It appears Taylor Swift isn’t the only celebrity who’s feeling generous.
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has made a beautiful gesture by gifting one of his fans their own home.
That fan is UFC fighter Thembo Gorimbo, who had apparently been sleeping on the couch in the gym.
And it was at the gym where The Rock met Gorimbo.
In their first interaction, Gorimbo told The Rock of his struggles and fighting with just $7 to his name.
Clearly, the movie star and WWE legend was moved by his story and decided to cook up a plan.
So, The Rock told Gorimbo he would meet him at his apartment in Miami where they’d also hook up with his friend Jay.
Once Gorimbo got to the pad, though, he soon realized there was no “Jay”.
With framed family photos all over the place, it dawned on him that he was actually standing inside his own home.
“I was so moved by your story,” The Rock told Gorimbo. “When I found out you were sleeping on the couch in the gym – now there’s no more couch sleeping. This is your house. Welcome home!”
“Now you can bring your kids here, man, your family. This place is yours. You don’t have to think about anything. The only thing you think about is your family, getting them over here, getting them with you, training, and becoming a champion.”
Overcome with emotion, Gorimbo thanked The Rock for the act of kindness.

The UFC fighter, who boasts a 1-1 record, also vowed to make Johnson proud as he continues his career, with high hopes of making an even bigger impact moving forward.
“Thank you so much, man,” Gorimbo said. “I will become a champion, trust me. Trust me, you can shake my hand, I will become your champion. Thank you. Thank you so much.”
We’re not crying, you’re crying.
