In the city of love and lights.
As part of Fifty Shades Freed promo and the premiere which took place in Paris, France, Jamie Dornan, Dakota Johnson, Rita Ora and Liam Payne (who have a collaboration on the Freed OST) stopped by C A Vous in Paris for a spectacular interview.
The interview is lengthy – yay! – and has been provided by C A Vous in two parts followed by a music performance.
The first part focuses solely on Jamie and Dakota where they’re asked about what gets them through those awkward sex scenes, what they do to prepare for them and how Paris is a change of scenery for the Premiere, usually held in London.
Because Paris is such an important part of the third book (and movie) it was only fitting to hold the premiere there. And what a change in scenery – what is normally a chaotic, loud (from the screaming) and overwhelming experience, Paris proved to be quite different where most of the screaming happens internally.
The interviews are in French with Jamie and Dakota’s voices dubbed over, but if you listen closely enough, you can hear them responding in English.
During the first part of the second clip, the interviewers took Dakota down memory lane with old red carpet interviews from her childhood and even the milk ad she was in with mom Melanie. She was even shown an interview of her mom from back in the day that had her feeling emotional; she had never seen it before.
Jamie was asked about his modelling days and working alongside models like Kate Moss and Eva Mendes for noteable agencies including Hugo Boss, Armani, Calvin Klein and Dior.
The second part of the interview invites Rita Ora (who plays Mia Grey, Christian’s sister) and Liam Payne who collaborated on the Fifty Shades Freed anthem ‘For You.’
Rita and Liam even performed ‘For You’ live, while Jamie and Dakota watched. Watch them belt out the song below.
There aren’t many photos from the interview but anything we have you can find in the gallery.
