James Franco Gay? Comedy Central Roast Participants Seem To Think So

By Alex Galbraith, Mstars Reporter | Sep 03, 2013 01:36 PM EDT

Actor James Franco has been followed around for most of his adult life with rumors of being gay, something Comedy Central Roast-ers were well aware of during their lambasting of the Oz: The Great And Powerful actor.Gawker has a collection of all the jokes regarding Franco's sexuality.

While some of the jokes were strong (Sarah Silverman's joke about Franco's squint was pretty great) nothing in this video seems to be as funny as a single line from Franco's Between Two Ferns segment where Zach Galifinakis asked Franco "Of all the projects you've done, which made people roll their eyes the hardest?"

Franco has spoken on his sexuality before. Via an interview with Attitude Magazine:

"One of the things that's very much part of my public image is the question of my sexuality. It's not something that bothers me in the slightest. It hasn't gone away and I get asked about it from all sides. It's partly my doing and partly not my doing.I think that the people I have known who are performers who haven't publicly come out didn't because they're afraid it'll hurt their careers. And they're afraid they won't be able to play straight roles anymore. If there's somebody that was well respected and very secure with their career, I could see it happening in a very positive way." 

What do you think of all the gay jokes hurled at Franco during his Comedy Central Roast? How do you think the roast went over as a whole?
