John Mayer shocked fans when he began dating Jessica Simpson, but it seems he really saw something special in her – a good soul and a love of Texas.

Simpson, who is currently dating Tony Romo of the Dallas Cowboys, is being blamed for the team’s recent losing streak. In a kind blog posted this week and addressed to “Dallas and Surrounding Areas,” Mayer defended his ex. Noting that it wasn’t meant as a publicity stunt, he said, “This is about doing what I think is right as a person, in this case speaking my mind.

“I have never known anyone to have more pride in their home state and their upbringing in it than Jessica Simpson has in Texas. I don’t really follow sports, but I have played some of my biggest and best concerts in your state, and having witnessed how dynamic the spirit there is, I’m betting emotions are running high right about now.

“All witty barbs, blogs, and fashion policing aside, that girl loves Texas more than you know. It’s one of her most defining traits as a person. So please don’t try and take that away from her. (You probably wouldn’t be able to, but it’s less work for all involved.)

“I just thought it would mean something coming from the guy who has the absolute least to gain from this. And if I’m out of line in having written it, too bad. I can spare a Wednesday’s worth of bad press if it means sticking up for a good soul.”

Mayer is currently rumoured to be dating “Friday Night Lights” star Minka Kelly.

Dallas Cowboys player Terrell Owens has apologized for the remarks he made about Jessica Simpson.

Simpson’s new quarterback boyfriend Tony Romo had the worst game of his career on Sunday with Simpson in the audience. Afterward, Romo’s teammate Owens stated, “Right now, Jessica Simpson is not a fan favorite in this locker room or in Texas Stadium.”

As Owens told the Dallas Morning News on Wednesday, “I tried to get [Romo] to call her so I can explain to her that she doesn’t really know me and that I can be funny. And that everything I say, the media will take it and run with it. It’s not a big deal. I will try to rectify the situation between her and I.”
