James Franco loves fueling gossip media. He's now playing off rumors of his alleged relationship with Lana Del Rey with an "announcement" on Instagram that features a photo of him and the Ultraviolence singer with the caption, "Oh snap, we got married."
Adding, "JUST KIDDING!!!"
As E! points out, rumors of the two dating began circulating after the 29-year-old Del Rey split from boyfriend Barrie-James O'Neill in June. She attended a screening of Franco's new movie, Child of God, in New York City on July 30 and Franco has shared several photos of himself with the singer on Instagram.
On July 19, he posted a photo of Del Rey wrapping her arms around his neck during a stroll on the beach and caption it with one of her lyrics, "Down on the West Coast, they got a sayin..."
He also posted her recent Rolling Stone cover and in another caption he told followers he is "OBSESSED with the RIDE video!"
During his time starring on Broadways's Of Mice and Men, Franco shared a backstage photo with Del Rey with the caption, "LANA DEL REY and CHICKEN came to the show AND LOVED!" he wrote. "Of Mice and Men, baby!"
At the time, he called Del Rey "my new friend."
But Franco is happy to mess with the media's obsession with his alleged romances.
Yesterday, he called out Gawker's "homophoic scoop" about him living with friend and co-star Scott Haze. On Instagram he posted a screenshot of the Gawker article with the caption, "GAWKER - always getting the cutting edge, homophobic scoop!!! Go see CHILD OF GOD in theaters and see me direct my live-in boyfriend, SCOTT HAZE!!! Love you SCOTT!!!!"
