John Mayer just proved that celebrities see messages sent to their social media accounts.
Following Taylor Swift‘s recent release of Red (Taylor’s Version) and the 10-minute-long version of her breakup anthem “All Too Well,” fans attacked her ex-boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal on social media, who the song is rumored to be about.
Swifties have now begun to speculate about her next re-recorded album. Some believe that the next record will be the 2010 Speak Now album, which features the infamous song, “Dear John,” which is presumably about the “Gravity” singer. The two dated back in 2009 and 2010 when Swift was 19 and Mayer was 32.
In screenshots shared by @deux.discussions allegedly between Mayer and @hoeforlouaylor, the 15-year-old slid into Mayer’s DMs to send a death threat.
“F— yourself you ugly b—- I hope you choke on something,” Alondra wrote before adding, “answer me you b—-.”
Instead of blocking her or just ignoring the message, Mayer apparently actually took the time to respond to discover why a person that he’s never met would say such a thing to him.
“I’ve been getting so many messages like these the past couple days,” Mayer reportedly answered. ”I’m not upset. I just tend to have a curious mind and feel compelled to ask. Do you really hope that I die?”
Alondra immediately felt bad and clarified that she doesn’t actually want him to die before sending a voice message apologizing for her actions.
“It’s okay. I wanted to understand,” he responded. ”So it’s a fun thing people are doing without taking into account that I might see it and be affected by it?”
Alondra admitted that she believed that he wouldn’t see the negative messages or if he did, that he wouldn’t actually take the time to reply to them.
Despite her cruel words, Mayer forgave her and said that it was “100 percent okay” because at the end of the day, there was “some healing” taking place.
“Go forth and live happy and healthy,” he added.
Alondra concluded their conversation by warning Mayer that Swifties are “probably going to be 1000x meaner when Speak Now Taylor’s Version is released” and to take care of himself.
