U.S. Olympian Lolo Jones won’t be racing to theaters to watch “Fifty Shades of Grey.”
The bobsled and track and field athlete, who revealed in 2012 that she was remaining a virgin until marriage, had some harsh words for the racy drama on Twitter.
“Funny how some people think there's nothing wrong with '50 (Shades) of Grey,'” she tweeted Tuesday. “God didn't create sex for that purpose. Watch another movie.”
