Jimmy Fallon's on a mission to prove the leads of Fifty Shades of Grey are more charismatic than an unpeeled carrot and a paper bag, respectively, and so far, he's done a not-bad job.
Following Jamie Dornan and his many accents, Dakota Johnson joined Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, where she read some thoroughly un-sexy phrases in her most suggestive, Ana-post-virginity-loss voice. Example: "Excuse me, sir, but this strawberry-flavored ChapStick just fell out of your fanny pack."
TBH, Jimmy didn't stand a chance against Johnson's expert hair flip and not-quite-so-expert winking. Watch the fun and games below.
