"The most powerful thing that we can be is ourselves," he said."When I first got to Hollywood, they didn’t know what the hell to do with me. I was this half-black, half-Samoan, 6-foot-4, 275-pound pro-wrestler.""I was told at that time, 'Well, you gotta be a certain way. You gotta drop some weight, you gotta be somebody different. You gotta stop working out.' Stop doing the things that I love. 'You’ve gotta stop calling yourself The Rock.
"So I made a choice," he said."And the choice was, I wasn't going to conform to Hollywood, Hollywood was going to conform to me. So, Hollywood conformed to me, and here I am with all of you getting the Generation Award. HOLY SHIT!"“What you see up here tonight, that's who I am. I'm proudly half-black and half-Samoan, and I wanted to bring those cultures up here for the world to see.
The Hollywood powerhouse also emphasized the importance of pairing authenticity with kindness, compassion, and inclusivity."It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice."AND ON THAT NOTE: CONGRATS, MR. ROCK!!! KEEP DOING YOU AND WE'LL KEEP ON DOING US <3
