Taylor Lautner sets gay rumours straight

Los Angeles: Taylor Lautner has often been the subject of gay rumours but the `Twilight` hunk says he is straight and likes dating only women.

The 19-year-old actor, has dated such women as `Abduction` costar Lily Collins, singer Taylor Swift and high school sweetheart Sara Hicks. But back in June, Lautner was spotted dining in downtown LA with acclaimed director Gus Van Sant and Oscar-winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, both of whom happen to be gay. He was asked about the night out in a new magazine interview and, whether Black, 37, or Van Sant, 59, hit on him, reported Us magazine. "No, definitely not. I think they know I`m straight. But they`re great guys. They`re a lot of fun," said Lautner. Last month, Lautner and actress Collins, 22, ended their romance shortly before `Abduction`s red carpet premiere. He and singer Swift, 21, dated for three months in late 2009. PTI
