John Mayer on the differences between douches, famewhores & showbiz types

fp_id3033136_mayer_john_fre_051909
No one can John Mayer away from his greatest love – himself. He loves romancing himself with a little sweet-talk via Twitter. He loves to stroke his own ego, all for the viewing and reading pleasure of anyone and everyone. So we have this latest example – John Mayer tweeting about the difference between douches, famewhores and showbiz types. Obviously, Mayer doesn’t consider himself a douche or a famewhore, but a “showbiz type”. Right. He also has some daring words for those guys who pour the hate on him for dating “their fantasy girl”.

Don’t hate John Mayer for dating beautiful women.

“I love how some dudes hate me for dating their fantasy girl, as if they were going to if I hadn’t,” the singer posted on Twitter Tuesday.

Mayer has romanced Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Simpson and Cameron Diaz, among other Hollywood babes.

Mayer goes on to explain the difference between “douches,” “famewhores” and “showbiz types.”

“‘Showbiz types’ are people who grew up talking to themselves alone in a room for hours until they found some sort of outlet,” Mayer posted on Twitter.

“Once they found that outlet, everything fell into place, except for the fact that they still never worked out why they still talk so much,” continued Mayer, who has so much to say, he once held a press conference with paparazzi after splitting from Aniston.

“So you see, though filled with deep emotional voids that can never be filled, Showbiz Types are an important part of our Nation’s tapestry,” continues Mayer.

Guess what Mayer considers himself.

“I’m a Showbiz Type. (cue penny whistle and marching drums) But I am not a douche!!” Mayer added.

Mayer’s definition of showbiz type comes remarkably close to my definition of famewhore, but I will give him the point that there’s a difference between douches and famewhores. There’s something that Mayer doesn’t want to acknowledge, though. It’s quite possible for someone to be both a famewhore and a douche. Often, I consider someone a douche for their private, interpersonal behavior. Example: the way that John Mayer broke up with Jennifer Aniston last summer, then announced the split to the paparazzi during an impromptu press conference made him both a douche (for the interpersonal relationship with Aniston) and a famewhore (for the press conference).

  3. dingaling says:

    he IS a famewhore and a douche and desperate for attention

  4. Lee says:

    Well at least he knows he talks too much.

    Well as long as he continues to talk, we will be here to make fun of whatever comes out of his mouth. Seriously I LOLed at the “nation’s tapestry.” Thanks John!

  5. kap says:

    I thought that impromptu pap conference was his response to the negative stories Aniston and her team were planting about his being cheap, etc. and frankly, it was a brilliant move on his part. The negative stories suddenly stopped as if by magic. But he is a douche and a famewhore, but then again, she picked him twice!

  6. Pufft says:

    “though filled with deep emotional voids that can never be filled”

    That comment just reaffirmed what I’ve always thought about John Mayer, i.e that he is a repressed artist with too many ideas in his head and simply hasn’t met a woman that gets him on every level.

  7. Jeane says:

    YES YOU ARE JOHN!! You are a DOUCHE!

  8. teehee says:

    Well he justed said it himself: he sat/sits around in a room by himself talking to himself for hours.
    Like we didnt know that already?
    Man this guy…at once it makes me both cringe and feel better… if you know what I mean.

  9. Chicoulina says:

    I really don’t understand what those woman see in him?If he was my ex I would be hitting my head on the wall!!
    And is it me or does his face always look kind of creepy.I like Aniston but she lost lots of points for falling for this douche!!I hope she chooses her next boyfriend wisely!!

  10. Justalark says:

    NO MORE JOHN MAYER STORIES…Please do not give this publicity-obsessed, over-rated jerk any more coverage. He nauseates me with his constant attempts to get publicity. How women continue to find him attractive is amazing to me! His enormous ego is stroked every time a journalist or blog mentions his name, so please stop reporting his every little bid for attention.

    I wonder what Jen Aniston saw in him. My roomie at Uni used to be his childhood friend when they were growing up and seemed to hold him in high esteem so it rubbed off me. Now I wonder why I did. He is cheap and tawdry and just a tad to Spencer Pratty for my liking. I am glad Jen moved on from him. Their relationship really bothered me seeing that Jen A is someone I hold in high regard.

    Sorry Mayer but look in the dictionary and you will see your picture in color under the word douche. You will also find instructions to ‘see also, fame whore, crass and crude, joke and bore. In my book, any one who dates Jess Simpson is cheap, cheap cheap. Now I lose adjectives for any one who kisses someone as gross as Perez hilton.

  12. MeowBea says:

    &……he is still a douche. No need to deny it John.

    Really Perez Hilton!! Just cuz of that alone I wouldn’t touch you w/ someone else Crotch let alone my own!!

  13. lisa says:

    No one gives a crap about your musings, John. You are a douche, live with it.

  14. the original kate says:

    is he wearing hush puppies?!

  15. drm says:

    Well JM would not the difference since there’s a little bit of all those states of being in himself…

    UGH! Go away now…

  16. diego says:

    I think he’s totally right. All those “showbiz types” are self-absorbed narcissists. Dr. Drew’s book talks about this a lot. Mayer is the only one who doesn’t pretend he’s “America’s sweetheart” or whatever. He earns more of my respect for being honest, and not a fake like his ex and the other Hollywood people.

  17. Katti says:

    I believe this famewhoring douche got it bad for Perez. It’s Perez he dream about more than Jen or any women. For sure Mayer has mental.

  18. voodoobetty says:

    Newp sorry there Johnny, you’re are definitely a douche.

  19. Le/ann says:

    He is a douche for sure. I don’t know what Jen saw in him but it brings her stats down a lot for having anything to do with that jerk.

    Douche,Douche, Douche is what you are John. An Attention-whore, “gentleman” twat.
