Actor James Franco has finally come out of the closet... well, sort of. In a recent interview with New York magazine, he opened up about his often-questioned sexuality.
The Pineapple Express actor stated, “Yeah, I’m a little gay, and there’s a gay James.” However, he then clarified that he doesn't sleep with men.
“If your definition of gay and straight is who I sleep with, then I guess you could say I’m a gay c--k tease,” he said. “It’s where my allegiance lies, where my sensibilities lie, how I define myself.”
The 38-year-old's sexuality was brought into question after he took on several projects where he portrayed gay men including in the films Milk, I Am Michael and Interior Leather Bar. It doesn't stop with his movies, though. In the upcoming film King Cobra, Franco plays a gay porn star and participates in a very visual sex scene with Pretty Little Liars actor Keegan Allen.
Last year, he even wrote an article for FourTwoNine magazine in which he interviewed himself; it was an interview between "Straight James Franco" and "Gay James Franco." Additionally, he has a book titled Straight James/Gay James.
