The Rock Says Interview With Tabloid Where He Supposedly Bashed Snowflakes is ‘100% False’: ‘Never Happened’

By now you may have heard about an interview The Rock did in which let loose on “generation snowflake.” The Daily Star “revealed” in this interview that the megastar tore into people “looking for a reason to be offended.”

For obvious reasons this went semi-viral, and it appears this was even a cover story for the Daily Star, but as it turns out, the supposed interview was in fact a complete fake.

The Rock took to Instagram with this pretty direct debunking:

Settin’ the record straight.
The interview never happened.
Never said those words.
100% false.
If I ever had an issue with someone, a group, community or a generation — I’d seek them out, create dialogue and do my best to understand them.
Criticizing ain’t my style.
I don’t cast stones and we all get to be who we are.
