Actress Dakota Johnson has gained a lot if attention since taking on the famous role of Anastasia Steele from E. L. James' erotic "Fifty Shades of Grey" novel which is in the current process of being adapted into a film.

However, the new brunette beauty admitted that she decided to take on the role because she had no problem being the object of sex, among other things.

According to E! News, in a interview with Elle magazine, the 24-year-old not only graced the cover of the March issue but she shared some interesting details about herself. She explained, "I don't have any problem doing anything. The secret is I have no shame."

Johnson also revealed what grabbed her attention about the popular novel. She 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."

The publication's Editor-in-Chief Robbie Myers said, "At Elle, we love to feature women who are taking risks and putting themselves out there."

Myers added, "Dakota was really open and candid in her interview and has a great mix of confidence, humility and humor."

While Dakota Johnson's Elle issue is set to hit newsstands on February 18th, her highly anticipated "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie will not hit theaters until February 13, 2015.
