“Fifty Shades of Grey” is Extremely Popular in the South

Date:

According to reports, Mississippi has bought four times as many tickets to Fifty Shades of Grey than any other state in the country.

The highly-anticipated big-screen version of E.L. James‘ best-selling erotic novel is selling more advance tickets than the average in many Southern and Midwestern states, according to Fandango. In particular, pre-sales for Fifty Shades are nearly four times better than average pre-sales in Mississippi, the online ticket retailer added. Sales are, similarly, at least two-times better than expected in Arkansas, West Virginia, Kentucky, Alabama and Louisiana. [via]

Fifty Shades of Grey hits theaters on Feb. 13 and it is already the fastest-selling R-Rated movie in recent history.
