James Franco and Seth Rogen have spoofed Kanye West’s “Bound 2” music video.
The duo reportedly filmed the parody clip during taping for The Interview, a movie set to star both actors. Their parody clip was made to copy West’s video “shot for shot,” according to the video’s introduction.
The clip features Franco in the role of Kanye West and Rogen in the role of Kim Kardashian.
Kanye West recently spoke about his “Bound 2” music video and his music videos in general.
“I remember I did ‘Gold Digger,’ which is one of my favorite videos, when it first dropped, people had such a literal take on what it was,” West said in an interview with Philadelphia radio station Hot 107.9. “They were like, ‘I thought it was just gonna be girl’s shoppin’. It really wasn’t that…I hope you’re not disappointed with it. It’s a little more simple…[‘Bound 2’s’ music video] is kind of a love story, in a way.”
In September, Kanye West and Jimmy Kimmel were involved in a feud after the talk show host spoofed one of West’s interviews.
West called Kimmel’s spoof “out of line,” and in a series of Twitter updates, the rapper accused Kimmel of being unfunny and said the talk show host had sexual relations with actor Ben Affleck.
In October, Kimmel and West ended their feud on Kimmel’s talk show, “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”
“Jimmy does his thing,” West said during the “Live!’ interview. “I do my thing. At a certain point, these egos can flare up. We kind of just took it to high school a little bit.”
In February, James Franco was accused of using RiFF RaFF’s style in the film Spring Breakers.
“The storyline ain’t mine but no one on Earth can deny that James Franco’s image and appearance characteristics are RiFF RaFF all day,” RiFF said in an interview, as per MTV. “All I want is credit for his image and I’m confused why a superstar actor with millions of dollars would steal and deny credit from a new upcoming rapper like myself who hasn’t even dropped an album yet. What a fuckin’ asshole — I would never do any bullshit like that if I was in his position.”

kanye is mad as hell
He should be. Bound 2 was a serious piece of creative genius. This is fugazi.
LOLOLOL creative genius
LMAO! bound 2 was simply terrible
For real. I liked Kim’s part in Ray J’s video a lot more.
Rogen and Franco are living legends. They just ethered the fuck out of Kanye in jest. Hopefully this will force him to reconsider his future video concepts.
For his next video Kanye will just be in a pile of naked bitches. Let’s see if these two bros want to make a homo-erotic parody of that video.
i wonder if kanye gonna diss them on twitter or in a rant at his next show?
oh you know some shits about to go down
I think Kanye’s whole career has been leading up to this point, so thank you for making this video possible Yeezy. You laid the blueprint, Franco and Rogen made the magic happen. Greatest music video ever! BAM!
Kim is trash but damn she looked good in the real video. Id still screw the crap outta her even though i cant stand what she stands for.
Fuckin Hilarious
This shit got me feeling so damn hard right now. Got a raging boner going on

Now, thanks to the laziness & shiftlessness of the black man, rap music is being used as a severe copout to escape their life in the ghetto instead of working hard, going to college, and earning a degree.
RIP James Franco and Seth Rogen.
