"Unfortunately in my position, I mean...I have a very good life, but not only do I have to go through the embarrassing kind of rituals of kind of meeting someone, sometimes if I do that then it gets, you know, published for the world so now, you know, it's like doubly embarrassing," Franco said. "But, anyway..."
Kelly Ripa praised Franco for telling his truth on the morning talk show. "I think the way you came out here and handled it is perfectly acceptable. It happens to everybody," she said. "And I think it happens to movie stars on a much grander scale, like you just said, because everybody knows who you are."
Ripa then joked, "I promise I will not reveal our text messages to the world!"
"I was sending some good ones backstage," Franco joked.
Co-host Michael Strahan commended Franco for being so candid, telling the Spring Breakers star, "I always think honesty and not avoiding anything is always the best policy and I appreciate that."
