The time he wrote a thinly disguised ‘short story’ about Lindsay Lohan tryingto sleep with him

There have been loads oftimes where Franco’s hinted that he’s seen LiLo starkers. He cast her scantily clad in an R.E.M. music videoand claims in This Is The Endthat he’s slept with her.

In a short story penned for VICE, Franco wrote about a troubled “Hollywood girl,” who tries to break into hisChateau Marmont hotel room. It's one of the most self-indulgent pieces of fiction EVER.

It’s supposed to be a made up story, but...

“I ran my fingers through her hair and thought about this girl sleeping on my chest, our fictional Hollywood girl, Lindsay. What will she do?”

Probably not made up.

The time he turned his whole life into performance art

According to Danny Boyle, who directed him in 127 Hours, Franco has turned his celebrity status into a platform for performance, projecting a version of himself onto different situations.

"While we were shooting the film, he would sometimes ask me, 'What do you want him to do?' I would say, 'What do you mean?' He would say, 'What do you want from him in this scene?' You mean your character? 'No, no. Franco. What do you want from Franco?' He was talking about himself in the third person."

The time he painted a deer orgy and exhibited it

You read that correctly.

James Franco is to arts what Kanye West is to fashion. The man can't stop working. His art exhibition, entitled Fat Squirrel, featured paintings of obese animals, self-portraits, and deershaving a threesome.
