TMZ caught up with John Mayer in New York City, where the singer songwriter was seen signing autographs for resellers. Mayer said he usually signs his name through the reseller’s name so they can’t sell it for as much money, but due to the bad economy, he’s no longer doing that and encouraging them to make money off his signature. John also was asked about whether he had TMZ to thank for his rumored variety show deal with CBS. He responded, “No. I think every celebrity owes a debt of gratitude to TMZ.” Watch the video below.
