Rock Applauds After Criticism For Selling Shampoo

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson sees a funny side after the promoter was left scratching his head over the star’s latest brand endorsement.

Going to TikTok on Tuesday, June 2, the organizer Katy Napier (@happyyellowco) shared a video of her coming out Jumanji personal care brand for actress Papatui.

In the photo, which later went viral with more than five million likes, Napier showed off the products and an advert for Johnson, 54, which featured his bald head.

“Don’t give up on your dreams,” Napier said in the clip. “The Rock sells shampoo and conditioner, and he’s bald.”

This is not the first time Johnson’s Papatui brand has raised eyebrows with consumers.

When the brand launched in March 2024, some people made similar jokes about buying a shampoo and conditioner promoted by a bald man.

“Boy, this man is useless in the shampoo department,” one bemused TikTok user joked at the time, while another laughed, “I wouldn’t buy shampoo from a man with no hair!”

Talking to GQJohnson revealed that she decided to launch the personal care brand after years of being asked about her skin care routine.

“Working together is always the same when it comes to communication [asking about my skin routine],” Johnson told the newspaper at the time. I wanted to get guys in the space to be comfortable with owning our skin and taking care of ourselves because we like to think — we try our best, in a way — to own all these other areas.”

He added, “I’m not really an expert, but I’ve been lucky enough to have access to some of the best.”

The former WWE star also never shied away from joking about his lack of hair.

In April 2017, Johnson joked about X, “I’m not bald because I’m bald. I’m bald because my hair is a cross between an afro and hair from a Lama football bag.”
