James Franco by Terry Richardson (September 2010)
Jezebel.com: James Franco has been exploring sexuality for sometime — his art show included lots of male genitalia; in his student film he "dashes" through the Louvre wearing a penis on his nose. He did an interview with The Advocate, the world's leading gay news source. He's played gay men, and directed movies about gay men. He says he's not gay, but he certainly seems interested in sexual identity, gender and self-expression through performance art.
Whether being shot for Candy is part of this exploration and experimentation — or if he did it because he thought it would be cool — doesn't really matter: He's the perfect model forCandy — because he's famous and intriguing enough to draw attention to the really amazing magazine, and because he sums up this part the mission statement:
CANDY is a magazine for everybody. A space for individual freedom, and a publication that pushes people to take on the persona of what they always wanted to be.
