John Mayer Playboy Interview Text Too Raw Even for Mayer

by :

The John Mayer Playboy interview text is still getting the singer in trouble. Thanks to the John Mayer Playboy interview text, he has had to apologize for his use of the n-word, among other things. For once, Playboy is making more headlines for an interview than for naked pictures - but these kinds of headlines are nothing new for Mayer. These days, he may be best known for his off-stage antics and comments than his actual singing. Now that the John Mayer Playboy interview text has gone down in infamy, this is truer than ever.

It says something that in the Playboy interview, John Mayer's comment about his penis being a white supremacist may not be his wildest one ever. Of course, since the quote involved race, it garnered more outrage than Mayer's average comment. But his history of being raw and uncomfortably open in interviews is starting to overshadow his career.

Even before the John Mayer Playboy interview text started, he is quoted as saying 'I think the world would be better off if I stopped doing interviews.' Given the backlash of the last several days, Mayer could be considered a prophet.

Though most of the outrage is over his comments about a "n***er pass" and his "white supremacist" penis, it actually overshadowed his words about exes Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Simpson. Not much can make people forget about Mayer calling Simpson "sexual napalm" and saying he still loves Aniston. Yet his racial comments have put a new spin on his usual media firestorms.

John Mayer's Playboy interview is just one of many texts where he shocked fans and readers. In the past, he slammed the 'hatrix' of the Internet media and just had a rambling Rolling Stone cover story, which asked "why can't rock's biggest playboy shut up and enjoy?"

Mayer himself is becoming all too aware about the problem, as he said he needed to "stop being so raw in interviews" in his apology. In addition to apologizing on Twitter, he apologized again at a performance in Nashville last night, announcing that he would 'quit the media game.'

He now says that he just wants to play his guitar, but thanks to his reputation, people just don't want to see him do that anymore. Nowadays, audiences want to hear his next wild comment more than his next song - but after the John Mayer Playboy interview text came out, that might have changed a bit.

In the end, Mayer may not be able to quit the 'media game' cold turkey, at least not right away. But he may want to write another hit song before he lets himself go again - or stick to making comments about sex and not
