Starpulse.com put out it’s Hottest Hollywood Single List of 14 stars - Brody Jenner, Cody Linley, Chace Crawford, Corbin Bleu, Shia LaBeouf, Leighton Meester, Leighton Meester, Taylor Swift, Gerard Butler, Julianne Hough, Adrian Grenier, Anne Hathaway, James Franco, Michael Phelps.  You don’t have to be a number-crunching genius like Nate Silver to know that Gerard Buter is an outlier.  What the hell is he doing on a list with these young ones?  Sure he’s sexy and looks great in a loin cloth, but he’s a MAN and doesn’t belong on the list with 19 year-old twinkle toes, Corbin Bleu and Cody Lindley. I wonder if Gerard Butler would convert for me.  Who needs Judiasm when you’ve got Gerard Butler?

Glad to see Shia LaBeouf and James Franco are among THE CHOSEN, but what about Natalie Portman?  Oh and last I heard gorgeous James Franco was dating Ahna O’Reilly (who apparently turned him on to High School Musical and hottie Zac Efron).

What a face that James Franco has!  Shana Punim as my Bubbie would say (with all that yizkor I’m feeling sentimental).  Thanks to very important scientific research a new software program, the BEAUTIFICATION ENGINE, uses a mathematical formula to alter the original photo into a “theoretically more attractive version, while maintaining what programmers call an “unmistakable similarity” to the original.”  Well James Franco’s “perfect” face is exactly the same as his real face - wow - some guys get all the luck.  Wonder how the program works for photos taken down below?

Hopefully, this great scientific breakthrough will lead to better plastic surgery and put an end to such a ridiculous sites like Meg Ryan’s lips.

In the October issue of Interview, director Gus van Sant interviews James Franco. They talk about their new movie together, Harvey Milk with Sean Penn and their love of Zac Efron. Seems that Franco’s girlfriend, Ahna O’Reilly turned him on to High School Musical.

JF: Right. So then when I saw him at the MTV Movie Awards, I was like, “Hey man Good to meet you, Zac. I really like the movie, and I just workd with Gus, and he tried to get you in the movie.” And Zac was like, “Yeah, yeah. It just didn’t work out.” And I was like, “Well you should really do a movie with Gus. I think it would be a good contrast to your other stuff.” He’s like, “Yeah, maybe.” And then I was walking away to go back to my seat, and he tapped me on the shoulder and said, “We should do it together, man.” And he, like, gave me a high five. He was really the nicest guy.

GVS: Yeah. He is really nice. We should all do a Judd Apatow movie. You and Zac and me.

James Franco has enrolled in master’s writing program at Columbia, but are his intentions to master his craft or meet young co-eds?  According to Vesal Yazdi in theColumbia Spectator, the “Pineapple Express” star was studying the other night at the school’s Butler Cafe when he was surrounded by a crowd of young “squealing freshman girls.”  “[They] were shameless enough to literally go right up to him.”   Oh baby, they might have acted like a “pack of starving vultures,” but Franco probably loved it.  Let’s face it - you got to love those college freshman girls especially in early September before they’ve chunked up from the Freshman 15.  Watch out Joe Francis, looks like there’s some Girls Gone Wild competition coming from the UWS.

“Oh, my God, I’m kissing Spicoli,” James Franco said about his on screen kiss with Sean Penn in the upcoming Harvey Milk biopic, Milk (out in December). Penn plays Harvey Milk, a San Francisco city supervisor in the 70s and the country’s first openly gay elected official.

“It wasn’t twelve hours, but it certainly felt like it,” Franco tells September’s GQ of the lip-lock. “The first kiss of the movie was out on Haight Street, with, like, 200 people watching, outside.

“It was a crane shot — I’m sure in the end it will be a really cool shot, but it starts close and then it takes maybe a minute,” he says. “That’s a long time on film with everybody watching and, like, a fake mustache getting in your mouth.”

Seth Rogen and James Franco rocked it like Cheech and Chong at their stoner flick, Pineapple Express, premier in LA last night. Check out the trailer.
