Dwayne Johnson is the most self-absorbed celebrity in Hollywood.
You don't think Bruce Willis or vin Diesel are worst? Never met them but I hear they are douches.

The Rock is an enigma....in a sense he doesn't really exist...he morphs into whatever makes the most money. When he first came out in the WWE he was like a quiet, humble 2nd or 3rd generation wrestler representing his family...that was his gimmick...then the whole If ya smell!!!!! stuff...from humble to overly brash and confident...does Saturday Night Live he's a comic....now an actor...kind of even a representative of bodybuilding.....he represents everything but stands for nothing....sort of the state of our society today.

Dedicating a lot of his life to charity and helping others who need not just money but emotional support, The Rock has done work for: Beacon Experience, Boot Campaign, I Have a Dream Foundation, Kids Wish Network, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Make The Difference Network, Parkinson Society Maritime Region, Red Cross, Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation , Starlight Children’s Foundation, and Until There’s A Cure. He has even created his own charity named Dwayne Johnson Rock Foundation that targets troubled youth and helps them through teaching them about health and utilizing their time with physical time instead of gangs. Beyond just donating his time, he has also given thousands away to contribute as much as possible to helping these different charities.

Like Chris Rock says...."You don't get credit fo shit you SUPPOSED ta do"....You get as lucky as the Rock....give some to charity...and at his tax bracket he has a choice of paying tax on his millions or write it off by giving to a charity and I GUARANTEE you the fucker has a publicist advising him on what Charity gives the best publicity.....here's how it works son....at his tax bracket the Rock probably owes several hundred thousands....he can write off ANY contribution to a "legitimate" charity....So all the charities come at the Rock and say...."If you donate $400,000 to our charity we will give you a $500,000 tax credit...you save $100,000 because we count the free publicity as $100,000......wink wink
