NEWSOK! COVER STORY: Jessica Simpson — Betrayed by John Mayer
Feb. 17 2010, Published 12:00 p.m. ET
Jessica Simpson was stunned on Feb. 10 when she awoke to a flood of texts, e-mails and Tweets asking if she had seen ex-flame John Mayer’s Playboy interview. That would be the cringingly frank spill-all in which he likened her to “sexual napalm” and “crack cocaine.”
“Jessica was shocked,” a pal of the singer tells OK!. “She was really pissed off at first when she heard about it, then she read the whole interview, and the first thing that she said was, ‘I’m annoyed John would sink so low.’ ”

Facing a barrage of criticism, John, 32, expressed regret that night at a concert in Nashville. “I quit the media game,” he told the crowd at Sommet Center, voice choked with emotion. “I’m out. I’m done. I just want to play my guitar... I completey forgot about the people that I love and that love me.”
