Dwayne Johnson stopped by police after attending Walk of Fame ceremony

Dwayne Johnson’s showbiz celebrations came to a sour end yesterday when, shortly after attending Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony, he was pulled over by cops.

Still, he was every inch his cool, calm, collected self, turning a run-in with law enforcement into somewhat of a red carpet moment.

The Rock joined the Devil Wears Prada 2 stars as they were honoured with stars on the landmark walkway, joining major A-list names from Marilyn Monroe to Martin Scorsese.

Johnson, 53, is a long-time co-star of Blunt’s, having worked with the actress on Jungle Cruise (2021) and The Smashing Machine (2025), so it’s no surprise he was there to give a speech.

The real drama came afterwards, however, when the film icon was stopped by police for overly tinted windows, as reported by TMZ. California window tint law requires front windows to allow more than 70% of light to pass through, while windshield tinting is only permitted on the top four inches.

A fine is typically given for non-compliance, and removal or modification of the tinting is required.

Johnson was pulled over on his way home by Los Angeles Police Department; thankfully, the exchange was calm, and the Jumanji star even shared a friendly handshake with the officer who ticketed him.

Still sporting his crisp white shirt and cream trousers, the dapper actor stepped out of his vehicle to cooperate.

Pictures and video footage show Johnson chatting calmly to the cop, signing paperwork before heading on his way, keeping things professional.

Just hours earlier, the Baywatch star had been surrounded by fellow celebs for a huge milestone in Blunt’s and Tucci’s careers.

The wrestler-turned-actor shared some heartfelt words, as did Meryl Streep, Robert Downey Jr, and Matt Damon.

‘Every single day, knowing Emily, as many of us do, that is one grateful woman who will wake up feet on the ground, being grateful about every moment,’ he said, joking that ‘it’s about time’ she was given a Walk of Fame star.

‘I feel like when you’re grateful about every moment, that then leads to the thing I think we all look for, which is joy and peace of mind, and those are all the things I think that make up Emily and so much more.’

Johnson already has his own star on the Walk of Fame, and it sits proudly beside those of Vince McMahon and Kermit the Frog, as you do.

Blunt, 43, was accompanied by her supportive husband, John Krasinski, and her sister Felicity Blunt, who has also been married to Tucci, 65, since 2012, making the whole thing a sweet family affair.

In her own speech, the A Quiet Place star said: ‘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.’

She added, according to People: ‘You guys and the great loves of my life, who are all here, have made life such a deep privilege.’

Meanwhile, Damon, 55, said he ‘just can’t think of two people more deserving to be added to this cultural landmark, to be giving young artists hope’.

He told Blunt and Tucci: ‘You guys have just been doing consistently stellar work for decades, and it is such a joy to watch you guys.

‘But beyond that, you’re two of my favourite humans that I’ve ever met on this planet.’

‘You’ve been able to navigate and thrive in an incredibly difficult business with such grace, and you’ve been able to navigate personally and thrive so beautifully in a very, very tricky world. We love you so much,’ he added.

Following the speeches, Tucci was equally as moved, having been declared a ‘national treasure’ by Streep.

‘I never thought that I would be, first of all, working with her, but to be here today and have her say those things about me is probably the greatest honour I’ve ever had,’ he said of Streep, whom he appears opposite as Nigel in the Devil Wears Prada sequel, which lands in cinemas today.

‘At any rate, it has been an honour and absolutely exhausting to be a part of Hollywood for 45 years,’ stated the award-winning actor.

‘But I wouldn’t have traded it for the world.’

Reps for Dwayne Johnson have been contacted for comment.
