The last time I've been to Shangri-La was last February this year. The hotel is such an exquisite place with a very hospitable staff. The room was so serene, though not that amazingly lavish, it is oozing with calmness and sense of luxury.
And then, John Mayer and his entourage trashed the majestic Presidential Suite with a whopping USD 8,000 worth of property damages.
John Mayer visited the country this month and it was the talk of the town. I listen to him, but I am not a fan. I think he is overrated. And this news, if ever this is absolutely true, is absolutely nerve-wracking. And so is this photo.
The EDSA Shangri-La administration released an official report that the incident is not true. Contradicting previous reports that JM had a major diva moment sounds like a defensive statement. Indeed, this will put EDSA Shangri-La in a bad situation, no matter how bad the artist is. It is because, the customer has all the right and the luxury to do whatever he wants. Nevertheless, I hope the EDSA Shangri-La hotel didn't kiss ass on this one. They should have been firm on claiming this is true and kick John Mayer's ass. Sometimes, there is this artist temperament that we need to contain if it is in the expense of respect and good conduct.
