Black Adam star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is not a celebrity who shares his political beliefs online, and he's remained neutral in front of the public for his entire career, often talking only about issues in America rather than those in the White House. However, the pro wrestler turned actor shocked the world today by fully endorsing Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for President and Vice President.
Why is this a big deal?
Johnson is not only a global superstar, but an actor with 199 million Instagram followers and 14.8 million Twitter followers.
