In his new movie Milk, actor Sean Penn has a scene in which he smooches fellow actor James Franco. After filming this scene, Sean sent ex-wife Madonna a text message letting her know that he had “popped his cherry” kissing a man and that for some reason, it reminded him of her! Maybe because Madge wears the pants in the relationship? Yep, I thought so.
James Franco also had this to say on kissing Sean:
“The first kiss of the movie was out on Haight Street, with, like, 200 people watching, outside. I’m sure in the end it will be a really cool shot, but it starts close and then it takes maybe a minute. That’s a long time on film with everybody watching, and, like, a fake moustache getting in your mouth. It was long enough that you couldn’t help but thinking, ‘Oh, my God, I’m kissing Spicoli.’”
