What's Japanese For "Seacrest Got Served"?

Funny or douche-y? You make the call. We need a "decoder."

I think he was calling Seacrest a douche. If Mayer really loves Jessica someone needs to buy him this t-shirt: http://teesmybody.com/funny-t-shirt/cobra-commander-t-shirt.php

I think the grammy's are kind of like taking Mario Battali to the McDonalds kitchen on 42nd street and saying: "What do you think?" Half the food is shipped from China frozen then microwaved, the other is fried in animal fat.

he said, "Jessica is a great woman. Being with her is the best." more or less.

we translators get paid for a reason, for "decoding" john mayer's crappy japanese. (thanks ryan for making japanese sound like a "code". yeah, we cunniving yelow people speak in "codes") he fucking said "she's a great lady. I' very happy to be together with her." i want to be a musician just so i can get interviewed by ryan. i'd take the mic from him and shove it in his mouth kamikaze style.

Wow. The unthinkable just happened: I gained an ounce of respect for John Mayer.

I thought it was funny, but I don't get all the Seacrest hate. Sure he kinda sucks, but it's not like a million other people haven't asked Mayer the same question, and Seacrest wasn't even as douche-y about it as most of them.

why do you need a decoder? it says the english translation on the bottom of the video. "she is very beautiful and your the last to know."

The "She is very beautiful and you'll be the last to know." comment was apparently mistranslated. The poster hey is right. And John's getting cred for "putting him down". Heh...

I always thought Mayer was a berk but he won me over with his O&A appearances.. The kid thinks he's funny. And he kinda is.

You mean that wasn't Jack White? I'm so confused.
