Ahead of presenting the Best Pop Solo Performance, The Rock gave a short speech to motivate the stars. He did so by making a joke about his singing skills. The Red One actor shared the video of the same on his social media too.
The WWE legend said, “Now music has always been a huge part of my life from the great Sam Cook to Elvis to Loretto to my boy Jay-Z to Louis Armstrong to Willie Nelson, who by the way gave me my first guitar. Pretty cool though.”
Johnson further said, “These and many artists helped me to shape who I’m and influenced my own singing style which at times includes singing keys that don’t exist. (sings his song from Moana) ‘You’re welcome’.”
