All jokes aside. <\/span>Twilight <\/span><\/i>star and Taylor Swift<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s ex-boyfriend, Taylor Lautner<\/strong><\/a>, joked that he is \u201cpraying\u201d for John Mayer<\/a><\/strong> following the \u201cEnchanted\u201d singer\u2019s announcement surrounding <\/a><\/span>Speak Now (Taylor\u2019s Version)<\/span><\/i><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI think it\u2019s a great album. Yeah, I feel safe,\u201d Taylor, 31, told TODAY.com<\/a> on Tuesday, May 16. \u201cPraying for John.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The actor later clarified that his comment might not have been \u201cthe wisest thing to say.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI was definitely joking, but clearly it\u2019s taken off,\u201d he said the following day on <\/span>The Happy Hour on TODAY Show Radio<\/span><\/i> on SiriusXM.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Lautner\u2019s wife \u2013 also named Taylor Lautner<\/strong> (n\u00e9e Dome)<\/a> \u2013 jumped in on the fun, when she shared a hilarious video of the <\/span>Abduction <\/span><\/i>actor via TikTok<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201c#PrayforJohn,\u201d her caption read as Lautner slowly entered the frame in a white hotel rob and got down on his knees in a praying position. Swift\u2019s \u201cDear John\u201d \u2013 widely believed to be about her relationship with the \u201cNeon\u201d singer<\/a> \u2013 played in the background.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s like, \u2018That\u2019s gonna trigger the Swifties, or I mean, they were supportive of it,\u2019\u201d Lautner said of his wife on Wednesday\u2019s radio show. \u201cI personally think John is a very talented musician, but I am aware of a couple songs that were on that album.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The actor \u2013 who dated Swift, 33, in 2009 after meeting on the set of their film, Valentine\u2019s Day \u2013 later took to social media to share a hilarious video\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Pennsylvania native previously opened up about using the song as an apology, rather than her past breakup records.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cUp until now, I haven\u2019t really felt like I really needed to apologize to someone,\u201d she told Yahoo! Music in 2010. \u201cIt\u2019s just necessary.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Following her split from Lautner, Taylor moved on with the \u201cYour Body Is a Wonderland\u201d artist. While the pair only dated from December 2009 until February 2010, Taylor seemingly wrote one of her most bitter songs ever about their relationship.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Although she has never confirmed whom the song is about, John previously claimed the lyrics made him \u201cfeel terrible.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cBecause I didn\u2019t deserve it<\/a>. I\u2019m pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do,\u201d he told <\/span>Rolling Stone<\/span><\/i> in 2012. \u201cI never got an email. I never got a phone call. I was really caught off-guard, and it really humiliated me at a time when I\u2019d already been dressed down. I mean, how would you feel<\/a> if, at the lowest you\u2019ve ever been, someone kicked you even lower?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The <\/span>Midnights <\/span><\/i><\/a>artist<\/a> announced while on stage in Nashville during her \u201cEras Tour\u201d stop, that <\/span>Speak Now (Taylor\u2019s Version) <\/span><\/i>will be released on July 7 and will include six previously unreleased songs from the vault.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
