John Mayer slams perfume-selling celebs
By ANIFriday, January 29, 2010
LONDON - John Mayer has slammed celebrities who launch their own perfumes.
The singer claimed that he would never come up with his own fragrance.
“I’ve always just been stupidly curious about stuff; I’m not diversifying in terms of selling anything. I’m not selling ‘John Mayer: the cologne’. If I did it would just smell like sausage and sleep,” the Daily Star quoted him as saying.
He added: “I don’t look at my fans and think, ‘Wow, they really like what I do musically. Imagine if I could get 60 more dollars out of them!’ Who out there really goes, ‘You know what, I just f**king love perfumes. I always have since I was a kid.
“If I weren’t a pop singer, I’d be a perfumier…’ (sic)? At some point I may turn into an a**hole, but right now I just peddle a CD for 15 dollars every two years.”
Mayer plans to expand his career, with a variety series ‘John Mayer Has a TV Show’, apart from writing blogs for the website Gawker.com. (ANI)
