Francophiles, Rejoice!

Tipster Jenny Lam has good news for fans of Freaks and Geeks and Spider-Man:

"Stalkers, plan accordingly: I was at the Whitney Museum administrative offices for an internship interview this afternoon. I'm signing in at the security desk, only to look up and see "JAMES FRANCO" written above my name. I turn around, and, sure enough, a scruffy-looking Harry Osbourne is being introduced to a Whitney employee by a British girl, and his hair is a nice shade of bottle blond (orange, rather). As I'm waiting for security to contact my interviewer, I hear JFranc say that he's enrolled at the Columbia MFA Writing Program for Fall 2008, and he'll be taking classes at Tisch as well."

Another tipster tells us that Teh Internets are already all atwitter at the news, at least over on oldschool Livejournal community/celebrity gossip blog Oh No They Didn't. Some highlights from the comment thread on their post (which, incidentally, appears also to have been written by Lam):

"lolz poor dood he's going to get stalked by creepy people omg
but omg jelisss celebrity sightings"

"I might be doing the summer drama program and Tisch. LOLOLOL I'm going to eat his face off."

I hope he's paying full funding and his spot didn't knock someone with no name out of it.

Otherwise, I don't care.

so that explains it! I actually saw him on Thursday by Dodge. At first I thought i saw someone who looked like him. and then I did a double take and realized that it was him! He has his hair dyed a mix of blonde and auburn. and yes he is sporting the scruffy look.

funny thing is, on Friday, i saw the guy who plays Detective Munch on Law and Order.

It's better than some of the boring-ass comments that do get up there.
