John Mayer tells Ryan Seacrest how he feels about Jessica…in Japanese.

Ryan Seacrest literally dragged John Mayer in front of the camera, pulling the multiple-nominee away from another interview. “You’re the Anderson Cooper of E!,” Mayer joked with Seacrest. After answering two short questions, Seacrest released Mayer – then nabbed him again for a more in-depth chat. After discussing his music, Seacrest asked the question on everybody’s mind: What’s the scoop with Jessica Simpson? Mayer, ever the funnyman, answered in what sounded like Japanese and then suggested: “Find a Japanese person and decode it. Subtitle it. Then you’ll have your answer.” Seeming self-satisfied, Mayer told an amused Seacrest, “I’m very happy with what I just did to you,” before walking off.

Turns out John Mayer really can speak Japanese – and the translation is in! “She’s a wonderful woman and I’m very glad to be with her,” a bilingual Mayer teased Seacrest.

He looks like he just crawled out of the grave. What a nightmare he is compared to Nick.

People Magazine quoted a different translation.

Oops, I checked People last night, and it said something totally different than what they are quoting now. I stand corrected!
