John Mayer Says He's The One for Jen, America Disagrees
Booted out of his own relationship.
Sometimes John Mayer makes me laugh. I can't say I'm proud of it. I can't even really explain why. OK, that's a lie - a full-grown man in a very, very, very skimpy suspendered swimsuit is pretty much a guaranteed laugh out loud moment. But this time the face-maker and would-be world-changer had me turning my frown upside down, and no unmentionables were required. Here's why.
People magazine recently posted a poll on their website. To commemorate John and Jen's one-year anniversary, they asked the question people the world over are dying to know: "Is John Mayer The One?"
They offered two choices: "Love Him" or "Lose Him" and people could vote on whether they thought John was the one for Jen. And vote people did. People, including John Mayer himself.
John weighed in on the fate of his own relationship. And while Jen will be happy to know he voted "Love Him," she may be dismayed to find out that the rest of America came in on the "Lose Him" side.
John sure was. He posted the following to his Twitter (with a hint of irony, we hope): "I just voted on People's "Is John Mayer a Keeper?" poll. I clicked "Love Him" but "Lose Him" is winning at 63%."
I realize it's probably odd that someone wants to join total strangers in voting on the future success of their own relationship and even stranger that they then go on to Twitter about it, but it's also kind of funny. It's just the kind of thing I can see Rachel Green doing, actually - if Friends had lasted long enough to see the days of blogs, Twitter and the like.
And that kind of makes me feel warm and fuzzy about the allegedly happy couple. Or maybe that's just the wine. Either way, I say "Love Him," at least for today.
