I usually stay away from writing about the Z list stars of MTV reality shows because they are collectively annoying as hell but this is too funny to pass up.   MTV’s The Hills premieres its new season tonight @ 10 p.m. and “star” Kristen Cavallari (yeah I didn’t know who she was until a few weeks ago either) was enlisted  to drum up some press  for tonight’s premiere. How else to do that in Hollywood but by name dropping and name drop she did.

Back Story: National Enquirer writer turned gossip blogger Janet Charlton made up a rumor via Page Six that Cavallari and singer/songwriter John Mayer were having as secret love affair for the past 2 years. Mayer was quick to hilariously deny such rumors on twitter as well did Cavallari who said it wasn’t true and that she only met him one time for five minutes.

Flash forward: This morning Cavallari, in a change of story, told Ryan Seacrest that she turned him down in that five minute meeting because she “didn’t want to be another notch on his belt”. And as you know it that quote was picked up by Us Weekly, People and every other popular gossip outlet as hoped.

She knows damn well John Mayer did not ask her out. This obvious publicity stunt shows not only the stupidity of Cavallari but also how someone would sell their soul all in the name of fame.  Mayer semi addressed Cavalliri’s comment on twitter today and I give him props for keeping his cool.

He get’s a bad wrap on the female front; the media as they always do with celebrities found something negative to grab onto with Mayer. You know Cavallari woke up this morning and thought this would be the funniest thing to say because some how it’s come to the point that meeting John Mayer automatically means he hit on you. Move aside Spencer and Heidi there’s a new mediawhore in town!

Mayer has been making the gossip rounds lately anyway with rumors he was seeing ex Jessica Simpson although both have denied the claims repeatedly while the UK tabloids along with a few Us ones are saying he and recent ex Jennifer Aniston are on the DL again. This rumor has been around for about a month but neither Mayer or Aniston will comment. Regardless of his bedroom action, his new single “Who Says” hits radio waves this week while  his new album “BattleStudies” is out November 17th.
