E. L. James “Fifty Shades” Real-Life Inspiration | TODAY
porque solo tenian que ser tres :c?
Katie is such a crack up She is quik with her come back
Zalman King who did Red Shoe Daries and Anne Rice Sleeping Beauty are wayyyyyyy hotter than Fifty Shades Of Grey
Sex is a big thing now please…. There are other erotic books way hotter than Fifty Shades and Bared To You Trilogy is hotter and EL James based this movie off of Twilight! Secretary was a movie and its based off of that movie Secretary and I hope Stephine Myer sues EL James
I don’t understand why many people dislike, hate or state that the book was poorly written. I honestly enjoyed the first one very much. I actually preferred the book rather than the film adaptation. It wasn’t just cliche like most people say, but the book was overall very humorous, exciting, interesting and hot. I enjoyed it very much and it is one of my favourite books. Also the book is not just sexual, but it contains real-life situations to do with abuse, foster/adoptive families, difficult childhoods. As well incredibly well thought out and smart remarks/inside jokes between the main characters.
People can have their own opinions but this book was extremely enjoyable, interesting, exciting, humourous and so much more.
She looks like Hermony from Harry Potter even better looking.
I’ve read hotter FanFiction on Tumblr
your self esteem would have to be on the floor to think 50 shades of Grey is a relationship to aspire to
Dont know how the characters originally started out as Bella and Edward. Their story was a bit different. I’m glad she chose to make those changes. Twilight, as I liked it, was better in its own right. 50 shades is way off in another different direction. I like the books so far and thought the movie was tastefully down. Not sure why there is so much degradation in the books or the movie. You have to be able to process human feelings and the artistic interpretation. I think a lot of people are lost. 50 shades has won me over. As a woman in my mid 30s, this love story focuses on give and take and what it takes to be in a relationship and make sacrifices. And understanding of human emotion and how it’s processed. Christian learns what normalcy means as we get into the 2nd book… He makes great strides…
It would be great an ERB EL James vs. Marquis de Sade
She looks like older Dakota
For a writer, she seems kind of…basic. Most writers are quite eloquent. This lady strings together a ton of cliches and pauses. Seeing as how poorly written the book was, it is not surprising.
She talks like she writes – very poorly.
The one in the middle seems kinda bitchy
die hat aber ganz schön was auf den Rippen ist das Sexy ?
So, in other words she was bored with her career, saw the success of Twilight skyrocket and thought "Hm, I’m an older woman that knows words, too. Maybe I’ll just borrow Bella and Edward… Yes… "
Please. Spare me the "success story" with this woman. We could all do with a little less "50" in this world. Even the actors think so.
"fake sex, with a person they hate, in a movie they made for a job they regret"

"middle life crisis"
Jamie Dornan is way hotter than Robert. I’m sorry…
How come these books are popular when she has written poorly? I don’t got it.
The character in the film sort of looks like the writer, very cute woman. Thanks for writing that awsome book!
She looks like Dakota Johnson plus about thirty years. It’s so close it’s scary.
Nobody here watched Secretary?
…It still shouldn’t have sold more than Harry Potter in the UK.
She looks nervous as if they are going to comment on how poorly the book was written.
I’m not a fan of the story (mainly for how it presents BDSM and Christian Grey). But as for people complaining that it was just a fan fic based off of Twilight, writers ALWAYS build on culture and previous works. Look at all the retellings of classic fairy tales.
the books is trassshhh
When did british authors start writing shirty material?
I guess I see a mixed message in the popularity of this book in the era of #MeToo.
I shutter when I think of all of the talented yet struggling authors out there who never receive any real level of success. It must be nice to become so rich on such low quality books – and with characters that were derived from yet another set of low quality books. The book doesn’t even have the decency to be top tier fan fiction – it definitely ranks near the bottom, with the shocking realization that it was likely a lot worse before the editors got their hands on it.
She looks like Hank from Breaking Bad in a black wig.
E.L James please do continuation of Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) and Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) with their children, continued after married family please !! It’s what we fans most want, it would be an extraordinary success.
🇧🇷 E.L James, por favor continue com Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) e Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) com seus filhos, continuou depois da família casada por favor !! É o que os fãs mais querem, seria um sucesso extraordinário.💙
I didn’t think she was going to look like that …I don’t know why..
