Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt Share Laughs and Tequila Shots While Prepping for 2023 Oscars — Watch…
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Emily Blunt started their night off at the 2023 Oscars with a lot of laughs and a shot of tequila!
Prior to taking the stage at the Dolby Theater to present at the 95th annual awards show last Sunday, the Jungle Cruise costars linked up at a Hollywood home to get ready for their evening out.
Johnson, 50, shared footage to his Instagram on Thursday of the experience, giving fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse at the fun. “What getting ready for the Oscars is really like,” a voiceover read over the video reel.
In the clip, the two both put the finishing touches on their red carpet looks — Blunt, 40, greeting a jacket-less Johnson while rocking a salon-style nylon cape over her white, off-the-shoulder gown by Valentino. “I’m wearing a white dress and I don’t trust you,” she said, keeping her distance from Johnson. “Let’s do the worst Hollywood air kiss ever.”
The jokes only continued from there and Blunt poured shots of his Teramana tequila for the two. “Oh look at this, I should get paid for this s—,” she said to the camera, posing with the bottle. “I’m just saying!”
Taking the shot, Blunt kept the laughs coming. “Whole thing,” she told Johnson, after he needed to take a second turn to finish it. “Have you ever done a shot before?”
She was equally outspoken about Johnson’s ensemble, telling him, “You’re not allowed to wear the sunglasses.”
As the Young Rock creator’s team helped him with his “ballet pink” tuxedo jacket, Blunt asked Johnson, “Is it easier when you have Spanx on? Do we need to get some Manx?” — referring to “man Spanx.”
