James Franco Gay Jokes During Comedy Central's Roast Discussed On 'The Rubin Report'

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" took Comedy Central to task over the barrage of gay jokes directed at James Franco during its roast of the Academy Award-nominated actor earlier this month. (WARNING: contains graphic language)

Joining Rubin were comedian Erin Foley and producer Jayar Jackson, both of whom were critical of the event.

"This was just was another example of what happens in comedy clubs across the country -- it's just stupid straight dudes making stupid gay jokes," Foley said. "They don't know James Franco ... honestly, it's absolutely ridiculous."

Jackson minced even fewer words, noting, "Call it a written sh*t talk night rather than a roast."

For his part, Franco doesn't seem to mind the gay speculation. Last week, he told The Daily Beast: "I don’t even care if people think I’m gay, so it was like, 'Awesome!' I mean, I wish I was. … I wish I was gay."

Beyonce Sings at After Party
Lebron James tied the knot in California last night -- and instead of some crappy band "We Are Family" -- playing at the reception ... they got JAY-Z and BEYONCE!!!!

The Miami Heat forward and his fiancee Savannah Brinson made things official during a ceremony in San Diego at the Grand Del Mar Hotel ... after dating 12 years.

According to reports -- the 28-year-old basketball player was joined by teammate Dwyane Wade and his girlfriend Gabrielle Union ... as well as Jay Z and Beyonce who performed "Crazy in Love" at the reception.


... and you thought the picture booth at your wedding was cool.

Nice choice! Someone that knew you before you hit it big will undoubtedly be a better match. Best to both of you. Way to see past the strippers, groupies and actresses that just see the income and want a piece.

I wonder if he's like all the other professional athletes who are also professional cheaters as well.. I'd get tested for STDs 4 times a year if I was dumb enough to marry a pro-athlete.

I don't care if shes his elementary school sweetheart. Lebron better have an iron clad prenup or he might be in a situation like Kobe Bryant wanting to be single but having to stay because he knows Vanessa will clean him out in a divorce.
