Why Do Robert Pattinson's Nipples Taste Like Mint?

Flirting 101, The Robert Pattinson Style: If you're going to hold someone's trunk, you gotta' make sure it's big.

Robert Pattinson has spoken about his "on-set" romance with Tai, the 9,000-pound Asian Elephant at a press conference for his new film, Water For Elephants.

The Twilight: Breaking Dawn star says, “I had a relationship with the elephant, but it was based purely on candy.” 

Hmm, there you go girls and fags, it ain't bestiality. 

He further reveals that he likes to suck on mints for a bit and then stick 'em onto his chest. 

 “So every time the elephant would be like constantly sniffing me, I’d be like, ‘I don’t know!’ She just really likes me! It’s crazy!’ Yeah, I think she was just sniffing around for (mints),” he adds

So don't be surprised if one of these days, you'll see Kristen Stewart's face dunked on Robert Pattinson's chest. No, she ain't sucking his nipples, she's just having a mint break. The F!  


Water for Elephants will hit theaters on April 21, 2011.
