\n\tDwayne \u201cThe Rock\u201d Johnson is a true country fan, but did you know he\u2019s a country singer too? Dwayne Johnson may have appeared in Chris Janson\u2019s music video for \u201cWhatcha See Is Whatcha Get,\u201d but he\u2019s not just there for his good looks. He\u2019s got singing chops too.<\/p>\n
\n\tDwayne Johnson:<\/p>\n
\n\tI can tell you that he had surprised and blessed me with an open invitation from himself and the Opry for me to join them on the Opry stage, which I cannot wait to do. That\u2019s a dream come true.<\/p>\n
\n\tTetris Kelly:<\/p>\n
\n\tHe told us how he almost became a country singer when he was evicted from Hawaii as a teenager and discovered the country scene in Nashville.<\/p>\n
\n\tDwayne Johnson:<\/p>\n
\n\tI was in Piggly Wiggly singing, like not caring, and I was singing a Hank song. I\u2019ll never forget, a woman came around and she kind of looked at me. And I thought I\u2019d done something wrong. She goes, \u201cOh, I\u2019ve just came around to see who was singing.\u201d And she goes, \u201cDo you sing? Do you?\u201d And I\u2019m 15 and I went, \u201cNo, I just love to sing. I love country.\u201d She goes, \u201cYou should go down to [Broadway]. That\u2019s where all the singers are.\u201d And I went, \u201cOK.\u201d And that\u2019s when I started hanging out on Broadway, trying to get a gig at these honky-tonks because I had this dream in my head that I was, or delusion, that I was a country music star.<\/p>\n
