WATCH: James Franco Perform a Selena Gomez Song

Who doesn't like singing in the car? The actor takes on his Spring Breakers costar's saccharine hit

Renaissance man James Franco can add master lip syncher to his long list of abilities. The actor, dressed in his getup from the movie Spring Breakers, posted a video of himself expressively lip-synching to costar Selena Gomez's hit "Love You Like a Love Song."

Watch James' take on Selena's song!

It's unclear where Franco was heading or who was filming the video in the car with him, but it's still pretty hilarious to watch him mouth the chirpy lyrics in his characteristically "Method" manner.

And if you're wondering why the 127 Hours actor is channeling Kevin Federline, he's sporting cornrows, a goatee, and a plaid shirt for his role in the Harmony Korine comedy, which recently finished filming.

Franco, 33, plays a drug dealer who blackmails a group of young women (including Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens) to do his bidding. Perhaps this video, however, was at the bequest of one of his lovely costars (check out the a girlish giggle at the end of the video).

And Franco isn't the only person doing a version of the popular single. According to E! News, the song will also appear in an upcoming episode of Glee. Rachel (Lea Michele) will sing "Love You Like a Love Song" in the much-anticipated prom episode.

Unlike Franco, Michele's rendition of the song will feature her actually singing.
