Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has been hit with some horrific news.
“Sending all my thoughts and prayers,” wrote one fan.
“This is so sad and scary,” another concurred.
Now, Dwayne Johnson is one of the most recognizable celebrities in the world.
With his staggering 6 ft 5 inches, 260 lbs frame, he’d be pretty hard to miss.
But it’s his expressive face (and infamous eyebrows) that really set him apart from the rest.
Let’s face it, everyone loves this guy!
He started out in the world of WWE, where he became one of the greatest wrestlers of all time…
This is where Johnson first earned his nickname “The Rock” — thanks to his ring presence.
However, he decided to try his hand at acting, knowing there was limited longevity in wrestling…
Johnson successfully transitioned his career into this sphere and is now as well known as an actor as he was as a wrestler, which is pretty impressive.
Since starting his acting endeavor, Johnson has been in a whole host of different titles…
Johnson is probably most famous for his performances in the Fast and Furious movies.
He plays Luke Hobbs, an intimidating special agent and self-described “ice-cold can of whoop-a**.”
And this might be his most iconic role!
He even made it to Disney…
Johnson voiced the demigod Maui in the huge Disney hit Moana — complete with an amazing song and rap which sent the internet into hysterics.
But we’ll always know him as The Rock, no matter what he decides to take on…
He’s one of the most famous wrestlers of all time and has numerous titles and awards.
Despite technically retiring from wrestling in 2004, The Rock still makes public appearances from time to time.
Much to his fans’ delight!
So it’s safe to say Johnson has built an enviable career for himself.
Transitioning from one niche area and building an enormous Hollywood career out of it is no mean feat — it’s clear Johnson is a savvy businessman.
And just a genuinely nice guy…
For a long time, many have cited Johnson as one of the nicest guys in Hollywood for countless reasons:
The first being, that he’s always great to his fans.
Frequently posting about meeting them on his social media.
And of course, one of thing that always melts people’s hearts…
He takes care of his mom.
He just seems like an all-around good guy.
Despite this, some fans are becoming pretty irritated with the actor.
One of Johnson’s latest movies was Red Notice, and it got a decent reception from fans…
Although, there were many that weren’t all that impressed.
One took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the movie, writing: “Watching Red Notice on Netflix, with Dwayne Johnson playing the same character Dwayne Johnson always plays.”
And it seems since his latest movie came out, many are echoing this tweet.
Many of his fans have taken to Twitter recently to share the reason they’re losing love for Johnson…
One Twitter user wrote: “not trying to be a hater but can Dwayne Johnson just take a break from being in stuff for like… a year or something. Just give us a breather man lmao.”
That’s right, it seems fans think he’s taking on too much.
And with him appearing in over forty movies since he started out in 1999, we can’t help but agree.
Recently, Johnson also opened up to fans about something near and dear to his heart…
His body!
In an interview with Wired, he was asked, “What’s wrong with The Rock’s abs?”
“That’s so f***** up!” he replied.
“I think because, on Instagram, all these Instagram fitness models have these incredible six, eight, 12, 24-pack stomachs.
“I got like a five-and-a-half pack, sometimes a four-and-a-half pack,” Johnson continued.
“But the problem was – which a lot of people don’t know – I tore in a wrestling match, I tore the top of my quad off my pelvis, it went bang, in a wrestling match.
“And then what that did was that caused a chain reaction and it tore my abdomen wall, so then I had to do a triple hernia emergency surgery, of a tear, a tear, and a tear,” he explained.
“So they’re not like perfect abs.
“These f****** a******* who are Googling ‘what’s wrong with The Rock’s abs?’ – well it’s called a wrestling match for 45 minutes and the top of my quad popped off my pelvis, and my adductor popped off my pelvis,” Johnson laughed.
“And the pain I went through… I gotta fix that s***, I’m gonna Google ‘what did The Rock overcome?'” he said.
Now that’s the right attitude.
Johnson’s mom has been in a horrific car accident.
He shared the news in a heartwrenching Instagram post.
“Thank you God she’s ok,” he wrote.
“Angels of mercy watched over my mom as she was in a car crash late last night.”
“She’ll survive and continue to get evaluated,” he continued on.
”This woman has survived lung cancer, tough marriage, head on collision with a drunk driver and attempted suicide.”
“She’s a survivor, in ways that make angels and miracles real.”
”Thank you LAPD & LAFD for being so caring & focused. Thanks for staying on phone and talking me thru it all.”
He even shared a photo of the car.
Which truly depicted quite how brutal the car crash had been.
The red Cadillac Escalade had suffered heavy damage.
The front passenger side has seemingly borne the brunt of the force.
The shell of the car had split, revealing the interior.
It also looked as though the airbag had been deployed.
The crash too place in Los Angeles on Wednesday night.
But it is not yet known what the cause of the accident was.
Dwayne thanked God for his mom’s survival.
And looking at the state of the car, many are calling the fact she’s still alive a miracle.
Dwayne concluded his emotional Instagram post with a plea to his fans.
Saying that those who are lucky enough to still have their parents should hold them extra tight.
He concluded: “I got one parent left, so if you still got your mom and dad make sure you hug ‘em hard, cos you never know when you’ll get that 3am call we never want to get.”

We’re sending our thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery!
