Dakota Johnson experiences wardrobe malfunction during Jimmy Kimmel interview: 'It just fell off'

Actor Dakota Johnson experienced a wardrobe malfunction on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’. The ‘Madame Web’ star's dress ‘fell off’ during the live interview, prompting host Jimmy Kimmel to ask if she was okay. After several attempts to fix it, the 34-year-old actor finally said, ‘Well, I'll just hold it.’

The ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ star appeared on the late-night talk show to discuss her new film, ‘Daddio’. Directed by Christy Hall and set to release on June 28, the drama stars Sean Penn alongside Johnson in the lead roles.

Midway through the interview, Kimmel presented a clip from the film to the audience.

As the video clip played, Kimmel noticed Johnson struggling with her dress. He quickly expressed concern, saying, ‘Dakota, your dress just came unhooked. Are you all right?’ He even offered to help, suggesting, ‘Should I get some Scotch tape?’ Johnson responded, ‘My dress—it just fell off!’ and added, ‘Well, I'll just hold it.’

For the interview, the ‘Persuasion’ star wore a sleek black dress with floral metal pieces serving as straps. One of the straps appeared to be broken, forcing Johnson to hold it up around her chest to prevent it from falling. As they laughed off the situation, Kimmel quipped, ‘Just hold the important part. There you go.’

This isn't the first time Johnson has faced a wardrobe malfunction on live television. During the 2019 People's Choice Awards, she experienced a mishap with her dress while accepting the award for Favourite Dramatic Movie Actress from Leslie Mann. When she hugged Mann, her two-piece dress broke, causing the top to nearly fall down. She joked, ‘It's not like nobody here hasn't already seen my boobs,’ referencing her nude scenes in the ‘Fifty Shades’ franchise.
