Dakota Johnson says Taylor Swift’s ‘existence’ is ‘radical’

Dakota Johnson and Taylor Swift may be very different — one says she sometimes sleeps 14 hours a day (even if she doesn’t mean it literally) and another calls jet lag a choice — but as for As bang queens are, they have no other choice but to support each other. In a new interview with Bustle, Johnson spoke about the singer’s one-time superstardom and called her a “truly radical existence.”

“I really like Lover. It’s a great album, but I think all of her albums are really great,” she said when asked about her favorite Taylor Swift album. “I just find her existence really radical in its truest sense. Not cool or cool, but radical, and I absolutely love it.”

She continued: “She’s an amazing musician. She works very hard.” “She’s really kind to the people who love her. Me too, girl. I support.”

Even though Johnson is a self-proclaimed Swiftie (and partner of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin ), the actress isn’t a fan of musicians branching out into the film industry. However, don’t worry Swifties, Johnson thinks Swift does a great job staying in her lane.

“I mean, I guess she was in Cats, but that’s just because she loves cats,” she said. “I don’t know if this is a bullshit belief or not, but I thought, I’m an actress, I’m a filmmaker and I’m going to follow my path. I will never release album. I would never.” have an art show. If a musician said, ‘I’m also an actor,’ I’d say, ‘No, you’re not.’ [ Laughs .] Like, the only musician who’s also an actor that I like, okay, is Tom Waits. I said, ‘Okay, you can do both.’ I’m very judgmental of actors, but if a musician says, ‘I’m having an art show,’ that’s fine by me [ Laughs .]”

Elsewhere in the interview, Johnson opened up about her sexuality and how her mother, actress Melanie Griffith, made her less embarrassed about the subject growing up.

“I was lucky to grow up with a mother who was very open – sometimes maybe too open – about sex, but it was always the case, no matter what you liked and when you wanted to have sex, you just let me know, and we’ll have birth control,” she recalls. “It was really healthy and made me feel like I was allowed to explore my sexuality on my own, which I think is a gift.”
