John Mayer set off a flurry of angry tweets when his now controversial interview with Playboy was posted on the magazine’s website earlier this week. Believe it or not [sarcasm] he isn’t the first nor will he be the last celebrity to voice their opinion on the swirl.

“It’s not that I prefer black girls, but that’s who I find myself relating to as a human being. I am also attracted to really ghetto girls, straight out the hood…a thickey, a real ‘pass the hot sauce’ type girl.” – Jon B., VIBE, 1998

“I don’t care if she’s a Mexican, a whore or whatever. It’s not because she’s black, it’s because we use the word nigger sometimes here. I’m not gonna take a chance ever in life of losing everything I’ve worked for for 30 years because some fucking nigger heard us say nigger and turned us in to the Enquirer magazine. Our career is over! I’m not taking that chance at all! Never in life! Never! Never!…It’s that we use the word nigger. We don’t mean you fucking scum nigger without a soul. We don’t mean that shit. But America would think we mean that. ” – Dog The Bounty Hunter, National Enquirer, 2007

“My boys would give me junk about it, but [the white girls'] head game is on a different level.” – Polow Da Meerkat, Complex, 2007

“If it wasn’t for race mixing, there would be no video girls. Me and most of my friends like mutts a lot…yeah in the hood they call them mutts.” – Kanye West, Essence, 2006
