National Enquirer Blind Item

THIS Grammy-winning musician gets such a kick out of impersonating a certain A-list star that he actually poses for photos with the actor’s fans AND signs his autograph! The sleazy singer likes to be a bigger jerk than usual when people mistake him for “Mr. Movie Star” – and even undertips on restaurant and bar bills in the hope that the media will pick up the story!

John Mayer and Johnny Depp?

John Mayer posing as Johnny Depp.

JSierra said...

Bahahaha I want to say Kanyeezy but I am not sure who he would be mistaken for, other than Kim Kardashian's ass.
This totally sounds like something I would get drunk and do, without the whole being a jerk to people and under tipping bit.

kpist said...

Agree with the Mayer/Depp guess

JennHas2Ns said...

Immediately thought John Mayer/Johnny Depp.

I blame you, Mr Depp, for helping douchebags across the nation believe that long, unwashed hair and tinted glasses make them sexy.

Amber said...

Who the hell is mistaking John Mayer for Johnny Depp?! They deserve to be fooled.

RHCP drummer Chad Smith and Will Ferrell

vonder said...

It is the drummer for the Red Hot Chili Peppers impersonating Will Ferrel for sure. Not a doubt, they are almost identical.

FSP said...

Dee Snider and Sarah Jessica Parker.

lostathome said...

They really do look alike. John and Johnny, not at ALL

Cornbread said...

Oh. Em. Gee. Google images confirms the Smith-Ferrell guess for me, without a doubt. I read somewhere once that everyone in the world has an identicial twin (doppelganger?). Stories like this make me believe it.

Amber said...

LOL @ FSP. Perfect.

I just googled the rhcp drummer -- wow, he looks exactly like will ferrel!

angie said...

I agree that Chad Smith and Will Farrell would be easier to mistake for one another than John Mayer and Johnny Depp, but is Chad regarded as being sleazy?

Anonymous said...

I don't know but I follow Chad Smith on Twitter/FB and he certainly owns up to doing this but I think Will Farrell and him are friends?

Amber said...

Re: Doppelgangers - I've told this story to people before, but not here...One time a friend asked if he saw me waiting for a bus on such-and-such corner, and I said no, why? He said he saw a girl who looked JUST like me only 75 lbs heavier. He had just seen me 2 days prior. Not sure when he thought I gained 75 lbs??

Alli Morgan said...

Chad Smith has said forever he'll sign autographs as Will Ferrell. Maybe he's trying to mess with Will by leaving bad tips, thinking it's funny? But he was def. my first thought for this one.

Amber said...

The "sleazy" and "bigger jerk than usual" descriptors certainly fit Mayer's rep.

Anonymous said...

Chad's owned up to this, I think the NE just spiced it up to make it a blind item.

SpunkyPR said...

Is Chad Smith known for singing or drumming? The blind says "sleazy singer" and really, Will Ferrell A-list actor?

Snapdragon said...

Holy cow... the resemblance between those two (Will Ferrell/Chad Smith) is UNCANNY.

This one makes me laugh in a "not sure if trolling or just stupid" sort of way: http://www.lolwtfcomics.com/upload/uploads/1329223140.jpg

LOL DeenSnider and Sarah jessica Parker! hahaha

FSP - too funny!!!

Grace & Maeby said...

Definitely Johnny Depp/John Mayer. Google the two names and you'll see a ton of comparisons. Chad Smith/Will Ferrel look IDENTICAL but Chad Smith isn't a singer, and everyone knows John Mayer is Sleazy McGreaseballs.

OverIt said...

@Cornbread Holy Shit! They look exactly ALIKE! (Chad Smith and Will Ferrell)

hunter said...

I'M BACK - really should have posted my first guess (John Mayer) but I had no clue who actor could be - isn't he twice the size of Johnny Depp???

That said, I followed the google images and am inclined towards the Chad Smith guy.

LOL @ FSP, hilarious. :)

Comma Chaser said...

It doesn't say singer, just grammy-winning musician. RHCP has won at least one grammy at this point.

Totally think it's Chad Smith. Those two are brothers, I don't care what anyone says.

Anonymous said...

It's Mayer impersonating Depp. "The sleazy singer likes to be a bigger jerk than usual" is the tip-off (Chad Smith not being a high profile jerk nor a singer).

Mayer likes to pretend he's changed but of course he hasn't. He's still a major douche and I have no idea who's actually buying his crappy album.

commandeered said...

@Insiderman

Do you think that Jack White looks like Johnny Depp?

Just Another Girl said...

Adam Levine and Christian Bale?

ms snarky said...

Adam Levine is an excellent idea. Def got the sleazy rep!

commandeered said...

Levine doesn't have a grammy, does he?

I think it's mayer/depp. He fits the sleezy description

crila16 said...

@Amber...Lol. So true.

WUWT? said...

Taylor Hicks looks a little George Clooneyish, with the gray hair and all. Not sure if the rest fits (is Taylor a jerk?).

JW said...

Probably not Chad Smith.

SueRH said...

Definitely John Mayer/Johnny Depp. Google image that combo.

Sadie said...

i Immediately thought John Mayer/Johnny Depp too!

Just Another Girl said...

Maroon 5 has three Grammys according to Wikipedia. But after seeing the picture of Mayer in the story posted today, I think it's him.

figgy said...

Ha, affirming the Chad Smith--Will Ferrell guess:

http://allwomenstalk.com/celebrities-who-look-alike/chad-smith-and-will-ferrell/

But is Chad smith really "sleazy" and "a jerk"?

sifichick said...

My first thought was Ethan Hawke & the guy from Sugar Ray. Those two could be twins.

bored soccer mom said...

Bono and Robin Williams.

RenoBlondee said...

Holy shit balls! I googled Chad Smith images and I had to make sure I didn't accidentally type in Will Ferrell! They ARE the same person. LOL Crazy!

FrenchGirl said...

John Mayer /Johnny Depp is my guess but why not Adam Levine/Christian Bale if Levine doesn't speak (Bale has a british accent)

Shit You Can't Buy said...

But but but but Chad isn't sleazy:(

Kelly Simmons said...

Okay, just want to say you guys are on fire today, laffs-wise. :-) thanks!

astrogirl said...

FFS people sleazy singer does not fit Chad it has to be Mayer or maybe Levine.

MadLyb said...

You guys are amazing! It would've taken me days to even think of Mayer/Depp.

henny said...

Fsp ftw

henny said...

Fsp ftw

Robert said...

I don't know if he's a singer, but Skeet Ulrich has always struck me as the poor man's Johnny Depp...

DoYogaFeelGreat said...

Not sure, but I hope Mr. Movie Star kicks Mr. Sleazy Singer's ass.

DoYogaFeelGreat said...

Oh, especially if it's doucheface Meyer insulting Johnny Depp.

DisembodiedThumb said...

Agree with Mayerdouche/Depp.

This reminds me - one night back in the '90s some friends and I were at a music club and the guitarist for Metallica, Kirk Hammett, was hanging out with a couple burly guys at a table next to us. I went up to the bar and the cocktail waitress told me excitedly "Hey Johnny Depp is here!". Took me a minute to realize she had mistaken Kirk for him, ha.

By the way Kirk was very nice; when he tripped over my friend's outstretched feet he stopped and apologized, while his bodyguards gave us a dirty look.

mooshki said...

I had a doppelganger in high school. She and I never met, but my friends were always running into her and getting confused. It was weird.

Marie said...

My first thought too - Mark McGrath?

Even TMZ thought they were the same person. The camera guy chased one of 'em down the street yelling the other guys name.

DontRainOnMyPrada said...

Mooshki--Weird that you yourself never got to see your own doppelgänger...,(cue "Psycho" music)....

Dave Mathews and Jeremy Piven
