Gabourey Sidibe didn't get to take Justin Timberlake to the Oscars, but she did enjoy a red carpet encounter with another of her Hollywood crushes, Gerard Butler.

Gabby told Access Hollywood that she met Gerard for the first time Saturday night but botched things up when she stepped on his foot.

But she got a second chance on Sunday when she saw him on the red carpet.

"He's kinda sexy," Gabby told Billy Bush. "I'd hit that."

Then Gerard entered the frame and Billy asked Gabby to repeat herself.

"I kinda said, 'I'd hit that.' I'm not ashamed," she said as Gerard looked on, pleasantly surprised. "I'd hit that. I'm sorry."

"I'm here, I'm available," Gerard said. "Let's go!"'

Gabourey!

I was in shock when I read this article today. I just can't believe the things that come out of people's mouth. I just had to share this with the rest of you. What do you guys think?

People Who Actually Know What They're Talking About Slam Dumbass John Mayer

…and here comes the backlash!!

After carelessly insulting and generalizing African Americans for what we hope was just his incessant need to have people pay attention to him, John Mayer has really effed himself.

Now people who actually know what they're talking about are weighing in the douchebag, and it's not pretty.

Kathryn Russell-Brown, director of the Center for the Study of Race and Race Relations at the University of Florida, says that Mayer seems to be saying "black women are not just not his type, they're not in his class. They're beneath him."

Laurie L. Mulvey, co-director of the Race Relations Project at Penn State University says:

"Both white people and people of color will be offended by Mayer commenting so flippantly about an issue that has caused so much pain in this culture, especially to black women. Choosing to invoke David Duke to explain these ethnocentric escapades flies in the face of Mayer's self-congratulatory claim that he has a 'Benetton heart.'"

We think Richard T. Ford, author of The Race Card: How Bluffing About Bias Makes Race Relations Worse, says it best when he sums up Mayer as "being deliberately provocative and since he assures us that black people love him — thanks for letting us know — it's supposed to be okay."

He continues:

"Sarah Silverman does post racist very adroitly — she's both hilarious and thought provoking. Mayer does it badly — he's offensive and tiresome. Tragically, this is what passes for edginess for many celebrities today — someone blurting out the most crude and insulting thing that comes to what we might charitably call his 'mind.' Mayer did say one smart in the interview: 'I think the world would be better off if I stopped doing interviews.' Amen."

AGREED!! He has no business making comments like that!! He's not funny and he has no idea what he's talking about - he's just brash and desperately trying to be edgy.

It's a disgusting shame. And worse - he's probably getting OFF on all this press!
