11 things with more sex appeal than 50 Shades' Christian Grey.

And we could have listed 12,000,000.

50 Shades of Grey has been getting women around the world hot and bothered since the first book was published in 2011. So, millions flocked to the cinema when the movie was released last week – ready for a big ol’ perve-fest. The world was ready for Christian Grey, played by Jamie Dornan, to be a total sex-pot.

And… the world was severely, severely disappointed. #SorryJamie

We were also left wondering if Dornan wasn’t allowed toilet breaks on set or if he needs more fibre in his diet because it was really just 125 minutes of Christian Grey’s I-need-to-poo face.

And his attempts at sulky seduction got more laughs than groans.

Seriously lady, call 000. That scene belongs in a horror movie.
