It is the best gift a daughter could ever ask for. The famous face of Hollywood, actor Dwayne Johnson’s daughter Simone Garcia Johnson has been named as the Golden Globe Ambassador for the 75th annual Golden Globe Awards.
"It was surreal and I was immediately so excited. The first person I told was my best friend," Johnson’s daughter said to E! Online
Simone celebrated her 16th birthday last year. The very day she found out she'd been named Golden Globes Ambassador for 2018.
Daughter of Dwayne Johnson and his first wife, Dany Garcia got lucky this year as Johnson is the show’s first Golden Globes Ambassador, a title that used to be called Miss Golden Globe till now. Until now Sylvester Stallone's daughters Scarlet, Sophia and Sistine were the holders of the role.

Simone is not a regular famous dad’s daughter. She is making her mark slowly in the industry and is also involved in various socially conscious activities. She has signed up for modelling in addition to being a full-time student.
Simone is also a proud partner of GlobalGirl, a non-profit organisation which aids economically challenged women with proper opportunities.
Simone published her first book at 11. In her book, she has raised the question of supporting a number of socially conscious causes, including Black Lives Matter, inclusivity in media and the fashion industry. Also, the Time's Up initiative, which was launched by women in Hollywood to combat sexual harassment and gender discrimination.
"I think the biggest social issue young people face today is that we seem to be told that our opinions are often invalid," Simone said, adding: "My advice to my generation would be to continue to fight for things you are passionate about and want to change about the world."
“I’m proud of all the women who are coming together and standing in solidarity because it becomes more than just sexual harassment in Hollywood, but across all different work fields,” she said to Variety.
