Dakota Johnson slammed after controversial SNL parody

by

Fifty Shades of Grey star Dakota Johnson hasn't had the best week, has she?

After getting caught up in a mortifying mum/ daughter spat on the red carpet in front of millions of viewers, the actress now faces criticism for her role in a recent Saturday Night Live skit.

The actress, who was hosting the long-running comedy show this week, took part in a parody which referenced ISIS in a move that sent social media into overdrive.

Calling out both the show and the actress on their poor taste, members of the public tweeted their dismay at the show's handling of such a sensitive subject, saying: "When you have loved ones being slaughtered by ISIS, the #SNL skit doesn't seem so funny. Absolutely disgusting @nbcsnl"

According to reports, the controversial skit was intended to be a parody of a Toyota Camry commercial, however that justification has done little to appease those outraged by the performance.

We wonder how Dakota will deal with this one.
