Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson recently shared a heartwarming moment with his young daughter, Tiana, who is blissfully unaware that her dad is the voice behind Maui in Disney’s Moana. In a delightful Instagram video, The Rock is seen singing “You’re Welcome” with her, showcasing a charming father-daughter bonding experience during quarantine.
Tiana, just two years old, has repeatedly asked her dad to sing the catchy tune, and The Rock humorously noted in his caption, “For the 937th time today, she wants daddy to sing along with Maui. She has no clue we’re the same person. And honestly, I’ve lost track of what day it is, but it’s definitely not one that ends with a Y. To all the parents out there navigating this 24-hour parenting challenge, we feel you. Make sure to grab some sleep and cocktails when you can.”
The Joy of Singing with Kids
If your kids are constantly requesting you to belt out their favorite movie songs—whether from Frozen, Trolls, or other earworms—count your blessings that you’re not the actual artist behind the music. If you haven’t watched Moana, it’s definitely worth a look. The Rock portrays the charismatic Polynesian demigod who can shape-shift, and it’s a genuinely great film.
Interestingly, The Rock’s connection to Maui runs deep; he previously tweeted that his character was inspired by his grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia of Samoa, a renowned wrestler from the famous Anoa’i family.
Teaching Kids Hygiene with a Fun Twist
The Rock’s enthusiasm for singing “You’re Welcome” repeatedly is understandable, especially since he recently shared a video teaching Tiana the correct way to wash her hands. It turns out, the song’s rap section fits perfectly into the timing for effective handwashing—an entertaining way to help kids learn about hygiene!
