Dakota Johnson recalled her first encounter with Justin Timberlake on the set of 'The Social Network.'

"Are you kidding? I was just like 19 and straddling Justin Timberlake and like whipping him in the face with my hair," the 34-year-old actress said in an interview with Vanity Fair.

The brunette babe was asked about what she thought of Timberlake even before their first encounter.

"100 percent had preconceived notions, but he was lovely and kind and really welcoming for a person that was just a stranger," she revealed.

"I think that because this was The Social Network and David Fincher we did this so many times that I'm like, I'm in it. I know it, I know all the lines. It's still there," she said as the moment played out.
