James Franco & Kalup Linzy at LA Gay Pride 2010

Walking around LA Gay Pride on 6/12/10, I was surprised to run into James Franco and renowned video artist Kalup Linzy. This video was made for the WOW Report:

Franco and Linzy were shooting documentary footage for a larger project that they're staying pretty secretive about, but it involves Franco's recurring role on "General Hospital," where Linzy will soon join him as a new performance artist character. Franco's "General Hospital" storyline will bring his fictitious soap alter ego "Franco" to MOCA at The Pacific Design Center, where the soap will shoot Franco and Linzy's scenes on-location later this month. In fact, for the next few weeks MOCA will be projecting an outdoor video installation of Franco backstage at "General Hospital" onto its walls, some of which can be seen at the end of this video. And because Linzy's video work is often described as parodying soap opera storylines, his addition to the "General Hospital" cast is yet another example of life imitating art imitating life, all of which seems to be part of Franco and Linzy's mysterious artistic master plan.

Michael Lucid is cameraman/editor of this video in the web series "Daily Freak Show," and he is co-creator of the online sketch comedy show "Pretty Thingsss," which you can see here:

[filthhhhhh]

@katarzyna1113 you hope to late, he sure had some gay jumping into him, who turn it gay.. For thos who say that gays are born and can not be made, that's not so true, cause it is very posible that a hetero after a sexual intercorse with another man gets to like it, blowjob (2000 better), body play which is absolutely intense ( women dont move)... and of course penetration, that turns gay to any guy... its all about pleasure of the sensesss

@JesseMcCartney69 Thank you !

[JesseMcCartney69]

@abeille344 It's fine. You are French, after all.

[abeille344]

@abeille344 Oups ! Smart to ME means... not BE...

[abeille344]

@JesseMcCartney69 Sorry ! My english is not excellent. Smart to be means sympathic, not brillant. I regret the confusion.

[JesseMcCartney69]

@abeille344 I have been saying the whole time he isn't ACTUALLY smart. This kinda proves how dumb you are. I was saying the whole time in my comments that I DON'T THINK FRANCO IS SMART! So what exactly are you debating? My point was Franco isn't very bright, that he only pretends to be, and now you suddenly agree? What are you? Bipolar?

[abeille344]

@JesseMcCartney69 You understand him, but you don't understand me. My point is that he paid lawyers recently about a rumour that he was involved in gay rape. That made him a reputation, but he's responsible of this shit, because he put himself in trouble. If you're a movie star like him and you're alone with a drag-queen at Gay Pride and people can see you on Youtube, you open the door to different kind of rumours.
