Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson’s Protein-Packed Hosting Experience on SNL
In a recent interview, "Saturday Night Live" star Mikey Day revealed an amusing behind-the-scenes moment when Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson hosted the long-running sketch show. Day, 45, shared that while it was no surprise Johnson maintained a rigorous high-protein diet, the presence of a dedicated "chicken guy," who followed Johnson around with an industrial case of chicken, certainly captured his attention.
Johnson has hosted "SNL" five times, earning a place in the show’s esteemed Five-Timers Club. Known for his chiseled physique, he has disclosed his nutrition routine, which typically includes six high-protein meals a day. Breakfast often comprises eggs, bison, oatmeal, and fruit, while meals throughout the day showcase chicken, fish, and an array of complex carbohydrates, ensuring that about 40-45% of his diet is protein-rich.
In addition to discussing Johnson, Day is promoting his latest campaign with Dollar Car Rental. The ad features him as the "Common Sensei," guiding renters through travel nonsense. Day expressed a desire to work with fellow cast member Kenan Thompson, noting the fun dynamic they share.
Reflecting on his decade-long tenure at "SNL," Day remains focused on the present rather than the future, illustrating the intense pace of live comedy. He also expressed excitement about the upcoming UK version of "SNL," praising British humor’s influential role in comedy.
As the show continues to evolve, Day keeps his enthusiasm alive by brainstorming ideas for future episodes, with the next guest being Quinta Brunson. His commitment to the craft is evident as he navigates the unpredictable landscape of live television comedy.
