Dakota Johnson is a guest on the Wednesday (November 27) episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show and her interview turned awkward pretty quickly!
Ellen started off the interview by wishing Dakota a belated happy birthday and asking why she wasn’t invited to her birthday party. Dakota said she DID invite her, but that’s not even the awkward part.
“Tig Notaro performed at your party? What did she do?” Ellen asked.
“She did, it was a surprise! [She did] a bunch of funny stuff. She’s my favorite comedian,” Dakota said before awkwardly adding “other than you.” She then got off the couch and said goodbye, but went back to the seat right after.
After Dakota said she was sorry, Ellen replied, “No, no. I was just talking to my favorite actress the other day, Jennifer Aniston.”
Ellen had Tig perform at her birthday party recently too and Dakota was there, so Ellen asked if that’s where they first met. Dakota then revealed that she had to leave that party early and missed the set!
There was also an awkward moment when Ellen brought up Dakota‘s boyfriend Chris Martin and she clearly didn’t want to say much about their relationship.
Later in the interview, Dakota brought out her The Peanut Butter Falcon co-star Zack Gottsagen to talk about their inspiring movie.
FYI: Dakota is wearing an Alessandra Rich dress and Alexandre Birman shoes.
