Ellen DeGeneres sat down and chatted with Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer recently. Jen played coy with the talk show host, but Ellen ended up getting a juicy confession from John. While the singer was discussing light switches and the unique décor in Jennifer's home, John let it slip that he has been in the star's home in the middle of the night. Ellen then playfully asked the singer, if the two have "sleepovers"? "Yeah there are sleepovers," John admitted reluctantly. "Yes, yes there are." In a separate taping of the show, Jennifer laughed when Ellen showed her a photo of her beau and asked if he would attend her 40th birthday party. Ellen then pulled out a different picture of John wearing Borat's infamous risque swimsuit, and the 'He's Just Not That Into You' star looked away and blushed!
