Let's gossip about 50 shades of Grey.

50 shades of Grey came into my life just over a month ago now. I am obsessed with it! Whenever I can, I will delve into the world of Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey. At first, I wont lie, I found it weird. I didn't like how graphic the book was about s&m. I also didn't like how far from reality the book was, however I kept telling myself that I needed to see it as a fantasy. There is a reason this book is so popular, and I don't think it is because it is basically a book of porn. I think it is because girls like to have a world to escape to, and 50 shades of grey is so far from reality, that it is the perfect place to escape to.


The book has received criticism on how it allows men to act like Christian Grey, and treat women as sex slaves. Girls who read the book need to remember it is a fantasy, it isn't something that would work in real life. Playing a submissive sounds dangerous. Then again, I may be completely wrong. You tell me.


I am most excited about the film that is going to be made. Who will play the characters?


I imagine Anastasia Steele to look a lot like Kristen Stewart.

However, I think Amanda Seyfried is a much better actress and would play Anastasia Steele perfectly! Ana is described to have eyes too big for her face. Amanda has gorgeous big eyes...

Then again, I could also see Selena Gomez or Emma Watson taking on the role...

As for Christian Grey... he is going to be the toughest character to cast I am sure. He has to be off the radar on the looks scale. In the book he is portrayed as a young guy, with smouldering good looks. In my opinion, Hayden Christensen nearly fits the bill.

But then again, I can easily see Alex O'loughlin playing Christian Grey... I would very much like him to.

Apparently Ian Somerhalder wants in on the movie. Yes, he looks a lot like I imagine Christian Grey to, however, he is a crap actor, so no thanks.

Who do you think best fits this image? The image drawn up by an artist of what Christian Grey should apparently look like. (Exact lookalike of Alex O'loughlin in my opinion)

Nevermind who plays who, I am so excited for the movie!
