Prayers Pouring In for 'The Rock' As He Mourns a 'Legend': ‘One of the Best’
Fans are rallying behind Dwayne "The Rock" Johnsonas the former pro-wrestler mourns the death of renowned Fijian-Hawaiian recording artist George Brooks Veikoso, AKA Fiji. The "Sweet Darlin'" artist died earlier this month in Fiji at the age of 55, with The Rock taking to Instagram early on Tuesday, July 29 to share a video of him singing Frank Sinatra's "My Way," sharing with fans how much the cover meant to him. "Rest in Love Uso Fiji 💔🕊️," he began. "As you now sing with the angels, it’s appropriate since your voice will forever be heavenly."He continued, "This song 'My Way' that you sing so beautifully and soul stirring means so much to me (as you knew) as it was the song that my grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia used to sing to me when I was a little boy."Johnson admitted that he gets "emotional" watching and listening to the clip. "...at the end of the day - we’re all living life as best we can and we all do different things for different reasons - but at some in point in life, perhaps near the end - it’s a blessing to be able to say 'I did it my way,'" he added. "Rest in peace knowing you moved the world with your voice, made our Polynesian culture proud and most of all - you did it your way."
