Talk about animal magnetism! Robert Pattinson's Vanity Fair photoshoot with Annie Liebovitz was always going to be one good-lookin' series, but we went weak in the knees when we saw that the star had rounded out his cover photo by donning a fedora and getting amorous with an alligator. Or is it cuddling with a crocodile? We can never keep our reptiles straight.
Read an excerpt from Robert Pattinson's Vanity Fair interview.
Ah, yes—whether he's snuggling with a big lizard, taming a lion or just walking a really cute dog, there's just nothing hotter than a guy who can get down with the beasties... which is probably why "hot man with animal" is one of the favored ways to style a sexy male celeb. So today, we've put together a gallery of our favorite man-animal (manimal?) combos from magazine covers past! Don't miss out—we've got Daniel Radcliffe with a white owl; Kellan Lutz with his adorable dog; Sam Rockwell wearing a kitty cat; and Adam Lambert with an, uh, appropriately placed snake. And lots more!
