James Franco Opens Up About His Relationship With Seth Rogen | SiriusXM

[@alainsoir]

He seems genuine, he made a good point about not wanting his acquaintances to have to be burdened with answering questions about him

[@flyersluver4eva]

The sex was consented. He is just a normal guy who likes to ge pt laid and got laid. If he wasn’t famous the women wouldn’t be coming out from the shadows. Like some sorta Batman.

[@tylerheinrichs2806]

@@flyersluver4eva Is it impossible for you to imagine being in a situation where you feel pressured to do something you're uncomfortable with? Then after you do it and you feel gross, random people invalidate your feelings and tell you that you deserve what you got because you did the thing "willingly," while the person who harmed you is showered with accolades. James Franco used his position and influence to coerce women into sex with him. Whether or not he was consciously aware of the problematic power dynamics doesn't matter, the resulting harm is the same. Use your empathy dude, come on. What could these women possibly gain by lying?

If you listen really closely to what James says it’s very telling about what his real relationship with Seth Rogen was really like. He says that Seth was his closest “work friend,” not his closet personal or best friend which means they weren’t very close on a personal level. He also said that he and Seth never fought which further clarifies what Charlyne Yi said about Seth enabling James behavior. If Seth truly “despises abuse” then they would of had fights about it. You can tell that James practiced what he was going to say about Seth before this interview.

You can tell Seth hasn’t been the same since the woke mob came for both of them. He doesn’t even smile anymore, they literally sucked the light/life out of his eyes.

Whatever happened with James Franco and all those people that were involved that’s between them whether it’s true or not the only people that know or James those people of God at this point but the take away from this interview is that what he said about Seth Rogen is 100% true it sounds like he genuinely except the fact what’s sad because he knows the circumstances towards it I don’t ever see them working ever together again but who knows in this life you never know he just generally seems that he understands what happened and it looks like he’s accepted that

[@austinb3560]

I feel like Seth just ducked outta there so he wouldn’t get cancelled for supporting his friends. Still kinda dicks that he just abandoned his friend

[@jjjjjjjjj3406]

james doesn’t seem like a very nice person so i understand why 🤔

[@xavierwashington5408]

I sorta agree. Im not a fake friend, so if my friend, my brother, is in hot water, leaving them is a dick move, i will always support my friends. They could murder 3 ppl, I'd still be like, i dont condone what he did, but he was a cool guy before that. Sorta like the wrestlers close to Chris Benoit

[@giasamuel7822]

@@xavierwashington5408 so if your friend raped your mom or your sis you would just be like oh well, I don’t agree with what he did, but he was a cool dude before that. GTFOH

[@zodlord5669]

yeah I don't really love or like any of his works but the industry creates these types of environments I'm glad he's clearing some of it up with Seth Rogan, it's understandable where their positions are. Honestly I find James Franco's affairs not that bad. Abuse of power is rough.

[@1TheRingmaster7]

Seth rogens watching this high asf like: 🥺i love you bro

[@aware2722]

dude seth is off his rocker..when you see his twitter history and the way he carries on...idk man James may have made mistakes but that dude disappoints me. I grew up with his movies..sad

[@jackhickox]

what he did appeared to be a lil creepy but i can’t help it i still like him & feel like for the most part his heart is in the right place😂 edit: & f cancelling ppl unless it’s reallyy something unforgivable & undeniable‼️

[@cyro1079]

Are you saying what he did wasn't unforgivable and undeniable? You're treating as if what he did is some low-tier shit like got mad and yelled at an assistant or crew on set. You have a weird and bizzare view of what is considered serious crime or not. What he is being charged is high-tier sort of the "crossing personal boundaries" type of shit: Sexual Harrasment. And if your views is that those kind of things is not serious crime shit, then why the hell Weinstein & Cosby did faced their own crucifixion like HELL.

[@jackhickox]

@@cyro1079 it was wrong but i believe there are few sins so immoral that they’re literally unforgivable & i what he did isn’t at that caliber something like rape for sure would be or even closer to it-while his accusations are very serious, i still believe someone like him has the ability to grow past that, & if he proves he’s done his best to reallyy change himself on the inside, then i don’t think ppl forgiving him is such an awful idea…

[@jackhickox]

@@cyro1079 & i personally feel he’s shöwed A LOT of growth & remorse throughout this interview‼️

[@benmiller3252]

just because they are not planning on working together at the moment doesn't mean they'll stop being friends.

[@bukangorgom]

I know about him. His father was killed by Spiderman and Mary Jane was taken by Spiderman too

[@jengable4888]

Always interesting... On another note, he must have a twin, because I saw someone walking down the frozen food isle at Stop and Shop in Berlin, Connecticut years ago that looked just like him....

[@musicismysaviour22yearsago]

Are you sure it wasn’t him ? He has a house out in Connecticut

[@VenustasValidas]

❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏 bless us all who struggle to sit still within ourselves🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️ Believe!!

[@mullaoslo]

It's a weird thing with franco, because outside the real propper accusations he had.. It's not like he was this guy who acted one way in life and different way on set.. For as long as I can remember the crew has made jokes about how he was, this is the end even parodies it a bit.. Im not excusing his behavior and obviously he's gone to far in certain moments of his life but Idk the fact that hes always been kind of.. Open about it makes it seem more legit when he regrets the times it's gone to far.. I've always loved him and Seth as actors both individualy but especially together so I do hope they can find a way to get back there in time

[@redber16]

Sounds like an honest answer to me. Sounds like he forgave himself.

[@sauzarouge7450]

Nice vid

[@robertthompson6302]

The sad truth is, many people in Hollywood and regular life, could get away with taking advantage of people ( schools, bosses, films etc) and not be called out about it because their victims didn’t have a voice. Modern tech has given everyone a voice… This type of power play has been going on forever. People are now getting busted publicly about it. You think James Franco is the first guy to get laid because he’s famous? He’s just one that we know about. It’s a human nature dynamic that a lot of good people have been tested by and failed. Not uncommon for this type of sexual situation to happen in these circumstances. It’s sad but true. Franco went a bit crazy and misused his power to get dates with women. He needed to change. Looks like he’s dealing with it. Maybe folks can learn a good lesson from this. I hope the women he used can have good closure and move on to positive lives.

[@TheMastersuperblaste]

Oh please. Simp a little more why don't you? "The women he used" ? Maybe these superficial clout chasing LA/big city women need to stop going after these high profile men, then getting upset when he's not interested in seriously dating/marrying them?

[@majesticpublicenemy3201]

And we know what tired labels these manbaby chudss use on any decent folk who isn’t a regressive, but thankfully these kind of “woke hypocrites” who live rent free in the heads of said reactionaries have always resisted against these “alpha” douches. But yes, now everyone has a bigger voice thanks to social media, so whatever “back in my day” bs these red pill chudds keep spewing, just remember these projecting propagandists never represented the voice of the majority.

[@LevelUpWithAsher]

James Franco and Seth Rogen make a good duo

[@kylelyon8518]

I know people have been hating on him but everything did was consensual from what I’ve heard i think that yi girl just blew it out of proportion trying to get in the spotlight like she unnecessarily involved Seth rogen as well

[@JayTaylor3dollarfilms]

Not a famous guy. But we had a system back in the day. Girls came to our Thursday party and would hook up with one of the group to get VIP access to the big weekend party. They would come to the party and hook up with a guy higher on the food chain. We would go into the "regular" area and get girls numbers invite them to the Thursday party and they would hook up to get the weekend VIP access then bail and upgrade to a guy higher on the food chain. That was the game. NOW women wanna play the game then call foul cause they didn't get what they think they deserved or the relationship they wanted. It's BS. They've weponized hooking up. These women dont go after the sexy bussboys. They go after the club owners. When they don't get the bag they cry foul. It's foul. They're foul and men need to stop playing that game. Or get everything in writing before hand

[@pimpnorris2097]

He’s telling the gospel truth

[@TheMastersuperblaste]

That's why I'm glad I like dudes.

[@ajdoyle9559]

@Speak Eazy: 100%. Franco banged groupies like every other male rockstar/actor/comedian in America. I've got to question some of these accounts that have male names calling him a predator, they sound exactly like women. This dude banged at least 200 women and if three or four of them had a problem with him, that's not a particularly big deal once you get into those kind of numbers. Especially since we know he did nothing illegal and the one thing people keep saying is "power dynamics". When you're a millionaire most women you date will be much poorer than you. So now there's a "financial power dynamic" with every woman that you meet.

[@ajdoyle9559]

Look at what's happening with Israel Adesanya, he dated a girl for three years and she wants half his assets because of some common law they have in New Zealand, it's literally insane. Women want there to be a constant penalty for being a hardworking extremely successful male and men are just going along with it.

[@justrandom4304]

I'm a women and I've seen this play out first hand. I hate when women do that it takes away attention from the real victims and waters the topic like what Amber Teard did to Depp.

[@princessapollo1081]

The people that his hurt will never get that time back the fact that people are defending him in this comment section is gross. If The things he’s done to other people we’re done to you you would feel furious he has any platform like this the speak.

[@08ccalvin79]

Seth should've stuck by his friend.

[@victorpoblano6701]

At least he was speaking from his feeling s it was honest

[@maxeisenhardt633]

did any abody notice that Seth Rogen's Pam & Tommy, Tommy Lee's potrayal is like Wild carbon's copy of James Franco. When i first saw it, I guess the creator or writer have James Franco in mind.

[@ButterflyAmbienceVideos]

I know another Scorpio rising and he had similar sexually penetrating energy like James Franco that makes everyone uncomfortable. It’s literally like they think everyone is as sexual as them. He even had a gf while staring at me everyday and probably would’ve asked me out if I looked at him but I never ever did. But as Scorpio rising like Justin Bieber james will learn and become a better person. He will. I’m a Scorpio rising female we have issues with sex being imposed onto us in bizarre ways. You gotta realize the power sexual energy has otherwise you’ll just abuse it

[@samfilmkid]

This is about the only thing I respect him for. He alone should answer for what he did to those girls. I’m sick of seeing this guy getting defended but I am glad to see him defend his friends.

[@ErgoDog]

You so great

[@majesticpublicenemy3201]

All the “edgy” red pillers who LIVE to be aholes reject your woke nonsense! Yeah, and if only that was sarcasm. You show compassion towards others and call out behavior that IS unacceptable? You’re the enemy to these projecting sanctimonious (proudly deplorable) cons

[@samfilmkid]

@Kurby Opened an "acting school" that was basically designed for he and his cronies to coax young actresses into doing sex scenes.

[@samfilmkid]

@Kurby Coaxed. Manipulated. Acting schools just don't do that shit.

[@siiiiiuu7]

Nah, he didn’t distance himself because he had to “answer “for you… he did so because you were being a predatory loser towards women who came to you, a powerful celebrity, in an educational environment. I’m all for second chances, but don’t try to slick talk your way around your mistakes.

[@marcandregopaul2029]

I wish he come back as harry in no way home

[@jonadam5505]

I had a friend like this guy, all the same issues. Had to cut him loose, sadly he was a good dude, but couldn't keep his demons in check and was absolutely toxic to be around. Only time will tell with James Franco, with these type of open apologies, a true narcissist could fake even this level of remorse with great ease. They are masters at surface level.

[@HoldenNY22]

Did your freind have a Substance abuse problem or some other emotional issues? Did you try to help your friend with it?

[@jonadam5505]

Yes. Yes. and Yes. None of it worked and I was abused physically, mentally by this guy that I once called my friend. Life is short, don't waste your time with negative people, I get the whole "putting it back on me" question you have, but you are foolish if you think it's always up to the friend to help even if they are the victim. Sometimes you need to just cut the tumor out and not try and put cream on it and "help" it get better. @@HoldenNY22
