Thanks to Moana we learned that The Rock can sing and he proved it again over the weekend when he sang his own version of Over the Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz in his homestate of Hawaii to welcome the international press to the Jumanji junket.
Only DJ can get away with changing up the lyrics to “Somewhere over the rainbow, little birds fly. Supposed to be good luck if they sh!t on your shoulder.” And that is why we love that big muscle man with a huge heart, he such a naughty side. I would love him even more if he released a full version of that tune. Could you only imagine?
In an era where every day a celebrity is in the press for doing something repugnant, it is nice to know there are still good guys out there. Like The Rock who flew a teenage out fan, who is on hospice, out to meet him. Not only did the teen meet his idol, DJ also set him and his mom up in the best hotel room he could and it was unbelievable. Making his trip even more memorable, in a time when everyone that knows Marik wishes they could forget all he is going through with cancer. For those few hours they did. Which is a blessing no words can express.
This is not the first DJ has done this, and it will not be the last. But this is a time when we need stories like this. We need them every day, but more now than in the past
Warning if you read all the posts you will cry because you wish you could do something to make Marik and his family’s life easier. Then you see what DJ did and it is so beautiful, it will bring tears to your eyes.
Tomorrow when you read about that guy, remember there are guys like The Rock that go beyond the call of duty and make a difference in so many lives for the better.
First we are going to see The Rock take on animals in Jumanji next month and this Spring he will be doing it again in Rampage. The latter film looks like what would happen if Jumanji and San Andreas met on the big screen. Because of that I cannot wait to see it on April 20th.
Several celebrities’ children have been Miss or Mister Golden Globes throughout the decades like Melanie Griffith, Laura Dern, Joely Fisher, Freddie Prinze, Jr, Dakota Johnson and Rumer Willis to name a few. This year they are changing up the title and The Rock’s daughter Simone Johnson will be the first Golden Globe Ambassador.
The proud pop had this to say to say about his oldest child, “We’re extremely proud and thankful for this moment. Congratulations to our daughter @simonegjohnson on being selected as the very first #GoldenGlobes AMBASSADOR.
“Thank you to our friends and colleagues of the #HFPA for recognizing her value and voice.
An amazing and cool honor to rep our community and the #Globes75.
So much alofa and pride Xo D,”
Meanwhile the 16-year-old wrote, “finding words to describe exactly how i feel right now is a bit hard. thank you thank you thank you. thank you to the HFPA, my parents, and everyone else who has helped this all come together. I feel so blessed to be a part of this incredible journey and be known as the first Golden Globe Ambassador. #Globes75 @goldenglobes.” It almost sounds like she is giving the perfect speech at the awards gala instead of just handing out awards on January 7th.
Congrats to DJ and Simone! Next up, we need to get Dwayne Johnson to host one of these big awards shows. He is a natural and so freaking lovable! Who doesn’t love the college football player turned professional wrestler turned actor turned Sexiest Man Alive?
We know that The Rock can play football, wrestle, act, sing, dance, produce, cook, be a great dad, is a wonderful son, gives back to others, be his fans’ biggest fan and you have to wonder what is the one thing he cannot do? Today we learned that there is something he cannot do and that is paint. Here is a painting that People’s Sexiest Man Alive painted and there is nothing sexy about it. In fact, it is so childlike that if his daughter Jasmine wasn’t only 20 months old, I would swear she made it.
Now that you know there is at least one thing DJ cannot do, doesn’t that make you love him even more? It is nice to know that he is not perfect, but he is pretty darn close!
