James Franco reveals why he won't share his side of sexual misconduct story
On Late Night With Seth Meyers, James Franco once again spoke about the sexual misconduct allegations that have been leveled against him. A few women, including actress Ally Sheedy, made these claims on Twitter. Franco has denied any wrongdoing and explained why he hasn’t gone further to refute the claims against him.
Cute #TIMESUP pin James Franco. Remember the time you pushed my head down in a car towards your exposed penis & that other time you told my friend to come to your hotel when she was 17? After you had already been caught doing that to a different 17 year old?

“I have my own side of this story, but I believe in these people that have been underrepresented getting their stories out enough that I will hold back things that I could say, just because I believe in it that much,” Franco said. He added, “If I have to take a knock because I’m not going to try and actively refute things, then I will, because I believe in it that much.”
Franco directed Sheedy in an off-Broadway play and said they’d alway had a good relationship. When asked, he said he has not tried to reach out to her.
“I don’t know. It was so shocking; I guess I’m just letting it be,” Franco said
