David Duke dick” comments from an interview with Rolling Stone. The same interview that he described Jessica Simpson as “Sexual Napalm.”

      • Kiddo says:

        I’m not sure what was intended with that comment. I know Duke was in the KKK, but what was the context? I guess with Mayer I hit ‘secure empty trash’ and he was gone from my memory.

      • Marianne says:

        I think it was something about how he only finds white girls attractive? Or maybe he only sleeps with white girls? I don’t remember exactly.

      • M.A.F. says:

        I’m lost as well. “David Duke dick” is code word for the KKK?

      • maybeiamcrazy says:

        He said he never slept with a black girl and he is not attracted to them. And likened his dick to David Duke and his heart to Benetton commercial if I remember correctly. The whole interview was a mess really, with him trash talking his ex-girlfriends and this.

      • Kiddo says:

        Thanks @maybeiamcrazy. And all the black women can collectively sigh in relief.

      • Lady Macbeth says:

        @Kiddo

        Yep, they are probably throwing a party right now.

      • Observer says:

        He also used the N word…It’s funny because I never knew who John Mayer was until that interview. I knew the song “something, something is a wonderland” from the radio but I didn’t know the singers name, just that I didn’t like the sound of his voice (too whiney and just…not good).
        The fact that the interviewer asked if “black women throw themselves at you” was weird because as a black woman I had never heard of him before and I don’t think we were ever his fan base (??). It seemed almost deliberate because his answer was really soundbitey. I remember thinking afterwards “What black woman hurt you”? Also, to me, he is physically unattractive and I don’t know what women see him, but that’s just me.
        Another funny thing, the David Duke comment was ironic seeing as that never stopped racists from having sex with and/or raping black women.
        And John Mayer is jewish…which makes this whole thing even weirder.

      • Zwella Ingrid says:

        That Rolling Stone interview was hideous. I canceled my subscription (which was a free one to begin with) after reading that Mayer interview.

    • Courtney says:

      Neither for me, please.

    • Sozual says:

      All those statements came out of his Playboy interview.

  9. Blarg Smith says:

    Ok. I’m not going to implode just yet. I mean, the bright side is that it could be WORSE than Chris Martin, right? This actually makes a Chris Martin hook up…tolerable.

  10. maybeiamcrazy says:

    The girl LOVES elavator music huh?

  11. ran says:

    This fanfiction.

  12. Size Does Matter says:

    An abundance of Jennifers. Apparently John has a type.

  13. Abbott says:

    She just needs a pinky ring picnic with Robin Thicke and she’s got Douche Canoe BINGO.

  14. Liz says:

    The tabs must be desperate to find out who she’s seeing if they have resorted to doing weak link stories.

    • Helo says:

      @Liz: Ding, Ding, Ding!….You are correct!, you win the prize!.

      Exactly what I think it’s all about, they don’t know who the hell Jennifer Lawrence is seeing and so, in the grand tradition of HL, they will come up with their own story. No need to worry, Bedhead….it’s just typical HL fan fiction B.S. I mean, Lawrence had dinner with JM but there are no tweets, photos, etc.,….it never happened.

  15. Ben Dover says:

    Keep dreaming, John!

  16. mia girl says:

    Is this some kind of Jedi Mind Trick, reverse psychology PR move?
    Like, at first most were all “don’t be with Martin!” And yet when confronted with the Mayer possibility it’s more like “please be with Martin!”

    Like the lesser of two lessers?!

  17. don't kill me i'm french says:

    Be true please!
    (I don’t know how JLaw can be seen like a nice nice woman when i watch this pic with Hermione.)

  18. Helo says:

    Well, because the two (Lawrence and Watson) are actually good friends. Watson was one of the first to stand up for Lawrence as well as the other women whose photos were stolen. It’s harmless, it’s just kidding around, Watson was pictured laughing it off.

    • Maria says:

      i dont think they are good friends. they probably like each other and Emma could relate because she also is at danger of someone hacking her. good friends tend to hang out more often. Emma has never been nominated for awards, so they also rarely meet professionally.

    • Milla B. says:

      I can be wrong but I read somewhere that this was the first time they met each other.

  19. Pager90 says:

    I have a feeling in three or four years, the JLAW we first came to know will be history and people will be scratching their heads about her, going WTF happened!?

  20. Luciana says:

    She is the hottest commodity in Hollywood right now , plus she’s single so many stories about her personal and romantic life will be heard until she settles for someone. Let’s pray she wont’ pick John Mayer. Chris Martin is also kind of creepy.

    • maybeiamcrazy says:

      It is so weird that the hottest commodity in Hollywood might have actually reduce his choices to John Mayer and Chris Martin.

      • Luciana says:

        Weird taste in men. She was also kind of linked back in 2013 to Bradley Cooper.

      • Liv says:

        So true. She’s the most wanted girl right now, I mean look at these losers trying to get her intention. But there must be other younger interesting men out there. I can’t believe she’s choosing Martin or Mayer – ugh!

  21. lucy2 says:

    Ugh I hope there’s zero truth to that. He has gotten worse and worse over time, and does not treat women well.

  22. InvaderTak says:

    Medieval times? What? Has her pr machine gone nuts?

  23. Marlene says:

    She’s young. We’ve all dated douchebags, she will get it out of her system.

  24. Jules says:

    @Pager90: Nope, disagree. Jennifer Lawrence has been handling her career very well for someone so young…I think she will continue to do so in the coming years.

    The way that she disappears when not promoting reminds me of how the movie stars used to be…it’s one of the things I like about her.

    • Pager90 says:

      I was sort of joking but I was More referring to her personal life in the future.

      She’s an excellent actress and quite successful, but I am just beginning to wonder how smart she is when it comes to picking guys for herself? I really don’t know much about her except her films and her awards.

  25. Maria says:

    im not buying that story. but why do we assume that Jlaw has great taste in men? i dont understand it. not even taking into account that 99% of actresses have the ability to always pick the worst kind of guy. just generally, we dont really know Jlaw. if she is goofy and funy, how does that translate making smart life choices?

    also being intelligent and educated does not mean that you are intelligent in relationship matters. often its the contrary. ive seen it a lot of times. ultra smart people being absolutely clueless in those things.

    • Pager90 says:

      Exactly! That’s kinda what I was thinking too.

      Being a excellent actress and talented in the art of acting, does not mean that JLAW is intelligent in other areas,such as picking men for herself.
      Just saying.

  26. Leah says:

    Poor Jen, all ageing kings of elevator music are after her. Whose next? Adam Levine?

  27. Adrien says:

    Tehehe. From Elevator music King to Walmart lawn and garden section background music King. Hasn’t Jen suffered enough?

  28. Bridget says:

    Dating John Mayer is up there as one of the Classic Blunders now.

  29. Jules says:

    I would love if after all the speculation horse sh-t, that it was revealed that Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson have actually been dating all these months. I can’t help it…they are so cute together! LOL!.

    • Migdalia says:

      I think that whole friendship is where Josh is being kept in the Friendzone, but I would really have bought that relationship faster than Chris Martin. I’m not hating on either men, but the reasoning for JL and NH for breaking up was due to lack of time and distance yet she’s dating someone who spends most his time still in Britain and is currently doing shows over there? I know he has his kids here, but still.

  30. INeedANap says:

    GIRL. Look, let’s cross the gossip streams – how about Chris Evans? Dude is single (that Sandy B rumor amounted to nothing I think?) and probably needs someone who can loosen him up, plus he’s miles better than a divorced father of two and Douche King. Oy vey.

  31. Nicole says:

    Obviously, you’d have to take a bunch of prescription pills after – some likely for the rest of your life – but the dude is clearly hot. He’s tall. He looks like he’s packing heat (you know damn well he’s packing heat). He has nice features and good hair. He looks like he’d smell like a dude without being a smelly dude. Wear a condom, ladies. And don’t kiss him on the mouth.

  32. Diana B says:

    I’m loving the mental breakdowns every time a new posible suitor comes to light. She won’t be able to get it right in the eyes of her fans and the epic meltdowns are so entertaining.

  33. Alex says:

    In other news- has anybody seen First trailer for Serena? No Wonder it take so much time releasing it… Lawrence again gives cringeworthy accent and again looks Too Young for Her role. Seems like AH all over again. Though in comparison her acting in AH may turn out better, Lol.

    • Luciana says:

      True! I didn’t see your comment before. I think she has been miscasted lately. AH, Serena, the upcoming Joy.

      • whatsmyname? says:

        @Alex
        If I remember correctly it’s Bradley that is to old for HIS part not her that is young, but I could be thinking of another book/movie. And accent? Didn’t hear any.

    • mia girl says:

      Huh…the only crappy accent I heard was Coopers’.
      Unless he playing a guy who “pretends” to be English for only PART of the film, I’m not sure what is going on there.

      In fact, the only thing that looked fairly decent to me was Lawrence. Funny how we had opposite reactions.

      But overall we can agree that it does look like a trailer trying to mask a mess of a movie.

      • Jules says:

        @Mila Girl: I agree, I thought that Cooper seemed iffy and that Jennifer Lawrence seemed exactly as I pictured Serena when I read the book…which is terrific by the way. Serena is 27 at the start of the story, Lawrence was 21 when she filmed it, turned 22 that August (just finished reading about this film online, LOL!…did my research).

        Anyway, a 21 year old playing a 27 year old isn’t really a stretch. I thought the trailer looked very melodramatic which isn’t how the story reads but, it looks beautifully shot and a pretty faithful adaptation.

    • Dany says:

      the trailer is so bad. The movie looks cringeworthy!
      Bradley sounds funny. Jen is miscast, she looks way too young and babyfaced with that hairstyle and costumes.

    • sigh((s)) says:

      The trailer looks like crap. Lots of miscasting there. No chemistry. And when you think that the trailer is usually the best parts of the movie….. Yikes!

    • maybeiamcrazy says:

      The trailer is terrible. Susannah Bier is an excellent director and BC and JL proved that they have an amazing chemistry. It is supposed to work but it doesn’t.

    • GlimmerBunny says:

      I personally think it looks pretty good, I can’t wait to see it (and to use my “pretentious card” I work as a movie critic so I should be able to tell a good movie from a bad one, non?) I love Susanne Bier and the Bradlifer pairing has fantastic chemistry.

  34. Luciana says:

    Off topic, have you seen Serena’s trailer? I’m not feeling it.

  35. Jules says:

    I just watched the Serena trailer…there is no accent coming from Lawrence. I detected an accent coming from Cooper, because his character is supposed to hail from Boston. I loved her performance in AH, btw. I am really excited for Mockingjay…yay that the trailer debuts on Monday!.

  36. Dana says:

    Honestly I’d rather Jen to be with Bradley they are amazing together

  37. Happy21 says:

    I can see JLaw laughing about what a player the Douche Supreme is behind his back so I’m really confident these rumours are just that – rumours. I don’t like her with Chris Martin either. Jeez, it’s just such an odd pairing. Ew, he was married to GOOP and for that I can’t ever take him seriously.

  38. Nympha says:

    JENNIFER HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?
    I mean, she can have almost anyone. And THIS and Chris Martin is what she wants? Ugh.
    I refuse to believe any of this for the sake of my sanity.

  39. whatsmyname? says:

    Why is every story about her no matter where it comes from taken as truth? Hollywoodlife REALLY? This piece of fiction.

  40. Migdalia says:

    I find it amazing that Jennifer and Chris are having all these public dates together in the Hamptons, NYC and Beverly Hills and yet not one twitter, or tumblr sighting nor any pictures. You’ve got to be kidding me. I don’t think Nick calls the papparazzi but during her relationship with him they would get photographed from fans or the papparazzi a lot along with sighting accounts on social media. I’m still saying “pics or it isn’t true”. She’s good at hiding (out of LA), but not that good.

  41. lunchcoma says:

    Ew. I don’t get the attraction to Chris Martin, but I can see how a woman who was into him could talk herself into it. He’s a good father, the problems during his marriage were specific to that relationship and may not indicate a general pattern, and he’s handling his breakup fairly gracefully. Let’s put it this way – if my friend were dating his non-famous equivalent, I’d give her a bit of a side eye but wouldn’t say anything.

    Mayer has treated a long series of women badly and then blabbed about it later, so it’s hard for me to see a woman going into the relationship without being fully aware of what she was getting.

    • Erinn says:

      Yeah, exactly. Despite how much everyone mocks him, he’s really not that awful. Side eye is plenty, I think.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      Not me, I would sound the don’t get involved in the divorce alarm. Relationships are hard enough between two people, two people and the recent ex is a headache waiting to happen, famous or not.

  42. Alex says:

    Ok why is everyone taking this as fact? And from HL? Isn’t that below tabloids on the totem pole? Seriously I doubt she went out with JM or CM. the CM rumors are ones that have been around for the last month and NO pap shots at all? Yet CM gets photographed being uncoupled with Goop a few weeks ago and Jen gets photographed in NYC…but none together. They have dinner in Bev Hills and not one tweet about them being spotted. Yea not buying it. This is solely PR at this point. It makes CM look good (esp since this came out right after Goops new relationship) and JLaw look desirable. The Bradley rumors were also fake but look how long those went on before they both shot them down at a press line. It’s good PR.
    And I agree with everyone saying Serena looks bad. She needs to stop playing roles that are made for people twice her age. And I say this as a huge fan of JLaw. But she can do a role meant for a 20 yr old that is stellar. She just needs to say no to David O Russel and Harvey Winstein. But she feels like they made her so I guess she feels obligated. Cut the cord Jen

    • Zwella Ingrid says:

      As much as I like her I thought she looked too young for the part in AH too. I feel really disloyal saying it…

    • Jules says:

      @Alex: I would love to see Jennifer Lawrence work with Debra Granik again as Lawrence was just fantastic in Winters Bone. I also love her performances in Russell’s films because after Winters Bone and THG, Lawrence proved her range.

      Having said that, there are other directors out there that I would love to see Lawrence work with like the Cohen brothers, Paul Thomas Anderson, Tarantino, Jane Campion, Lisa Choldanko (sp.?). I bet Lawrence will soon enough.

      • Alex says:

        @Zwella A lot of her fans feel the same way actually. You are not alone in saying that. I just think it means we want the best for her career. I don’t want her pigeonholed this early
        @Jules Yea I LOVE Winters Bone and I love SLP and AH (at least Jen’s role in AH) but she keeps acting in these aged roles. But I’m ready for her to do something else and not be obligated to do every DOR movie. She wasn’t even supposed to be in AH (she was supposed to be on break) but DOR called and she jumped *sigh*. Plus DOR is a major douchebag so I don’t like lovely people like Amy Adams or JLaw being associated with him.

        But yea I’m hoping that she continues to do a large range of movies. I find her super versatile. But I would love to see her do another indie like Winters Bone. I just worry that this early she is going to pigeonhole her career by doing so many Oscar bait movies

  43. Hannah says:

    Blimey with choices like Martin and Mayer I’m actually going to start rooting for jailbird Cooper.

  44. noway says:

    Girls why John Mayer? He sound like a do**&bag before, during and after the “relationship.” I don’t care how good he is in the sack, there had to be somebody better. Wise up Hollywood starlets stay clear.

  45. Jess says:

    I still can’t believe people think Jen’s team would use Chris as PR relationship. They are obviously real.

    • Alex says:

      Jen’s team never comments on her relationships in general. They let the media speculate hence the Bradley Cooper rumors, the Liam Hemsworth rumors, etc. She never shoots them down through a publicist but she will in interviews. I mean she barely talked about her relationship with Hoult and they were together for 4 years.
      I think CM is using her as PR. The timing was suspect as it came out right after Goop went public with her relationship with Brad.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      How are they “obviously real”? I’m asking seriously, what evidence is there other than tabloid speculation? None.

  46. jojo says:

    I honestly cannot see anything that appealing about her. What, exactly, makes her so special?
    I am beginning to think that this is a HUGE media/hollywood drive to replace the the older media darlings Aniston and Jolie.

    Both Aniston and Jolie are over saturated in the media nowadays and getting older. So now they have these younger face to push into the limelight, thats a bit edgy/different. I really cannot see the appeal of her over most other actresses. She’s had one or two decent roles and won an oscar, but thats mostly luck nowadays, along with politics mixed in rather than acting talent. She’s no Hunt or Streep in terms of acting ability, and lookwise she’s above average for normal folk, but really average for the hollywood scene. There are probably 2-3 women on your street that look similar and/or better than her.

    What the heck is her appeal to you folks? Not trying to be mean, i have nothing against her, but all this ‘she’s out of his league…she’s too good for him..she’s so awesome…etc’ media articles for every guy she glances at really irk me.

    Mind as well start calling her Aniston part II.

    • Janet says:

      I don’t see her appeal either. However, I have nothing against her. But if she hooks up with that slime ball, she deserves whatever she gets.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      She’s not a favorite of mine but my husband is bananas for her. She has an “it” factor, you and I may not see it, but other people sure do.

    • Nina says:

      She’s very talented, or at least I thought she was, in winters bone. Plus she’s a breath of really fresh air – funny wacky and seemingly real. I think she’s also quite pretty, with an actual body and not just bones. but I think it’s her personality and talent that give her the IT factor.

    • Pager90 says:

      I don’t really see the appeal either, but she is a excellent actress in the right roles and she looks smashing in gowns, but other than that, I don’t get the rabid fan worship of her…but she must have something the way fans adore her. ( But I just don’t see it. )
      But Jen seems nice enough,although her jokes and off the cuff comments sometime seem childish, but she’s just young yet , so…

  47. Rhiley says:

    He dresses like Taylor Swift’s/Johnny Depp’s love child.

  48. Goodnight says:

    Seems to me he’s a douche who attracts douchey women. No actual nice, lovely, down to earth woman with brains would fail to see through his bullshit.

  49. Kimberly says:

    I doubt she’s interested in him………but I will believe that he’s very interested in her.
    He’s a fame whore so……he likes to collect those famous chicks with his ‘dong magic’ and dump them after.
    After singing and playing that guitar, that’s one of his hobbies LOL.

    I think he wants another famous one on his……… ‘been there done that list.’
