Dakota Johnson rings in 37th birthday at NYC hotspot with A-list pal Jennifer Lawrence
Live from New York, it’s Dakota Johnson’s 37th birthday dinner!
The actress celebrated the occasion Sunday evening at New York City hotspot Via Carota, on the heels of her “Saturday Night Live” hosting gig.
The “Verity” star smoldered in a black dress with sheer lace panels down the front, in photos obtained exclusively by Page Six.
She paired the sultry ensemble with heels and a leather jacket with fur trim, keeping her hair pulled back.
Johnson accessorized with layered necklaces, a bedazzled bag and a red mani-pedi.
Her bodyguard was later spotted carrying a bouquet of pink and purple flowers, as well as a Valentino shopping bag.
Johnson was joined at the West Village restaurant by A-list pal Jennifer Lawrence and the “Hunger Games” star’s husband, Cooke Maroney.
Lawrence, 36, stunned in a white tee, a patterned skirt, animal-print slides and a sheer black cardigan.
Her partner, 42, cut a similarly casual figure in an unbuttoned dress shirt and slacks.
While Taylor Swift didn’t attend the Italian eatery, the Grammy winner did crash her friend’s “SNL” monologue Saturday.
The pop star, 34, appeared onstage in a plaid dress after Johnson shouted out her “really great” and “really supportive” friends.
“Ladies and gentlemen, my literal therapist,” the “Fifty Shades of Grey” star quipped while introducing Swift.
The singer joked, “I’m not your therapist, actually. You just show up at my house once a week with an empty bottle of wine and ask me if I want some.”
Later in the evening, Swift was photographed presenting Johnson with a blue birthday cake.
The pair have been friends for a decade, with Johnson making headlines last month for co-starring with Colin Farrell in Swift’s “Patient Zero” music video.
She called the experience “the most fun thing on the planet” in a September red carpet interview, gushing, “We’ve known each other for a long time and we respect each other’s creative minds.”
