John Mayer Taylor Swift

John Mayer Taylor Swift, John Mayer was ‘humiliated’ by Taylor Swift’s song about him.The guitarist was reportedly the inspiration behind his former lover’s track ‘Dear John’ – which came out a few months after he was slammed for branding ex-girlfriend Jessica Simpson ‘S-EX-ual napalm’ – but he is upset about the record, saying it was a ‘lousy’ thing to write.

He told Rolling Stone magazine: ‘I was really caught off-guard, and it really humiliated me at a time when I’d already been dressed down. I mean, how would you feel if, at the lowest you’ve ever been, someone kicked you even lower?

‘It made me feel terrible. Because I didn’t deserve it. I’m pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do.’

The song was included on Taylor’s multi-million selling ‘Speak Now’ album, and features cutting lyrics, including: ‘Dear John, I see it all, now it was wrong / Don’t you think 19 is too young / to be played by your dark twisted games, when I loved you so?’

John had a brief relationship with Taylor before ‘Speak Now’ came out, and shortly afterwards he took two years away from music to deal with some vocal problems.

The 34-year-old musician – who has also dated other beauties including Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Aniston – also took aim at Taylor for writing the song and it being so obviously about their relationship. (Sky News Australia)
