James Franco

In a recent New York Times article, actor James Franco defends the Tranformer star for his strange antics as of late.

There was glitz, glamour, a wealth of cleavage, and a litany of awkward jokes read not-so-subtly from a teleprompter. It’s easy – and hilarious – to poke fun at Hollywood’s frequently botoxed royalty, but there’s no denying the rich crop of excellent films they made last year, and rightfully celebrated at last night’s Academy Awards. Here are our top six most memorable moments from the evening’s festivities, plus a couple of blunders.

Oprah’s questionable expert endorsements; James Franco finally discovers Twitter; Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi’s eccentricities; the loudest cat in the world; and why we should be worried about solar storms.

An apple that won't go brown; Torontonians are the saddest; how women can beat stereotyping; stripper shortage in Toronto; and Anne Hathaway and James Franco will host this year's Academy Awards.

We love James Franco in pretty much everything he's done. The question is, will we love him while he's sawing off his own gangrenous arm with a pen knife?
