i konw we have general topics and rumours and stuff but this is just a place to come a nd do anything(enjoy)
if you dont like it dont use it
1. Do your wife and family call you Dwayne, or The Rock?
Usually Dwayne, but sometimes a lot worse than that if Iím not on good behavior.
2. How much money is in your pocket, at this minute?
$62, not counting credit cards.
3. Youíre in airplanes almost constantly. How has your life changed since the horror of Sept. 11?
I find myself constantly thinking now of my baby daughter, and thinking of her genuine innocence and wanting to protect her at all costs, much like anyone else who has kids or a family. I donít have the luxury of staying off planes, though I wish I did. However, I will stand by the notion that I will not live my life in fear.
4. Your trademark arched eyebrow -- ìthe Peopleís Eyebrow.î Whoís the first person you ever gave it to?
My eighth-grade girlfriend. I was rounding third, getting ready to hit home, and she put up the big stop sign.
5. Youíve got many, but which is your favourite catchphrase?
I don't have one favourite but of course, ìIf you smell what The Rock is cookingî is one. Now, considering the time of crisis weíre in: ìJust bring it.î And on a lighter note, asking someone if theyíd like to try some of ìthe Peopleís Strudel.î
6. Most embarrassing moment in the business?
About three years ago, working as a heel in Madison Square Garden, I came out feeling frisky, sauntering as only The Rock can saunter, and made a quick leap into the ring. I slipped onto the ring apron and almost knocked my ribs through my back. Everybody started to laugh, and I started to laugh, trying to mask the pain.
7. How much Rock merchandise do you have in your home?
Actually, none. My mom, however, has an entire room solely dedicated to her baby boy. And it amazes me, because every single bit of merchandise is sent to my assistant, then sent to my mom, and itís an amazing sight to me. Every time I go home thereís always something new in that room, from a little pinball machine to guysí boxers.
8. Last thing you do as you leave the dressing room to go to the ring?
I give thanks to the Good Lord for giving me strength.
9. The best part of starring in The Mummy Returns and the upcoming Scorpion King, and the worst part of being a sports entertainer?
The best: being able to tell long, compelling, evocative stories -- and, of course, requesting chocolate-chip cookies in my trailer every day. And the worst: the honest answer is I have no answer -- I absolutely love the industry and what I do. (Laughs) But, if Iím booked in one more match against the Big Show, Iím quitting.
10. Whatís the most bizarre thing youíve been asked to autograph?
Not so much bizarre as pretty cool: signing a tattoo of my bull (logo), or just a pair of eyes with my eyebrow, or even my face, knowing this fan will then tattoo my signature on themselves. Itís on thighs, booty cheeks, backs, even breasts. (Laughs) Usually I sign ìThe Rockísî, apostrophe ìsî, as if itís mine.
11. Whoís the most impressive person youíve ever met?
Muhammad Ali. And if only Iíd have been so lucky to have met Martin Luther King Jr.
12. Youíve got a fine voice. Do you serenade your baby daughter?
Iíd like to think I have a decent voice, but I attempted to sing her a lullaby last night and it had the reverse effect. Instead of her falling asleep, she cried for hours.
13. Itís 2019, and sheís just turned turned 18. Do you approve of her dating a pro wrestler?
Assuming I havenít been cloned by then, unequivocally, absolutely I do not approve. But then again, as bad as I was, hell no, across the board.
14. Best friend in the business?
Four, in the WWF: Pat Patterson, Steve Austin, Vince McMahon, and Shane McMahon.
15. You have a lot of time to kill backstage. How do you entertain yourself?
Generally Iím in some sort of meeting or on the phone, conducting
business within the industry or, say, the movie business. I wish I had more time to kill -- the camaraderie in our locker room is second to none. I enjoy hanging out and laughing with the guys. But every TV (production) day, no matter if itís a big match or just a promo segment in which Iím talking, I look at it like game day, with a game face.
16. When youíre in the ring, do you read the fansí signs?
Every night. Anybody who knows me knows how much I appreciate the
passionate fans we have, and I know how much time they put into their signs. Iíve loved a big moving eyebrow; a big moving hand saying ìJust Bring Itî; a woman's sign about pie thatís been Rock-tested and approved; and guys dressed up in aprons and chef hats, spelling: ìWe smell what The Rock is cooking.î In Montreal, when I hear, ìWe smell what youíre cookingî in French, it doesnít get any better than that.
17. When you have a championship belt, is it in your carry-on luggage or your checked bags?
I never have it with me. Thereís a guy with the WWF who takes care of it. If I have it with me, everybody wants to see it. If it was in a checked bag, Iíd be afraid itíd be stolen. (Laughs) At least Iím not like the Dudley Boyz, who wear theirs around their waists walking through airports.
18. Whatís the most romantic thing Dwayne Johnsonís ever done?
Let me ask my wife. (He does.) OK, I was filming The Scorpion King on the West Coast, a long way from home, and my wife was three months pregnant. Any woman whoís gone through it knows the first trimester is the ìhell period,î and my being away was very difficult. So I hired a very good Elvis impersonator. He went and sang a specific list of love songs to her, with all the other women in her office around.
19. When did you last cry?
Dwayne cries every time he sees that damn movie Beaches. It really gets to me. The Rock cries every time he hears Tazz talk on the microphone, and heíll cry the next time he hears Pat Patterson sing My Way in a karaoke bar.
20. OK, the refereeís back is turned. Under what circumstances would you advocate the use of a foreign object?
In the sports entertainment industry? Any time it helps you to prove your point. Outside the industry? (Laughs) Any time your mother-in-law thinks she has a point to prove.
