Hizzoner, the Mayer of Fibbington
With rumors spreading like wildfire, perhaps the best thing to do is spread some more…kinda like firemen setting a backfire to sap a blaze’s energy. Maybe that’s John Mayer’s strategy, because he told the crowd at his St. Louis show last night:
“When I was a child I would kill small animals and wear their teeth as necklaces. True. Print that. And I’ve always felt deep down that I was born a woman.”
On tour with Jennifer Aniston in tow, John set off on this goofy rumor jag after telling the amused multitudes that he enjoyed it when fans emailed him dubious tales from the tabloids. Some of the other felicitous fabrications, per People magazine, which John shared with the crowd:
He fears the color green. He weighed 400 pounds when he was 12. He wrote the lyrics to the Kenny Loggins hit “Danger Zone” at age 9. And he’s “33 percent done” with building a time machine.
Nice going, John. With rumors this good, who needs reality?
Jennifer Aniston Rides the John Mayer Express
Jennifer Aniston has resorted to taking the bus these days, and it has nothing to do with the summer’s sky-high gas prices.
E! News has learned that actress is not just attending boyfriend John Mayer’s concerts. She’s gone groupie, joining him on his tour bus.
Mayer kicked off the U.S. leg of his summer road show Wednesday night, with Aniston by his side backstage. The couple arrived together at the 2008 Milwaukee Summerfest at the Marcus Amphitheater on his rig.
“They were on John’s tour bus hanging out most of the time before the show,” Kristi Chuckel, publicist for Summerfest, tells News.
Mayer went on at 9 p.m. and played for about two hours. All the while, his No. 1 band aide was watching from the side.
“She was backstage standing in the wings, hanging out and watching the show,” says Chuckel.
And it looks like she was enjoying herself.
Karra Barnes, a Mayer fan who also saw Aniston backstage, tells News, “She seemed pretty into it. She supports him greatly, you can tell.
“John Mayer also seems to be playing with a lot more passion. I saw him last year at Summerfest, and he was very passionate then, but now something seems a little different about him.”
Perhaps it has something to do with his ride share?
Mayer, presumably with his Friend in tow, plays tonight at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Maryland Heights, Mo.
Jennifer Aniston: Back in the States
Jennifer Aniston: Back in the States
She’s been tooling around the UK with her musician lover John Mayer. And last night, Jennifer Aniston returned home to southern California.
The “He’s Just Not That Into You” babe arrived at LAX International Airport last evening looking a bit worn out from her painfully long transatlantic flight.
But she wore the jet-lag well, sporting a grey top underneath a khaki jacket teamed with a pair of jeans and some comfy-looking flip flops as she made her way through the terminal.
As previously reported by the , Jen was busy over the weekend in Europe, most recently checking out Mayer’s gig in the Hyde Park area of London. And as she departed, John was on his way to his gig at the Glastonbury Festival.

Continuing to follow her man around Europe, Jennifer Aniston was spotted attending boyfriend John Mayer’s show at Hard Rock Calling in Hyde Park on Saturday (June 28).
With camera in-hand, the former Friends star walked the lot with a few companions before finding an ideal spot to shoot a few personal pictures of the “Why Georgia?” singer doing his thing onstage.
The night before, Miss Aniston made what was her first appearance at one of the gigs on his European tour (despite being overseas for nearly a week).
According to People magazine reports, “The actress arrived at a side entrance of the concert in gritty Brixton, south London, around 8.30 p.m., looking casual in dark blue jeans and stepping out of a red Range Rover.”
During the show, John told the crowd: “Every relationship someone steps into might somehow shake you up a bit. So I’m gonna take my time a little bit.”
