JAM FRAN’S QUEER CATALOGUE: 10 VERY GAY CAREER HIGHLIGHTS
"There is a b of overfocg on my sexualy, both by the straight prs and the gay prs ... why do they re?" * gay chicken james franco *
Jam Fran’s sexualy has been the subject of much speculatn, cludg by Jam Fran; the actor/artist/thor once nducted an terview between his straight and gay selv. In a New York Magaze terview published the April 18 issue, the actor once aga elaborated on the subject, scribg himself as “a ltle gay.
” Notg that Fran has said he’s “gay my art and straight my life, ” the terviewer asks Fran to expla whether he’s not also gay his life, potg out that some gay men have lled him “kd of a gay c—k tease. There is a b of overfocg on my sexualy, both by the straight prs and the gay prs, and so the first qutn is why do they re?
A QUEER TAKE ON JAM FRAN’S ‘STRAIGHT JAM / GAY JAM’
* gay chicken james franco *
But if your fn of gay and straight is who I sleep wh, then I gus you uld say I’m a gay c—k tease. Yeah, I’m a ltle gay, and there’s a gay Jam.
Fran’s short film adaptatn of Anthony Hecht’s poem is pretty damn gay. Gay Town.
Callg an exhibn “Gay Town” certaly creat a good headle, but we’re not entirely sure what else achiev. Long before Harry Potter was a gay poet (the sential tabloid take on Daniel Radcliffe’s turn as Gsberg), Fran offered his own take “Howl”, a much more tertg film on formal terms at least. The nce is clever, the executn is exquise; ’s funny whout beg knowg, tricks you but isn’t smug about , and bt of all ’s about hard-re gay sex and s perceptn both wh and whout the gay muny.
JAM FRAN FALLY SETS THE RERD STRAIGHT ON HIS SEXUALY! SO, IS HE GAY OR WHAT?!
Gone are the days when was nsired taboo for a straight heart throb to take on a gay role.
”), Meo’s homosexualy is explored through a chronicle of the fal day of his life (he was stabbed to ath at the age of 37). It was an early example of the meta-ns of Fran’s work, given he portrayed Meo’s “Rebel Whout a Cse” (more on the gay subtext of that film here) -star Jam Dean the 2001 TV bpic “Jam Dean” — which, given Dean himself is a nsirable gay in — probably warrants a spot on this list self.
” The film also was the begng of a fx gay seri of llaboratns between Fran and Rogen. For one, they hilarly spoofed Kim and Kayne late last year by makg a super gay shot-for-shot remake of their bizarro “Bound 2” vio for no apparent reason other than to enterta (and to lead to this).
JAM FRAN EXPLAS HIS ‘GAY OBSSN’
And recent years, two groups of people particular have bee creasgly fed-up wh (and creasgly hostile to) the celebry provotr: poets and gay men.
It should e as no surprise, then, that gay poets n get pecially riled about Fran’s play wh inty and “lerary manspreadg, ” to borrow a phrase om Purvi Shah’s piece for Vida on the Michael Derrick Hudson yellowface ntroversy. And yet Fran’s “queer public persona, ” as he scrib his latt poetry chapbook, Straight Jam / Gay Jam (Hansen Publishg Group), is meangfully distct om Hudson’s ce, as is om Rachel Dolezal’s, and om the cultural appropriatn of Katy Perry and Iggy Azaela—all of whom I’ve wnsed whe gay poets pare Fran to. Do the succs of this public persona, then, of which his intifitn as a poet is most certaly a part (see: his affy for gay poets Frank Bidart, Allen Gsberg and Hart Crane), pend on the tails of Fran’s private life?

From this poem on, which the speaker intifi himself as a “sister clown, / Wh a se pated / So thick / I looked mad-happy, always, ” Straight Jam / Gay Jam ncerns self primarily wh problems of persona. Fran don’t want to fuck Lana Del Rey so much as to be her—not unlike the relatnship to women he characteriz “Hello Woman, ” and not, as happens, unlike many gay men’s relatnship to Del Rey.
Intertgly, when Del Rey’s mic vio for “Summertime Sadns” told the story of a lbian affair spe the sger’s ostensible heterosexualy, no one acced her of gay-bag. In his tle poem, which tak the form of an terview between Straight Jam (SJ) and Gay Jam (GJ), and is one of the most engagg the llectn, Fran do fally rpond to the accatns he himself fac, settlg once and for all the qutn of whether he’s gay the most leral sense (not really).
