Dwayne Johnson Had to Pull Strings to Get Taylor Swift Tickets

Even Dwayne Johnson had a hard time getting hold of tickets to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.

The Moana 2 star recently told Entertainment Tonight that he had to pull some strings to get tickets for a friend, which is something he’s never had to do before.

“Taylor Swift. The only one. It’s never happened in my career. Usually, I don’t have to pull strings … I just make it happen,” Johnson, 52, told the outlet in an interview published Sunday, November 24. “In this case, it was for a good friend of mine who was like, ‘Please. Taylor. Last concert.’ I’m never good at asking for that kind of stuff. I’m good at giving it. Hate asking for stuff. I don’t do it.”

He continued, “But in this case, made a little call, Taylor made it happen, [we got] tickets … [my friend was] happy. I got the picture of the happy ladies who were there. I appreciate that about Taylor.”

Swift is preparing to wrap up her record-breaking Eras Tour, which began in March 2023 and will conclude in Vancouver on December 8.

The tour has brought out the stars, with everyone from Tom Cruise to Prince William attending a show.

The “Fortnight” singer is popular in the Johnson household, as is fellow pop superstar Beyoncé.

“We love Taylor, we love Beyoncé,” the actor said of his two daughters, Jasmine, 8, and Tiana, 6, whom he shares with wife Lauren Hashian. (Johnson also shares daughter Simone, 23, with ex-wife Dany Garcia.)

“Tia, our littlest one, I call her Tiyoncé,” Johnson shared his sweet nickname for his youngest daughter. “She’s like, ‘Yeah!’ She owns it.”

Johnson’s youngest daughters recorded voice cameos in the upcoming Moana sequel, in which the actor reprises his role as Maui.

“This was the sweetest and FUNNEST day! So exciting that the munchkins got to voice characters for MOANA 2!!” wrote Johnson’s wife, who shared a behind-the-scenes video of Jasmine and Tiana recording their scenes via Instagram on Friday, November 22. “The MOANA-BE’s! Moana’s mini fan club on her island 😍🥹🌺 Tonight will be the very first time we all get to watch it and hear their little voices come to life… we can barely contain the excitement! This movie has truly always meant the world to them and now they always have an even extra special connection .. definitely deserving of a cheeehooo!”
