Watch 'Fifty Shades' star Jamie Dornan eat his own abs, in cake form
LatestThis weekend, Jamie Dornan visited The Graham Norton Show, the latest stop in his Fifty Shades of Grey public humiliation tour. Norton gleefully unveiled a cake made to resemble Dornan’s character, sadistic billionaire Christian Grey.
Baker Rose Dummer reports that it took her team more than two weeks to construct the life-sized dessert — it didn’t go bad in the meantime? — which comes complete with an edible licorice flogger. This is obviously an impressive feat of pastry, even if the face looks a bit more like a melty Robert Pattinson. (Our biggest criticism: cake Christian Grey is wearing slouchy, distressed cake jeans. Not buying it.)
Norton slices Grey’s fondant stomach open, giving us all a sense of what Fifty Shades might look like remade as a niche horror movie. Try as he might to hide under his thick beard, Dornan — whose regret over deciding to have anything to do with this movie is, as always, painfully palpable — was obliged to try a bite.
Yup, that’s what selling your soul to the Devil tastes like. Watch the full segment here:
