Dwayne Johnson's Moana Song 'You're Welcome' Just Went Platinum Again & His Daughter Tiana Had A Lot To Do With It

Tiana Johnson, Dwayne Johnson‘s third daughter, just helped “You’re Welcome” from Moana go platinum again – or, at least, that’s what Dwayne is convinced of.

Over the weekend, Dwayne celebrated the news on his Instagram and his thank yous, Tiana (nicknamed Tia) gets a big one.

“A huge daddy thank you to the real reason this song is 4Xs Platinum and growing – my 2 year old boss, Baby Tia who LOVES hearing me sing this song to her, but has no idea Iโ€™m actually, Maui – which kinda makes this whole thing that much more awesome,” he wrote.

Back in April, Dwayne shared another sweet video of him and Tiana watching the movie, in which he stars as demigod Maui.

A few months later, it seemed that Tiana maybe accepted that her dad was the voice of Maui.

The song going four times platinum means that more than 4 million copies of the single, which was written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, have been sold.

Dwayne added at the end of his thank yous, “And one last thing…Youโ€™re welcome… and thank you ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ.”

Just recently, Moana star Auli’i Cravalho reflected on her time as the powerful Disney character. See what she shared here…
