It's a trouble bubble for Taylor Swift as she has been sued by a country music DJ in Colorado, who was fired for touching the singer's butt.

According to sources, David Mueller has filed a lawsuit against the 25-year-old singer and has claimed that he was fired from his job at 98.5 KYGO over false allegations that he grabbed the singer's butt while taking a photo, reports E! Online.

According to the suit, Mueller and his girlfriend, Shannon Melcher, posed for a photo with Swift and the singer quickly put her right arm around Melcher's girlfriend and the DJ himself jumped into the picture at the last second.

However, a representative the 'Bad Blood' hit-maker said that the radio station was given evidence immediately after the incident and they made their independent decision.

Swift herself has yet to directly address the lawsuit or the DJ's claims on social media.
