John Mayer appears on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today, and the newly single musician briefly opens up about his split from Katy Perry before moving on to chat about his upcoming tour.

When asked whether he was no longer with Katy, John replied, "Correct," and added, "Listen, it was a very private relationship going in. It was a private relationship during and it’s a private relationship, still. I can understand asking the question based on some previous answers I have given but I have finally learned how to put the wall between one thing and the other. I’ve been much happier since then. I’m on the same journey as everyone else. Coupling is a tricky thing ... I want everyone to be happy."

John also gives his first television performance in three years of his single “Something like Olivia” from his new CD Born and Raised, and he also surprised the audience with a pair of tickets to his concert at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine this summer ... check out the clip below!
