No matter how bizarre it may sound it is true, that Franco has repeatedly denied any s*xual encounter with the actress whatsoever, but Lohan’s detailed accounts of their encounters have sparked speculation.
The mystery surrounding their relationship, with its twists and turns, has captivated audiences throughout the years, making it even more intriguing. While the truth may never be fully known, the intrigue surrounding the events remains, here is what is known till now.
James Franco “Turned Down S*X” With Lindsay Lohan
James Franco on Howard Stren’s radio show as reported by E! News shared an interesting revelation about his encounter with 2000s icon Lindsay Lohan. Franco, while promoting his project Spring Breakers, disclosed that he turned down a tempting offer from Lohan when they first met.
He clarified that he declined a physical relationship with her because she was going through a difficult period in her life.
As Franco stated,
“Oh, gosh. Poor Lindsay. I haven’t talked to her in a while, 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. Honestly, she was a friend. I’ve met a lot of people that are troubled and sometimes you don’t want to do that.”
Despite Howard Stern’s probing questions, the celebrity stuck to his story, asserting that they did not have a sexual relationship. However, he did not deny the details of their initial encounter, which aligned with Lohan’s account. The actor explained that Lohan’s “issues” were the reason he declined her offer.
Lindsay Lohan Shared Her Side of the Story
Amidst persistent denials, James Franco developed a tale to satisfy the curiosity of those hungry for details about that fateful night. However, actress Lindsay Lohan, sensing the unfolding situation, wisely refrained from being entangled further in the web of drama. She revealed to Daily Mail,
“If someone wants to do that for their own reasons there’s nothing to say, I’m not in their head. [However] I would never do that. I didn’t read it, When I started working we didn’t have Twitter, we didn’t have any of this s–t, it’s a different world now. We didn’t have Instagram, we didn’t have camera phones for God’s sake. It’s really different now.”
She went on to pinpoint the source of the issue, the alleged leaked s-x list that revealed her past relationships and encounters, she said,
“That’s one of the hardest [things], that’s something that is uncomfortable to have to say to anyone, let alone for it to be posted everywhere, so it’s not a joke. It wasn’t funny, it was cruel. It’s bad karma for whoever [released] it. It was s–tty.”
Having left behind the chaos of those wild tales, she shared how her close-knit circle of friends played an important part in steering her life toward a better direction. She stated,
“I’m fine with having very few friends because I can trust them with my life and they are there for me if I need them. My friends don’t bring stuff up to be because they are with me and they know the truth and they know what’s happened, and why bring up something that might hurt your friend, so I don’t pay attention to it.”
Lindsay Lohan is currently in her happiest and healthiest state, enjoying marital bliss and recently welcoming a baby boy into her life.
