The Grammy-winner took to his Twitter page to make amends for his latest inflammatory comments – this time, in the March edition of Playboy.

In it, he calls former girlfriend Jessica Simpson “sexual napalm” and says Jennifer Aniston is a technophobe who wishes she could go back to her career prime in 1998. He also uses the N-word.

On Twitter Wednesday afternoon, he apologized for the racial epithet and said he has to stop “trying to be so raw in interviews.”

“It started as an attempt to not let the waves of criticism get to me, but it’s gotten out of hand and I’ve created somewhat of a monster,” Mayer tweeted. “I wanted to be a blues guitar player. And a singer. And a songwriter. Not a shock jock. I don’t have the stomach for it.”

There were plenty who didn’t have the stomach for his remarks in Playboy, in which he talked about Simpson’s sexuality, his problems with Aniston, his love of porn, why he doesn’t date black women and being beloved by the black community.

“Someone asked me the other day, ‘What does it feel like now to have a hood pass?’ And by the way, it’s sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a nigger pass,’” he said, then added: “But I said, ‘I can’t really have a hood pass. I’ve never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told, ‘We’re full.’”

Mayer said he should have never have used the N-word in any context and will never say it again.

“And it’s such a shame that I did because the point I was trying to make was in the exact opposite spirit of the word itself. It was arrogant of me to think I could intellectualize using it, because I realize that there’s no intellectualizing a word that is so emotionally charged,” he said.

The racial comments were hardly the only explosive comments in the interview. He said he still loved Aniston, but then noting their age difference (she just turned 41), he said: “I can’t change the fact that I need to be 32.”

He also said she didn’t appreciate new technology: “The brunt of her success came before TMZ and Twitter. I think she’s still hoping it goes back to 1998. She saw my involvement in technology as courting distraction. And I always said, ‘These are the new rules,’” he said.

Of Simpson, he talked about her sexual ability, and said: “That girl, for me, is a drug … That girl is like crack cocaine to me.”

In the interview, he also explained why he didn’t date black women, comparing his genitals to “a white supremacist.”

Mayer – known for his loose tongue – has made a habit out of outlandish comments. Last month, he gave an interview with Rolling Stone where he talked openly about his love life, including sex with other women – and himself.

John Mayer got a taste of the big, bad Apple yesterday hanging out in a Lower East Side bar — as a fellow male patron was stabbed in the stomach. The ladies’-man rocker, clad in a leather jacket and jeans, was seen fleeing GoldBar in the wee hours with a gaggle of patrons from the hip lounge on Broome Street after the bloodshed. The 28-year-old victim, who had gotten into an argument with his attacker, was wheeled out on a stretcher moments later and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

The NY Post has a little blurb this morning about John Mayer and what he did for the one birthday he spent with Jessica Simpson. Well, actually he didn’t spend it with her because he was on tour. The Post says that Jessica had a party at Ken Paves house and that at some point during the party a gift arrived from John. What was the gift? A DVD of John on tour which Jessica then proceeded to play on a loop all night so she could be with him. Uh huh.

So, lets analyze this. Would John Mayer send a DVD of himself on tour as a birthday present? I think we can all agree he would do that. There is no one John loves more than John himself. Would Jessica put a DVD on a loop all night so she could see him? I think she would do that. I can see her saying it. It doesn’t mean she was sitting in front of the television watching it all night with some blank look in her eyes. Lots of people play CD’s in a loop, and I’m guessing if you have a child there may have been purely by accident a time that you put a DVD on a loop for your child. Purely by accident though.

The thing that seems not very John like is that he sent it to Ken Paves house. That part seems kind of odd. I think it is a great tale, but I think that because she got dumped on her birthday eve that people were looking for some other birthday stories about her they could share.

Tsk, tsk. Someone needs to tell John Mayer not to drink and Tweet! The crooner went Twitter-happy on Saturday night when, after a night of partying, his pal Rob Dyrdek was carried out of the L.A. nightclub My House for being too intoxicated.

Mayer was on hand both to celebrate the success of his skater boy buddy’s new film “Street Dreams” and later in the evening to bring him to a hospital where he had his stomach pumped. After escorting Dyrdek out of the hotspot, Mayer Tweeted from Cedars Sinai Medical Center: “In triage at Cedars with @Robdyrdek. When the contents of his stomach hit that silicon bag and we all saw it, we just broke into applause.” Minutes later he added, “Applause. Sh*t! Applause.”

Luckily, the “Rob and Big” star was feeling better yesterday morning, and was even well enough to ? you guessed it ? Tweet about the incident. “A funny night out with @johncmayer,” he posted. “Glow stick Dancing leads to this . . .” with a link to the picture on TMZ.com.

When stomach pumping becomes socially acceptable fodder, it’s clear that Twitter has hit new lows. Perhaps “Rob and John” should be MTV’s next show, where the boys can Tweet their nights ? and sobriety ? away. But would anybody actually watch?

Oh that John Mayer! The man who dates the paparazzi darlings might not have one at the current time, but that doesn’t stop him from pretending like he is still doing one of them. Next up he will take his vacuum cleaner and pretend that he got some hickeys!

James told “Boomer & Craig” on WFAN Sports Radio that she met the singer-songwriter in Manhattan. “He had someone send for me [from] across the room,” James related. “He had a bunch of girls with him and he said, ‘We should [all] go back to my apartment.’ ” She said Mayer left first to avoid the paparazzi, and when they got to Mayer’s apartment, “We were all hanging out and everyone started to gradually leave. It was just he and I at this point. I told him, ‘I need some taxi money, I’m gonna go home now.’ ” Mayer asked James for her number and she gave it to him before leaving. She recalled, “He texted me throughout the entire night while I was at the hotel room,” leaving messages like, “Let me tuck you in. I want to see you.” While the show’s hosts labeled Mayer “a douche,” a friend of his shrugged it off, “He met her two years ago, it was not a big deal.”

It’s not that John Mayer isn’t that into Jennifer Aniston — he’s just too busy for her.

The rocker, who was caught on a business date with a beautiful blond last week at Marix Tex Mex restaurant in Santa Monica, was back with Aniston at a private Super Bowl bash in Calabasas, Calif., on Sunday. And while that may signal another “on” phase for the on-again/off-again couple, pals say Mayer is way too busy for a serious relationship with Aniston, and instead wants to focus on himself.

“John’s goal is to keep a low profile this year, and Jen is about as far off from low-profile as you can get,” a source tells us. “He just wants to keep out of the spotlight and finally concentrate on his music.”

Mayer is working on an album tentatively titled “Battle Studies,” a followup to 2006’s “Continuum.” “He’s always in and out of the studio,” a second insider reveals. “That’s his focus.”

In addition to his music, Mayer is in talks to film a sketch-comedy show for CBS. “It’s more of a variety show that will resemble VH1’s ‘John Mayer Has a TV Show,’?” says the snitch. “That’s where his bear skit was born, so think along those lines. Combine a bunch of funny shorts, and you’ll have the show.”
And what about Aniston, whose flick “He’s Just Not That Into You” opens Friday? Insiders say she’s sick of her inconsistent relationship with Mayer.

“He keeps her in limbo,” the snitch reports. “She and John see each other and sleep with each other, but are they getting ready to walk down the aisle? No. Jennifer knows that. But at the same time, no girl wants to spend every night alone. She needs to accept the title of her new movie to be the title of her life.”
Mayer’s rep says, “We do not comment on John’s personal life.”

If things don’t work out with Mayer, Aniston has a second singing suitor waiting in the wings: “Rock of Love” bad boy Bret Michaels.

“Bret is really crushing on Jen,” a pal of Michaels confides. “He says she’s the kind of girl you can have a good time with, but can still take home to Mom.”
While we think Michaels could rock Jen’s love, a Mayer pal says: “Jen can date whoever she pleases, but she should keep in mind that John’s tour bus is so much better than Bret’s!”

Would you spend $25,000 on week with John Mayer on a cruise where he will be at your beck and call? 

Ship off from Southern California with three of your lucky friends and meet multi-platinum GRAMMY Winner John Mayer on his “Mayercraft Carrier 2,” a floatable party ship that sails the seas stocked with parties, performers, jam sessions and good times.

This experience includes roundtrip airfare for four to Los Angeles, California where you’ll stay at The Leading Hotels of the World’s luxuriously intimate Casa del Mar, a hacienda-style beachfront hotel set on the edge of the Sea of Cortez, on both the eve of your cruise and the night of your return.

The Mayercraft Carrier 2 sets sail on March 27 for a four-day voyage of fun, sun and plenty of jawdropping perks—like the guitar of Mayer’s that he’ll sign and give to you to take with you wherever you roam!

If that sounds like something you would want, then go over to ebay and hurry and bid on him because no one else has.

Even Jennifer Aniston doesn’t think he is worth the price. I personally wish Angelina Jolie bid on the cruise, how awesome would that be? Afterall it is for a good cause, Musicians On Call that brings music to hospitals.
