However, he now says he regrets the comments but he admits he did it to make himself look more exciting.

The 34-year-old star - who has previously dated Jennifer Aniston and Cameron Diaz - told TV show 'All Things Considered': "I had nothing to say. I was going through a time in my life where I didn't really want to share what was going on, but I didn't want to be boring."

"When you're just open, but not honest, then you start free-associating garbage. It doesn't mean I can go back and scrub it out, but I understand it now."

During the interview for Playboy magazine, John said of Jessica: "Yeah, that girl is like crack cocaine to me. Sexually it was crazy. That's all I'll say. It was like napalm, sexual napalm."

Jessica - who gave birth to her first child, daughter Maxwell Drew, with fiance Eric Johnson on May 1 - slammed John for making the comments saying they were inappropriate.

She added: "I don't want people to know how I am in bed!"
