John Mayer's Self-Deprecating Video Almost Redeems Him

Musician John Mayer is arguably hot and deals well with the paparazzi, and maybe can play the guitar, but also is a Ron Paul fanatic, weak blogger and broadcaster and — oh, right! — Perez Hilton face-sucker. So: Yes, John Mayer Is That Bad. But now he's made a Spinal Tap-like video for FunnyOrDie.com, mocking the "creative process" of celebrity rock stars, and it's both self-deprecating and funny. It's also not personal enough to cut very deeply — nothing about Perez? — but with a few more of these could celeb-karmically balance the Perez makeout incident and Mayer could be back to Not That Bad or, dare to dream, Palatable.
