Summary
- Dakota Johnson's recent interview with Jimmy Kimmel was uncomfortable due to her dress mishap.

- Despite the wardrobe malfunction, the chat was entertaining with discussions about movies and Hollywood.
When Dakota Johnson is the guest, expect things to go sideways and off the script. We've seen that time and time again. That continues to hold true following her recent chat with Jimmy Kimmel. Johnson was noticeably uncomfortable during her interview, and it was all because of her dress.
Looking back, fans felt as though both Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert had opposite approaches to such a situation. We're going to reveal how Jimmy Kimmel reacted to the moment, and why he was ripped by fans.
We'll also take a look at what Colbert would've done instead, given his past history in similar situations with guests.
Jimmy Kimmel Urged His Now-Deceased Guest To Get Help While Roasting Him Throughout Their Interview
Jimmy Kimmel couldn't understand why his now-deceased guest agreed to their interview.
Stephen Colbert Offered His Jacket To Guests Struggling With Their Wardrobes, While Jimmy Kimmel Told Dakota Johnson To Power Through
In terms of uncomfortable interviews, this one might rank at the very top for Jimmy Kimmel this year. Kimmel and guest Dakota Johnson discussed some sensitive topics, like a revealing photo that was featured in Johnson's latest project, Daddio. As if that conversation wasn't awkward enough, Dakota was holding on to her dress for dear life, as it looked as though the strap was going to slip off at any point.
So how did Jimmy Kimmel react? He made light of it, while basically going on like nothing happened. Kimmel tells Johnson, "Are you alright? Should I get some scotch tape? It seems to be hanging in alright. You just hold it, it won't be very long." Kimmel then switches subject and discusses the movie, which even gets a laugh out of Dakota for the awkward transition.
In the comments, fans pointed out that Stephen Colbert would've handled the moment differently. The most liked comment wrote, "Have to say, Colbert would've probably offered his jacket."
Fans aren't wrong as years ago, Sarah McDaniel's went through similar circumstances during her chat with Colbert, and the host did in fact offer his jacket. Heck, even James Corden, who doesn't have the greatest reputation, once offered his jacket to Dakota Johnson after she was uncomfortable, showing too much leg in their interview.
Fans Noticed Both Jerry Seinfeld And Bill Maher Nervously Switching Subjects When Discussing Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert And Jimmy Fallon
It seemed like both Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Maher weren't impressed by the work of late night hosts Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert.
Along with Jimmy Kimmel, fans also pointed the finger at Dakota Johnson's stylist, who clearly let the actress down with the wardrobe selection.
Still, despite the moment, it was an entertaining chat. Johnson also discussed being neighbors with Jimmy Kimmel, her new movie and working with Sean Penn. She also guessed who was high on Hollywood Blvd. Certainly not your typical interview... but that's to be expected when Dakota's around.
Stephen Colbert Also Received Praise For Her Handled Anya Taylor-Joy's Recent Fit
The praise for Stephen Colbert continued just a few weeks prior. His guest, Anya Taylor-Joy, was turning heads with her outfit of choice, which was attached at the back by only 12 strings. Still, Colbert kept things classy, and kept the focus on Anya's career, without making mention of her stunning dress.
- Once again, fans appreciated Colbert's awareness and the chemistry between the two:
- "I love how she takes the opportunity at the very end of the clip to thank him for how he's always treated her. It says so much about both of them," one fan wrote about their chemistry.
- "At the end when she goes “will you be my friend? I adore you” … I feel like she represented most of us," another fan writes.
Taylor-Joy discussed her experience in Furiosa, while giving out the highest praise to host Stephen Colbert.
"You were one of my first interviews, and treated me with such kindness and respect. So thank you for that."
It should be noted that Colbert fell victim to Dakota Johnson's antics, taking tequila shots with the actress during their past interview.
