James Franco & Seth Rogen Wisely Decline To Reenact Their “Bound 2” Spoof At Kanye & Kim’s Wedding
Last year, in making his video for “Bound 2,” Kanye West enacted a weird-as-fuck motorcycle-sex fantasy with Kim Kardashian, his fiancee. Hollywood stoner buds James Franco and Seth Rogen then recreated the video shot-for-shot, with Rogen playing Kardashian and Franco playing West, and called it “Bound 3.” This seemed like the sort of thing that might send Kanye into public-meltdown mode, but Kardashian went public, saying that both she and Kanye thought it was hilarious. And now, on a recent stop at The View, Fraco says that Kanye contacted both him and Rogen, hoping that they’d perform it the night before his wedding.
As Entertainment Weekly points out, Franco said, “And I’m pretty sure I can say it now because I’m pretty sure it’s not going to happen — he wanted us to perform it live the night before his wedding at Versailles.” (Note the “pretty sure” there. It’s not definite!) Franco and Rogen had sensible reasons for turning down the gig, claiming it “would have been awesome for about 20 seconds, but then there would be Seth with his shirt off in front all the Kardashians.”
This is the first we’ve heard about the KimYe wedding going down at Versailles, the legendarily lavish French palace. But when you think about it, where else could they possibly do it? This raises the question: Who else is going to perform at this thing? Make your wishes and predictions in the comments section.
