If You Wondered How Hard It Really Was To Get Eras Tour Tickets, The Rock Admitted He Had To Do Something ‘That’s Never Happened Before’ In His Career

by

As a long-time Taylor Swift fanatic who has witnessed her meteoric rise to stardom, I find it both amusing and heartwarming to see even the mighty Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, a man who typically commands attention without asking for it, finding himself in the unenviable position of having to pull strings to secure tickets for Taylor’s Eras Tour.

As Taylor Swift’s world tour nears its conclusion on December 8, marking nearly two years since it began, fans will undoubtedly cherish the moments from the Eras Tour for a lifetime. From the unexpected songs to the “22” hats and Travis Kelce appearances, many elements have made this tour extraordinary. One aspect that is certain to stand out is the difficulty in obtaining tickets. The Ticketmaster incident was a significant hurdle, and even celebrities like Dwayne Johnson encountered challenges securing passes, an unprecedented occurrence in his career.

This week, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who is also recognized as The Rock, announced the upcoming release of Moana 2 on the 2024 movie schedule. In this film, he will once again play Maui, a role he originated in the 2016 animated hit, and this time his daughters are also part of the cast. During an interview with ET, Johnson shared that his children are particularly fond of Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, and he had to leverage his celebrity connections to secure tickets for the much-anticipated Eras Tour, as it was “the only one” event they absolutely wanted to attend. In his own words, Dwayne Johnson stated:

In my entire professional journey, I’ve never encountered a situation where I needed to manipulate things behind the scenes. Typically, I find that I can simply make things work out without any unnecessary maneuvering.

It’s quite straightforward for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the renowned wrestler-turned-actor, to simply show up at an event and signal approval with his famous “People’s Eyebrow,” which usually opens doors for him. However, this wasn’t the experience when it came to Taylor Swift tickets. In the end, he managed to secure them for a close friend to attend the final show of her Eras Tour in Vancouver.

It was clear that the maneuver wasn’t familiar to Dwayne Johnson, and it seemed disconcerting for him, as he himself admitted.

I’m not comfortable with requesting things like that. However, when it comes to providing help or assistance, I excel. It’s just that I dislike having to ask for things myself; I rarely do so.

Turns out, even WWE legends aren’t immune to their share of turmoil. As for me, a gamer, I found myself in a similar situation when it came to treating my step-daughter to an unforgettable evening. Luckily, I had some favors to call in and managed to make it happen!

Dwayne Johnson might not be known for asking for favors, but he certainly knows how to follow in the footsteps of Taylor Swift when it comes to making memorable experiences for others. Although there have been concerns about his behavior on set, we’re familiar with his capacity for generosity as well.

In a reminiscent moment, Chris Evans shared an incident where his co-star (referred to as “The Red One”) once distributed $100,000 during a lottery among the cast and crew for their movie. Additionally, he showed kindness by sending a heartfelt present to Simone Biles following her remarkable achievement at the Paris Olympics this past summer.

Over the last few years, The Eras Tour has achieved a great deal, and now the artist can add to her list of accomplishments that she made Dwayne Johnson do something he’d never done before. If we could only get The Rock to persuade Taylor Swift to reveal the release date for her Reputation (Taylor’s Version), that would truly be a unique event.

Until then, keep up with all of the other things Swifties have to look forward to as you continue to stream Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) with your Disney+ subscription, and catch Dwayne Johnson in Moana 2 starting Wednesday, November 27.
