Not to be outdone by his brother Dave’s blossoming romance with Zac Efron, James Franco climbed to the rooftop of his assumedly swanky NYC apartment building to profess his love for his live-in boyfriend, actor Scott Haze.
Well maybe not climb per se, and perhaps profess is a strong word. But read between the lines here, people. And if that doesn’t work, make shit up. It works for James.
A New York Times style piece on the renaissance man we love to hate to love details the intimate moments of one post-performance night shared with “more than just a friend” Scott Haze.
Actually, the exact quote is, “They are now so close that describing them merely as friends would be a disservice.” Don’t you dare cheapen what they have.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
The two share a late night meal, talk gay cinema, then have that awkward moment when two town cars arrive but only one is needed — the celebrity equivalent of “no, we’d like one queen, not two twins.”
An assistant pointed him and Mr. Haze to two waiting town cars. Mr. Franco expressed surprise, since they needed only one.
“We live in the same place,” he said.
Sounds like a pretty typical marriage to us, and we couldn’t be happier for them. Mazel tov!
In other news, somewhere in Manhattan James Franco is giggling to himself for adding more spices to his gay rumor media stew. Careful James — don’t let it boil over, now.

Too much already. I think he’s gay and this is his boyfriend and good luck to them both. Some actors want to remain in the closet, if James Franco wanted to he would stop with the gay themed movies and just be low key, but every time you turn around with him it’s gay this and gay that 24/7. The female fans don’t have a clue. Ladies, in your opinion Liberace was straight, too.

Boy. You guys are really pushing the Franco thing. And I see James just eating this up. Unroll proven otherwise James is straight to me. So let’s leave the man alone.

@gabbym:
I agree. It is getting to be a bit much, but he likes dick AND he loves the attention that people give him for being, “mysterious and edgy.”
That’s the only reason he’s in the glass closet…that and I think his reps are already nervous and they won’t drop him so it’s either let him at least have his fun, since they benefit as well or he comes out and nothing happens and all the publicity he gets will be cut in half…unless he starts dating someone famous.
@ric:
I’m still reeling that people still think he’s straight. Takes me back to old Ricky Martin days of yore.

If this is true, which I doubts some parts a wrong.
The police can’t cremate the body that’s the funeral director and he has to have a Permit signed by a judge.
The police must have a next of ki , if not then the next of kin need to be informed.
They don’t automatically cremate be ause of HIV status.

Franco is so yesterday! Can’t we just move on from this poser.
Billy Budd
I said he was gay REPEATEDLY here at the blog and nobody believed me. I have first degree evidence of this. You guys must be insane.

No one is cuter than Dave Franco.

It’s hilarious that you guys give a crap. You all complain so much but here you go clicking onto the story. It’s f@#(ing hilarious.

As a gay man, I would NOT want James Franco to be gay. I simply want him to be the unattainable straight guy.
I LOVE the unattainable. If he cones out as gay, he’ll be just another cab off the rank.
DuMaurier
Well, I hope he’s gay, because otherwise this is getting tedious. Straight people affecting sexual ambiguity to show LGBT solidarity is so yesteryear. George Clooney, it is not homophobic to simply say “Actually, I’m straight” when asked (if you are) Hetero celebs do not have to kiss someone of the same sex (for the cameras) to show they believe in equality. And Big Male Star, you don’t have to give teasing Advocate interviews suggesting you might be open to doing it with a guy someday to prove you’re really, really our friend.
Okay, I admit it; at one time I thought this kind of stuff was sweet (and intriguing). But now it’s just cutesy and gagging (and not in the good way)

I realize by saying it on this blog I’ll catch hell – but maybe James Franco is bi and just jerking everyone around.
Ridpathos
I don’t know if James is gay, but I hope his friend is. *grrrowl*

I think James Franco and his brother Dave need to cut to the chase and shoot a tape of them having sex which is then “released” by persons unknown. That’s when I’ll believe all the gay rumors. I have had sex with brothers before, one gay and the other allegedly straight.
Billy Budd
@Curtispsf: I did masturbate together with my twin brother and a couple of male friends when we were kids. My brother is straight. But to engage in sex with a brother as an adult is DISEASE. If you get a kick out of this, then you are slightly perverted and extremely naughty.
Please check B*e*l*a*m*i and William H*i*g*g*i*n*s if you wanna watch gay porn with twins.

@JohnMc888: Yes it is ….. JAMES….
Gothrykke
He’s gay, but if he comes out, his career is pretty much up in smoke. He’ll still get the odd project, or indie flic, but that’s it. The allure now is the ambiguity. He’s waited too long to announce one way or the other, spurned too many bridges. People tolerate an ambiguous pretty boy as eccentric. People still aren’t tolerant of a fag that ‘flaunts’ his sexuality or a straight guy that spends all his time with The Gays.
Pistolo
He’s an a-hole, using us just to promote himself, I’m so tired of it. Actors who are really gay should be doing this, not bored and pretentious straight guys who want attention. Franco, shut the hell up and churn out something worthwhile in the way of movies. Stop trolling gay people, you’re annoying.

Gay or straight, James Franco is one of the skeeziest, most unattractive, ego-tripping, entitled effing bastards in the business. He makes so much money yet he can’t even keep his filthy yellow teeth clean. He looks like he squats in crack houses with the needle whores. In fact, he looks like a needle whore. Gay? Chile, y’all can have this bitch cause most of us in our right minds don’t want him.
Franco C.
I used to like James Franco, but I think he needs to go away for a little bit. He loves to play up for the gays, which is either endearing, or insulting — depends on who you speak to.

@Billy Budd: Nothing wrong with CONSENSUAL brotherly love. In fact, you can argue that it’s less perverted as adults than as kids since adults can legally give consent. Kids often have sex because of peer pressure or hazing, but when an adult male has sex, it’s generally consensual and mutually pleasurable. So give the brotherly thing a chance at your next family gathering. 🙂

@Billy Budd: I was an archivist for a porn project in college so I’ve seen quite a bit of twin porn, both gay and straight. FYI, neither BelAmi nor Higgins stuff hold a candle to the O’Brien Twins of the mid-1970’s. They barely looked 18 and did everything from VERY passionate tongue kissing to deep anal penetration to swallowing semen. It was the pre-AIDS 70’s, after all.
IMHO, best looking male porn twins are Sean Cody’s Jeff and John (masturbation, no touching) and The Scorpio Twins (limited touching).
Not that I know anything about gay porn, mind you. It was all for academia. 🙂

@Bryguyf69: Yeah, I agree Jeff and John are extremely cute, but they do not engage in real sex. They just masturbate being close to each other, which is exactly what myself and my brother did as kids. That does not count as real perversion.

why oh,why? all the fuss about his sexuality? If he is playing the ‘coy’ thing and letting his so-called public speculate as to whether or not he is in our ‘camp’ let him have his fun. I for one, don’t give an ass if he ‘is’ or ‘isn’t’there are so many others who are fearsly holding on to their closet door that interest me more! For instance, in the sports arena: WOW! if some of those ‘closet’ doors swing open James and company, will pale by insignificance to the icons who are suspected to be gay!(But, lets be honest, most will not be out until they retire or outed by their spouses or SO’s).
