James Franco & Frida Giannini Cover i-D Magazine

James Franco and Freida Giannini, head designer of Gucci, take the Fall 2009 cover of British contemporary style guide, i-D Magazine.

The inside photo spread will feature both Frida and James, who has been the face of Gucci by Gucci’s men’s fragrance.

James will begin his a multi-episode arc on ABC soap opera General Hospital starting Nov. 20. His character is a “mystery man” who comes to the soap opera’s town of Port Charles. Don’t forget to watch or DVR it!

Gucci, i-D Magazine, celebrities…this is an amazing mix. Too bad the cover photo is at such a strange angle. Hard to see that it is Franco but I’m sure die hard fans will snap it up in the UK. That said, we write comedy at StuffRichPeopleLove.com not analyze photographs so what do we know about covers art. We aren’t really known for our aesthetics afterall!

I think Frida looks a bit like Hayden Panettiere from Heroes. Again, weird camera angle!

@ Greek Goddess. I can assure you that woman is not that weird looking. She is the rather attractive and normal looking creative director of Gucci. They have just photoshopped the heck out of her poor face.

James Franco is a handsome chap but there is something about his face that tells me he may like the crack pipe or some narcotic pastime which is eating away at his looks.
