It is 30 past the hour. I`m A.J. Hammer, broadcasting tonight and every night from New York City.</s>ANDERSON: And I`m Brooke Anderson, coming to you from Hollywood. And tonight, SHOWBIZ TONIGHT brings you the great John Mayer debate - sex and Jessica.</s>HAMMER: Yes. All I have to say is, whoa. Just when you thought that John Mayer couldn`t tick off another ex-girlfriend any more than he did Jennifer Aniston, well, he does. We have got his brand-new "Playboy" magazine interview revealed today. And his comments about Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston are making big news today. John Mayer`s sexually charged and outrageous - shall we call this - sex-and-tell about his ex-girlfriend Jessica Simpson has people really wild out today. The man is bringing new meaning to the term, TMI. And it has just launched a great debate tonight. Did John step way over the line? Also breaking today, does the "love gov," Mark Sanford, have a sex tape? Yes, wait until what the soon-to-be ex-wife Jenny Sanford has to say about it today in a brand-new explosive interview. Joining me tonight from Hollywood is Carlos Diaz, who is a correspondent for "Extra." Also tonight in Hollywood is Kim Serafin, who is a senior editor for "In Touch Weekly." Let the great John Mayer debates begin. Now, John Mayer gave this brand-new, pretty outrageous sex-and-tell interview to "Playboy." He said some astounding things about his ex-girlfriend, Jessica Simpson. Let`s roll one court right now, "That girl, for me, is a drug, and drugs aren`t good for you if you do lots of them. Yes, that girl is like crack cocaine to me. Sexually, it was crazy - that`s all I`ll say. It was like napalm, sexual napalm." So he didn`t quite stop when he thought he would. Hey, look, Jessica has been described many ways as long as we`ve known her. But I`ve got to say "sexual napalm" is a new one to me. John Mayer over the line, Carlos? I mean, way over the line here?</s>DIAZ: I, for one, love the smell of sexual napalm in the morning. No, here`s - well, I`m sorry. Here`s the thing, though. I don`t think went really over the line because it really - I think if you`re told you`re great in bed, wouldn`t you want the world to know about it? I mean, I look at Jessica Simpson a whole different way now. I`m like, really? Crazy sex? Really? I kind of want to interview Jessica now and really find out what she thinks about it. But I don`t think he stepped over the line with that part of the interview. No.</s>HAMMER: Well, all right. Well, there - I mean, there are some people who would prefer that - how good they are in bed or how bad they are in bed. It`s just left as a private matter. Now, Jessica Simpson`s spokesperson did tell SHOWBIZ TONIGHT today that Jessica wouldn`t be commenting at all about this. But Jessica did tweet what I thought was a pretty vague response to the whole Mayer interview. Here`s what she tweeted, "It`s 10 days so far. At least I`m boxing two days this week." Well, I guess she`s got a lot of frustration to get out especially after reading this little quote from the John Mayer interview also revealed in "Playboy" today. "There are people in the world who have the power to change our values. Have you ever been with a girl who made you want to quit the rest of your life? Do you ever say, `I want quit my life and just</s>SERAFIN: Yes. I think so, probably, though I have to say, A.J., you have a lot of passion more so than I have heard you have in a long time reading this John Mayer interview. I like your</s>HAMMER: If you can`t be John Mayer, channel him the best you can, I guess.</s>SERAFIN: Yes. OK. Look, I think -</s>HAMMER: Go ahead. Go ahead.</s>SERAFIN: I think he has - yes, obviously. People don`t their sex life broadcast to the world like this. But remember with Jessica - a lot of people thought he broke up with her because she was being too clingy and too needy. But here, he`s saying - this guy who is the biggest player in the world, pretty much, as he`s telling us, that she was the one girl - until he got to Jennifer Aniston and tells us about her. Jessica, at that point, was the one girl who, you know, was sexual napalm to him.</s>HAMMER: Yes.</s>MAYER: Who he would, you know, pay $10,000 to be intimate with. So I think for Jessica - she`s having a sense of humor about it. Better this than, you know, Jessica gets dumped again. Plus, you can`t hold on</s>HAMMER: Yes. I`ve got to tell you, Kim. I don`t know if she`s having a sense of humor about this. She may just be avoiding it. And again, her spokesperson is saying she`s not going to comment at all. She just put a tweet out there just to put something out. We don`t really know how she feels about this. Sometimes, a compliment not always a compliment. Let me get to our SHOWBIZ TONIGHT Facebook page. It was on fire today - a huge debate. Kelly R. having none of it, saying, "If you need to brag about your sex life, then you have no life. Did anyone ask Jess if it was OK for him to talk about it? No wonder he can`t keep a girl. He feels the need to talk about it all the time. What a tool." Heather S. not agreeing writing this, "Last time I checked, we had free speech in this country. It`s his life. He can say what he wants. Women know he tells a lot when they date him. If they don`t like it, they shouldn`t date him." Brooke Anderson, off to you. I`m guessing you have some strong thoughts on this. Do you buy Heather`s free speech argument? Or are you with Kelly who thinks John`s a tool.</s>ANDERSON: I lean more to how Kelly is describing it. I obviously - I believe in free speech, but also that constitutional right comes with responsibility, I believe, to have decency and be decent to other people. I just don`t understand why he feels the need to reveal such intimate details about every single personal thing in his life, every single person he dates. He kisses and tells. It`s disrespectful. Bottom line, it`s disrespectful. And John, you just need to grow up a little bit, because people`s feelings are on the line. It`s not a game.</s>HAMMER: He knows he`s a rock and roll star. I`ve got to get to the Jessica Simpson stuff. I don`t think she was at all exempt from many of John`s ex talk. Here`s what he tells "Playboy" about Jen. He says, "We just have such a regard for each other`s feelings and is pretty intense. It`s been a deep relationship and it`s no longer taking place at all. Have you ever loved somebody, loved her completely, but had to end the relationship for life reasons." Sounds to me like John really loves Jen. But Carlos, doesn`t he know by now he really should stop talking about Jennifer in public?</s>DIAZ: Well, really, the only, you know, glimpse we`re getting of Jennifer Aniston`s personal life is through John Mayer. But you know what? I`m sorry and I respect Brooke entirely, but I completely disagree with what she just said. Brooke, I mean, our jobs are to get celebrities to talk about their personal life. And you`re saying that John Mayer is out of line for revealing the most intimate details about his personal life? That`s what we strive to do as entertainment reporters every day, is to get them to say the most that they can to us. How was that wrong? I don`t understand that.</s>HAMMER: Brooke?</s>ANDERSON: His music - I think John is a talented musician. And yes, you`re right. Sometimes, we do want to get those details that everybody may not understand or may not hear about. But this really crosses the line in my opinion. I think John is an excellent, talented musician and songwriter. And I think that`s what he needs to do. He does that best.</s>HAMMER: Well, this is not the end of this discussion.</s>SERAFIN: I just want to say one -</s>HAMMER: But I do need to move on right now, guys. I want to move on this other explosive, brand-new sex tape shocker - a sex tape shocker with love gov Mark Sanford`s soon-to-be ex-wife, Jenny Sanford. Now, she told HLN`s Joy Behar she didn`t waste any time confronting about a sex tape when she heard that John Edwards might have one. Let`s listen to this.</s>SANFORD: When I heard about the sex tape - Mark was with the boys. I walked in the room the other day and I said - oh, I looked Mark in the eye, and I said, "I hope there are no tapes coming. Boys, you know, brace yourselves if there`s something else coming down the line."</s>HAMMER: All right. Kim, quickly. Between the affair with his mistress and soul mate from Argentina and all the lies, I honestly wouldn`t be surprised if there was a sex tape. You?</s>SERAFIN: No. It`s so sad, but I wouldn`t be surprised at all. And I think, Jenny, by the way, is coming across really, really well in all these interviews. She doesn`t look like she`s out for vengeance. She doesn`t look like she`s out to get him. She said - actually, she has nice things to say about him in these interviews. I think she comes across really, like, high class and so different than a lot of the other women who have been through this.</s>HAMMER: Yes. Celebrities and politicians, please step away from the camcorders. Carlos Diaz, Kim Serafin, thanks, guys.</s>ANDERSON: Tonight, Lindsay Lohan`s crucifixion outrage. Now, Lindsay`s been unusually quiet for a while. No late nights all over Hollywood. But today, a new magazine controversy today is going to make those episodes look like</s>ALLEY: I think it`s stupid to say, you know, I`m full-figured.</s>ANDERSON: Kirstie Alley`s dramatic new public weight battle. You remember Kirstie lost a bunch of weight on Jenny Craig. She even stripped down on "Oprah." Then gained it all back right before our eyes. But Kirstie`s ready to do it again and it`s going to be caught on tape. But I`ve got to wonder - is Kirstie making a really big mistake? We`ll also have this.</s>MOOS: It was one of the most memorable plays of the game. Saints quarterback Drew Brees cradled his son instead of a football, eyes brimming.</s>ANDERSON: The top quarterback`s tender moment. It`s the move New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees made on the field after his big win. We`ve got people cheering everywhere. This is SHOWBIZ TONIGHT on HLN.
