James Franco Turned Down Sex With Lohan

Whenever a celebrity goes on the Howard Stern show, they always seem to find themselves sharing intimate details of their past. The 34-year-old actor made a guest appearance on Howard Stern’s radio show the other day and admitted that he turned down a night of passionate sex with the troubled star, Lindsay Lohan. Why would Franco do such a thing? Well, he didn’t want to take advantage of the poor girl!

Howard asked him about the incident.  Stern asked Franco.

“You turned down sex with Lindsay Lohan, didn’t you? Back then when she was a lot hotter?” 

Franco told Stern,

“Oh, gosh. Poor Lindsay. I haven’t talked to her in awhile…We were friends. My house in L.A. was being redone, so I did this thing where I just stayed at the (Chateau Marmont) hotel, and she had been living there for a couple of years. I mean I don’t want to brag about it. I don’t know how that got out. She was having issues even then, so you feel weird.” 

Franco and Lohan do have history on the screen together, albeit briefly in the 2006 movie ‘The Holiday.’ And if it was up to Lohan, she would have starred alongside him in the new movie, ‘Oz: The Great and Powerful’ but, thankfully, Michelle Williams ended up landing the role of Glinda in the movie.

Lohan told the New York Post way back in 2011,

“I think the only role I could play is Glinda. I’ll only do the movie if I can work with James. We’re like best friends. We’re hanging out later.”

Howard Stern pressed Franco a little more on the subject but Franco ended the discussion by saying,

“Honestly, she was a friend. I’ve met a lot of people that are troubled and sometimes you don’t want to do that.”

Geez, what a nice guy! Not many guys would turn down sex with any woman, let alone a star like Lindsay Lohan. Sure, she might not be the hottest thing around, but it’s still Lindsay Lohan! And this was back in 2011? She was still pretty hot back then and she wasn’t completely crazy. She still had some respect in Hollywood, so it’s not like he would have been shamed for doing the deed with her. It’s too late now, though. We’re pretty sure everyone is trying to keep their distance from Lohan. Being spotted with her would probably not be the best move for your career.
