Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the renowned actor and former professional wrestler, graced the red carpet of the 2025 Golden Globes with his 23-year-old daughter, Simone Garcia Johnson, on Sunday, January 5th. The event, held in Los Angeles, saw Johnson showcasing his signature style in a lavender satin shirt and matching jacket, paired with classic black dress pants and shoes. A chain necklace and tinted glasses completed his sophisticated ensemble.
Johnson’s presence at the Golden Globes was particularly significant as his film, Moana 2, was nominated for Best Motion Picture – Animated. In a red carpet interview with E!, Johnson expressed his deep affection for the film, highlighting its empowering message for young women. He emphasized how much it meant to him that his three daughters see themselves reflected in the character of Moana. He also jokingly referenced his role as Maui, the demigod with long hair, and his signature phrase “Cheehoo,” further emphasizing the film’s positive impact on young girls.

The Golden Globes appearance offered a glimpse into Johnson’s personal life, as he shared the spotlight with Simone, his daughter from his previous marriage to Dany Garcia. Johnson also has two younger daughters, Jasmine (9) and Tiana (6), with his current wife, Lauren Hashian.
In a 2021 interview with PEOPLE, Johnson opened up about the valuable lessons he’s learned from raising daughters. He shared that fatherhood has taught him the importance of listening with an open heart and responding with tenderness and gentleness, fostering a stronger connection with his children. He emphasized solving problems with them, rather than for them.
