Mayer Turns His Back On Twitter
By WENNTuesday, September 14, 2010
JOHN MAYER has lost 3.7 million friends - the rocker has shut down his Twitter.com page.
The musician was a regularly tweeter when the micro-blogging site first became popular, but his interest in updating his millions of followers waned after several of his more controversial posts hit the headlines.
In April (10) he threatened to quit the site altogether, insisting it had made him a target for “haters”.
And Mayer has stuck to his word - he closed down his Twitter account on Sunday (12Sep10).
His publicist states that there is no need to update fans as his Battles Studies Tour is “now at a close and a return to the studio planned”.
The rep adds that Mayer will still communicate with his fans through his official blog.
Mayer is not the only star to grow tired of tweeting - Demi Lovato and Amanda Bynes have also quit the site this month (Sep10).
