Don Johnson says daughter Dakota Johnson used to draw penises on his papers

Don Johnson and Jimmy Kimmel they are no strangers to silly pranks from their children.

Thursday, November 7, the Rebel Ridge star, 74, sat down with talk show host, 56, Mr Jimmy Kimmel Live!where Don revealed that his actress daughter, Dakota Johnson35, he was a “very eventful kid” who always had a prank or two up his sleeve.

“You wanted to be really careful about leaving blank sheets of paper on the desk or things like that,” said the father-of-five, “because she would promptly draw a big dick on it.”

Kimmel, who lives “next door” to Dakota, has also gotten used to finding penis-filled documents in his house, thanks to his 7-year-old son. Billy. “I did this to my dad and my son is doing it to me!” he said, jokingly, “Maybe this is the community we moved into.”

In addition to Dakota’s NSFW cartoons, Don said, “If I left my phone lying around anywhere, kind of unattended, she would take the phone and somehow get into my contacts and send obscene messages to random people.”

Don shares the Dakota with his ex-wife Melanie Griffith. He is also father to sons Deacon, 18, and Jasper, 22, and daughter Atherton, 24, with current wife Kelley Phleger, as well as son Jesse, 41, with his former partner Patti D’Arbanville.

Kimmel is father to son Billy and daughter Jane, 10, who he shares with his wife Molly McNearney. He and his ex-wife Gina Maddy share two grown children together: daughter Katie, 33, and son Kevin, 31.

After Don and Phleger dropped Deacon off at the University of Southern California in August, the actor spoke to PEOPLE about his relationships with his children.

“It’s my sixth and last,” Don tells People. “He might have done the best job there,” he says of his youngest son. He jokes: “I have a famous daughter who probably wouldn’t like to read this in print!”

He says Deacon is an exact clone of his late father. “He has the looks of ten movie stars, but he probably won’t make it because he’s incredibly genuine and doesn’t mind telling you when you’re full of poo!”
