John Mayer Says He’d Never Drop His Own Tracks During Bedtime
When the iconic guitarist was asked what his go‑to soundtrack is while getting cozy, he laughed and said, “I’ll let my partner pick the playlist.” He slapped the idea out of his own music shelf, despite the rumor that he might stream his own songs when the lights go out.
Why He Keeps His Boots Off the Bedroom Stage
During a casual chat on the SiriusXM Small Stage Series, the 44‑year‑old asked about playing his own records. He ruled it out cleanly: “People think I’d play mine, but I wouldn’t.” He’s more of a mood setter than a self‑advertiser.
A Swirl of Past Love Interests
From Jessica Simpson to Taylor Swift, and even Jennifer Aniston, CMA has had a string of celebrity romances under his belt. He cheekily titled himself “America’s ex‑boyfriend” because he feels many prefer the anonymity of fandom over pointing fingers at their favorite pop star.
The “Ex‑Boyfriend” One‑Liner
- Andy Cohen joked, “You’re America’s boyfriend, and I’m America’s ex‑boyfriend.”
- John responded with a tongue‑in‑cheek twist: “I’m America’s ‘I can’t,’ I’m America’s… Just, I’m JM.”
- His punch‑line? He’s not a serial hitmaker; he is “JM – the man who can’t be named.”
Word Association Madness
In a playful round with an executive producer of the Real Housewives franchise, John threw out some celebrity tags: Ed Sheeran as a hitmaker, Alicia Keys as a musician, Kanye West as an invention, and Shawn Mendes as an angel.
Andy’s Endorsement of a Friend
When Andy finally snagged his Walk of Fame star, John couldn’t hold back. “Andy is more than a friend—he’s a brilliant human, a comic genius, a loving son and brother,” he toasted. “He’s now a proud, engaged, and devoted father.”
Bottom line: when it comes to bedside tunes, the guitarist’s rule is simple— let the partner decide, skip the auto‑play button, and keep the bedroom vibes fresh and authentic.
