Here's Everyone John Mayer Has Apparently Ever Dated, And I Totally Forgot About Some Of These Relationships
John Mayer is back in the news for his dating history!
In case you didn't know, John is somewhat of an infamous dater.
He's kind of like the original Pete Davidson.
But now he's done with dating!
He told the Call Me Daddy podcast why he doesn't really date anymore. "I don’t really date. I don’t think that I have to, to be quite honest," he said.
"I quit drinking like six years ago, so I don’t have the liquid courage. I just have dry courage," he said.
Sooo, because he's had a particularly rich and famous dating history, let's look at everyone he's ever dated...
In the early 2000s, John apparently dated Vanessa Carlton.
It didn't last long...
...and then he started dating Jennifer Love Hewitt.
They broke up after a super-brief relationship in 2002.
Next up, John dated Jessica Simpson on and off in 2006 and 2007.
You'll probably remember John's 2010 Playboy interview where he described sex with Jessica as "sexual napalm."
"Sexually, it was crazy. That’s all I’ll say. It was like napalm, sexual napalm," he said.
Jess responded to these comments in her 2020 memoir: "He was the most loyal person on the planet, and when I read that he wasn’t, that was it for me. I erased his number. He made it easy for me to walk away.”
John apparently broke up with Jessica nine times, and each time was over email(!!!).
In 2007, John had a fling with Cameron Diaz.
It was right after Cameron broke up with Justin Timberlake, and People magazine said the two were spotted being "super flirty."
In 2007, John also dated Minka Kelly.
They took some really flirty pics at a Knicks game and "quietly" broke up in early 2008.
Next up, we have another Jen.
I'm obviously talking about Jennifer Aniston.
They dated for about a year in 2008.
John told Playboy, "That woman was the most communicative, sweetest, kindest person."
Taylor Swift came around in 2009.
They apparently dated in 2009 and 2010, and Taylor had a song about him called "Dear John" on her Speak Now album.
In 2010, John was linked to Kim Kardashian.
In 2011, John was allegedly spotted kissing Miley Cyrus backstage at the Grammys.
And then John dated Katy Perry.
They started dating in 2012.
He told CBS News Sunday Morning, "For the first time in my life, I don't feel like I'm in a celebrity relationship."
They ultimately broke up in 2015*.
*According to the New York Daily News, they had previously broken up and gotten back together in 2014.
And that kind of ends it for a while.
In 2022, he was spotted having dinner with Kiernan Shipka.
But that's really it! As we know now, John doesn't really date anymore.
