Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson made headlines last week, but not for one of his movies. He was pulled over by the police, and here’s the reason why.

Emily Blunt And Stanley Tucci On The Hollywood Walk Of Fame

Dwayne Johnson just wanted to visit his friends. The 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' actors, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci, were honored with stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Blunt and Johnson have worked together numerous times, and he wanted to show his support for her, not knowing what was about to happen.

Alongside other actors, such as Meryl Streep and Matt Damon, 'The Rock' delivered a speech at the ceremony, calling Blunt “one grateful woman who will wake up with her feet on the ground, being grateful about every moment.” He showed a lot of admiration for her humbleness. According to him “it’s about time” that Blunt and Tucci were honored at the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Blunt was clearly moved by his words and showed how grateful she was by saying: "It's very difficult to sum up how meaningful this is to me and the juggernaut that showed up to speak about me has just blown my hair back."

After the event, 'The Rock' was stopped by the police on his way home. The reason? The tinted windows of his car.

In California, the front side windows must allow over 70% visible light transmission. The fine for a first violation of the law is only $25. For a second violation it’s $200. Regardless of whether it was his first or second offense, the world-famous actor should be able to pay the fine.

Although it sounds like an insult at first, it’s actually a joke among friends. Hart and Johnson have been best buddies for years.

Following the ticketing incident, Hart started joking about how he called the cops on Johnson and referred to him as a “piece of s***”. Obviously, it’s not meant seriously, because the actor said it with a big smile on his face.
