Weeks after his controversial Playboy interview (during which he used the N-word and referred to ex Jessica Simpson as sexual "crack cocaine"), John Mayer is continuing to insist he is a different person these days.

"I hate to come off like an a--hole ever, and thank you guys for believing that I am not an a--hole," the singer, 32, told the crowd at his sold-out Madison Square Garden show in NYC, according to MTV News. "Never, ever in my entire life did I ever think that it would be a good idea to be an a--hole. But you know what? There's plenty of a--holes who think the same thing, so I have to thank you."

He added, "It's a clean me now, people, clean me."

After his show, he thanked fans again - via Twitter - for braving a snow storm to see him live. "MSG crowd, will you tweet me when you get home safe? It's bad out," he wrote. "Oh and HOLY SHNIKES. You were unreal tonight."

    If he only read the book A-holeology he would know the difference between and a-hole and a d-bag.

    No matter how sorry John Mayer might be, he's still an a@sshole, just like he said!

    He's been a jerk for years. When he spoke to the paparazzi on a street corner about dumping Jennifer Aniston, I thought, no celebrity woman will ever date him again. Wrong! Why do beautiful, successful women fall for him? I don't understand it. He's a jerk!!

  • February 26, 2010 - 1:25pm Mayer hater

    He sucks today, tomorrow, and forever... racist wannabe, with a little bit of talent that is miniscule in comparison to his inflated ego, his big hurtful racist, sexist, misogynist remarks against black women ,and all women for that fact. He does not deserve the platform that he has been given. He had the chance to say something positive and or meaningful, and he used it to talk about his "racist David Duke penis". I have never heard such a crock of. This coming from a so called artist that is into and makes blues music! Are you kidding me John Mayer in 2010? Please crawl back under the rock that you came from. Spare us all your sob story, and completely fake and empty apologies. You are a sad example of a human being.

    dude is such a vinegar-based vaginal cleansing product.

  • February 26, 2010 - 12:53pm ?????

    It's sad that someone with such talent is not a very good person - treats women badly. Enough with the Playboy interviews - if you want to prove your not an a-hole, maybe Playboy interviews are not the greatest place to spout this info....

    Apologies are only sincere when you do it once. When one apologizes for the same thing over and over it means nothing. BTW, you are an A-hole Mayer! And an ugly one to boot.

  • February 26, 2010 - 12:33pm Codependent with Social Media

    All his obsessive behavior, his hyper-vigilence, is indicative of an addictive, self-centered personality. If it's possible to be codependent with social media, he's there. Yes, he's a huge talent, but dude could benefit from a stint in rehab. He's outta control with his boundaries and acting-out behavior.

    Its really to Late for that right?!

  • February 26, 2010 - 12:24pm Her is the biggest A-hole! This extremely fugly man with a penis disorder should be SHUNNED

    I like Jennifer Aniston but how could she have dated this creep for as long as she did. To think this ugly jerk dumped her TWICE. Why would any fool PAY to she John Mayer??

  • February 26, 2010 - 12:08pm hopeless

    He's a talented musician but a lousy human being. I'm pretty much done with him as it gets tiring trying to separate the ego-driven, narcissistic personality from the talent. This guy has an inflated sense of self importance. He plays guitar..he's not out trying to cure cancer.

  • February 26, 2010 - 12:07pm lobri

    Like some of his songs, but I wish he'd just shut the hell up for a little while.

  • February 26, 2010 - 12:00pm Valerie

    Idea, just stop talking. If you do concerts, find something else to talk about. Like, I don't know.. music.

  • February 26, 2010 - 11:37am Mattie

    Then he goes to twitter and says he can't walk right because he got in wedgie fight with the sound engineer. Real class John. I thought you were going to shut up. Focus on your music.

  • February 26, 2010 - 11:27am Kris

    I believe the best thing for this man to do, is just disappear for a while... u will effect your career, if it hasn't been already. The more apologies, my opinion, the MORE "unreal" and fake he seems. What enormous talent for a troubled soul!

  • February 26, 2010 - 11:17am Iraida

    he's a real a-hole. I bet he has 2 balls & a tick tack. u know centermeter peter.

  • February 26, 2010 - 10:50am Denise Niemczewski

    just copy word for word and add ugly to boot.
