Rock’s mother interrupted her interview with Jimmy Fallon for a play and was adorable

Now we know where Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s talent and charisma come from!

Wednesday night, he continued Tonight’s show with Jimmy Fallon to promote his new special comedy “Young Rock”, which is based on his life and his story as a fighter and competitive actor.

They talked about the cast of the show and the importance of finding the right person to play the Samoan mother, and then Jimmy mentioned, by chance, that he recently saw The Rock’s Mom playing the ukulele and singing a song at his grandfather’s grave in Hawaii on Instagram. The rock told Jimmy, “She’s right here,” and called his mother to greet him.


Ata Johnson, 72, jumped straight into her son’s interview with a big smile and together they burst into an unexpected rendition of “Savalivali Means Go For a Walk,” a Samoan song. Dwayne, 46, looked confused at first and then suddenly looked like a little boy swept into his mother’s charm as he laid his head in his hand and began to sing.

Then Ata enthusiastically announced, “We have one more!” to which her son replied, “No, we don’t have one anymore! What’s going on?” and burst into confused laughter.

The next song was just as charming, and Jimmy couldn’t help but blush as they sang the words in perfect harmony together:

“We love you, Jimmy / Oh, yes, we love you / We love you, Jimmy / and that’s true. When we’re away from you / we’re blue. Oh Jimmy, we love you.”

Jimmy kissed her and said, “You just stole the interview. You’re incredible. You’re a superstar!”

The Rock said on Twitter that his mother had a great time because he loves Jimmy Fallon – “I think more than I do, because she never sang me this song !?”

He also reacted on Instagram:

“My mother loves @jimmyfallon as a son, so I thought she would like to come in improvised style and sing a song with her ukulele.

But after the first song ends, she says, “We have one more” … to which I said “NO, WE DON’T HAVE ANY MORE” … 😂😂😂 🛑

But he started groping anyway and the moment he started singing ..

“I LOVE YOU JIMMYYYYY OH YES YES DOOOOO ….”

I fell in step with her and I started singing too 🤷🏾

At this point I handed over any control and power I thought I had and I just let this big slice of goodness pie 🥧😇 enjoy !!!!

I’m a lucky son of a gun because I have such a positive motherly strength. What a happy soul he has 🙏🏾

I admit, her hand is quite infectious ✨

People on the internet are obsessed with their adorable relationship, and now there are calls for mom to release more songs.

The people on Upworthy’s Instagram continued their praise when I shared the fun video:

I’ve always known that Rock is a good guy – now we see exactly why!

His new show “Young Rock” premieres next Tuesday on NBC.
