E.L. James’ takeover after wrapping Darker & Freed

EL James made even more of our wishes come true when she did a “takeover” of the Fifty Shades Instagram and posted some of the best pics we’ve seen. There are finally more photos of Jamie Dornan, who has stayed mostly out of the behind-the-scenes pics — and several more that have us really excited.

We know! We know! It’s so exciting to see Jamie, our Christian Grey, in action and in candid shots taken by none other than Erika herself. The set looks amazing. The locations are so romantic. Dakota looks stunning and … well … see for yourself.

and then we had the final take:

and it’s a wrap:

Grammy win for The Weeknd!

Abel Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd, brought the chorus of his massive hit “Cant’ Feel My Face” to the Grammys stage, flanked by a mirrored club interior. Shortly there after Tesfaye, in a conservative tux with his signature hair globule, sauntered to a cello and piano, singing “In the Night” from last year’s Beauty Behind the Madness in his distinctive contralto.

The Weeknd was nominated for  Best Record and Best Pop Solo Performance for “Can’t Feel My Face,” Best R&B Performance for “Earned It (Fifty Shades of Grey)” and Best Urban Contemporary Album and Album of the Year for Beauty Behind the Madness.

He took home the best R&B Perfomance for “Earnet it”!

Leslie Mann And Dakota Johnson Blatantly Hit On This Reporter

The 26-year-old Fifty Shades of Grey actress and her hilarious costar teamed up in support of their new film, which hits theaters on February 12. Considering how they were sitting for scores of press interviews on the same day, the duo were either bored out of their minds or simply overjoyed to find that Chris Van Vliet from WSVN in Miami was one heck of a hot male reporter.

So they decided to shake things up – an it is hilarious!

It started innocently enough, with both Leslie and Dakota commenting on Chris’s good looks, before it quickly turned into the actresses trying to hook up their single friends on set with the eligible bachelor — and then requesting that he take off his clothing so they could enjoy him.

Check out the video here.

Van Vliet – the reporter – also takes advantage of the opportunity to try out a few of his best pick up lines. “Are you Google? Because you’re exactly what I’ve been searching for” is not well received, but “I don’t have a library card, but can I check you out?” definitely gets a shocked and delighted giggle out of both of the actresses. Honestly, the whole thing is so charming that you’ll wish they were promoting a more promising film.

Antonio Banderas Reveals Real Reason He Won’t See ‘Fifty Shades’

Dakota Johnson got the seal of approval from mom Melanie Griffith and dad Don Johnson to take on the controversial role of Anastasia Steele in Fifty Shades of Grey. But, as we’ve learned since the movie’s release, that doesn’t necessarily mean they want to watch their little girl have kinky on-screen sex. Now, we finally get to hear from another important father figure in Dakota’s life: her stepfather Antonio Banderas.

Banderas, who was married to Griffith for 18 years until their recent divorce, has had nothing but glowing things to say about his stepdaughter’s talent and promising career. He admitted that he felt Fifty Shades was a great opportunity for her and thinks she is going to be a superstar who can take on both comedic and dramatic roles.

But, up until now, he remained silent about whether he would actually be able to sit through Fifty Shades—unlike his ex Griffith, who has more or less said it will be a cold day in hell before she watches Jamie Dornan’s sexy Christian Grey tie up her daughter and have his way with her.

The cat’s out of the bag: you can add Banderas to the list of family member who refuse to see Fifty Shades of Grey.

Is he being unsupportive? Absolutely not. His reasons for avoiding the movie are totally understandable. When asked by ITV’s Loose Women whether he had seen her movie, he had the following to say:

No, no, no. Dakota, when she was 4 years old, I changed her [diapers]. It’s very weird to go and see the movie. If it was on television one day, I will pass.

Movies are make believe and I do find it a little odd that no one in Dakota’s family will watch Fifty Shades. You have to wonder how the actress feels knowing she can’t truly share her biggest career success thus far with the people who matter most to her.

Then again, she has made a point of telling her mom and dad NOT to watch the movie and I’m sure she respects the fact that the titillating content is not everyone’s cup of tea.

Anyway, there you go: three of the most important people in Dakota’s life are in total agreement about at least one thing: Fifty Shades is not on any of their must-see lists.

What do you think about Dakota’s stepdad and other family members refusing to watch Fifty Shades of Grey?

Official start of filming Darker!
