E.L. James against Twilight stars in Fifty Shades of Grey movie

Her books may have been inspired by the Twilight Saga, but E.L. James wants nothing to do with Twilight couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart after the scandal in the news.

They may have been every fan’s favorite on screen couple, but since Kristen Stewart cheated on her sparkling vampire boyfriend Robert Pattinson, all the negative press has rubbed E.L. James up the wrong way.

Many fans wanted to see Pattinson and Stewart take up the steamy roles of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in the movie version of Fifty Shades of Grey, but author E.L. James says she doesn’t want them to star in the movie adaptation of her books.

“It would just be… ugh, weird!” says 48-year-old E.L. James when asked about casting the pair in the movie. Having Robert Pattinson, aged 26, and 22-year-old Kristen Stewart would be a disaster, according to James, especially with all the negative press being focused on the once beloved Twilight couple.

It does seem like E.L. James has her own ideas about who to cast as the enigmatic Christian Grey and the shy and submissive Anastasia Steele.

“I have four people in mind,” says E.L. James, “But I can’t discuss the film which is a real shame.”

Recently, her husband Niall Leonard let is slip that E.L. James is considering Ryan Gosling for the role of Christian Grey, whereas others believe she got her inspiration from a fragrance ad Henry Cavill made while she was writing the books.

At the moment, we can only speculate as to who’ll be E.L. James’s pick for the casting. At the moment other heavy contenders include Ian Somerhalder from the Vampire Diaries, Alexander Skarsgard from HBO’s True Blood and Matt Bomer, whose sexuality has made him a controversial role but also a fan favorite.

It seems that E.L. James is going to remain tight-lipped about the casting, and while fans are going crazy with their personal picks, the UK based author said it was “too early” to think about casting on her Twitter stream a few weeks back. So who do you think E.L. James’s choices are for Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele?

The secret to Fifty Shades of Grey – and it’s not just the sex!

Fifty Shades of Grey has rocketed up to the number one spot on the charts and has held onto the number one position like a dominatrix in heat. However, while many cite the books’ success to the hot sex scenes there is another kind of porn that has been making the books a smash hit – food porn.

In our modern society, we have such an unhealthy relationship with food – we either eat too much or too little. In Fifty Shades of Grey, Ana Steele has an issue with eating, only choosing to feed once or twice a day, making us wonder if the Fifty Shades of Grey heroine has an eating disorder.

However, along comes Christian Grey who wants Ana to eat and in fact, puts this down in her contract half way through book one in the Fifty Shades of Grey series. It’s sexy for Ana to eat, and seeing a man as hot and wanted as Christian, Fifty Shades of Grey is giving us a positive representation of food many of us need.

It’s become sexy to eat and to eat healthily. And having a man like Christian wanting us to eat is a breath of fresh air for many women. But not only that, Fifty Shades of Grey is full of graphic descriptions of yummy food and sometimes we just want to yell at Ana for not wanting to devour it then and there.

Christian Grey has an issue with wasted food, as we should, and perhaps 50 Shades of Grey will help us evaluate the way we eat. We don’t need to gorge ourselves into excess, but it’s not a crime to take in three meals a day.

So while many say that it’s the sex that makes Fifty Shades of Grey a sexy book, and indeed we love the sex scene, what we do love about Fifty Shades of Grey is its positive relationship with food. It’s sexy to read the dinner leading up to the foreplay between Christian and Ana, and it’s sexy to have a man who wants us to eat. Fifty Shades of Grey, we thank you!
