Dakota Johnson SNL Victory: Dakota Johnson basked in the glow of her Saturday Night Live success, surrounded by her supportive family at the lively afterparty. The 34-year-old actress, who flawlessly hosted the late-night sketch comedy show, let loose alongside her mom, Melanie Griffith, and stepfather, Antonio Banderas.
For the post-show celebration, the Madame Web star made a stunning entrance in a sheer, floor-length black gown complemented by a cropped black jacket, a chic black purse, and stylish black heels. Her mom, 66, also embraced the all-black theme.
Banderas, 63, injected a pop of color into the mix, pairing a dark blue leather jacket with a navy top and black pants.
Griffith’s presence at the afterparty followed a heartfelt Instagram tribute to her daughter ahead of the SNL appearance. The retired actress shared her pride, calling Johnson a “Comedienne extraordinaire” as she reshared one of the SNL promo videos.
But it wasn’t just the Johnson family making waves at the post-show bash. A-listers Demi Moore and Jimmy Fallon added to the star-studded affair. Fallon, known for his SNL legacy, made several cameos alongside his close friend and the night’s musical guest, Justin Timberlake.
Moore, 61, brought along her adorable dog, nestled in a cross-body bag, adding a touch of whimsy to the festivities. Fallon, 49, sported a sharp gray suit jacket paired with a black v-neck sweater and stylish green pants, marking another successful Saturday night at his former SNL home.
Despite Griffith and Banderas’ separation in 2015, after almost two decades of marriage, they maintain a close bond and steadfastly support their children. Banderas expressed their enduring connection, stating, “Melanie is not my wife anymore, but I think she is my best friend. I love her and will love her until the day I die. She’s my family.”
The former couple shares a daughter, Stella, 27, and Banderas played a significant role in raising Johnson (Melanie’s daughter with her first husband, Don Johnson) and son Alexander Bauer (Melanie’s son with her second husband, Steven Bauer).
Reflecting on his involvement in the children’s lives, Banderas affectionately mentioned, “I was there because I love their mother, and I am taken with their mother, and they were the most important part of what she came with. Very soon they understood that. They called me Paponio, a mixture between Papa and Antonio.”
