Some time ago, one guy found a very old photo of a man who looked just like Nicolas Cage, concluding that he must be a vampire to have preserved his looks so well. On Letterman the other day, the actor laughed off those rumors.

As the video above shows, Cage was a guest on Letterman, to promote the upcoming film “Ghost Rider 2.”

Among other things, he talked about the allegations that he’s a vampire, which he obviously denied, saying they were ridiculous.

While the video above is fun, even more fun is reading the comments to this video on websites like YouTube.

Of course he’s going to deny he’s a vampire, fans with a healthy sense of humor say: he would be stupid if he admitted to his immortality, because that would only make people come after him and drive a stake through his heart.

“Of course he doesn't hang out with Cher. Two immortals spending time together would raise too many questions,” one commenter says, while another opines that the best way to check if Cage is a vampire would have been to bring a mirror to “test” him.
