John Mayer is opening up about appreciating the music created by some of his famous exes and wondering if any of their songs are written about him!
The 43-year-old musician was a recent guest on Andy Cohen‘s Sirius XM show Radio Andy and the pair discussed what it’s like to date other singers and listen to their music.
John‘s has dated a number of high-profile musicians over the years, including Katy Perry
When Andy asked if he ever watched any of his ex-girlfriend’s performances, John replied, “I don’t believe that there’s anyone on the boogeyman list anymore. Because you know, when you have a recent ex, we got bogeyman vibes for everyone. I don’t believe I have any boogie people in my life at the moment.”
He added, “I don’t know that I’d watch a whole program. If someone were, if somebody were performing, I would definitely watch the performance. And, I enjoy, I enjoy watching it. Sometimes, I like, I’m a fan. Like I can watch and go like, nailed it.”
John also shared that he wonders if the music is about him.
“Sometimes I hope it’s about me,” he said. “Sometimes it’s a really good song. And I go and I listen sometimes. Yeah. I mean, I’ll, it’s not a, I don’t think it’s a dirty admission. I, sometimes a song is so good I go, ‘Man, I hope that’s about me.’”
The “New Light” singer also opened up about getting to be ex Katy Perry‘s plus one at Barack Obama‘s inauguration and at her Super Bowl performance.
“[I was] kind of going as the first gentlemen of Katy Perry,” John joked. “I know I’m good at what I do. I got no problem entering into someone else’s world. It’s her night.”
“That’s why a relationship like that can work because I know where my bread is buttered and it’s not,” he continued. “I know that it’s not like I was sitting there going like, ‘I sure hope they picked me for the Super Bowl.’ I’m never getting picked for the Super Bowl. I have no problem. I do a different thing.”
