Jessica Simpson loses voice, starts rumors

So, Jessica Simpson had a whole host of appearances scheduled for this week to promote her new album (and here's hoping the album is better than that first song she pulled from it - Public Affair is awful if you ask me), but has had to cancel due to a throat infection or something.

No big deal in that, except that John Mayer has also lost his voice, which leads us to the rumours. From what I can tell, based purely on the fact that two singers have throat problems at the same time, US Weekly is running a story that the two are a couple now (presumably the "they caught it from each other snogging" is the premise here).

I'm sure if it's true, the story will run and run - maybe the fact that he has to put up with the dumb comments explains why Mr Mayer always looks like he's in serious pain when he sings?
