Taylor Swift applauds Bieber prank

Taylor Swift admits Justin Bieber's Punk'd prank was "well played".

The popular MTV show returned for the first time since 2007 last night. Justin appeared as the guest host on the show – which is normally fronted by renowned prankster Ashton Kutcher.

Taylor was the first victim of the series. Justin invited the country singer to a Malibu beach house for a songwriting session, where a wedding was taking place.

The Canadian singer conned the beauty into setting off fireworks that appeared to cause a nearby boat –which was hosting the nuptials - to catch fire.

Taylor was seen looking devastated and exclaimed: "This is completely not okay."

The star took to her Twitter page to laugh about the show after she'd watched her appearance.

"Well played, @justinbieber. I was truly terrified (sic)," she quipped on the social networking site.

Miley Cyrus also featured on the show, believing she was there to punk Justin. However the starlet was sadly mistaken. While Miley thought she was on hand to set up some skate boarders to harass the heartthrob about his car, Justin made it look like he snapped and started jokingly beating up the children.

Meanwhile, Justin insists he doesn't feel threatened by the prospect of payback. The 18-year-old thinks he can avoid any type of prank.

"I'm unpunkable first of all," he smiled in an interview with Access Hollywood.
