Fresh Off Blockbuster Weekend, 50 Shades Of Grey Star Dakota Johnson Returns Home To Media Frenzy
Posted on Thu Feb 19th, 2015 2:09pm PDT By X17 Staff
Last week, Dakota Johnson left Los Angeles a barely known star, but now that her new film 50 Shades of Grey won big at the box office over the weekend, she's coming home as Hollywood's hottest "It" girl. Not a bad life for the daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith!
Over the past week, Dakota has been painting the Big Apple red with her TV appearances for the film as well as her highly publicized stops at New York Fashion Week events. All eyes have been on her, dissecting both her fashion choices and her interviews non stop for the past week. 50 Shades fans and the rest of the world have been clamoring to know more about the under-the-radar actress, who just landed back in her hometown after the whirlwind press tour.
For the cross country flight, the 25-year-old donned an oh-so-hip looking leather jacket, striped shirt and a pair of skinnies. The brunette tried to hide her eyes from the cameras with a pair of oversized sunglasses.
The actress is also slated to host Saturday Night Live on February 28.
Meanwhile, Oscar nominee Julianne Moore, who was on the same flight from New York, got caught in Dakota's media melee. The Still Alice star tried to dodge photogs who went crazy for the younger actress, whose film is on track to hit $100 million in the box office.
Both gorgeous gals we'll be doing it up red-carpet style this Sunday at the Oscars. Dakota will be presenting at the 87th Academy Awards and Julianne is nominated for Best Actress for her role in Still Alice.
