“I don’t even know if I should tell this story. But I was at a Hollywood event, I brought my son with me, and I ran into a friend of mine and his, at the time, fiancée,” James said.
James continued, “She’d had a couple of drinks and she turned to me — he was standing over here, but not really listening. She goes, ‘I have a confession.’ And I said, ‘Uh-oh. Can my son hear this?’ He’s 18, but whatever. She goes, ‘The first time I ever masturbated was to you as Corny Collins in Hairspray.”
“I thought that was a really innocent, sort of sweet thing to say because I don’t really think of that character, or even that movie, as being something that would elicit that sort of behavior. But she did!” James said. “And his head snapped on a swivel and said, ‘What is my girlfriend saying?’ And she goes, ‘Oh, I’m telling him the Hairspray story!’”
James is still close friends with the couple and even attended their wedding!
James‘ son Jack is about to turn 24, which means the moment happened around five to six years ago.
