By the time Dwayne Johnson finished dancing for his daughter Jasmine on Monday, she could probably smell what the Rock was cooking in that Pikachu outfit.
Johnson danced up a sweat for his young daughter for Halloween, entertaining her by shaking his booty in a giant Pikachu outfit.
Somewhat unfortunately, the encounter resulted in tears — and not because the sight of an enormous man in a Pikachu outfit might be considered traumatic for some infants.
“Pikachu is baby Jasmine’s FAVORITE character. So, for Halloween me and @laurenhashianofficial decided the real life Pikachu was gonna come to the house for a visit,” the wrestler-turned-actor wrote. “What Pikachu didn’t know was that Jazzy would start crying when he stopped dancing and demanded he continue to shake his tail with a loud ‘EH!.’ So, Pikachu danced over.. and over.. and over.. and over… and over.. again.”
A video documenting the encounter shows Johnson delighting his daughter with his Pikachu dance, before turning the corner and removing the head of his costume, revealing rivulets of sweat pouring down his bald dome.
“Whew; what daddies do,” the overheated Johnson declared.
On the plus side, at least it was just sweat and not some other bodily substance that Johnson ended up covered in this time.
