The Rock had previously opened up about the unusual look while on the Graham Norton Show. "It started with this picture," he explained. "I have this infamous picture of me in my twenties and I was owning this look. I had a turtleneck, I had mom jeans, I was wearing a fanny pack… It's something!" Graham then proceeded to show him snaps of celebrities, including Seth Rogan, Liam Hemsworth and Jeff Goldblum, who dressed up in that same outfit as a joke. The Moana actor also shared the story behind the tissue resting under his elbow, telling the chat show host: "Let me give the audience context. What I had my arm was very dirty so I thought, 'I need a tissue please, to protect the turtleneck.'"
