13 Times James Franco Made You Jealous of His A-List Friendships

Resident weirdo James Franco loves to go wild on Instagram, especially with his famous friends. His most recent installment features his freaky bald head and a bloody-nightgown robed Megan Fox, for some upcoming project that's TBD. It looks pretty campy, though, and all I can do is hope and pray it's not some sort of Carrie remake. But Fox isn't the only famous pal who's graced the strange wasteland of James Franco's Instagram account. He's a prolific poster (mostly selfies) but likes to remind us that he has A LOT of celebrity friends, colleagues and acquaintances. Of course, his best bud Seth Rogen is the number one featured, but there are plenty of other strange photos (Franco always mysteriously leaves out details of whatever situation or project the Instas might have been from). Here are some of the best.

Megan Fox

Bloodied as hell and still looking good. Franco’s bald head though… still disturbing.

Mindy Kaling (and Seth Rogen)

Franco, Kaling and Rogen under overwhelming purple neon. He could be reprising his role as the Other Dr. L on The Mindy Project, or they could just be hangin’ loose.

Nicki Minaj

QUEEN NICKI! What is Rogen always doing there, though.

Iggy Azalea

Who dat, who dat? Apparently this one was for an MTV VMA special.

Zachary Quinto

Who doesn’t love Quinto? Fools, that’s who. I’m betting James Franco is going to be on this season of American Horror Story. After all, he sure does love a freak show.

Lana del Rey

“Oh snap, we got married. JUST KIDDING!!!” Oh Jim, you almost had us there.

Idina Menzel

Or is it… Adel Dazeem?

Conan O'Brien

Look at all that great curly hair.

Jonah Hill

I have learned that James Franco calls Jonah Hill “J-Bug.” Delightful.

Jimmy Fallon

Two Jims for the price of one.

Lady Gaga

Gaga for Gaga. I wish Franco was wearing the same outfit.

Gram Gram

The most important celebrity of all: Franco’s grandmother. “CHILLIN with G’MA!” Chillin’ indeed.
