New York, NY -- Want to tick off Matt Damon? Ask him about his former career as a breakdancer.

Damon told gossip reporter Baird Jones at the premiere of the new film, "All The Pretty Horses" that he never breakdanced on the streets of Boston using the name "Matty D."

He claims the breakdancing rumors were fabricated by his friend, Casey Affleck and, to his horror, talk show hosts have been trying to get him to spin on his head ever since.

Meanwhile, Casey insists Matt really did breakdance as a teen and claims he's lying about his popping past because he fears it will hurt his career as a "serious actor."
