In celebration of its 15th issue, the VMAN chose the gorgeous James Franco to be on the cover of their Fall 2009 issue.
Of the spread, VMAN editor-in-chief, Stephen Gan, said:
“James Franco doesn’t simply appear on the cover of this issue. He also, through a self-portrait of sorts, brings to our readers and impressive 10-page work of art within the magazine’s pages.
It’s artistic, expressive, and worth seeing-both in print and as a moving image. I always like to think of VMAN as a fashion magazine for stylish and creative men who have an artistic side – James Franco is just that.”
Wearing Gucci on the cover, Franco definitely lives up to the high accolades. We’re not really sure what’s with the Mrs. Doubtfire face mask, but we kinda dig it.
Hawt!
VMAN is on newsstands now.
