Gilbert Gottfried reads 50 Shades of Grey. If you like punishment, you'll like this video.

** Fifty Shades of Grey is a 2011 erotic romance novel by British author E. L. James. It became the first instalment in the Fifty Shades novel series that follows the deepening relationship between a college graduate, Anastasia Steele, and a young business magnate, Christian Grey. It is notable for its explicitly erotic scenes featuring elements of sexual practices involving BDSM. Originally self-published as an ebook and print-on-demand in June 2011, the publishing rights to the novel were acquired by Vintage Books in March 2012.

Fifty Shades of Grey has topped best-seller lists around the world, selling over 125 million copies worldwide by June 2015. It has been translated into 52 languages, and set a record in the United Kingdom as the fastest-selling paperback of all time. Critical reception of the book, however, has tended towards the negative, with the quality of its prose generally seen as poor, while its portrayal of BDSM has been targeted for criticism from a variety of perspectives. Universal Pictures and Focus Features produced an American film adaptation, which was released on 13 February 2015, and also received unfavourable reviews even though it was a box office success.

The second and third volumes of the original trilogy, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed, were published in 2012. A version of the novel from Christian's point of view, Grey: Fifty Shades of Grey as Told by Christian, was published in June 2015 as the fourth book. Darker: Fifty Shades Darker as Told by Christian, published in November 2017, is the fifth book in the series.

Gilbert Gottfried possessed one of the most famous voices in modern American entertainment. The voice was his professional signature and disembodied calling card. But that was not exactly how he spoke behind the scenes.

Gottfried, who died on April 12, 2022 after a long illness, reportedly exaggerated his vocal style to make people laugh. The radio shock jock Howard Stern once played a clip of a voicemail message from Gottfried. The voice on the line was virtually unrecognizable.

Yes, Gottfried could be gleefully offensive. He was a button-pushing "comedian's comedian" and a lifelong provocateur. He tossed off one-liners about national tragedies and other seemingly out-of-bounds topics with reckless abandon.

He was "much calmer and more soft-spoken in person than onstage," New York Times reporter Dave Itzkoff wrote in an illuminating 2013 profile. The headline: "Vulgarity’s Abrasive Master, but Not at Home."
