Will 'Dear John' Stay Mum or Respond to Taylor Swift?

By Rob Shuter Posted Oct 21st 2010 09:00PM

Taylor Swift stunned everyone this week when she graced the cover of PEOPLE and told all about her relationships with Joe Jonas and Taylor Lautner. Now, what has everyone on the edge of their seats is how notorious kiss-and-teller John Mayer is going to respond to what Taylor is probably saying about him in her new song, 'Dear John.'

"Don't you think I was too young to be messed with," Taylor asks in the song (talking about the 33-year-old John?). "Maybe it's you and your sick need to give love and take it away."

There have long been rumors that the two were romantically involved in 2009 while collaborating on 'Half of My Heart,' a track from his last album.

Everyone knows John "loves publicity and lives for this" type of situation, a giddy friend of John's tells me. "She can bet that right now he is sitting in his apartment thinking of some witty way to respond. Writing a response to 'Dear John' called 'Dear Taylor' would be too obvious, so expect something much bigger than that."

And although John's friend has no idea exactly what the crooner will do, his history with the ladies should give Taylor reason to worry. Who can forget the explicit details he gave about Jessica Simpson in a Playboy interview in February. Or how he held a presser to tell the world about his ugly breakup with America's sweetheart Jennifer Aniston.

"Sure Taylor has a right to say whatever she wants but she needs to know she is playing with fire," an insider tells me. Taylor writes, "Don't you think nineteen's too young to be played by your dark, twisted games when I loved you so?"

Yes I do, sweet Taylor, and let's just hope the man you are writing about does too. Although given his track record I wouldn't hold your breath.

The poor girl falls in love with every guy that shows her any attention apparently...every song she has is about some guy breaking her heart...maybe she should focus on herself for awhile...or will that ruin her career because she'll have nothing to say?! Love her but just saying...

Taylor Swift needs to grow up & quit writing songs about the guys who break her immature little heart. And, maybe, she really does need to listen to her momma since she acts like she is 12. Just saying...

Y'know, my friend's mom used to say if you can't keep a man maybe it's not the men. And if she was so damn fresh and innocent she should have never been trying to get with a 33 year old man. It's Kanye all over again, only this time everyone's not jumping all over John cause he's white, too.

By denverkenr

John, please stay in the studio, write songs and keep your mouth shut about your "Private Life" (yea,right!) We are sick of you!

its a great soap story, she writes songs for those who understand her message, and he plays lyrics through his songs to those who are willing to cope with mending a broken heart.They are both wonderful people with great imaginations. cheers
