Remove mailto anchor from DisplayFor

Question

I have the following model property:

[DataType(DataType.EmailAddress)]
public string EmailAddress { get; set; }

When I use the displayfor:

@Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.EmailAddress)

it adds a 'mailto' anchor to the text. Is there anyway I can specify for it not to include this?

Thanks
