The Rock: "I Hate Hollywood"  9/16/06

Action man Dwayne "The Rock" chooses to live far away from Hollywood because there's too many "a**holes" in Tinseltown.

The former wrestler calls Davy, Florida home because he likes to live his life without running into movie industry idiots.

He explains, "I'm not running around the streets in Beverly Hills and I'm not eating in those restaurants, looking to be seen or anything like that.

"I come to Los Angeles, go to work and then leave. I go back down to the country town where there's a Dunkin' Donuts on every corner, horses riding around and there's fishing. Those towns are still very real.

"When you meet somebody they're shaking your hand, they're looking you in the eye, there's no BS and there's no pretentiousness.

"For every two good people in Los Angeles there's about 22 a**holes running around."
