Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson might have become Hollywood’s biggest superstar, but he still enjoys having fun with his fans. Although he might not mingle with them physically all the time (especially in the era of social distancing), he still acknowledges them.

In one such instance, recently The Rock was driving in his southern California neighborhood when he saw a celebrity tour bus. In there, there were a bunch of fans.

Celebrity Tour Buses take tourists to various locations throughout Beverly Hills and the Hollywood area to find locations where celebrities are either currently living or once lived.
