The movie star revealed he and the late actor had the same taste in the ladies.

2 Fast 2 Furious star Tyrese Gibson has opened up about how he and the late Paul Walker had the same taste in women.

The 44-year-old actor sat down to chat with The Morning Hustle radio show to talk about their shared lover Cindy Leon.

"She’s a beautiful girl," he said, referring to Eva Mendes' stunt-double.

He added: "Me and Paul were smashing the same girl on the set of 2 Fast 2 Furious and didn’t even know it.

"It was Eva Mendes’ stunt double, and we were both just complimenting this girl every day and for whatever reason, we just didn’t say we were both smashing the same girl."

We'd describe those comments as 'charming and classy'. Please note the strong side-helping of shade.

So much for don't kiss and tell.

Anyway, the two men eventually realised they were chasing the same woman when they had an incredible verbose conversation about it, as per Gibson's retelling,

He said: "Then we told each other. He was like, 'Yeah?' I was like, 'Yeah'."

The radio show hosts then asked if either one stopped sleeping with Leon when they found out about the situation.

He replied: "I don’t think we stopped."

Gibson had previously opened up how his and Walker's shared - ahem - experience while on the press circuit for Furious 7.

Gibson said, as per Yahoo Entertainment: "[Walker] was casual about it. He was just like, ‘Yeah I was just with her last night. I said, ‘I was with her last night!’ It was a bromance forever after that because we had the same taste in women."

That was after Gibson initially spoke out about his and Walker's shared tryst in 2015 on The View.

Leon admitted soon after in an interview of her own.

She revealed when the two men realised they were both seeing her, it led to an unbreakable bond between the two fellas.

"It seems like it's pretty much how they started bonding. You know how boys can be, they either fight about it or become best friends," she said, as per RadarOnline.

She went on to call Walker 'sweet and loving' and said it was 'surreal' to be spending time with him.

Leon also added she doesn't have 'have any regrets' about her correlating relationships with the two men that only went for a 'couple [of] weeks'.

But it wasn't the first time Gibson wound up with a woman with eyes for Walker.

According to Complex, Gibson's partner Zelie Timothy was initially more interested in the late star.

"My type was actually Paul Walker. Rest in peace,” she said.
