Lip-Sync Singers: James Franco & Ashley Benson Channel Selena Gomez [VIDEO]
"Spring Breakers" stars, James Franco and Ashley Benson have done it once again. Franco, known for the penchant for lip-syncing, has recruited the help of Benson for another parody video. This time around, Bieber is no longer the butt of the joke but his ex-girlfriend, Selena Gomez. Check out the video and more here.
James Franco may be the most talented actor in the business but when it comes down to goofing around, Franco is the pro. The latest antic James has gotten himself into is a parody video of Selena's last hit single, "Love You Like a Love Song."
"Here's a song from one of my favorite young singers, my costar, young Selena Gomez," stated Franco all the while wearing a pink ski mask.
Joining Franco in the video is rumoured girlfriend, Ashley Benson. Like their parody video of Justin's single "Boyfriend", Benson and Franco double down the hype on acting crazy and young. Apart from the pink ski mask, Franco dons a blonde wig for the video and revives the baseball cap and hoodie he last wore for Bieber's parody video.
This doesn't count as the first time Franco had lip-synced to Selena's song. Back in 2012 during the shoot for Harmony Korine's film "Spring Breakers", James had posted a video of him singing Selena's hit song complete with his Kevin Federline look.
Like the saying goes, "Imitation is the simplest form of flattery", thus Selena should feel nothing but impressed that Franco would do such a hilarious stunt for her. Hopefully, Gomez doesn't get more creeped out by Franco unlike the first time she had met James on set of "Spring Breakers."
"We shot the movie for four weeks, then he came in and walked on set as his character and freaked me out," explained Gomez, adding "That's who I knew, until we started doing press and I realized he's one of the most intelligent people I've ever met."
"He's really nice, I promise. He's great," continued Selena.
