Moms are known for embarrassing their kids. But if you’re Dakota Johnson and your mom is famous actress Melanie Griffith, the embarrassment level goes up when she introduces you to the President of the United States.
While talking about some of her past movie roles, like The Social Network from 2010, Dakota shared with Vanity Fair how she felt a bit embarrassed during her first meeting with Barack Obama, all because of her mom.
“One time, I was with my mom, and we were meeting Barack Obama, which was a big deal,” Dakota recalled. “He was talking to her, and she said, ‘Oh, Mr. President, this is my daughter. She just did a movie. She’s an actress too. She was in The Social Network.’”
But instead of stopping there, her mom added an embarrassing detail, telling the former president, “She’s in her underwear.” In the movie, Dakota plays a college student who has a fling with Justin Timberlake’s character, Sean Parker, and in one scene, she wears an off-the-shoulder Stanford sweatshirt and bright red underwear.
About the experience, Dakota joked, “And I died. I died inside.”
In the same video, she talked about her thoughts before working with Justin Timberlake on The Social Network. “Are you kidding? I was just 19 and straddling Justin Timberlake and whipping him in the face with my hair,” Dakota said when asked if she had any ideas about acting with the former boy band member. “I definitely had some preconceived notions, but he was really nice and welcoming, especially since I was just a stranger.”
Fiesty Toddler Doesn’t Like Her Father Talking Back – Her Response Is Hilarious
We meet four-year-old Emma in a charming suburban neighborhood. Emma is a lively and intelligent youngster who loves her father, David. Emma, on the other hand, has a strong sense of self and enjoys speaking her mind, particularly when things don’t go her way.
In a lighthearted game of hide-and-seek one bright afternoon, Emma is being teased by David. Emma takes offense at his jest about her hiding place and resolves to flip the joke back on him. She gives her dad a playful smile and invites him to play a new game called “talking back.”
Every time David makes fun of her or answers in a humorous way in this new game, Emma swiftly responds with her own take on “talking back.” David finds it cutesy and funny at first, but when Emma starts to respond with more sass and intelligence, he starts to think he might have found his match.
Emma’s “talking back” intensifies over the day into a string of surprising and humorous comebacks that make David fight to keep his cool. Emma enjoys outwitting her father, whether it be by making up her own hilarious sentences or by mimicking his tone.
David develops a greater appreciation for Emma’s fierce personality as the game progresses, as well as a better knowledge of her developing independence and inventiveness. David welcomes the happiness of this special bonding experience even though it can be difficult to keep up with his quick-witted kid.
Emma’s boisterous activities have reinforced the bond between father and daughter, who are both weary from laughing by the end of the day. Knowing that there’s never a dull moment when Emma is around, David is amazed by his feisty toddler’s amazing personality as they get ready for bed.
