Dita's Brand New Bloke?

Russell Brand and Dita Von TeeseSo, how long does it take Russell Brand to score something off a lady?

Well, let's ask Dita Von Teese.

What did Russ weasel out of her?

Her digits, that's what.

Because according to The Sun, Russ bumped into Dita at a pre-Oscars bash in Los Angeles and within half an hour he had her mobile number.

He told the paper: "I saw Dita Von Teese at the Chateau Marmont hotel. At the risk of looking incontinent, I walked past her several times to the toilet to get her attention.

"Eventually she saw me and we started chatting. I was saying some brilliantly funny things, slowly tempting her into my web."

Crikey Russ, hope you didn't talk like that to her, it's kinda, well, scary talk.

He went on to say: "I was thinking to myself 'You like Marilyn Manson? You like weirdos? I'll give you weirdos.

"Androgynous freaks is it? It was going well and she goes 'Would you like my number? Call me any time you are bored.'

"I said 'I wouldn't have to be bored to ring you, darlin'."

He went to reveal he sent Ms Teese a text later on and she replied telling him: "You have a way with words."

So, should Cupid be preparing to shoot those love arrows?

We're waiting in anticipation.
