For those of you who have never heard of the series, Shades of Gray and it's sequels are actually a trilogy of erotic novels that started, I kid you not, as Twilight-based fanfiction. Sounds like something straight from the bowels of the ninth layer of hell, right? Well, on it's own, it generally is from what I've heard of it-but there is one thing that not only makes it survivable, but downright freaking GLORIOUS.

A lot of celebrities have done celebrity readings of the book-including Ellen DeGeneres and other notables-but none, NONE, come close to the incredible glory that is erotic fiction read by none other than Gilbert Gottfried. Yes, you read that right. The voice of Iago the parrot, the roach dude from Thumbelina, and any character that needs a loud, biting voice-reading erotic fiction.

I just about choked and died laughing so hard at the youtube video with just a taste of the reading!
