James Franco revealed a bit more about his sexual identity during an interview with New York magazine. 

The 37-year-old actor told New York magazine he doesn’t understand people’s obsession with his sexuality, but believes fame could be the reason.

“There is a bit of over focusing on my sexuality, both by the straight press and the gay press, and so the first question is why do they care? Well, because I’m a celebrity, so I guess they care who I’m having sex with,” Franco says.

“But if your definition of gay and straight is who I sleep with, then I guess you could say I’m a gay cock tease. It’s where my allegiance lies, where my sensibilities lie, how I define myself,” Franco continued.

“Yeah, I’m a little gay, and there’s a gay James,” Franco says.

The actor has previously discussed his obsession with gay culture in his film work during an interview with Rolling Stone.

“We’ve told the straight, heteronormative stories ad nauseam by now — in our movies, our shows, our commercials — everywhere,” Franco told Rolling Stone. “I think it’s healthy to make work that disrupts and questions that, and shows alternative narratives. That’s what an artist should do.”

Franco’s film “King Cobra,” which tells the story of gay porn star Sean Paul Lockhart’s fall out with his producer, opened at Tribeca Film Festival this weekend to positive reviews. “Pretty Little Liars” actor Keegan Allen also stars in the film.
