Fifty Shades Trailer: Ellen DeGeneres Spoof

ana walking towards christian as he plays piano

The internet seems to meltdown everytime there is a new glimpse of Jamie Dornan’s torso in the upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey movie, but we think talkshow host Ellen Degeneres? spin on all things red room and sub-dom contract might be just the antidote to all the hot flush madness.

On Ellen’s show yesterday she shared with the world the Fifty Shades trailer starring her as Anastasia Steele, not ?Dakota Johnson. As for this casting change, Ellen sums it up as thus, ?Because no one knows their way around a whip more than me.?

We rather like Ellen’s interpretation of the virginal protagonist, very kooky and indentifiable? Also, isn’t everyone a Billy Joel fan?So what do you think? How does it compare to the actual Fifty Shades trailer below? Would you rather see Ellen in the lead role?Follow Jeanne Sutton on Twitter @jeannedesutun
