John Mayer Responds To Getting Hate From Taylor Swift Fans

November 16, 2021 / Posted by:

Way back in 2009 John Mayer (then 32) dated Taylor Swift (then 19). The next year Taylor released the song Dear John on her third album, Speak Now, which was “allegedly” about her brief stay at Casa del Slimy-Starfucker. Over the years passionate Swifties have come for John online, and it seems their hate was reignited after last week’s release of Red (Taylor’s Version). John’s been getting tons of rude DMs, and he responded to one teen Swifty who wrote, “fuck yourself you ugly bitch i hope you choke on something.” My knee-jerk reply would be something super-cool like, “Your dad’s dick is too small for me to choke on!” but John’s “curious mind” opted for a more mature discussion. Blah blah blah!

Here’s 44-year-old John Mayer’s back-and-forth with a 15-year-old Swifty:

Swifty: fuck yourself you ugly bitch i hope you choke on something
<3

answer me you bitch

John: Hi Alondra, it’s John. I’ve been getting so many messages like these the past couple of days. I decided to choose your message at random to reply to. You can feel free to screen shot, share in any way you like if you want. I’m not upset, I just tend to have a curious mind and feel compelled to ask. Do you really hope that I die?

Swifty: OMG WHAT i don’t want you to DIE

*sends 30-second voice note with audio*

i’m sorry

John: it’s okay.

I wanted to understand. So it’s a fun thing people are doing without taking into account that I might see it and be affected by it?

Swifty: yeah, i guess nobody really thought you would see it or answer since you are famous and don’t interact with random people. again, very sorry!!

John: There was some healing here today!*
*editors note: UGGGGHHHH

It’s 100 percent okay. Go forth and live happy and healthy!

Swifty: just a warning that people are probably going to be 1000x meaner when speak now taylor’s version is released so take care of yourself

Here are the screenshots, which the teen Swifty Alondra released on her own:

The last slide shows a comment from Alondra that says:

people are hating on me. i wanted to let you guys know that i’m only 15 so let’s not send death death threats to me. also i apologized to john many times. i didn’t expect him to see my message he saw it 2 minutes after i sent it right before i was gonna delete it.

Listen, 15-year-old fans are gonna do what 15-year-old fans do. Thank God Instagram didn’t exist when I was 15, or Anthony Stewart Head (Giles from Buffy) would have been the recipient of a lot of horny DMs from an underage girl with daddy issues. Luckily these thoughts were contained to the now-defunct IMDb message boards. Phew!

But back to the Swifties. If John Mayer is getting this kind of hate, I can’t imagine how Jake Gyllenhaal’s week is going. I’d tell him to relieve some stress with a glass of wine and a bubble bath, but, as we all know, Jakey doesn’t bathe.
