LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Singer John Mayer ignited a media storm on Wednesday with a no-holds barred Playboy magazine interview in which he described former girlfriend Jessica Simpson as "sexual napalm" and confessed an aversion to sleeping with black women.
Mayer, 32, the bluesy writer of hits like "Gravity" and "Your Body is a Wonderland", also spoke of his passion for pornography and abiding love for ex-girlfriend Jennifer Aniston, describing her as "the most communicative, sweetest, kindest person".
But it was the Grammy-winning singer/songwriter's comments about black women, widely perceived as racist, that set the Internet alight and fast became one of the top three most popular topics on Twitter.
Despite being dubbed a womanizer in the media for relationships with Hollywood stars like Simpson, Aniston and Jennifer Love Hewitt, Mayer told Playboy that he was not open to having sex with black women
Mayer described his penis as "sort of like a white supremacist". He also used a slur against African Americans that is widely perceived as racist in the interview that is filled with expletives.
"wow if this stuff is true...John Mayer just lost a whole heap of cool points...and i really likes him too..." commented jnyfer on Twitter.
Mayer, who has worked with rappers Kanye West and Jay-Z and has a 3 million fan following on Twitter, was silent on Wednesday and there was no immediate comment from his representatives. He is currently on a U.S. and Canadian tour to promote his latest album "Battle Studies".
In the interview for Playboy's March edition, some of which reportedly took place as Mayer downed malt whisky, the singer sought to refute the media image of him as a womanizer and "douche bag".
"I've been trying to prove to people I'm not a douche bag by not dating, by keeping my name out of 'Us Weekly'," he said.
Yet he described his brief 2006 relationship with Simpson as an addiction. "That girl was like crack cocaine to me...Sexually, it was crazy. That's all I'll say. It was like napalm, sexual napalm," he said.
Mayer said his "biggest dream is to write pornography". The March issue of Playboy hits newsstands on February 12, and the interview can be read now on the magazine's website.

And he has no desire to sleep with black women. Big deal, neither do I. Never have. That doesn't make you a racist. I don't like white rice, there's proof. 
Mayer is one of those artists I always change the radio station on
