Sean Penn texts Madonna about his first man kiss. But why?
Sean Penn plays San Francisco's first openly gay politician, Harvey Milk, in Gus Van Sant's new film, "Milk."
James Franco plays his longtime lover/partner Scott Smith.
Franco tells Out Magazine that the first person Sean Penn told about his first man kiss (with Franco) was not his wife, Robin Wright-Penn. Nor was it Petra Nemcova.
It was his ex-wife, Madonna.
"After the first kiss, it broke the ice. And then after our kiss Sean texted Madonna -- his ex-wife, Madonna -- and said, "I just broke my cherry kissing a guy. I thought of you. I don't know why." And then she wrote back and said, "Congratulations."
Weird. (Unless you're a star and have an indie profile movie to promote.)
Can you imagine getting a text message from your ex-husband telling you he just kissed guy and thought of you?
At one point during rehearsals, it was suggested that Franco and Sean Penn spend the night together in an apartment to "feel comfortable" with each other, Franco told Out.
To find out how that went, keep reading. You know you gotta.
Franco: "At one point during rehearsals, the idea was thrown out that Sean and I would go to the apartment that we eventually shot in and spend a night or two there just to, like -- I don't know what -- feel comfortable with each other? That idea was kind of thrown out but ended up not happening because of scheduling. I approached the relationship part as I would approach any relationship. When I'm working with another actor or actress that I'm supposed to have a relationship with, I'll look for things in the person I like. My other hero on the film was Sean, so it wasn't too hard to look up to him -- or whatever that is.
Out: You fell in love with Sean? Is that what you're saying?
Franco: Basically, I've been in love with him since even before "Fast Times." He did this little thing called "The Beaver Trilogy." ... So, basically I've been in love with Sean Penn since "The Beaver Trilogy."

sean is an amazing actor ever in the history makings a legend of his own. i love you mr.penn. god bless you and all of your loved ones. peace shalom!
What a wanker.
Sean texted Madonna because she has always said it shows a lot about a man when he's unwilling to a) dance or b) kiss another man. I'm assuming Sean had an issue doing the later while they were married...
$1000 DOLLARS To ANYONE THAT CAN TELL ME WHAT HOSPITAL AND DOCTOR DELIVERED OBAMA?
UNTIL YOU CAN PROVE THIS HIS PRESIDENCY IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL...
Hey x-anus - you need to get over it and deal with it... Obama has been rightfully elected by a majority of Americans, so stop wasting your time and your $$...
Hex x-anus - $1000 dollars to anyone who can tell me that (1) Al Gore lost in '04, and (2) How many lives - on both sides - and how much of our $$$ did GWB spend on a lie?
I hear ya, xinunus--more than a few of us have serious doubts about Obama's citizenship.
Even if his citizenship is proven to be legit, his behavior certainly proves he's no American.
Took them long enough, but those dems who still have neurons that fire are beginning to see their mistake--duh!!
Enough already with the GWB bashing 'truly'--
The liberal left literally lives on lies--Gore has made millions on his 'global warming' lie, and Obama, well, the only time he's not lying is when he's sleeping (and that goes for his lying, lip-flapping cabinet, too)
