Though the two have openly said that they are no more than close friends, Robert Pattinson and Katy Perry seem to be dancing around the dating floor with how they act towards each other.

Ever since Robert Pattinson's publicized break-up with actress Kristen Stewart, rumors that he has his eyes on pop star Katy Perry have been running around the rumor mill. The friendship between the Twilight star and the chart topper has always been public and ruled as platonic, but sometimes they can't keep their affection under wraps.

According to a report, a drunk Robert Pattinson yelled "she's so f*cking hot!" to one of his friends, clearly referring to Katy Perry when they were both present in a party. The party was said to have held right after the Los Angeles premiere of Pattinson's latest film, The Rover.

Page Six reported that a source, also present in the party, revealed that the two were "heavily flirting."

"They were heavily flirting. At one point, Robert sauntered to the bar with a pal and was heard saying, 'She's so [bleeping] hot,' nodding in Katy's direction," said the source in the report by Page Six.

The two are always seen together even in past events. During last year's Coachella, Pattinson and Perry are seen to be hanging out in the same crowd, with the two even suggesting dates for each other. It's no big surprise if the two end up dating each other because of the history they have with each other.
