During an appearance onTable for Two with Bruce Bozzion Wednesday, the talk show host revealed how his relationship with the “Wild Blue” singer is different from his other close pals.
“John Mayer is someone who is very in touch with his emotions,” Cohen, 54, told the host. “He very quickly in our friendship started saying, ‘You know what, I gotta tell you something — I love you.'”
He continued, “He is someone to say, ‘I love you and I cherish you and I cherish our friendship’ — just this stuff that straight guys aren’t necessarily supposed to say.”

In February, the 45-year-old guitaristhonored Cohen with a sweet speechat his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony.
“Andy really is the world’s friend. I’ve walked with him down city streets and been on FaceTime with him as he goes about his day, and each and every time he’s recognized, he’s said ‘hello’ to just like a friend. ‘What’s up Andy?’ ‘Hey Andy!’ ‘Lovedwhat you said about de Blasio!’ He’s alsomyfriend, my dear friend. And there are times in life when you just need a friend you can count on,” he said, in part.

“He’s a Madonna stananda Deadhead. He’s an A-lister, who parties like a B-lister, with the free spirit of a C-lister,” Mayer added. “I love Andy more than I can tell you. He’s a brilliant human being, a hilarious cohort, a loving son and brother — and more recently he’s become a proud, engaged and deeply devoted father.”
