The former Friends actress, who was photographed in Mexico with the Scottish hunk, reportedly flew the film crew down with her to capture the saucy pictures.

The media was initially fooled by Gerard and Jen canoodling but now reports say it was all set up by the actress, OK! Magazine revealed.

Just weeks before the release of their new film The Bounty Hunter, Jen wanted to capitalise on rumours of a fling with Butler and made sure every bikini shot was showing off her best angle, the magazine reported.

When confronted about flying the film crew to Mexico, she told Access Hollywood: “These people survive on us coming down and spending money.

“It sort of made sense to say: Hey, let’s help out Mexico.”

Earlier in the week reports said Jen thought the sex with Gerard was ‘amazing’ but now it seems her alleged sexual escapades were a sham.

Singer John Mayer has always enjoyed quite a solid reputation of a loudmouth, though never before has he put his foot in his mouth like he did in a recent interview we were also telling you about. Presumably with the intention of making it his most honest interview ever, Mayer started dishing details of his relationships with Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston, much to the shock and humiliation of both.

Two of this week’s tabloids have covers precisely with this, as Cover Awards can confirm, though one chooses to talk of Jessica Simpson alone, while the other claims both feel as if they had just been “stabbed in the heart” by Mayer, a man whom they once loved and trusted. As it happens, given the backlash and media frenzy the Mayer interview has generated, neither OK! Magazine nor Star might actually be that far from the truth.

“Jessica Simpson was stunned on Feb. 10 when she awoke to a flood of texts, e-mails and Tweets asking if she had seen ex-flame John Mayer’s interview. ‘Jessica was shocked,’ a pal of the singer tells OK!. ‘She was really [upset] at first when she heard about it, then she read the whole interview, and the first thing that she said was, I’m annoyed John would sink so low’.” OK! magazine writes. The aforementioned interview would be the same one in which Mayer gave lurid details of their life behind closed doors, comparing her to “napalm” and “cocaine” in bed.

Star magazine, though, says the two stunners are not about to give up the fight without at least causing a ruckus, as if that was something they would ever do. The cover reads in screaming caps, “Jen & Jessica, Stabbed in the heart! John kisses & tells… everything. Now it’s revenge!” Further captions promise more startling revelations inside the magazine like, “Jen’s furious call to John; Jess freaks out; What THEY have on HIM,” as Cover Awards can confirm.

As we also informed you at the time, while Mayer really did air the dirty laundry on his affair with Simpson, he kept quite to himself about that with Jennifer Aniston, saying only that he had and continued to love her and that he would be forever sorry that things did not work out between them.

There we were thinking those pictures of Jennifer Aniston sunning herself on a Mexican beach were simply a treat as she celebrated her 41st birthday.

But apparently her stay at the $9,000-a-night villa at Cabo San Lucas wasn’t about enjoyment, it was for the good of the Mexican people.

John Mayer’s new song “Heartbreak Warfare” may not be about ex-girlfriend, Jennifer Aniston, but the rocker’s new album, Battle Studies is strongly influenced by his failed romance. Let’s face it Jen was too good for the goofy guitar genius.

Mayer began dating Aniston in April 2008 and the relationship sputtered to an end last January (09) after one brief reconciliation. John now confesses that his Twitter obsession helped drive them apart, something Jen complained about months ago.

“One of the most significant differences between us was that I was tweeting. There was a rumor I was dumped because I was tweeting too much. That wasn’t it,” he told Playboy magazine.

“She saw my involvement in technology as a courting distraction, and I always said, ‘These are the new rules.’”

Technology-wise, he said, Aniston is still grounded in 1998. That ultimately was the problem.

Mayer wrote much of his new album while dating the former “Friends” star and his thoughts on the romance made it into some of his song’s lyrics.

“There’s a level of honesty in that record that probably made her uncomfortable, but I couldn’t let that change the way I wrote songs,” he said.

But he draws the line on “Heartbreak Warfare.” Here’s a sampling of the lyrics:

Lightning strike
Inside my chest to keep me up at night
Dream of ways
To make you understand my pain Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It’s heartbreak warfare
Once you want it to begin
No one really ever wins
In heartbreak warfare

“I feel bad because people think ‘Heartbreak Warfare’ is about her. I wanna go on record saying it’s not. That woman would never use heartbreak warfare. That woman was the most communicative, sweetest, kindest person,” he told the magazine.

Mayer’s reputation definitely took a hit for the way the romance ended. He came across looking much shallower than his musical talent suggests.

“When people hear the record, I hope the songs make them think about their lives, not my life,” he says. “I don’t write songs in order to stick it to my exes.”
