(Photo by Johnny Louis/FilmMagic)Johnny Louis—FilmMagic  by [Raisa Bruner](https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/)  ## Raisa Bruner May 22, 2017 7:21 PM UTC Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, everybody’s [favorite _Baywatch_ star](https://www.instagram.com/p/BUSd2c-gTig/) and the [internet’s preferred celebrity](http://time.com/4760266/the-rock-best-moments/), never shies away from a chance to poke fun at himself. That tendency came out in full force when he hosted the weekend’s _Saturday Night Live_ and managed to re-create one of his most iconic moments in pop culture: his fanny pack photo. The picture, of a young Rock decked out in faded jeans, a black turtleneck, and that all-important leather fanny pack, is a favorite of his fandom and of pop culture in general; it pops up often as a [Halloween costume](https://twitter.com/Sethrogen/status/719024176971911170) over the years, for instance. So for his hosting gig, the people tasked with putting together the “bumper” photos that kick off each of the evening’s segments apparently decided to remake the look. And the internet is very much here for the ensuing shots. The Rock really [is on a roll](http://time.com/4773807/the-rock-on-trump-travel-ban/) lately. > [](https://twitter.com/cjzero/status/866155673469538306) > [](https://twitter.com/nathanlonghair/status/866176920534360064) > [](https://twitter.com/cjzero/status/866342948140711936) > [](https://twitter.com/CiaraTranHudson/status/866721761416577024) > [](https://twitter.com/WakeUpSooner/status/866157715059601408) He also took the time to respond to a [meme about him](https://instagram.com/p/BUSd2c-gTig/).
