Dakota Johnson had bizarre asparagus murder dream about Glastonbury headliner

Dakota Johnson had bizarre asparagus murder dream about Glastonbury headliner

Metroa day ago

Dakota Johnson has confessed she had a really bizarre dream about one particular frontman involving asparagus and murder.
She revealed a Glastonbury headliner had recently haunted her dreams while on Amy Poehler's Good Hang podcast.
Surprisingly, it wasn't her (reportedly ex) boyfriend and five time Pyramid Stage pro Chris Martin — instead it was a veggie-morphing nightmare about Matty Healy.
'I actually had a dream the other night,' the Madame Web star laughed. 'Matty Healy from The 1975 was in my dream and he was murdering people, and he was Matty Healy as himself.'
We're not sure why the son of Denise Welch was on a killing spree, or who exactly he was enacting his fatal revenge on.
Dakota, 35, revealed this wasn't even the weirdest part of the dream as the Somebody Else singer had a really handy trick for avoiding capture.
'When the people were looking for him—they were cops maybe, he would turn into a piece of asparagus.'
To this, Amy burst out laughing and joked 'so people just run past him?' prompting a fine piece of acting from Dakota as she pretended to be an asparagus.
Well, that's certainly one stage antic we've not seen from him so far but you never know when it comes to Matty, 36.
The 1975 frontman — who famously dated Taylor Swift in 2023 — wasn't the only one becoming one of your five-a-day in Dakota's mind.
'I saw these two poles and a bed and I was like, 'Matty?'' the Fifty Shades of Grey icon said. 'The sheets came down and it was him as an asparagus and Angelina Jolie as an asparagus.
'They were getting married, and they left in a helicopter together as asparagai. [sic]'
Congratulations are in order then it seems for these asparagus-ified celebrities.
'That is such a weird dream,' responded Amy. 'You might be getting too much sleep.'
Apparently Chris, 48, was incredibly supportive of this strange vegetable superpower and said the whole thing would make a good film plot.
The couple, who had been together for nearly eight years, have gone their separate ways as reported by an insider to People Magazine.
This mirrors intense speculation that they had broken up last year, but they swiftly squashed the rumors — neither have spoken about this split so far.
Despite this, the Yellow hitmaker gave Dakota a shout out at his June 1 show in California, telling the crowd to 'Be kind to yourself, be kind to each other'.
He then added 'Don't forget to see Materialists!' which is the name of Dakota's upcoming film. More Trending
Coldplay won't be taking to the Pyramid Stage this year at Glastonbury… unless they're Patchwork or another TBA (now there's a thought).
However, The 1975 are set to headline on Friday night and while he's not going around turning into a big green vegetable, Matty's problematic behaviour has raised some eyebrows.
Here's hoping Worthy Farm goes off without any controversial remarks from the About You singer — and without any asparagus.

Dua Lipa finally confirms engagement to Callum Turner

It's been half a year since Dua Lipa, 29, sparked engagement speculation after flashing a chunky ring over Christmas— and it's finally official. The Levitating hitmaker revealed that she is engaged to her boyfriend Callum Turner after he proposed with a very special ring. An Instagram photo dump first sparked rumours as a sparkling diamond could be seen on that finger, but Dua stayed silent. Months after teasing fans, she confirmed in an interview with British Vogue that she and Callum, 35, are set to tie the knot. 'Yeah, we're engaged,' last year's Glastonbury headliner cooly shared. 'It's very exciting. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don't know, be best friends forever – it's a really special feeling.' Dua revealed that Callum popped the question with a custom-made ring, which he had consulted with her sister Rina over. 'I'm obsessed with it,' she continued. 'It's so me. It's nice to know the person that you're going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well.' The happy couple began dating in January 2024 and made their relationship Instagram official in July. Dua was first spotted out with the Fantastic Beasts actor in March, with the pair grabbing a spot of dinner on date night in London. The Houdini icon had seen him before they began dating, having bumped into each other at The River Cafe and been introduced by the co-founder and Table 4 podcast host Ruth Rogers. At this point, Callum was simply 'that really hot guy' from the cafe, but a year later, their paths crossed once more, and she took the plunge. Book fanatic Dua bonded with the actor over the fact they were both reading the same novel — a real compatibility test. Despite this meet-cute, the duo are not rushing down the aisle as between Callum's film shoots and Dua's tour there is little time to plan. 'We're just enjoying this period,' she explained. 'I've never been someone who's really thought about a wedding, or dreamt about what kind of bride I would be. All of a sudden I'm like: 'Oh, what would I wear?'' We're sure whatever Dua chooses to wear will be a show-stopper. When the rumours of their engagement began last year, a source told The Sun: 'They are engaged and couldn't be happier. 'Dua has had one of the best years of her career professionally, and this is the cherry on the cake. Callum is such a solid support for Dua, and they make a wonderful couple.' Last year was certainly a big one for the Future Nostalgia icon as she headlined Glastonbury alongside Coldplay and Sza. Her set was praised by festival goers, filled with big hits, dance numbers, and a guest appearance from Tame Impala. However, it wasn't just on stage she was making an impact as Dua went viral for an interaction with a man who sang to her backstage. More Trending Dua was enjoying some downtime wandering around the 15000-acre site when a fan armed with a ukulele stopped her. The Camden busker introduced himself, and said: 'I want to play you 30 seconds of my song and if you like it, I just want your reaction.' Glancing at the camera, Dua agreed with the busker launching into exactly 30 seconds of his ukulele song before she cut him off and said, 'Well done mate. So good, so good.' As she attempted to escape, the guy asked for a hug — which Dua politely obliged before high-tailing it out of there and making a beeline for Callum. Got a story?

Get ready for Glastonbury 2025: 11 essentials to pack, plan and download

If you're one of the 140,000 music fans who are about to get stuck into five days of partying in the Somerset fields of fun; congratulations for managing to bag a much-coveted ticket. An absolutely golden weekend lies ahead of you (well, once the tent has been pitched). But while it's probably as far removed from a Scouts' camping trip as you can get, it's still advisable to follow their old mantra – even for a slightly more debauched countryside visit – and be prepared. With mere weeks to go, here's everything you should plan, download and pack to make it a truly incredible experience … 1 SunscreenWill it be a sunny Glasto this year? That, unfortunately, is up to the weather gods. So while you'll need to cover yourself just in case by bringing wellies and a poncho (which can also be fashioned as a make-shift ground cover to sit on), don't skimp on a bottle of factor 50 as well. Guess what's worse than being soaking and trudging round in the mud? Being sunburnt and trudging round in the mud. Expect all of the weather at some point over the festival, and prevent your face from being that shiny red moon beaming out from every single photo taken while you're there. 2 EarplugsIs there such a thing as too much music? Perhaps, especially if you're trying to take a little disco nap in the afternoon. Also, never underestimate the amount of noise 50,000 people in a field separated only by tent canvas make. Bring some earplugs (and an eye mask) in the hope that a tactical 40 winks will power you all the way through to Olivia Rodrigo on Sunday night. 3 Download the Official Glastonbury app, powered by VodafoneBefore you set off, download the Official Glastonbury 2025 app, powered by Vodafone, to help you plan your ultimate festival experience; as if Glastonbury had been tailored for you alone. With the latest full lineup, timings and an A-Z of artists (including the super-handy Now and Next widget), input your must-see shows to create your own personal lineup, and the app will ping you a reminder before each musical moment takes place. 4 Mates meeting mapThe Official Glastonbury app, powered by Vodafone, also has a life-saving fully interactive festival site map where you can customise pins, as well as being able to share meeting point pins with friends. Set it up and share with your pals on your trip down to the farm, and never get separated from the pack after a toilet break again! 5 SnacksWhile there's a veritable buffet of great food always on offer across the site – and all the food and merch stalls are handily pinpointed on the official app's map – ask yourself, can you really be arsed to queue up for 30 minutes for a burrito while you're already having to navigate the programming clash of the Ezra Collective and Greentea Peng? Obviously, don't skip your meals (mid-afternoon is always the best time to hit the street food stalls, FYI) but the power of an energy boosting snack can't be denied, so bring bananas, apples, dried fruit and nuts, cereal bars and crisps to munch on. 6 Tent topperPicture the scene: it's 4am and you're ready to crash. As you trek up behind the Park stage to the camping area, it's a brain twister: you're faced with a sea of tents that to your tired eyes look identical. To avoid playing a pre-dawn game of Where's Wally (the tent version), bring a marker to fly up from the top of your camping spot. A flag, portable LED lighting, solar-powered light or even a comedy windsock should help it to stand out from the pack, saving you valuable lost minutes – hours even – in the process. Don't forget to double up by customising a pin on the interactive festival map to help you locate yours, or for that matter, on Monday morning, your car (if you've driven there). 7 Battery packYou know that person who always begs to borrow your battery pack as their phone's about to die? Don't be that person. Instead buy a fully charged battery pack from Vodafone at the festival – pre-order is available – then exchange it for another fully charged one free once a day. That way you'll be sure to have enough power to capture all your favourite moments. 8 ElectrolytesCome on, you know by now you need to drink loads of water when out in the elements for a few days. This year, hack your water and help rehydrate and replenish everything that was shaken off on the dancefloor at San Remo the night before. Electrolytes, the tried-and-tested old raver favourites, come in sachets, effervescent tablets or, failing that, natural coconut water works as well. 9 Socks (and blister pads)With 365 hectares (900 acres) to explore, your little tootsies are going to be humming by the end of the day. If it's welly weather, the boots can rub, so make sure to bring thick socks, blister pads, and – if you're extra bougie – a couple of foot masks to stick on overnight to put more pep in your step the next day. For a bit of extra fun, step count tracking has been added to the Official Glastonbury app from Vodafone – and will be available in the Glastonbury Highlights post-festival wrap. You can then share, to see which of your friends really has covered the ground (or done the most dancing). 10 Crossbody bagIt's fashion, but it's … also functional? The sartorial stars have aligned and the humble bumbag is back in business, albeit given a glow-up as a crossbody bag. Once again, they'll be ubiquitous all over festival season, with just enough room for your phone, battery pack and any other essential items needed for fun, but gloriously all hands-free. 11 Socials Bragging rights on socials? It's probably the one time of the year everyone will allow it. So once you've packed up your tent (remember: leave no trace) and trundled off to Castle Cary train station, it's time to unleash the content. The Glastonbury app will generate Your Glastonbury Highlights that can easily be shared online for you and all your new festival friends to get misty-eyed over, and to start planning the 2026 Glasto reunion.

The real reason Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin split as insider reveals what finally made her walk away

Dakota Johnson was ready to walk down the aisle — but Chris Martin wasn't, and it cost them their relationship. The nepo baby actress, 35, and the Coldplay frontman, 48, began dating in 2017, got engaged years later, and on June 4, it was revealed they had quietly called it quits. A source told 'Their relationship has been over for a long time, they just haven't been able to figure out how to make it official.' As fans spiraled over the A-list breakup, another insider revealed the real reason behind the split on Tuesday: Martin's cold feet. 'She was sick of him dragging his feet on setting a date for the wedding,' a source told Page Six. The news comes just days after Martin sparked speculation with a cryptic shout-out to Dakota at Coldplay's Las Vegas show on Friday. 'Thank you so much everybody,' the Paradise singer said to the sold-out crowd at Allegiant Stadium, before unexpectedly referencing Johnson's latest film. 'Be kind to yourself, be kind to each other,' he admonished before adding, 'Don't forget to see Materialists! We love you!' in video shared by Deuxmoi. While the person who shot the video seemed to think the promotion meant 'THEYRE NOT BROKEN UP,' others disagreed. 'I can totally seeing him supporting her even after the break up,' another stated. 'You can breakup with someone and still be supportive. Look at him and GP,' said one fan, referring to the hitmaker's successful relationship with ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow. 'I mean, didn't he help pioneer conscious uncoupling?' asked a fan, referring to the way Martin and Paltrow formally parted in 2014, although their divorce was not finalized until two years later. Reps for the pair have not officially confirmed their split. Last week, source said the 50 Shades of Grey star 'held a flame for them to be together because she loved him so much and loved his kids so much.' The insider continued: 'Dakota is devastated that she isn't going to be around his kids as much anymore, but wants them to know that she is always there for them.' They added that there is a chance the pair may reconcile but 'right now, being separated will do wonders if they were to have any type of future together.' DailyMail first reported trouble between the pair in August 2024 but a rep later confirmed they were still together. The pair had a brief rumored split in 2019 which was alleged to be over Martin pushing for them to have children, but they quickly got back together. Martin famously split from Paltrow the mother of his two children Apple, 21, and Moses, 19, in March 2014 after ten years of marriage. The then-Hollywood power couple described their separation at the time as a 'conscious uncoupling' and had their divorce finalized in July 2016. Martin was reported to be in an on-and-off relationship with actress Annabelle Wallis before they split in August 2017. He was first seen with Dakota at a sushi restaurant in Los Angeles in October 2017 when they were reported to be 'cozy, laughing and affectionate'. Dakota, the daughter of Don Johnson, 75, and Melanie Griffith, 68, was spotted a month later at a Coldplay concert in Buenos Aires, Argentina, leading to fans posing social media pictures of her enjoying the show. The couple were seen out on more dates around Los Angeles in early 2018. But it was nearly a year later that they made their first openly public appearance together at Stella McCartney's Autumn 2018 Collection show in LA. Dakota appeared to confirm her relationship with Martin in an interview with Tatler in September 2018 when she said: 'I'm not going to talk about it, but I am very happy.' The following November, she is said to have met Paltrow, her new husband Brad Falchuk, and Martin's children at a Thanksgiving dinner A source told PEOPLE at the time: 'They're a total modern family and had a great time celebrating together.' The couple were spotted again with Paltrow and Falchuk on the beach in the Hamptons, New York, in August 2019. Paltrow opened up about her ex-husband's relationship with Dakota in a 2020 interview with Harper's Bazaar, describing how the actress had become part of her family. She said: 'I love her. I can see how it would seem weird because it's sort of unconventional. But I think, in this case, just having passed through it iteratively, I just adore her.' Johnson gushed over Martin's children in a 2024 interview, saying: 'I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart.'
