JAMES Franco has bared his flesh again — but this time it’s for a good cause, not for a skeezy Instagram post. See the pics here.

JAMES Franco is flashing his flesh again — and for once, it’s for a good cause rather than a creepy Instagram post.

The actor, who’s been notorious in recent months for posting, and then often hastily deleting, Instagram pictures of himself wearing next to nothing, fronted up to the Broadway Bares charity benefit in New York this week.

The annual event brings together Broadway’s best performers for a rather more revealing night of entertainment, all in the name of HIV/AIDS fundraising.

Franco made a cameo appearance on stage, dutifully dropping trou’ and showing off his behind to the audience.

Franco, let this be a lesson to you: share your naked body with the masses sparingly and you’ll be greeted by an appreciative audience.

Post weird, sweaty, dead-eyed pics of yourself in grandpa undies on Instagram? Not so much.
