Thursday's telenovela marathon - HALL OF FAMER

2012-07-26T12:04:00.000-04:00

After recently wrapping up his stint on the popular American soap opera General Hospital, Franco has shifted his attention towards his less publicized stint on Spanish language telenovela El Cuerpo Del Deseo (The Body of Desire.) Filmed in Florida, El Cuerpo Del Deseo is about a man who comes back from the dead and discovers dark secrets about his beautiful widow. Franco appears as the scrupulous Francesco, a mysterious stranger with mystical powers and an ambiguous agenda. All of Franco’s scenes were filmed today in a day-long marathon shoot in order to accommodate his busy schedule.

QUITSTARTER

2012-07-25T10:40:00.000-04:00

Today James Franco invented Quitstarter. A website peddled as crowd sourcing meets the every man's dream of quitting on a whim, Quitstarter is really just a way for Franco to compile a list of people that need shaming. Franco has never quit anything, ever...Don't be fooled by pen names....

Tuesday's turn with ballet - HALL OF FAMER

2012-07-24T16:42:00.000-04:00

Having decided that a lot of his work lately was too cerebral, James Franco decided he needed to test the abilities of his body by channeling Rudolf Nureyev. Members of the recent American Ballet Theater performance of Romeo and Juliet invited Franco to an 8-hour training session, which culminated in an evening ballet showing of Romeo and Juliet for an audience of three: Franco's girlfriend, his girlfriend's mother and choreographer/friend Debbie Allen.

Friday's fowl challenge - HALL OF FAMER

2012-07-23T15:54:00.000-04:00

In a hot-sauce smeared afternoon, Franco chewed through the competition in Lakewood New Jersey’s Wing Fling eating contest — downing a stomach-turning 48 buffalo wings in 5 minutes. After being crowned 2010 King of the Wing by local celeb judges, a bloated Franco admitted he’d spent months training in Japan, perfecting the signature water-dunking technique that secured his victory over last year’s champion Bob Vance of Bob Vance’s Fine Used Autos. He hopes to use his title as King of the Wing as a springboard to a starring role in a biopic about International Federation of Competitive Eaters’ star Takeru Kobayashi.

Channel Franco

2012-07-22T18:12:00.000-04:00

James Franco just finished listening to Frank Ocean's Channel Orange. While Franco is a fan of the album, he doesn't quite understand why all the fuss around Ocean's use of the pronoun HE in the song Bad Religion. Franco is not always one for subtleties...

Report under peer review

2012-07-16T13:52:00.000-04:00

James Franco is uploading his findings after spending the last 24-hours on a bath-salt binge as part of a scientific experiment. Luckily for us said binge did not result in any of the violent episodes commonly associated with the drug. Franco attributes the lack of violence to counter-balancing dose of elderflower (a mythical plant, harvested during a recent trip to the deep interior of the conifer forest in the Swiss Alps, that is said to facilitate deep internal discovery.)

UPDATE

2012-07-14T12:00:00.004-04:00

Yup...bath salts.

Finding himself

2012-07-14T11:52:00.004-04:00

After a prolonged absence James Franco had a heart to heart with good friend Seth Rogan. The good news is Jimmy has decided to get back to his true calling as a doer of things. His plans for today include, finishing a screenplay, contributing to Childish Gambino's next mixtape, baking a pie and analyzing the social-economic impact of bath salts. It is unclear whether this involves taking bath salts.

2011-04-04T09:27:00.000-04:00

Playing with fire

2011-04-01T09:09:00.000-04:00

Yesterday, James Franco went to Google himself when he saw that Google was honoring Robert Bunsen's 200th birthday. That got him thinking, so today Franco walked into a science lab and he and some old dude started messing around with Bunsen burners.

Master of Education

2011-03-30T09:30:00.000-04:00

You need a pill for that?

2011-03-24T09:51:00.002-04:00

James Franco saw Bradley Cooper's new movie Limitless today. He thought it was weird that Bradley's character needed a pill to unlock the full potential of his brain as Franco has the natural ability to use the full potential of his brain and figured everyone else did too. Franco was, however, impressed with Bradley Cooper's hair.
