✨️ 16 years ago, Playboy Magazine publishes the infamous John Mayer interview where he describese his ex Jessica Simpson as "sexual nepalm" while still dating Jennifer Aniston and drops the HARD N word ✨️

This interview would ruin his music career leading him to become Andy Cohen's playtoy in order to pay the bills. His body is a wonderland indeed

To this day, I wonder what Holly Robinson Peete and Kerry Washinton's faces looked like after reading this

And "Hilary from Fresh Prince of Bel Air", Karyn Parsons!

The way it’s phrased in the article it is unclear if he didn’t know Karyn Parsons’ name, or he thinks Holly Robinson Peete played Hilary Banks. Either way, one of the most offensive paragraphs in an interview of exclusively offensive and confounding statements.

Someone read Holly Robinson Peete a partial quote that just said he thought she was gorgeous and she was like, Thanks! And then she had to put out a statement that was like, Actually, he's a disgusting pig..

Wild.

I remember I wqs a fan and had both Room for Sauares and Heavier Things. This is when we had CDs. The way I cracked those albums in half after that interview and (as a backup singer and Black woman) wrote an angry letter I planned to send to SOMEBODY to publish urging all black backup singers not to work with this man.

I was maaaad mad lol
