John Mayer Debuts Short Hair After Splitting From Katy Perry

John Mayer debuted a new look when stepping out solo on Saturday, August 25, just a few days after he broke up with Katy Perry. The rock singer showed up at the SkyBar at the Mondrian in Los Angeles to help Mindy Kaling celebrate her new show "The Mindy Project".

Mayer reportedly got the haircut from Sally Hershberger on Friday afternoon at her salon in Los Angeles. The "Your Body Is Wonderland" hitmaker ditched his shaggy hair for a short-and-neat do. After exiting the salon, he reportedly took a moment to look at his new do in the sideview mirror of his Range Rover.


Rumor suggested it was Mayer who dumped Perry. "They weren't serious, but she was really starting to fall for him," a source close to the West Coast popstar told PEOPLE. "She wasn't seeing forever with him, but saw it lasting longer than it did."

"Katy likes the 'new' part of a relationship, when everything's exciting and you're getting to know the guy. So she wanted to continue experiencing that with John," the source continued dishing on. "They may go out again, even, just as friends."

On Thursday, both Mayer and Perry went out separately. The former hit Soho House in West Hollywood and flirted with some females, while the latter attended Ferras' show at Bootsy Bellows club with her close friend Markus Molinari.

John Mayer: Taylor Swift Song 'Made Me Feel Terrible'

Taylor Swift has never confirmed whether her song "Dear John" is about John Mayer, but the musician certainly thinks it is – and he's not a fan.

"It made me feel terrible," Mayer, 34, tells Rolling Stone in its latest issue.

"Because I didn't deserve it. I'm pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do."






Swift, 22, is known for writing songs about her exes, and in "Dear John," she sings, "Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?"

The song appears on the country superstar's 2010 album Speak Now, which was released shortly after she was briefly linked to Mayer.

Mayer himself recently issued a mea culpa regarding interviews he gave revealing intimate details of his relationships with Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston.

Of Swift's song, he tells Rolling Stone: "I never got an e-mail. I never got a phone call. I was really caught off-guard, and it really humiliated me at a time when I'd already been dressed down. I mean, how would you feel if, at the lowest you've ever been, someone kicked you even lower?"

Mayer also apparently takes issue with Swift as a musician.

"As a songwriter … I think it's kind of cheap songwriting," he tells Rolling Stone. "I know she's the biggest thing in the world, and I'm not trying to sink anybody's ship, but I think it's abusing your talent to rub your hands together and go, 'Wait till he gets a load of this!' That's bull––––."

John Mayer Hugs It Out with Fans at Album Release Event

Buckets of rain and oppressive humidity weren't enough to keep John Mayer fans from celebrating Born and Raised with the musician on the eve of the record's release Monday evening in New York City.

The man of the hour – toting an umbrella – greeted fans lined up outside of Reed Space on Orchard St., where a pop-up shop featuring photography and merchandise has been assembled for the week.

Mayer – who donned a t-shirt featuring lyrics to second single "Queen of California" once he spotted it for sale inside – mingled with friends, family and industry pals before settling down in the back corner with a pile of Sharpies, ready to meet the crowd gathered outside.

Admitted five at a time, hundreds of fans had their chance to greet the seven-time Grammy winner, who doled out hugs, posed for photos and signed everything from CD booklets to guitars.

Accepting letters and music, a mellow Mayer, 34, gave his full attention to each person who approached the table over the course of two hours.

"He looked like he was having a great time interacting with fans," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "Especially since he won't be able to tour."

The Born and Raised Store will remain open through May 27, with a portion of proceeds benefiting NCIRE, the veterans health research institute Mayer supports.
