Actor Dakota Johnson revealed that she was pretty much gulping caffeine without realizing it when she was working on the short film Loser Baby, which she directed.

Johnson, 34, told Variety that she discovered the beverage Celsius on the first day of shooting the short film and didn't realize until later it was an energy drink.

She told the media outlet around the time Loser Baby debuted at the International Toronto Film Festival:

"I didn't know that it was like Red Bull. I thought it was like a natural drink."

The Hollywood scion, who is the daughter of Miami Vice actor Don Johnson and Working Girl Oscar nominee Melanie Griffith, recalled thinking:

"I was like, I'm so inspired. I'm awake all night long, and I'm not sleeping, and it was because I was having like two Celsius a day."

She continued:

"I thought it was vitamins. 'Cause when you read 'Celsius' on the back it says B12 and Vitamin A… I didn't realize that I was basically overdosing on caffeine."

Here is the clip from Variety.



Johnson said her on-set costumer told her she was "not well" and broke the news to the actor that the thirst quencher she guzzled like there was no tomorrow was basically like drinking "four Red Bulls a day."

"It was upsetting," she said upon hearing the news, adding:

"Now I know that in dire straits, there’s Celsius and I’m looking for an endorsement, I’m your girl."

"Night shoots, they work really well," she joked.

Fans weighed in on her eye-opening discovery.

While Celsius does offer some healthier ingredients over Red Bull, the new "It" energy drink packs a punch with roughly 200 to 270 mg of caffeine in a 12-oz can, which is two to four times the amount of caffeine found in a cup of Nespresso coffee.

Meanwhile, an 8.4 oz can of Red Bull contains 80 mg of caffeine, which is less than 10 mg of caffeine per ounce compared to Celsius' 16.7 to 22.5 mg.

For those who want to amp up their energy to the max, Celsius HEAT provides a 300 mg dose and ranks among the highest caffeine content in popular energy drinks currently on the market.

Susan Collins Dragged After GOP PAC Boosts Her Campaign In The Wrong Portland

On July 4, 1786, the city of Portland, Maine, was officially founded with its newly-minted name. Almost 60 years later in 1845, Maineiac Francis Pettygrove won a coin toss against Asa Lovejoy and named their soon-to-be incorporated city in Oregon Portland after the largest city in his home state of Maine.

Since then, Portland, Oregon, has swelled to a city of approximately 675,000 people while its namesake boasts a population of just 70,000. In 2026, when people hear Portland, they think of Oregon instead of the original city in Maine.

CNN Just Visited A Struggling MAGA Store—And It Spells Bad News For Trump

CNN correspondent Elle Reeve returned to Whitey Taylor's Trump Town USA in Boones Mill, Virginia, for the first time since visiting in 2023, and her segment shows that business for the Donald Trump-themed shop has collapsed as more MAGA followers break away from the president.

Reeve, in a segment for Anderson Cooper 360, reported that "things aren't what they used to be" for the store. She spoke with Taylor, who revealed that the store, which used to make $12,000 to $15,000 in sales per day now only makes between $1,500 - $2,000 per day. On occasion, Taylor will hit $3,000 in sales if he's lucky.

JD Vance Blasted After Sharing His Absolutely Mind-Numbing Definition Of 'Socialism'

According to Merriam-Webster, socialism broadly refers to economic and political systems centered on collective or government ownership and control of the means of production.

Not exactly a concept requiring a Ph.D. to explain. One would think Vice President JD Vance, a Yale Law School graduate whose party practically uses the word as punctuation, could manage a working definition.
