"Who knew John Mayer was such a Bachelor buff?\r\nDuring an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres show earlier this week, Mayer bonded with DeGeneres about his obsession with the reality show. After a pal stayed on him to give the series a chance, Mayer, 34, said he finally caved and started watching during &amp;quot;the Brad Womack year.&amp;quot;\r\n&amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t even feel like it&amp;apos;s my fault for liking it,&amp;quot; the &amp;quot;Half of My Heart&amp;quot; singer says. &amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s not a guilty pleasure. It&amp;apos;s designed to be a pleasure.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nExplained Mayer, &amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s like a producer&amp;apos;s game. I wouldn&amp;apos;t be as excited to meet a cast member as I&amp;apos;d be to meet the guy who cuts that show. They have to ask someone like Ben [Flajnik] like, &amp;apos;Okay, Ben, we need you to walk out on the balcony without a shirt and just think.&amp;apos;&amp;quot;\r\nThe Grammy winner even busted out his Ben Flajnik impression when DeGeneres asked for his opinion on last season&amp;apos;s controversial final rose recipient, Courtney Robertson.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;There was nothing you could say to [Ben] to not pick Courtney. Girls were coming up to him, like, &amp;apos;I watched Courtney rip somebody&amp;apos;s face off.&amp;apos; And he&amp;apos;d go, &amp;apos;I&amp;apos;ll take that under consideration,&amp;apos;&amp;quot; Mayer joked.\r\n&amp;quot;What if they come to you and say, &amp;apos;Would you be the Bachelor?&amp;apos;&amp;quot; DeGeneres asked her guest.\r\n\r\nThe unlucky-in-love crooner--who has had high-profile romances with A-listers like Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston--paused before replying.\r\n&amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s one of those things where I would waste their time taking a meeting, just so I could hear more about it,&amp;quot; he shares. &amp;quot;Ultimately I&amp;apos;d say no. But I would just have to take the meeting.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
