The Hollywood rumor mill is spinning at maximum velocity, and Dakota Johnson and Machine Gun Kelly (Colson Baker) are doing very little to slow it down. The 37-year-old Verity leading lady and the 36-year-old musician were spotted stepping out together on Wednesday night, October 14, for an intimate evening in the heart of Los Angeles.
According to fan footage and eyewitness reports published by pop-culture sleuth DeuxMoi, the pair arrived together at Say Yes, a hidden speakeasy and artisanal cocktail lounge nestled in Hollywood. Johnson looked effortlessly chic in a sleek dark leather jacket layered over a white cropped tank and dark trousers, while MGK opted for a low-key, monochromatic black ensemble with his jacket hood pulled over his head.
The “Bloody Valentine” artist appeared in buoyant spirits, warmly nodding to a passerby near the entrance while Johnson followed closely behind.
Word of their blossoming connection comes on the heels of reports that while the pair had known each other casually for years, sparks truly began to fly over the summer. An insider previously revealed that Dakota and MGK:
“hit it off” at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding in July.
“[They] started off as friends and were texting often, but now they’re spending more time together,” the insider noted. “It’s a very new start, but they’re smitten with each other right now.”
The source added that the Grammy-nominated performer is “very into” Johnson and has been raving to close friends about how “amazing” she is.
While Johnson recently poked fun at the endless barrage of tabloid headlines linking her to various “mystery men” across the globe, this ongoing Hollywood connection seems to be gathering real momentum—and fans are watching every step with rapt attention.
