And it's a good week for John Mayer - after debuting his new album, Battle Studies, at the top of the album charts on Wednesday, the singer/songwriter's duet with Taylor Swift is the Hot 100's top debut - they're Half of My Heart enters the countdown at 25.
DIDDY WANTS ROLE ON 30 ROCK
Rap mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is eager to test his comedy credentials with a cameo role on hit U.S. TV series 30 Rock.
The hip-hop star loves the Tina Fey-created show and has become pals with 30 Rock funnymen Tracy Morgan and Jack McBrayer, and he's been lobbying the stars for a guest spot on the programme.
McBrayer says, "He is a big fan of 30 Rock and he's like, 'Can I be in the show?' and I was like, 'What if we played best friends?'"
Combs has previously showed off his acting skills with roles in 2008 TV movie A Raisin in the Sun, based on the play by Lorraine Hansberry, and a two-episode stint on TV crime drama CSI: Miami earlier this year.
