Pedro Pascal recently gave a wild little suggestion to his Materialists co-star Dakota Johnson on how to make money, which left her more confused than intrigued. Speaking to Elle UK for their fun dating dilemmas segment, the actor, who is stepping into the role of a matchmaker, answered some questions sent by fans. When one concern about OnlyFans came up, she instantly recalled how Pascal asked her to create her own account, but for a very specific kind of content, just for her feet.

The Fifty Shades of Grey star tried to give some relationship advice to a fan who was worried because her boyfriend was following OnlyFans models on Instagram. This person wasn’t sure if she should keep dating him or just end things. “I don’t know anything,” Dakota said, giving up. She continued, “OnlyFans is the place where people go to watch people do weird things?” she asked with a question mark, and then added, “Are OnlyFans models hot? Are they different from regular models?” She admitted she doesn’t know much about the platform and sounded puzzled while sharing how the Last of Us star asked her to earn money on the platform just by wiggling her toes. “Pedro Pascal told me that I should have an OnlyFans. That I could just, like, wiggle my toe and I’d make money.” And then, sounding halfway between amused and genuinely considering it, she asked, “Should I do that?”
Dakota was honest that she didn’t really understand the platform, but at the same time, she was also curious. “I feel like I would look at OnlyFans models on Instagram if I knew how to do that,” she said. “It sounds interesting. Sounds intriguing.” While we don’t know how seriously Dakota is considering this, but some celebrities like Jessie Cave, Cardi B, Bella Thorne, and Lily Allen have all tried this platform at some point. The Persuasion actor, on the other hand, has a packed schedule. After her Madame Web failed, the actor is making a comeback with Celine Song’s directorial Materialists, also starring Chris Evans. The movie rolls out on June 13. She’s also starring in Verity, another Colleen Hoover project featuring Josh Hartnett and Anne Hathaway.
Earlier, during their joint interview with Elle UK, Pedro brought up the first time they met, something he remembers clearly. But Dakota seemed doubtful. Recalling how their friendship started, Pascal described it in a very dramatic Hollywood style, it was at an HBO party after the 2014 Golden Globes. She was alone, probably didn’t get a plus-one, and he and Sarah Paulson looked after her. “We banded together,” Pedro said. “We looked after you.”
But the actor looked unconvinced with the story she heard that sounded like a first-time maybe, and said, “That’s so crazy that I don’t remember meeting you there. It feels like something substantial happened to me that night, and I’m blocking it out.” Later, Pedro reminded her that they ran into each other again on the Met Gala red carpet, but that she wasn’t as warm. “You weren’t mean,” he told her, “but I had a moment of feeling a little stupid because it was like, ‘Oh, she doesn’t remember me.’” But Dakota came up with an explanation, adding that the event always makes her feel like she’s trapped in The Twilight Zone. “I don’t feel I connect with any human beings in a real way. It’s like going into some sort of vortex.” She even joked, “This is maybe the 37th time Pedro makes me feel like an absolute piece of s— for not remembering him.”
