Dakota Johnson Is 'Open' to Becoming a Mother One Day: 'Bring It On'
Dakota Johnson isn't opposed to potentially becoming a mother one day.
"I’m so open to that. I’ve gotten to this place where I really want to experience everything that life has to offer. And especially being a woman, I’m like, 'What a magical f-------- thing to do. What a crazy, magical, wild experience.' If that’s meant to happen for me, I’m totally down for it. I’ve been really tripping out recently like, we’re not here for very long. There’s so much to eat up and learn and grow from and experience and feel. That includes all the pain and the suffering and feeling so helpless about the world. Most days I feel like the most useless piece of s---. I’m sitting in this dumb---- chair, talking about this dumb--- movie, and there are people in excruciating catastrophes, and what can I do? I do have that incredible friction in myself. And then I’m like, 'We’re not here for very long' so if I’m meant to be a mother, bring it on," the actress, 34, said in an interview with Bustle.
Dakota Johnson said she would love to be a mom one day.
Elsewhere in the interview, the brunette beauty touched upon how fame can be difficult.
"Sometimes it’s really tough to deal with, but I also have access to incredible people, and I have the ability to impart a little bit of my experience. But I don’t want to be like that all the time. There’s a set time and place to be photographed for what I do. That’s part of my job. But to be photographed when I don’t know I’m being photographed and it’s a private moment? That feels like the most invasive, violating, horrible thing. People say that’s the price you pay when you’re famous, but I don’t believe that’s necessarily true," she noted of being out in public.
Dakota Johnson shared the hard parts of fame.
In order to combat the stress, the Fifty Shades of Grey starlet shared why she's open about mental health.
"Yeah. I’ve explored everything, which is such a gift. I’ve started to be less and less ashamed of it. There’s such a weird stigma on depression and mental health. It’s hard," she said.
Dakota Johnson said she meditates.
"I do TM [Transcendental Meditation]. It is very easy on your nervous system and it just regulates your brain waves. They say that 20 minutes of TM can be like a two-hour nap," she continued.
