Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West reportedly has more of a light-hearted side than people think as actor James Franco recently revealed the rap star's reaction to his now-infamous "Bound 2" music video parody.
According to Franco, Mr. West has even suggested a potential new KimYe spoof.
James Franco and Seth Rogen were pretty sure Kanye West was going to come down hard on them after they did a scene-for-scene spoof of Yeezy’s “Bound 2? video featuring Kim Kardashian. Instead the opposite happened! Franco revealed on Friday’s Live With Kelly & Michael that after their parody video dropped, the 36-year-old rapper set up a phone call with himself and pal Rogen, who asked, “So are you going to yell at us now?” The three went on to have a “surreal conversation” and that Kanye “was the sweetest guy. He actually had a proposal for the next chapter.” “It involves Paris and his wedding. But I don’t think it’ll ever happen.” (RumorFix)
Promising his recent “Bound 3” and Vogue cover shot spoofs were in good fun, Franco’s pal Seth Rogen admitted he is an avid Yeezy fan last month.
“I’m like just really into his music, and when we made the original (spoof of West’s “Bound 2” music video featuring Kardashian), we were filming ‘The Interview’ in Vancouver and we kept trying to go to Kanye West shows that kept getting cancelled or the dates kept changing and it happened like two or three times. We were just talking about him all the time and then the video came out so we were just like, ‘Let’s just try to do that.”‘ (Calgary Herald)
Rogen also revealed there are plans to target KimYe’s daughter in the near future.
Attention Hollywood casting agents: Seth Rogen is looking for someone to play the part of baby North in the next Kim Kardashian-Kanye West spoof with pal James Franco. The 31-year-old actor made the press rounds Thursday at CinemaCon in Las Vegas to promote his upcoming movie, “The Interview” (co-starring Franco). “Michael Cera would be good,” joked Rogen. “Get Annie Leibovitz to take the pictures.” (Calgary Herald)
Seth Rogen and Franco reunited to spice up KimYe’s new Vogue cover last weekend.
James Franco and Seth Rogen have improved the Vogue cover with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West … although they missed one slight detail. Rogen tweeted the cover — we’re guessing it’s photoshopped — with Seth playing b*tch. We might add, not an unattractive bride. They almost had us fooled … but then we looked at in the vicinity of the ring and, well, you don’t get that from a Hawaiian vacation. (TMZ)
