Dwayne Johnson is a good man, talented actor and he was a successful WWE wrestler. In addition, he is the guy devoted to his family, while his body reminds us of those Grecian sculptures, but these are not true reasons why Dwayne Johnson is a perfect man. He’s been a celebrity for a long time and he managed to steer clear of controversy.
There are a lot of successful people who are great idols to the youth, but usually, there is the other “dark” side. For example, Bill Cosby’s history of alleged assault, Woody Allen’s problems came to spotlight once more, Louis C.K.’s behavior around women is scrutinized, plus there are more people we were looking up to that have a dirty track record.
And there is Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. He entered the WWE back in 1996 and became synonymous with the popular Attitude Era of the company, and it was WWE where he got his nickname – The Rock. He was in the world of wrestling for about two decades and not once did we hear something negative about him. If you don’t trust us, try it yourself – search the Internet and you will hardly find anything bad written about Johnson’s personality.
Even though Johnson was raised by his mother, he was looking up to his father who was a heavyweight wrestler. His grandad was “High Chief” Peter Maivia, while almost everyone in his family was in sports. Johnson failed to go to the NFL because he suffered from an injury, so he tried his luck in WWE as Rocky Maivia. One year after he had become a part of the WWE family, he married his college sweetheart Dany Garcia.
In the Attitude Era, there was an increase in the level of depicted violence and the incorporation of horrific or otherwise politically incorrect characters and storylines created for shock value. Steve Austin, as the perfect representative of the era, was later marked by domestic violence charges, while The Rock managed to avoid any controversy and move on.
Dwayne Johnsons started focusing more on filming, and he appeared in The Mummy Returns and The Scorpion King. After that, he had guest appearances on the Disney Channel where he was a host on Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards, and he started donating money to charity. His most important movie project is The Fast and the Furious where he was placed next to Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, but after Walker’s tragic death in 2013, The Rock inherited the second most important role in the movie. His daughter was born in 2001, while in 2007 he divorced his wife, but they remained business associates and friends. Shortly after that Johnson was seen in public with Lauren Hashian, his current partner.
Dwayne The Rock Johnson constantly uses social media to give us better insight into his private life. In some of his posts, we could see him buying his parents cars, talking about how he saved his mother from a suicide attempt when he was a teenager, spending time with his daughter, etc. It is natural to ask ourselves whether all this is true and if he is truly happy, but it seems as if Dwayne Johnson has a control over his life.
What we may call controversy has been happening since last August when he entered the so-called feud with The Fast and the Furious actor Vin Diesel. Johnson publicly called out his co-star Vin Diesel for unprofessionalism.
He wrote on Instagram: “You guys reading this know how much I believe in the idea of TEAM EFFORT. That means respecting every person, their time and their value when they step on to my set or partner with our production company. And like with any team — that’s a family — there’s gonna be conflict.”
He later explained: “My female co-stars are always amazing and I love ‘em. My male co-stars, however, are a different story. Some conduct themselves as stand-up men and true professionals, while others don’t … When you watch this movie next April and it seems like I’m not acting in some of these scenes and my blood is legit boiling – you’re right.”
Johnson may not have conducted in the right way by displaying problems publicly, but the crew later vouched for his professionalism and dedication. This can also be a fake just to draw attention to the movie, and if that’s the case then, well done.
So, as you see, Dwayne Johnson is a perfect man. Can you dig up some dirt on him? We dare you!
