Ashley Benson: Filming 'Spring Breakers' Threesome With Vanessa Hudgens And James Franco Was ‘Very Comfortable’
Ashley Benson, best known as Hannah on ABC Family’s Pretty Little Liars, opened up about filming a threesome with Vanessa Hudgens and James Franco on the set of her new movie Spring Breakers.
“I’m really happy I had Vanessa to be there with me, and James, he’s done this a million times. He didn’t make it awkward at all. We were very comfortable,” Benson said. "[Director Harmony Korine] wanted us to be comfortable, or else it would have looked weird. Vanessa and I were so thankful that we were so close and had each other because any intimate scene is very awkward. Even kissing a guy on screen is awkward because you have people all around you filming as well as an audience so I don’t know, it turned out amazing.
“We didn’t start till midnight so, the whole day it was raining, freezing cold, and I just went to the store and bought a ton of groceries and started eating a lot, then I went to set and discussed the scene with Harmony, Vanessa and James. We just did it, and then it was done!”
Spring Breakers is a film about four female college students who rob a fast food joint in order to pay for their spring break shenanigans. Once they get caught for the robbery, a drug dealer played by Franco bails them out, indebting them to him in the process. Selena Gomez and Rachel Korine join Benson and Hudgens to round out the group of four twentysomethings intent on a wild spring break.
Hudgens was less enthusiastic than Benson when she was asked about the much-hyped threesome. "It was very nerve-racking for me," Hudgens told Glow magazine back in November. "I told my agent that I never want to do it ever again."
