Yesterday there was a flurry of internet activity that purported to show proof that 35 year old James Franco was trying to get a 17 year old female he met outside his Broadway play into a hotel room. The teen provided proof which was taken down from the hosting site, but is produced for you above. Thank you internet. I don't think any of us should be surprised that Franco hit on her. He will hit on anyone at any time. I am kind of shocked that she was into him. I'm guessing she probably wouldn't normally hit on other 35 year old men.
JF is a hard looking 35 these days.
ReplyDeleteHe looks dodgy as all get out. Is that really him or a doppleganger?
ReplyDeleteSeriously people -- does ANYTHING James Franco does, actually surprise us anymore? This is a non-story. Moving on.
ReplyDeleteI thought this was an April Fools joke actually
ReplyDeleteHe always looks smelly.
ReplyDelete17 is legal in NY. Complete non story.
ReplyDeleteHomeboy is persistent!
ReplyDeleteI know a 55-year old university professor who constantly hits on 18-year olds. He is single and sees nothing wrong with it, even though he claims to be a feminist who supports womens' rights. He wont' date any woman who is over 25. It is sick!
ReplyDeleteHow much didya pay for this?
ReplyDeleteI'd still make a bad decision.
If the legal age in NY is 17, as the Count says, then this is a little gross, but not illegal. Not a problem.
ReplyDeleteThe feel was abt enty btw not you guys <3
ReplyDeleteThe girl is pretty clued on for 17. She stung him good and proper.
ReplyDeleteThis is the New York Law below.
ReplyDeleteUnder 17 years of age: New York law states that a person less than 17 years of age is legally incapable of consenting to sexual intercourse or other sexual contact. These laws are typically known as statutory rape laws.
Lmao I can't
ReplyDelete@Gypsytrill: is that the guy from CA who lost his job and went into a mental hospital after the dick pic selfies and jack off video made it online. Crap, I forget the name. Hugo something?
ReplyDeleteSooo...this girl was actually legal, so this is a non-story.
ReplyDeleteAlso...did this girl even tell James Franco her age, or her real age? She may have lied to him, because a celeb was talking to her and she didn't want to chase him away. THen she used this as an opportunity to get her 15 min of fame.
The girl is Scottish, and legal age in the UK is 16. Franco is famous, not that gross, and really, its no big deal.
ReplyDeletenevermind...she did say her age. Whatever...still a non-story.
ReplyDeleteI love that he appears to be giving her the finger, while also providing proof of life. What a charmer
ReplyDeleteHe's a jizz whistling turd pocket, but when I was 17, (hell, 15), I would have banged a famous dude that was still kinda hot, in a hot freaking minute. Now, at my age it seems gross, but...
ReplyDeleteShe'll be 18 in less than a month. I agree big whoop.
ReplyDeleteOh never mind. Reread it and thought she said her bday was May. Still.
ReplyDeleteWhat a stupid dude.... lol lol lol. pay a 'ho next time idiot!!
ReplyDeleteCheck out the trailer for his movie Palo Alto. This is going to turn out to be part of the marketing campaign.
ReplyDeleteI think the story is how desperate he seems.
ReplyDelete@Erin B- that's what I got it of it too. Not so much the age factor, just the persistence on his end to get the chick by sending multiple selfies as proof.
DeleteWow, really? I mean, I guess. Shoulder shrug
ReplyDeleteThis might just be some sort of stunt by Franco to get some hetero PR.
ReplyDeleteI wouldnt 100% believe this.
ReplyDeleteWtf james???!! Duddeeeee wtf happened to your face?!
ReplyDeleteLol he looks homeless in that vBulletin pic. Dirty, unwashed nutsac stanky homeless.
Just woww
@Eros -did you say nutsack?
DeleteLol@ FSP I couldn't help myself! He looks like his balls smell in that pic...
DeleteNot even a sweaty funk but 'I'm homeless and I don give a flip type of funk.
Damn I like franco too. Cant believe hes goin out like this: perving on minors and looking homeless... smh lol
I can't stand him, he gives off the worst vibe…creepy
ReplyDeleteA bit off-topic, but I love how, when he asks, "What's your #?", the girl replies "...what do you mean #?"
ReplyDeleteSHE DOESN'T KNOW that we old-timeys used # for "number". Oh... sigh.
@snapdragon, what's your hash tag, babe? Ha!
DeleteWasn't it Franco who was doing that weird thing recently where he was giving his stuff away and crying? If it was him, I say this is all BS. Just another stunt of his trying to get publicity.
ReplyDeletePR stunt. This is his shtick. All his "jokes" are designed to show how smart and superior he is. Or how stupid the rest of the world is. That said, I'm still dying to see "Child of God."
ReplyDeleteI can see this being some douchey artsy shit from him, good point. Yuk. I'd rather think he was just a typical older dude trolling for young tail. That's at least not unusual.
ReplyDeleteI know JF is full of himself and a bit ridiculous, but I don't like entrapment, especially for the purpose of famewhoring. Tired of people becoming famous for having sex with famous people or "outing" what should be personal texts and phone conversations. Gross. Okay, I've said my piece for today.
ReplyDeleteI'm inclined to agree!
DeleteOOOOOKAAAAY…that ruins him for me! Thanks, Ent.
ReplyDeletePS: If I was 17 again, I'd be getting together with him, too.
He just decided that she was hot, and it was legal, so he'd try to sleep with her.
ReplyDeleteOMG a single male tries to have legal consentual sex with hot young female! Color me shocked!
Because of course Franco has slept with all available and willing to consent females from 21 - 35.
ReplyDeleteNooo…it's the desperate bombarding her with messages and the creepy photo that are so gross.
ReplyDeleteIf she wasn't being responsive I'd agree but I don't think so in this case. He clearly tries to end the convo and she keeps on replying. Seems normal stuff really
DeleteIt may be legal but what tells me the parents won't have the same enlightened attitude. And yes, teenage girls lie about their age. And the fake ID is really good quality these days.
ReplyDeleteHe tried to sleep with her, she didn't want to but instead of saying "no" and not replying to his text, she teased him and thought she would make a few bucks of it. She then sold the story to the english tabloids.
ReplyDeleteEnd of the story.
I do think he doesn't come out that bad as he asks for her age, doesn't insist too much, gives her the finger and moves on. Yet he should go after older women, then again what's his mental age?...
Just because it's legal doesn't mean it's in the best interests of the girl. The girl is talking about her exams for feck sakes. She's obviously an innocent. He's a known douchewagon with god knows how many STDs. He doesn't care about one whit about that girl. All he cared about was how old she was.
ReplyDeletea man trying to hook up with a younger girl? shocking. there are many couples who have an age difference, men liking younger women isnt a new or shocking thing, especially celebrities. its not like she was TOO young, like he was hitting on a baby or something.
ReplyDeleteshe was smart enough (or dumb enough depending how you look at it) to say no, but all in all ive seen way worse.
ReplyDeleteI think he's trying really hard to throw off the gay rumors by looking like a horn dog!
ReplyDeleteOnce a tool, always a tool. Also the answer to the BI about the "visiting college professor" (or whatever he was called) creeping on the coeds.
ReplyDeleteShe's hot! Young women have sexy tight bodies, without the jiggling cellulite, stretch marks, c-section scars, wrinkles, and relationship baggage. When a woman is young they are all about having fun and are not so jaded, bitchy and weighed down by the world. A young woman makes an older man feel young again. Why wouldn't a single, heterosexual man of any age want to do her? All this talk about being creepy or whatever is nonsense. She's legal in NY and a lot of other states, absolutely nothing wrong with his actions.
ReplyDeleteUmmm this is a publicity stunt. He happens to have a short film coming out about a HS coach who has inappropriate feelings for/makes advances at an underage girl. I call a Kimmel on this, especially with the timing that the trailer came out within the last few days.
ReplyDelete@Peter Head
ReplyDeleteExactly! Same with younger men. They have tight muscles, no spare tire, no stretch marks!! Young girls don't want to have their first time with someone that looks like their dad or worse, grandpa!
@Leek
ReplyDeleteLooks like he had a black-face spray tan in that last pic. I also call BS on this, it's a stunt, she was legal....nothing to see here...
ReplyDeletein first,you can have sex with a 17 years old teen in NY :it's legal
ReplyDeletein second, could it be a RP stunt for his next role? a trailer with him about a teacher having sex with a teen is released just after the "scandal"
Plus, he looks 47.
ReplyDeleteI mean, I dunno. I was barely 20 when I was dating a 44 year old and I felt it was normal.
NBD, and yeah, I think this is a PR stunt.
ReplyDelete@sprink: HA! I saw something go by the other day where someone was amazed at old phones having a hashtag button, BEFORE THERE WAS EVEN TWITTER, OMGZ! (Ahahaha, here it is!)
ReplyDeleteOh, lordy.
