Dwayne Johnson says he repeatedly sings 'You're Welcome' from 'Moana' for his daughter
As parents finish up another week sheltering at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, some are realizing just how easy it is to keep their littlest ones entertained -- even if it can be a little repetitive. Case in point, Dwayne Johnson.
"And for the 937th time today she wants daddy to sing along with Maui," Johnson, 47, captioned a video of him mouthing along the words to "You're Welcome" from Disney's "Moana" as his 1-year-old Tiana Gia sits complacently on his lap.
Her eyes are glued to the screen as Johnson holds her arms and cycles them around as he sways along to the song. Eventually, he becomes so engrossed by the tune, he picks Tiana up and begins bouncing her on his lap, causing her to laugh and smile.
While Tiana, who turns 2 on Friday, doesn't have the lyrics down as well as her dad, she does adorably sing along during the parts she recognizes.
The "Jumanji" actor further revealed in the caption that his daughter's obsession with the character Maui, whom he voices in the film, is purely coincidental.
"She has no idea we’re the same person," he said.
Beyond sharing an adorable daddy-daughter moment with his fans, Johnson told his fellow parents that even he's starting to feel worn down by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
"I have no idea what day it is anymore, but I am sure it’s one that ends with 'Y,'" he admitted before giving his fans a little pep talk. "To all the mama and papa bears out there going thru it - we understand. 24hr parenting."
As for his recommendation as to how to stay sane, he sad: "Get your sleep and cocktails when you can."
