Jack Nicholson's Pick Up Line

Jack Nicholson has revealed his #1 pick-up line:

Jack told Heart FM DJ Harriet Scott: "You walk up to someone you like and you're feeling relaxed, they think, 'Oh, here comes the shark' and you say to them, 'When did you get pregnant?'

"You will have somebody off balance after that particular line."

Excuse me? He's freakin' Jack Nicholson. Wouldn't his #1 pick up line be: "Hi. I'm Jack Nicholson."?
