<\/p>\nWhatever Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is cooking these days is piping hot. Or so says People magazine, which named the wrestler-turned-actor this year’s “sexiest man alive.”<\/p>\n
Johnson, 44, whose famous catch phrase in the ring is, “Can you smell what The Rock is cooking?”, said learning about his new title put him in a quandary.<\/p>\n
“What went through my mind was just how cool and exciting it is,” Johnson told People. “And then I thought, ‘Wow, we\u2019ve pretty much reached the pinnacle.\u2019 I\u2019m not quite too sure where we go from here.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Johnson rose to mainstream fame in the mid-1990s as a contender with World Wrestling Entertainment Inc (WWE.N) and later became an actor and Hollywood producer.<\/p>\n
Johnson, who stands 6 feet 5 inches (1.96 meters) and weighs 245 pounds (111 kg), is known for his herculean appearance. In fact, he played the mythological character in the 2014 feature film “Hercules.”<\/p>\n
In his latest project, the actor is featured in the upcoming Disney animated film ‘Moana’ as the voice of demigod Maui.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve made big sweeping changes in my career over the years, which have served me nicely,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I feel that the big sweeping changes that happened in my life, in my relationships, of being a dad, of being a partner, and the things that I was and the things that I am, has really lent itself to a confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Johnson has an 11-month old daughter, Jasmine, with his longtime girlfriend Lauren Hashian, and a 15-year-old daughter with ex-wife, producer Dany Garcia.<\/p>\n
The entertainer recently said he was poised to make another major change and eventually trade in show business to enter the political ring.<\/p>\n
‘The Fast and the Furious’ franchise star told Reuters that the excitement surrounding last week’s presidential election had renewed public interest in his running for office.<\/p>\n
“Especially now, leadership is so important,” Johnson said. “Great leadership is so important; respected leadership is so important.”<\/p>\n
