Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson talks ‘Mana’ Energy of New York at Moana Premiere

I know what you're going to be doing this weekend. Moana. There you go. Make way. So you got a real good interview. Yeah, you're welcome. We're talking about Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Somebody here in the studio was just calling me the pebble. Is that a compliment? I don't think so. But last night at the United Palace Theater in Washington Heights, Maui bringing the island vibes to the big city as Dwayne the Rock Johnson and Lin-Manuel Miranda surprising fans on stage with this performance of You're Welcome ahead of the screening of Disney's live action Moana. All right. It was a big celebration of Polynesian culture, music, and the aloha spirit on that blue carpet as Dwayne the Rock Johnson stars as the demigod Maui in the live action Moana. Mr. Johnson, aloha. How are you, sir? How you doing, man? Doing excellent. Thank you so much for your time here. And likewise, I like your lays a little bit more. But you know. Well, you know. You are the rock, so it's all good. You can't always get laid the way you want to. Hey, you said it, not me. But let's talk a little bit about the Moana of the Polynesian culture. It's so beautiful. It's so layered. Do you feel like New York City has its own Moana? And if so, can you explain that? I can. And I do. So Moana, I love that you brought that up. Moana is a word that we have in our culture. I'm half Samoan and half black. And on the Polynesian side, Moana is a spirit that you have. It's an energy. It's almost like a force that's undeniable. Like, you feel it. Yeah. Here tonight. Like an aura. It's like an aura. And you feel it. You don't feel it all the time, but you do feel it. And it should be acknowledged. And I feel it here in this theater. And I feel like New York City has always had that aura. And I know from personal experiences, like back when I was wrestling and suplexing dudes, 300-pound sweaty men, I started my career, my first match ever in the WWE, ever, was in Madison Square Garden. No way. And that's pressure, man. But the Moana, what you felt that night, I will never forget it. And I always say that that night is when I was like, oh, I'm a son of New York because it was really special. So I felt it then. You feel it now. And I felt it pulling up to this theater, man. Have so much fun tonight. And I got to know, the button to chest ratio, what is it for The Rock? How many buttons do you actually have buttoned? One, two, three, I think three or four. Can I get to your level here? Let's do it, man. Might have to do one more. One more? No, well, that's it. Okay, yeah, that's two. It's like Elmer's glue down here. Okay, let's cut. Dwayne, thank you so much for your time. Thank you, brother. Thank you, thank you. Lots of love. All right, and Moana sails into theaters today. So check that out. Unbutton a little bit. He told you to unbutton a little bit. Let's save it for the 8 o'clock hour. Only three or four. Okay, three or four. After hours. And Dan, too.
