Liam Neeson is nothing but puzzled by one of the biggest pop culture crazes of the moment.
During a recent interview with Fox News, the 73-year-old actor was shown a photo of a Labubu toy and was asked what it was.
“I have no clue. No,” a baffled Neeson quickly replied, shaking his head. “Seriously, I don't know.”
When he was told that the photo featured a Labubu, the Naked Gun star continued to appear completely bewildered. “Okay,” he then said. “It’s a fluffy doll. Or, can you eat it?”
While Neeson may not be part of the Labubu fan club, the toys are a viral phenomenon around the world. A number of celebrities have even gotten in on the craze, including BLACKPINK's Lisa, Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, Dua Lipa and David Beckham.
Created by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung, Labubus are sold by Pop Mart, which describes the toys as being "a devilish but cute monster with pointed ears, a charmingly mischievous smile, and very sharp teeth."

The colorful, collectible dolls, which are often sold in blind bags, can be hooked to purses and bags as quirky accessories and charms.
Aside from his hilarious response to his first encounter with Labubus, Neeson has been making headlines recently for his romance with his Naked Gun costar, Pamela Anderson. PEOPLE first confirmed that the two were dating in July, with a source revealing that their relationship was "in the early stages."

"It's sincere, and it's clear they're smitten with each other," the insider said.
Since going public with their romance, the pair have been showered with support from family and friends. Neeson's 28-year-old son, Daniel, gave his stamp of approval when his dad and Anderson, 58, made a joint appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Aug. 3.

"Right, Danny?" Cohen asked, to which Daniel replied, "Yes!" with a big smile.
Jamie Lee Curtis got choked up in an interview with VT earlier this month as she shared her hope that Anderson, her costar in The Last Showgirl, has found love with Neeson.
"If love has found [its] way into that relationship, God bless them both," she said. "Because both of them have had hardship, and they're both beautiful human beings. And if they actually have found an intimate love with each other, we should all go to bed tonight feeling better."
Doug Mand, who co-wrote The Naked Gun reboot, told The Hollywood Reporter he's "pulling for the two of them in a big way," as he recalled how Neeson and Anderson had "immediate chemistry" on the movie's set.
“They liked each other. You only dream that your two costars are connecting on that level,” he told the outlet in an interview published on Aug. 5.
