I have no shame: Dakota Johnson

Actress-model Dakota Johnson, who is part of the screen adaptation of British author E.L. James' erotic novel "Fifty Shades of Grey", says she did not feel shy while shooting the steamy scenes in the film.

The 24-year-old, who will feature on the front page of Elle's latest issue, says her interest in the project is beyond the sexual intimacy between her character Anastasia Steele and Jamie Dornan's Christian Grey, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I don't have any problem doing anything. The secret is I have no shame," Johnson said.

"Reading the book, I found myself more interested in the ways they were breaking each other down emotionally than the sex scenes. I think there's a part of a woman that wants to be the thing that breaks a man down," she added.

In the cover photo, Johnson can be seen donning an embellished cotton-blend coat with her lace sheer thigh-highs peeking out, and in another one she is showing some skin in a strapless brassiere top and a wool skirt.
