This time last year Dakota Johnson was still virtual unknown in the celebrity world but now it looks like she's made up for all of that lost time. The 50 Shades of Grey star was spotted strolling with her new A-list friend, British model Karen Elson, while the two were out and about in Los Angeles on Friday afternoon.

According to the Daily Mail, the two good friends were spotted heading for a late lunch together at chic French restaurant La Poubelle. The site says that both women looked relaxed during their lunch date together, with Johnson opting for a long coat, a neck and suede boots even though the temperature outside was barely 70 degrees.

Johnson has been mingling with more Hollywood A-list friends ever since she starred in this year's smash blockbuster hit, 50 Shades of Grey, and more recently, Black Mass with Johnny Depp. The young actress revealed that working with the Hollywood legend left her with "shivers."

According to BT News on Wednesday, Jonhson said that the notoriously private Johnny Depp left her shaking in her boots for his role as James "Whitey" Bulger in their new film Black Mass.

Explaining Depp's likeness to his on-screen character, Johnson said, "It gives you shivers. I had done so much research on him and on these people that the photos that you see of Jimmy Bulger--it's uncanny, the resemblance. So it was wild."
