Recently, James Franco sat down with the Los Angeles Magazine to chat about his new book of poems, Directing Herbert White. The interview probably would have gone mostly unnoticed, except he dropped a bombshell in his interview!
When asked about his poems about his fellow celebrities, the interviewer pointed out that he had written a couple of poems about Lindsay Lohan. The interviewer asked if he had gotten any response from his subjects and he says, “No, I didn’t write anything bad about them. And Lindsay herself has told lies about me with her people-she’s-slept-with list! So I feel like what I said is much less than what she’s said.”
He is, of course, referring to the list of sexual conquests LiLo wrote out for her friends and then conveniently left behind for a tabloid to find! So far all the guys on the list have remained silent, but now James Franco is speaking out to deny his place on the list. James and Lindsay do have history together, though. Back in 2013, James denied to Howard Stern that he’s ever slept with LiLo, though she tried!
“Honestly, she’s a friend,” he told Stern, “I’ve met a lot of people that are troubled and sometimes you don’t want to do that.”
Ouch. Well, one thing I can say is, Lindsay must have made some kind of impact on James for him to write two poems about her. Maybe not a sexual one, but definitely an emotional one! I can’t wait to read the poem!
