Joe M. for the role of Christian Grey!

How about the fans starting a Twitter & FaceBook campaign to let the powers that be know that we want him for the role of Christian Grey when they make the movie version of 50 Shades of Grey? He was on Chelsea Lately a few wks. ago & was asked about it & sd. if that's what the fans want or something to that effect & then shrugged his shoulders. Yes, that's what we fans want. He has the perfect combo of steaminess & sex appeal & for those people who are not familiar with him, this would make him a household name I believe. Look what the fans did for Betty White; it gave her career a resurgence so sometimes people do listen when the fans talk. What does everyone else think about this idea?

I am with you on that sister !! Although Christian in the novel is a twenty seven years old blond with colored eyes, which has nothing to do with Joe, but I think he'd make a great Christian Grey !!
Even on Wendy Williams the same topic was brought up and he didn't seem to mind. So YES we need to start a campaign : JOE FOR GREY !!

Maybe when the movie gets made, they will take some creative license & change Christian's physical appearance somewhat. I personally love the tall, dark & smoldering type & I think the majority of women do too. The movie would break box office records in its opening week with him in the lead! Hopefully this will come to be someday soon.
