John Mayer doesn’t find anything weird about checking in on his ex-girlfriend Katy Perry, especially when thousands of her fans are doing the same thing.
During Mayer’s appearance on Watch What Happens Live, the singer admits that he checked in on Katy Perry’s four-day YouTube live stream she did to promote her new album, “Witness.”
According to E! Online, Mayer said “I think you’d have to watch all 96 hours to get the final verdict. That’s her thing, man – to go big and bold. Yeah, I checked in with it. It’s definitely odd to watch your ex-girlfriend sleep.”
The singer has his reasoning. He tells the show, “The way I see things now, I call it ‘standing in the middle of the boat.’ If someone says, ‘I don’t watch that,’ it’s like, ‘Yes, you do.’ You know? It’s like if you want to text someone… I texted Katy happy birthday. It was 4 in the morning. It was like a post-midnight, haven’t-gone-to-sleep-yet, it’s-technically-your-birthday send. Because how weird is it to be like, ‘I want to say happy birthday to you now, but I’m going to wait until tomorrow afternoon…’ Be a person, man.”
And naturally, Mayer believes that keeping up with his ex is just the human thing to do.
