James Franco…is pregnant? Strange, but, as you’ll see for yourself, apparently true. At least according to the dedicated guys at “FCU: Fact Checkers Unit.” The Web series, about two overzealous fact checkers doing their thang at SWAG magazine, recently launched its sixth episode, titled “James Franco is Preggers,” over at MTV.co.uk, the series’ new home.
In the episode, Dylan (Brian Sacca) and Russell (Peter Karinen) are tasked with confirming whether renaissance man Franco really has a baby bump, as seen in a subway snapshot, before SWAG can run it on the cover. As it turns out Franco has superhuman powers. (Explains a lot.) The discovery leads the fact checkers on a bizarre foot chase that ultimately ends with baby food called “Pi-nipple Express”. This will all make sense if you spend six minutes watching the highly amusing clip. Which you should. It’s Friday before a long weekend, what else could you possibly have to do?
Here’s the faux-magazine’s cover shot. See? Preggers.
Check out the previous “FCU” episodes here. They’re all equally as entertaining as this one is.
