John Mayer Swears Off Dating; Will Still Gladly Have Sex With You Though

JOHN MAYER ON ELLENBad news for the female fans of twisty-faced bluesy-rock: You might want to hit “menopause” on your biological clocks, because musician John Mayer is taking a break from dating. That screeching you hear that sounds like the demons at the end of Ghost is actually the universal creaking of millions of 40 year old V’s committing suicide.

On today’s Ellen, John tells the heartbroken host the following:

“Yeah, I’m a little freaked out about dating,” he tells Ellen DeGeneres on an episode of her talk show to air Tuesday. “So, I’m just going to let time pass and just do my thing.”

So just what is his “thing,” you ask? Well, it could stand for a variety of hobbies. Maybe his thing is writing a new album… or doing racist stand-up comedy. (People have made mints this way! Racist breath fresheners, not money.)

Or he could just mean it literally. If John Mayer’s “thing” was literally the v’s of ladies 24 and under, then he would, in a way, be “doing” it. Yes, this seems like the most obvious choice. But clearly, his thing is DEFINITELY not sleeping with a famous blond actress more than once in a row. No thank you.

The question now is, if John Mayer has sworn off of dating celebrities, who could possibly replace his tousle-haired lost gaze on the covers of our beloved celebrity weeklies declaring the next hot couple? We give our suggestion ahead, but feel free to leave your in the comments…

Lindsay Lohan’s Ghost Haunts The Ellen Degeneres Show

Sometimes, you get so used to seeing a celebrity in photographs that you almost forget what that person sounds and acts like. In the case of Lindsay Lohan, this is a good thing. For yesterday, all 94 pounds of Lindsay made an appearance on The Ellen Degeneres Show in order to clear up some rumors. Like that she’s anorexic; a coke addict; obsessed with ex-girlfriend Sam Ronson; mentally ill; unstable; gargles with hydrochloric acid; is 46… You know the ones.

Unfortunately for Linds, doesn’t look like she’ll be clearing up those rumors anytime soon:

You know, going back and watching her in an interview as a little girl, you almost see the seeds of insanity being planted. Crazy people were little once too.

10 Celebrity Couples We Actually Like

With the recent second-breakup of Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel, Hollywood has lost another one of its precious few super-likable couples. Often times we forget that for every easy-to-rip-on Hollywood gossip pairing — from Tom & Katie to Heidi & Spencer to Cameron Diaz & A Weekly Roofied Twentysomething — there’s another rational celeb couple living something resembling a sane and normal existence (actually the ratio is closer to 80 crazy couples : 1 kind-of-sane couple, but you get the idea).

In the spirit of celebrating rather than complaining for a change, here’s our list of 10 Celebrity Couples That We Actually Like:
10. Amy Poehler and Will Arnett

Further proof that two funny, attractive people can find each other in this crazy world. Just like Gallagher and Mrs. Gallagher, or Andrew Dice Clay and Some Unfortunate Woman.

9. Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick

Couldn’t be more New York if the Empire State Building f*cked the Carnegie Deli.

Josh Groban Sings “Total Eclipse of the Balls”

We’ve considered ourselves “Grobanites” ever since meeting Josh Groban at 2007’s Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony, where the true glow of the evening came from Groban’s effortless charm. (Seriously, he was sort of the best.) And while we knew the guy had some serious pipes, we never realized just how low his pipes go… as in, they are attached to his perineum.

During an appearance on Ellen yesterday, the twosome performed a moving duet of the Bonnie Tyler classic “Total Eclipse of the Heart”. Their version is actually not so bad! It’s both beautifully harmonized and, yet, passionate? It also features Ellen’s dead-on impression of The Dan Band.


So that settles it!! Josh Groban has huge balls. Thanks for playing.

Blindfolded Musical Chairs On Ellen: The Revenge

Ellen brought back her new feature “Blindfolded Musical Chairs” (aka “Injury Lawsuit Waiting To Happen”) for a second installment this week, and I have to admit, there’s something perversely entertaining about hapless individuals flailing around on tv like fools in complete ignorance of their exploitation. It’s like Idol, only much more excusable when they’re spastic:

While You Were Showing Brangelina Who’s Naked

293.aniston.jennifer.GQcover.lc.121008.jpg

  • Jennifer Aniston showed her patriotism by wearing nothing but a red, white & blue tie on the cover of GQ. Brad is so not looking.
  • The Gossip Girl spinoff is going to revolve around the story of young Lily and Rufus, so everybody just calm down – nobody is leaving GG. So basically it’s going to be That 90’s Show? I feel old.
  • Ellen Degeneres is the newest easy breezy beautiful CoverGirl. I get it: if you want to not look like a ho and wear makeup that attracts the likes of Portia de Rossi, then CoverGirl is for you.
  • A Chilean cardinal is complaining about Madonna, saying that her concert causes “crazy enthusiasm” and “impure thoughts.” We all know what happens when people get filled with “crazy enthusiasm”!!! (They have sex with the devil.)
  • Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz have been approaching all the magazines to try and sell first photos of Bronx Mowgli – but so far, there are no takers, except for Eyeliner Baby, Horrible Baby Names Monthly, and Attention Whore Weekly.

While You Were Bringing Britney Some Figgy Pudding

  • Britney Spears and Ellen Degeneres went Christmas caroling together for Ellen’s show. Britney kept singing “All I want for Christmas is my two sons back, my two sons back…”
  • NBC has given Jay Leno a nightly show in the 10 p.m. slot. I hear they are going to call it either The Earlier Tonight Show or The Underminey Show.
  • Alex Greven, the 9-year-old who wrote the adorable How To Talk To Girls book, has been awarded a six-figure movie deal. A child star is born. Can’t wait for his book in 20 years: How To Talk To A Parole Officer.
  • Rumors are swirling that T.R. Knight, who plays George on Grey’s Anatomy, is pissed about his story line and has walked off set. Look, if being pissed about a stupid story line on Grey’s Anatomy were reason to leave, everyone would be gone.
  • Jimmy Fallon’s first vlog went up, and it’s basically just him introducing the show, the set, and his house band The Roots. Looking forward to see more of these. And um, he’s right…he’s got quite possibly the best house band in late night. Ever.
  • Online journalists can now win a Pulitzer for their work. Ahhahahem! Mr. Pulitzer, might I direct your attention to my extensive coverage of Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt? I look forward to hearing from you…later this morning.

ICYMI: Hilary Swank Auditioned For Starring Role In Future Ellen Biopic

Hilary Swank came out dressed as Ellen on her Halloween show and danced with the crowd. WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! (Crowd.) Hahaha…hmmm…ahem. (Ellen.)

I can’t figure out if Hilary is a bad dancer, or if it’s part of her “acting.”

Kanye West In The Taste-Making Business Once Again

Kanye West has a regular feature on his blog where he introduces us to a “Fresh Kid,” someone who is new to the scene, and to whom we should all be paying close attention – because his or her big break is coming SOON. Today, Kanye introduced us to someone who is just starting out and may owe her entire career to Kanye, now that he’s dubbed her as one of his Fresh Kids:

Who is this “Ellen Degeneres”? I’m pretty sure the world is about to find out.
