Jennifer Aniston's former lover has kept quiet for the past year and we're thrilled about it!

Here's Johnny Depp John Mayer - who in February of last year compared ex Jessica Simpson to "sexual napalm" - at LAX boarding a flight to NYC on Tuesday. He recently performed on the Grammys this past Sunday singing "Jolene" with Keith Urban and Norah Jones.

Props to him for promising to stay out of the limelight... and actually following through.
