Dakota Johnson narrowly avoids wardrobe malfunction with daring outfit choice
Dakota Johnson nearly had a wardrobe malfunction during a late-night TV appearance.
On Monday's episode of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," Johnson — who was wearing a black mini-dress with a plunging neckline — instantly regretted her decision.
"Oh God," said Johnson, who was promoting her new film, "Materialists." "This is the wrong outfit."
"No, no. I think it's perfect, you look great," Fallon said. "Just don't move."
"My eyes are up here," she joked.
A dazed and confused Fallon playfully looked up to the ceiling and said, "I don't know what to do. I'm confused."
After the TV host redirected the conversation, Johnson was still concerned about the possible malfunction.
"Tell me if there's a problem," she said.
"Right now, there's not a problem," Fallon quipped. "There's almost a problem, but not quite — it's just… everything is going according to plan."
"Does anyone have like, a blanket I could wear?" Johnson asked.
Fallon handed Johnson a tissue that she placed in her cleavage.
"That's perfect. No one will even know the difference!" said Fallon. "You look great!"
One year ago, the actress suffered another wardrobe malfunction while appearing on "Jimmy Kimmel Live."
"Dakota, your dress just came unhooked," Kimmel said to Johnson, who tried to maintain her poise as she clutched the detached metal strap of her black dress. "Should I get some scotch tape?" Kimmel inquired.
"My dress just - it just fell off," Johnson said, astounded, but with a smile on her face.
"It seems to be hanging in all right?" Kimmel countered.
"Well, I'll just hold it," Johnson said, continuing the conversation in stride.
"Just hold the important part," Kimmel joked.
Johnson cheekily placed her hands on her chest, much to the amusement of the audience. "The movie is really good," she noted.

Dakota Johnson Flaunts Sheer Revenge Dress After Breakup With Chris Martin
is seemingly embracing her single era with a revenge dress after an alleged breakup with fiancé . On Thursday, the actor stepped out in New York City wearing a show-stopping sheer dress, a day after her supposed split from the Coldplay frontman made headlines. The two reportedly put an end to their on-and-off relationship, which previously culminated in an engagement in 2017. Her ensemble to take on the streets of NYC posed as the perfect revenge dress after the breakup rumors went viral. Dakota Johnson is busy promoting her upcoming romantic comedy 'Materialists,' and her alleged breakup with Chris Martin won't stop her from carrying on with her professional duties. On Thursday, June 5, the actor turned heads with her revenge dress during an outing in NYC. Photos captured her leaving the Greenwich Hotel in Tribeca in a sheer, jaw-dropping dress. Johnson wore a long-sleeve black see-through midi dress for the day. According to Page Six's report, the outfit featured a sheer bodysuit and a tulle midi skirt from Nensi Dojaka. She paired her stunning piece with black sunglasses, a brown suede Gucci shoulder bag, and matching pumps. The 'Materialists' star was all smiles as she exited the venue, appearing to be in good spirits a day after her alleged split from the Coldplay frontman made news. A source exclusively revealed that Johnson and Martin had called it quits eight years after their on-and-off relationship. The insider shared that their breakup 'feels final' this time around, hinting that it may be over for good between the pair. Meanwhile, as news about their breakup went viral, another source pitched in to explain what went wrong in their relationship. The insider told The U.S. Sun that the two ended their relationship because of their age and conversation around having children. Johnson expressed her desire to have kids, while Martin is 'kind of done with that part of his life,' the source claimed. The two reportedly tried sorting through their issues but could not overcome their age gap. The insider also claimed that they love each other, but 'things were just never lining up for them.' As of this writing, neither party has addressed the split. Originally reported by Varsha Narayanan on RealityTea.

Another Year of Romance, with a Dark Twist, Circana BookScan Reports
CHICAGO, IL, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The market for romance books has been growing since 2021 and remains hot, according to Circana, LLC. In the U.S., year-to-date print sales for romance books are up 24%, versus the same period last year. The volume for romance books has more than doubled compared to four years ago, with 51 million units sold in the past 12 months. Circana BookScan data reveals that romance stands out among the adult fiction subjects showing the most growth in 2025. In fact, romance is the leading growth category for the total print book market thus far in 2025. Fastest growing romance subjects include romantasy and sports romance, each experiencing triple-digit growth, as well as suspense romance and contemporary romance. Romance readers are particularly desirable for the book industry. According to the latest findings from Circana's Future of™ Books study, 26% of romance book buyers report that they are reading 'much more' compared to a year ago – a behavior that is contributing to the growth for romance book sales. While Rebecca Yarros' latest release Onyx Storm – the fastest selling adult title in its opening week, in the 20-year history of BookScan – is a key factor in the romance sales growth, a lot of activity is happening beyond one major author. Even when excluding Yarros from the romance market, the category is still showing double-digit growth. H.D. Carlton, Rina Kent, and Elsie Silver are among the top growing romance authors this year. One key similarity among them is that their stories explore dark romance, including paranormal and anti-hero themes. A desire for dark subjects is surfacing within the romance book market. This trend aligns with other growing segments in adult fiction including psychological thrillers (+29%), dark fantasy (+23%), and horror (+13%). 'This year, I am watching a shift away from rosier romance subjects like romantic comedy and new adult romance in favor of authors and titles with darker themes,' said Brenna Connor, U.S. books industry analyst at Circana. 'Combined with the growth in other more intense fiction subjects like horror and dystopian, a new trend has emerged that's marked by darker escapist themes. These subject matters provide an outlet for readers to safely explore negative emotions such as sadness, anger, or anxiety – allowing them to feel connected and perhaps even comforted. I expect to see continued interest in these darker subjects in the year ahead.'

As LIV arrives in Virginia, Bryson DeChambeau is its entertainer-in-chief
Bryson DeChambeau's relentless devotion to his craft has become the stuff of legend among peers, who describe the LIV Golf star's work habits as near maniacal. Even when not on the range, the self-proclaimed perfection seeker often is assessing how he can elevate his practice regimen. That attention to preparation and execution has contributed to DeChambeau's two U.S. Open titles, including last year at Pinehurst. It hasn't, however, interfered with another responsibility DeChambeau embraces with similar gusto. As much as winning occupies a wide berth in his headspace, so, too, does being a showman. Forays into that realm have transformed the renegade from the PGA Tour, where he had been a divisive figure, into a social media sensation, with millions of followers on TikTok and Instagram. His YouTube channel has north of 2 million subscribers. DeChambeau's visibility on such platforms is virtually unmatched in the sport. 'Did I ever think it would get this big?' he said during a pretournament news conference ahead of this week's LIV event at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Virginia. 'I had no clue. I really had no idea. Is it now an incredible responsibility? Yes, and I understand that. I want to continue to entertain my fans and continue to play the great game of golf that we all love at the highest level. 'I want to compete, and I want to entertain. Those are the two things I love doing, and it's quite an honor.' Count the president of the United States among his admirers. Earlier this week, DeChambeau visited the White House and, at the urging of President Donald Trump, hit balls on the South Lawn, turning the swath of property into a makeshift par-3. A video of the moment posted by an official White House account on X has been viewed close to 900,000 times. Another viral moment came when DeChambeau traveled to Utah, where he posted to his YouTube channel a video with the tongue-in-cheek title, 'Day in the life of a recreational golfer …' Highlights included flying in a helicopter to a mountain range to hit balls and doing the same at the Bonneville Salt Flats several hours west of Provo. The 63-second clip has generated almost 1 million views. One of DeChambeau's most viewed TikTok videos came in November, five months after outlasting Rory McIlroy by one stroke at the U.S. Open. In the post, which has garnered 1.5 million likes, DeChambeau used a wedge to hit over the roof of his home onto a green in his backyard, needing 134 swings before collecting an ace that triggered a cap-tossing celebratory sprint to retrieve the ball. 'I've always seen this side of him, this playful, fun side, intelligent side, interesting side of him,' said Phil Mickelson, the six-time major champion who departed the PGA Tour for LIV three years ago. 'Since he has really dove into the YouTube space, now everybody gets to see it because he's able to showcase that and not have it filtered by a middle person. … It's been remarkable to see the evolution of that and the way the public has responded to him, because he's always been like that. It just hasn't been able to get noticed, I guess, properly.' Still, the mere mention of DeChambeau can roil PGA Tour loyalists. Some have cast him as a turncoat since he bailed for the Saudi-financed circuit that seeks to disrupt traditional golf norms with 54-hole tournaments in which there are no cuts and team as well as individual competitions. DeChambeau sparked more controversy at this year's Masters after telling reporters that McIlroy, who won his first green jacket to complete a career grand slam, did not speak with him while they played together during the closing round. McIlroy's sports psychologist, the famed Bob Rotella, indicated during a subsequent radio interview with the BBC that the decision not to engage with DeChambeau was strategic and not intended as a personal slight. Also in the aftermath, Padraig Harrington, a three-time major winner, and analyst Brandel Chamblee were critical of DeChambeau. None of that has mattered to DeChambeau's legion of fans who clamor for his autograph at tournaments. DeChambeau reciprocates by signing and posing for pictures before and after each round. He said he plans more of the same this week while also getting his game and mind right for next week's U.S. Open at Oakmont, among the most demanding venues that have hosted the tournament. DeChambeau is aiming to become the first back-to-back winner at the U.S. Open since Brooks Koepka, also on the LIV tour, did so in 2017 and 2018. 'I feel like Bryson is somebody that changes and tries new things every time, which I feel like there's nothing wrong with that,' said Joaquín Niemann, who leads the individual LIV standings, with DeChambeau second. 'You can learn a lot from new experiences. Obviously, he's different. He's way different than me, way different than anybody. The way he approaches the game is completely different, which I feel like is unique, and in his way, it works for him.'
