Jessie Pavelka is Christian Grey. At least that's what many, many "Fifty Shades of Grey" fans believe. His picture is being used for the unofficial Christian Grey Twitter page and his name has been mentioned quite a few times to star as the kinky DBSM obsessed billionaire.
The "Diet Tribe" host has the physical description of Grey- tall, broad shouldered, piercing eyes, a killer smile, hair you can see him constantly running his hand through and nice chiseled abs. He doesn't have a lot of acting experience, which would be to his benefit as it has been rumored that E.L. James and "Team 50" are looking for lesser known actors.
Recently the 30-year-old fitness guru did an interview with Northwest Prime in Seattle where he spoke about all the Christian Grey buzz. Even though he admitted that he hasn't read the book, Pavelka did say that someone gave him the first book and he skimmed through it.
"I don't know if... as far as the content... [it] is made for me but I could see why people would like it. I can definitely see why people have taken to it," he said. "It's a bit of a phenomenon in a way and I think it's pretty great that people have latched on to it and are enjoying it.. That's pretty special."
He said he's too busy to sit down and read the book admitting that he has heard a lot of good things about it. The best part of the interview is probably when the hunky trainer said that he would definitely be open to more movie roles, even romance.
"I would be very open to new roles, for sure," he said.
Right now his schedule consists of fitness gigs like the TV host of UK's Sky Living "Fat: The Fight of my Life." Pavelka told the interviewer that he has not been approached by anyone for the movie.
According to International Business Times, Pavelka has acknowledged the Christian Grey buzz in the past and sad that he was flattered by all the attention.
"I think it's great and I'm extremely flattered. It's amazing how social media has changed the game in TV and film. If this would have happened a few years back, I don't think that my name would be in the mix at all. I am lucky to be involved in the beginning stages of it all," he said.
