Dakota Johnson Has a Lot to Say About the Nepo Baby Discourse

Dakota Johnson is seen on the streets of Tribeca on February 07, 2024 in New York City. .

When it comes to the ongoing "nepo baby" discourse, actress Dakota Johnson has some thoughts.

On Wednesday, Feb. 7, during an interview on TODAY, Johnson told co-anchor Hoda Kotb that she believes conversations about famous people who have celebrity parents (and therefore have an advantage in Hollywood and the entertainment industry) are "incredibly annoying and boring."

"Like, if you're a journalist, write about something else," she said. "That's just, like, lame."

Johnson is the famous daughter of celebrity actors Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson. Griffith won a Golden Globe in 1989 for her role in Working Girl, while Johnson won a Golden Globe in 1986 for his work in the iconic show Miami Vice.
