James Franco is defending himself against allegations he allegedly tried to hook up a 17-year old girl.
It all started when 17-year-old Lucy met him outside of one of his stage productions in NYC. She filmed a video with him for Instagram in which you can see James asking her to tag him so that he can connect with her.
From there, they began to DM and text each other.
The conversations included a few photos, and ended with James trying to make plans to get a hotel room for the two.
Lucy then posted the screenshots to Imgur, but they’ve since been removed.
Franco responded to the scandal on Twitter, saying:
