Dwayne Johnson showed that it wasn’t just regular Swifties who were having a hard time getting tickets to his Eras tour.
A good friend of theirs reached out with a big request for tickets who they said they hated having to do, but couldn’t find affordable tickets for themselves.
When The Rock decided to do the favor, he discovered that he couldn’t get tickets either and, for the first time in his life, he had to use his fame and connections to obtain the much coveted tickets.
“That’s never happened in my career. I usually don’t have to pull strings… I just make it happen,” Johnson, 52, said. Entertainment tonight.
“In this case, it was to a good friend of mine who said, ‘Please, Taylor. Last concert.” I’m never good at asking for that kind of thing. I’m good at giving it. I hate asking for things. I don’t do it.’
And while the Moana star may not like pulling strings like that, she’s glad she did because her friend was so happy about it.

The star said he followed it to achieve the ‘champion’ physique required for his action-packed scenes.
“I have been working extremely hard dieting, training and conditioning like no other role in my entire career,” he wrote.
‘Manipulating water, sodium, cardio but also having to push and pull real iron to have dense, dry and detailed muscles.
“It’s a real science that requires months and months to get it all done with my strength and conditioning coach @daverienzi who keeps a very watchful eye and constantly fine-tunes our strategy daily.”
