John Mayer explained how he differs from a douch or famewhore on his Twitter (@johncmayer) earlier today, instead calling himself a “showbiz type”. The singer songwriter tells readers:
I love how some dudes hate me for dating their fantasy girl, as if they were going to if I hadn’t.
Let’s hammer this out today. Long before “douches” and “famewhores” there were these people called “showbiz types.”
“Showbiz types” are people who grew up talking to themselves alone in a room for hours until they found some sort of outlet.
Once they found that outlet, everything fell into place, except for the fact that they still never worked out why they still talk so much.
So you see, though filled with deep emotional voids that can never be filled, Showbiz Types are an important part of our Nation’s tapestry.
I’m a Showbiz Type. (cue penny whistle and marching drums) But I am not a douche!! (of 1,090,466, seventeen stand and applaud wildly)
