Dwayne Johnson’s Shocking Transformation Leaves Fans Worried
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson stunned fans at the Venice Film Festival with a drastically slimmer physique, sparking shock, admiration, and concern online. Once admired for his massive, muscular build, Johnson now appeared shrunken, earning the nickname “The Pebble.” Social media buzzed with speculation about possible health issues, medication effects, or steroid withdrawal. Johnson, however, clarified that the 60-pound weight loss was a deliberate transformation for his role as UFC fighter Mark Kerr in The Smashing Machine. Dismissing drug rumors, he explained the shift came from personal health challenges and a deep creative drive. His new look has reignited debate over Hollywood’s extreme physical transformations and their toll on stars.
