Vivid Offers Singer John Mayer a Job

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. — Vivid Entertainment has made singer John Mayer a job offer.

Top boss Steven Hirsch sent Mayer a letter offering him an opportunity to work with the adult entertainment company.

The letter reads, “We actively pursue working with highly creative people and you obviously fit that mold. We believe your incredible talent and passion, which have touched so many, can translate into a highly erotic adult film. I think that together we can create a highly unique breakthrough film that will appeal to your millions of fans.”

Vivid’s Jackie Martin told XBIZ, "We understand that John Mayer is on the road but we hope he gets word of our offer as we're all enthusiastic about the possibility of working with him.”

The offer comes on the heels of Mayer’s Playboy interview where he professes his love of porn saying, "Pornography? It's a new synaptic pathway. You wake up in the morning, open a thumbnail page, and it leads to a Pandora's' box of visuals. There have probably been days when I saw 300 vaginas before I got out of bed. When I watch porn, if it's not hot enough, I'll make up back stories in my mind. My biggest dream is to write pornography."

Maybe now he gets his chance.
