Australian Show Host Says 'Fifty Shades of Grey' Is 'Domestic Violence Dressed Up as Erotica'
Movie

Lisa Wilkinson of Australian 'Today' show shares her thoughts on the much-talked-about movie starring Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson, slamming the movie on TV show.

AceShowbiz - A co-host on Australia's Channel 9 "Today" show is not a fan of "Fifty Shades of Grey". The TV personality, Lisa Wilkinson, shared her thoughts on the raunchy movie based on E.L. James' book of the same name during a recent episode of the show, calling the movie starring Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan "domestic violence dressed up as erotica."

"Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey is a thirtysomething jerk of a billionaire who never seems to work. An emotionally crippled narcissist no one could love," Wilkinson starts. "Meanwhile, Dakota Johnson is the one-dimensional lip biting (could someone please get that girl a chapstick!) totally pathetic Anastasia Steele who, for no discernible reason, falls in love with the aforementioned jerk and singlehandedly sells women across the world short."

"Yes, Fifty Shades of Grey is more appalling than appealing. It's domestic violence dressed up as erotica. And if there's one thing this movie is not, it's erotic," she continued.

Amid the controversy surrounding "Fifty Shades of Grey", the cast members of the highly-anticipated movie celebrated the premiere of the film in London's Leicester Square on Thursday evening, February 12. Johnson looks beautiful in a white dress by Saint Laurent with a plunging neckline. Director Sam Taylor-Johnson and her husband as well as E.L. James were also present at the event.

Dornan, meanwhile, looked dapper in a dark suit. Posing for cameras with his wife, the Irish actor said his wife Amelia Warner would not watch the movie. "She hasn't seen the film and I don't think she will, to be honest. I'd understand if she didn't want to," he shared, as quoted by The Telegraph. "I think there's some stuff where my family and friends will never have seen that side of me before, but it wasn't enough to make me not want to do it."

"Fifty Shades of Grey" is coming to theaters Stateside this weekend. Rita Ora, Luke Grimes, Andrew Airlie, Marcia Gay Harden and Eloise Mumford are also on board the film as supporting actors.
