Dakota Johnson explained why her time in The office It wasn’t the dream job I had been waiting for.

Starring people like Steve CarellJohn Krasinski and Rainn WilsonThe hit NBC show premiered in 2005 and aired for 14 seasons, although it wasn’t until the final episode that Dakota was asked to make her brief cameo.
Despite being a huge fan of the show at the time, Dakota candidly revealed during a recent appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers that his time at Dunder Mifflin was quite miserable.
“Honestly, that was the worst moment of my life,” she told the host, before explaining how the guest role came about.
“I loved that show,” he said. “They said to me, ‘Do you want to be in the series finale?'”
Dakota recalled that she had enthusiastically accepted the offer thinking she would “show up like half a day” and have a fun time. However, it ended up being a lot more work than she expected.
“I was there for two weeks,” he said, “and I’m barely in the fucking program.”
Aside from her limited screen time, Dakota also recalled that the vibes on set were also very awkward, revealing that some of the cast members weren’t even talking to each other at this point in the show.
“There was a strange dynamic that had been going on for the last 10 years. Some people didn’t speak to each other,” he recalls, without naming names.
“And I walk in like, ‘I’m so excited to be here!’ And no one wanted to talk to me. Nobody gave a damn,” he added. “I was like in the background of all these scenes, faxing things.”
In an attempt to make her feel better, Seth, who also appeared briefly in the final episode of The office – chimed in to praise his faxing skills, describing it as “one of the most credible faxes I’ve ever seen.”

In another interview with The officialalso recalled her viral interview with Ellen DeGeneres in 2019, where she exposed the host for apparently lying about not receiving an invitation to her 30th birthday party by saying on air, “That’s not the truth, Ellen.”
Of the infamous exchange, he said: “It’s going to haunt me.”
It’s still real, Dakota.
