America’s Sweetheart, country star Taylor Swift, has sparked whispers that she is dating womanizing musician John Mayer after the pair were spotted dining together at an Italian bistro in Santa Monica on Jan. 6. The former boyfriend of everybody — who is 12 years her senior — invited young Taylor to duet with him on the single “Half of My Heart” – now Star Magazine insists the crooners are doing “intimate dinners” by candlelight.
“They came in together and got a private table in a corner of the restaurant,” a spywitness at Il Ristorante di Giorgio Baldi blabbed to the tab. “They seemed to really enjoy each other’s company. They definitely looked like a couple,” the source adds. “John was telling stories and she was hanging on his every word.”
