He genuinely thought it was cool at the time.
We’ve expressed our admiration for The Rock on numerous occasions in the past.
He’s funny, he’s a beast in the gym, he’s seemingly very well connected, and he comes across as very down-to-earth and a man you’d happily share a pint with.
He appears to dress pretty sharply too – but that wasn’t always the case.
In fact, you more than likely have come across a picture of The Rock from his early days, dressed in a black turtleneck and blue jeans, with an oversized chain hanging from his neck and a bum bag, or fanny pack, hanging around his waist.
So infamous is the outfit that, as Graham Norton mentioned on last night’s show, it is now worn at fancy-dress parties and by celebrities taking the piss out of their colleague, like Seth Rogen.
The Rock’s fellow guests on the show, Liam Hemsworth and Jeff Goldblum, even got in on the act.

It’s fair to say that the jeans, turtleneck and bum bag have long been burned at this stage.
