SPIDER-MAN star JAMES FRANCO learned his best acting tricks while working at the drive-through of McDonalds.

Franco dropped out of acting classes at the prestigious UCLA university, but soon found he could practise his craft while handing over hamburgers.
He tells Jane Magazine, "My parents were paying for my expenses while I was going to UCLA, but once I decided to leave, they wouldn't pay for me anymore.

"I couldn't find a restaurant that would hire me as a waiter, (so) I worked (at McDonald's) for a couple of months, and I was kind of bored.

"I worked the drive-through, and I tried out different accents - Italian, Russian, Irish - and just kind of worked on my acting. I guess that was obnoxious."

So now it makes sense why he always makes fun of the interviewers accents... I think its cute

I know someone (well, I don't really 'know' her) who goes to UCLA and he had made fun of her accent and exaggerated how country it was. I want him to make fun of my voice too...

He can try out as many accents as he wants!

I wonder how awkward he must feel when he walks down the hallway at school and everyone is staring at him like...whoa, isn't that person famous??? And than telling all their friends what little shit you do like, he tied his shoe and had bad looking hair that day, lol. I'd feel weird talking to him.. had I gotten the chance. I can only imagine. And after he walks by I squee really hard LOL. But make sure he's not in ear shot......

I dislike this man more and more every year, and I'm only really writing this to punch Faye Dunaway out of the top spot (sick of seeing her and her dumb age on the front page).

If I got served by a guy at Maccas who spoke in an Italian accent one day, and Russian the next, I'd be all in his face like "Yo, are you f***ing wit me bro?" and then scare the shit out of him and get his real accent out in the open.

In my head.

You mean you would eat McDonalds daily just to get served by James Franco? It's OK, I get it.

I haven't had one of those in a long time. Now you make me want one, lol. My favorite was always the cookies and cream and the M&Ms. I seem to remember them having some sort of chocolatey crunch thingamabob.
