Mayer praises Taylor Swift's attitude

Singer John Mayer has praised Taylor Swift, describing the singer and actress as "totally sweet".

Speaking to 'Access Hollywood', he said: "Taylor Swift is the last person to know she's Taylor Swift, which I think is totally sweet."

"It's almost like Taylor Swift is like a character in a movie about a small town girl who has her dreams come true and what any small town girl would do when their dreams come true is to freak out."

"I still like it that she freaks out, but pretty soon she's gonna have to stop because it's sort of like, 'You're that good. You're that good. You might have to go to therapy and have someone else tell you you're that good'."
