I won’t fight it Salon.  Salon’s list is more fun and far cheekier than People’s, even if some of the choices are just as bad (Levi Johnston?).

Turns out, James Franco is far more interesting than we ever expected. He’s a painter and an aspiring writer who also happens to be a stoner icon. He’s starring as Allen Ginsberg in the “Howl” biopic. He bought the rights to Hart Crane’s “The Broken Tower.” (Hart Crane!) But he’s also a straight-up goof, set to guest star later this season on “30 Rock.” His lengthy story arc on “General Hospital” (premiering Nov. 20) is the WTF celebrity side project of the year.

This kid isn’t the next James Dean. He’s not the next Johnny Depp. Nor is he the next Heath Ledger.

He’s the next James Franco. And he’s Salon’s sexiest man living.

i could get behind this.
