"The thing that impressed me with the media is that because they wrote about it, my mates believed it. The fact that people can believe it makes me feel like a bit of a stud, you know?"
He went on to add that he would never date Taylor out of respect for pal Hazza, claiming: "I've got to be honest because one of my best friends did date her. I'm not that kind of guy.
"But the fact that people believed it impressed me a little bit."
