Taylor Swift performed at the Academy of Country Music Awards back on April 7, as did ex-boyfriend John Mayer, and sources are now revealing that Swift was not pleased with the situation. Swift, 23, and Mayer, 35, dated for a short time in 2010, with Swift writing her infamous song "Dear John" about him after the breakup. Of the song, Mayer stated , It made me feel terrible. Because I didnt deserve it. Im pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do. Apparently there are still hard feelings present on Swift's end. According to Us Weekly , Mayer was scheduled to perform first at the ACM's, prompting Swift to put on "a stink," insisting that "she had to go on earlier than him," a source revealed. Swift ultimately got her way, but "was just really bitter that night," another source adding, "John just being there irked her." image: MTV/image.net
