Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson revealed his adorable nickname for his daughter Tiana, six, as he discussed his kids’ movie debut in Moana 2.
The actor, 52, whose latest project debuts in theaters Wednesday, shares the big screen with his daughters Jasmine, eight, and Tiana – whose mom is his wife Lauren Hashian.
The girls voice two members of the Moana-be’s fan club in the film – with the ex-wrestler comparing his youngest child to songstress Beyonce.
‘Tia, our littlest one, I call her T-yonce’, the Kids Choice Award winner told Entertainment Tonight, shimmying his shoulders as he explained ‘she comes struttin’ over.’
The girls also appeared on the blue carpet with their dad and mom at the film’s debut on the island of Oahu.
The on-screen tough guy seemed to have a ball reprising his role as Maui, but said watching the movie with his girls was a ‘dream come true.’

‘They were sitting like this,’ he explained, demonstrating that the girls were on the ends of their seats while taking in the animated adventure, ‘and waiting for their part too,’ clarifying ‘especially their part. It’s the best’
‘I always like to say it’s the best part of fame,’ the Disney star maintained.
Johnson brought both Jazzy and Tia along with him for a meet and greet with some Make-A-Wish recipients who had been flown to Hawaii with their families for the film’s premiere.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation is a nonprofit organization that helps fulfill the wishes of seriously ill children in the United States.
In a video shared on social media, Tiana asked, ‘And they’re supposed to see you?’
‘Yes,’ the WWE wrestler replied.
One child even made a handmade gift for the star and handed him a replica of his Moana character Maui’s hook made out of Clay.
‘I love this,’ the actor gushed, ‘You mind if I wear it now?’
The actor tied the necklace around his neck telling the boy, ‘Thank you, man.’
