Jessica and I Make Sweet Love, Not Music
If you've been holding your breath for me to do a duet with Jessica Simpson, you're gonna be holding it until you pass out and die.
The problem is this: I totally dig Jessica, and making out with her is awesome, but I just don't respect her as an artist. I assume you're not gonna understand what I mean by that, and think I'm insulting her, so let me clear that up before Perez Hilton writes something untrue about me, like "John Mayer doesn't respect Jessica Simpson as an artist."
Jessica is a pop singer. Her looks are everything, and I respect all the time she puts into her make-up, selecting her outfits, and powdering her generous cleavage. But her songs are terrible -- even she knows that. I tell her that all the time. And you see, as a respected blues guitarist, I can't associate my music with hers. I can give her my body, but I cannot give her my musical soul. That would be suicide.
So no duet for us, but I do want to marry her. A good marriage isn't built on respect, it's built on mutual attraction, and believe me -- we've got that in spades. YEAH!

haha, i listen to your music all the time, and i think it's great. I love it, i love how you play your guitar, you're pretty much amazing. And the lyrics you have are pretty darn amazing as well. Whereas Jessica's music/lyrics...are not as great as yours.
I'm glad you're happy, you deserve it. Don't make a dumb decision
though.

you are such a pompous jackass. Everything that goes around comes around. I hope she dumps you on your ass.
Valeria - Thanks for the kind words. Glad to have you as a fan. And don't worry, I've got my good decision-making cap on.
Anonymous (if that is your real name) - I speak the truth, and the truth isn't always sunshine and rainbows. That's why Jessica and I work so well together: I speak the truth, and she accepts it. Maybe I'm a "jackass," but at least I'm not a lying jackass.

During your moments of self reflection do you contemplate the fact that you are a truly vile human being? Your mental manipulation of Jessica is sick. It isn't funny. It isn't amusing. It's sick. She is an alcholic trying to cope with the very public crumbling of her marriage and her career--obviously two things of tremendous importance to her--as they would be to anyone. A man of any merit tries to shield his woman from public humiliation and additional emotional distress, not heap more on her to inflate his own ego-- like you do.You push her down to build yourself up. A man of any worth is unashamedly faithful to his woman and does not flagrantly crow about his cheating or even hint at cheating on her with every college girl around. Your treatment of women is disgusting. Selfish. Shallow. Your actions and words display that the inner you has the emotional IQ of a rodent. Is this really the best human being you can be? Your business gives you a very distorted perception of the world. You seem to think that it is ok to to use women and toss them aside when you're done. Musicians, even grammy winning ones, are a dime a dozen. What happens when the music doesn't roll off your brain and your fingers don't fly? When the fans don't care about your music and turn away? When you are alone and no one wants you? Karma is an equal opportunity occurence. Look around at how many, many musicians that has happened to. Get real. Are you really worthy to be anyone's husband and lifelong companion? How can you be a faithful and emotionally supportive husband in marriage when you can't be now?
Hey, anonymous. Chill out. Seriously, you need to relax. Get some tea, put on some blues guitar, sit down on a sofa, and pet an animal of some kind.
I'll gladly -- and calmly -- answer all your questions:
Q: During your moments of self reflection do you contemplate the fact that you are a truly vile human being?
A: Nope.
Q: Is this really the best human being you can be?
A: I do my best. It's hard to do better than that.
Q: What happens when the music doesn't roll off your brain and your fingers don't fly?
A: I'll pursue another one of my interests, like writing or stand-up comedy.
Q: When the fans don't care about your music and turn away?
A: I'm my biggest fan and I'll never turn myself away. Anyone else who calls themselves a fan is, in my book, icing on the cake.
Q: When you are alone and no one wants you?
A: Believe it or not, there are more people in my life than just my fans & Jessica. I have family and close personal friends.
Q: Are you really worthy to be anyone's husband and lifelong companion?
A: Yes.
Q: How can you be a faithful and emotionally supportive husband in marriage when you can't be now?
A: I always tell Jessica the truth, and that's the foundation of a great relationship: honesty. I don't "shield" her. Everyone in her life has tried to "shield" her, and she hates that. She knows who I am, what I do, and why I do it. Always.
If it even gets that far, Jessica doesn't have to say "I do." What I offer her is all laid out on the table. I accept her for who she is, and I think she accepts me for who I am. To me, that's being as faithful and supportive as possible.
As for your unprovoked insults, I think you might have put yourself on the wrong side of karma.

I can't see how one can be attracted to someone one has no respect for. In fact, I KNOW that it doesn't work that way, not for a serious relationship anyway. For the record, reading that you wanted to marry Jessica made me wince. Granted that I am as far removed from the situation as anyone can be, I still winced.
I get that honesty is high on your priority list, but that doesn't mean that you can't say what you feel with some tact. You could have just left it at "We make different kinds of music that wouldn't mix well for us to do a duet together" instead of saying it the way you did for the whole world to see. Don't get me wrong, I am a fan and I do enjoy your music. I just think "not sheltering her" and "not respecting her" are two completely different things. I do respect your music, but I'm glad that respect doesn't mean alot to you because I've lost alot of respect for you as a person after reading this. If you really cared about her for who she was instead of just a piece you wouldn't talk about her or treat her that way. I wish you both well in whatever you do and I'll still be praying for you.

Oh dear, I suppose I am not surprised that you don't dig her music but it is the way it is put.
I'm all for bluntness and honesty but how long can a relationship last with one not necessarily supporting or respecting the other one's work. That includes they way they talk about the other publicly. If Jessica has previously had people shielding her it looks like she has gone from one extreme to another. A recipe for disaster I think. She needs to find a 'middle ground' and so for both your sakes she should probably run as fast as she can.
Good luck cos. it is true what they say that 'relationships are hard to do' especially without the heavy weight of that lack of respect you have for an aspect of your partners being.
