Beaming Dakota Johnson has a spring in her step while promoting her new film after sparking romance rumours with Machine Gun Kelly
She’s rumoured to be dating the rapper Machine Gun Kelly, so it’s no surprise that Dakota Johnson had a spring in her step as she stepped out in New York City on Thursday.
The actress, 36, was seen leaving a press junket for Variety while promoting her role in the erotic thriller Verity.
Dakota opted for a stylish checked blazer and jeans while in the midst of her promotional trail.
Earlier this week, pictures emerged that showed Dakota and MGK leaving the same car to head to pal Taylor Swift’s apartment.
The pair spent several hours inside the singer’s apartment before going to a nearby hotel and staying overnight, the outlet also reported.
Taylor was out of town during their meet-up, according to TMZ.

Dakota and MGK reportedly first met at Swift’s recent Madison Square Garden wedding to Travis Kelce. The Daily Mail has reached out to Dakota and MGK’s representatives for comment.
The meet-up comes one month after Dakota was reported to have split from singer Role Model, aka Tucker Pillsbury, after dating for about eight months.
The actress ‘ended their relationship a while ago,’ according to People, having first been photographed dining together on December 29 last year in Los Angeles.
The split may have come as a surprise to fans after it was claimed they were ‘very much on the same page’ and ‘it just felt easy’ between them.
Dakota had even made a flirty appearance on the Harmony singer’s newly released third studio album Chuck Timely & the Hourglass, which debuted at number ten on the US Billboard 200.
In his drunken track Love I You, Tucker is heard telling Dakota: ‘Hey, I think you’re perfect’ before she shoots back, ‘You say that to everyone.’
‘Okay, well, is it working?’ Role Model asks, to which Dakota responds: ‘Yeah, but don’t tell anyone.’
Tucker told Rolling Stone in August that the interlude served as him ‘publicly admitting the relationship’ even though he was hesitant at first: ‘I think keeping those things separate is probably good.’

‘And then one day [producer Mason Stoops] convinced her, and I was just like, ‘Yeah, let’s try it.’ And it was amazing. Her voice was perfect on it,’ the aspiring ‘single girl-dad’ explained to the mag.
‘Obviously, yeah, you know that’s gonna lead to discussions online, but also it made the song really special to me, and what a cool cameo to have… She did it in one try, too. It was very impressive.’
Prior to Role Model, Dakota was in an on-again, off-again relationship for eight years with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, ending for good in June last year.
Machine Gun Kelly was previously in a relationship with actress Megan Fox for four-and-a-half years and the pair welcomed a daughter, Saga, in March of last year.
The musician and Megan, 40, had their baby girl four months after their relationship reportedly ended following claims the actress discovered he had been speaking with other women.
Despite the breakup, a source revealed in late last year Megan has been impressed by ‘how he’s stepped up for both her and the baby,’ fueling whispers that the former fiances could be finding their way back to each other.
In July, Megan used Instagram again to take a savage swipe at her former partners while firing back at a troll in the comments section of one of her lingerie photoshoot posts.
‘This s**t is so unbelievably embarrassing for a 40-year-old mom to be posting. 16-year-old Tumblr s**t,’ the Instagram user commented.
In response to the comment, Megan savagely replied: ‘Which one of my exes is this.’
