Is Vin Diesel the new gay icon?

[chuckzk]

I think he's definately going to take the throne on this.

What can we do to expedite this process?

[JoBlo]

Really...what makes you say that?? http://www.joblo.com/ubb/wink.gif

it's vin diesel! he's so hot right now!

[chuckzk]

by this time tomorrow i'll have my first "Vin Diesel: Gay Icon " fan site up. I hope you all do the same.

It's can be our revenge for fifty million in marketing hype.

[Favourite end]

I think Vin Diesel will never be proclaimed "the new gay icon".It`s simply impossible -as if to say two years ago that Russell Crowe would be the new gay icon.Simply impossible.

we need to teach the marketing geniuses not to push this crap on us.

[Reigh Kaufman]

I'm not gay (not protesting, just stating a fact), but if I was Vin Diesel is probably the last man I would want admiring my keister. This is why I chose Jude Law in a previous thread - he's silky! Um...Vin Diesel, new gay icon? That would be a no.

Good luck to anyone who does manage to 'out' him though...You'll need it!

[FeverDog420]

Do I need to remind everyone my reaction when I first saw Boiler Room?

The big lug oozes sex appeal - and how can you not love the name "Vin Diesel"?

Mmm mmm good!!

[chuckzk]

hey joblo....

you know, if a lot of people are talking about this, perhaps you throw up a rumor or two.

[flowrchild]

Ok I know I'm going to piss some people off here, but I just have to say it. I think Vin Diesel is an unattractive meathead who can't act. There, I said it!! **Dodges Bullets*

keep an eye out for press releases from little known "alternative lifestyle organizations"

[ILOVEMOVIESmorethanyou]

Is there anyone here who actually is gay? not on a with hunt or anything, Just curious as to what you oppinions are.
Me being a lesbian my sex icon would have to be either Lucy Liu or Rachel Weizs (something about that accent!!!)

see, i knew it was trew.

[Turtle Club]

So is he going to be in The Fast and The Furious 2 or what, I have seen many different websires say he is not and some ecent TV show and websites say he IS?

[Scarface98.9]

he's not in F&F2. but I don't think he is a gay icon, despite that fur coat in XXX

[FeverDog420]

Y'know, you don't have to be gay to be a gay icon.

[daverallen]

I want an answer from someone who actually knows the right answer. Is Vin Diesel even gay. And a couple more things. He is a terrible actor. Look at the scene in the fast and the furious when he is telling Paul Walker the story of his father's crash. Paaalease. that was ridiculous. And what's with the name Vin? He's too good for Vince or Vincent or Vinny?? This guy is no good. But seriously, is he really gay?? is he?

[Gregorious8]

Vin Diesel is the name he came up with when he was a bouncer.

[mjg 15]

No offense to anyone, but I don't see the purpose of this thread. So what if Vin Diesel is gay? Is that horribly wrong for him to be? I also don't understand your reasoning behind it. So far Joblo and chuckzk have posted to pictures of him to be their evidence. I fail to see the purpose. Lots of movies stars get their pictures taken daily. Does that make them gay? Again, I mean no offense to anyone. I just don't get the point of the discussion.

[Movie_Fan201]

Ok heres my 2 bits... Is vin Gay? not that u have to be gay to be idolized but how often do u see him with chicks? on one of the late shows he was on he talked about taking a bunch of guy "friends" to Europe no mention to chicks? and in the movies when he does score with chicks look at the chicks.. Mivhell Rogredius is a butch, could u find a more manly chick? I have nothing against vin i am a huge fan, he reminds me alot of Willis in the early days sumwhat, ithink the vin is having such a quick rise in popularity is because he is someone guys want to be like, and someone girls want to be with, and when u have that u are star material... and who can't love that voice

[Common Sense Man]

It's not about if he is gay but if he will now be the new gay poster boy, and I think he is well on his way.

Better look out Leo, Vin is coming up from behind, ouch!

Wasn't he in that band, Right Said Fred, he is too sexy!

Vin before the plastic surgery.

To answer your question - yes, there is. And i LOVE Lucy Liu. She is hot, hot, hot.
And there's always Angelina Jolie and Portia de Rossi.

[jetblac]

That fur coat Diesel wore in XXX was so damn hot... reminded me of the coat Sean Combs wore on the cover of RollingStone when he was supposed to star in "any given Sunday"

[MoNsTeR]

you guys are funny. and for that remark about the girls VIN DIESEL had in movies, you can't really blame him, he's not the casting director. and don't blame him about his name, it's not his real one, except VIN does originate from his last name VINCENT. his first name is MARC, unfortunately he hates being called that.

anywho, VIN DIESEL's an AWESOME ACTOR!! for all of ya'll that don't know, he got a role to be written in for him for the movie SAVING PRIVATE RYAN after SPEILBURG saw his indepenant movie MULTI-RACIAL about how he is a struggling actor who can't get into the business because wherever he goes for roles, he can't fit in because he's not either black enough, or the fact he can't speak spanish. he struggles being an actor and jumps through roles trying to figure out who he really is and the importance of his true ethnic background, which he seriously don't know.

FOR ANYONE WHO DOUBTS HIS PERFORMANCE IN MOVIES, SEE MULTI-FACIAL! he directed, produced, wrote and starred in this movie! even though it's a little creepy, since it was filmed in the early 90's and throughout the whole movie, he's in a wifebeater which i think is gay, it shows his true colors!

do your homework before you bash someone you don't know because in the end, you'll sound really ignorant.

//out.

o'yea, about this new gay icon thing which i don't get, i think DIESEL can fill those shoes even though we all know your sexuality doesn't matter to the actor's performance.

i'm not gay(or i don't know it yet) but i think you forgot NATALIE PORTMAN

you can't say she's not hot,can you?

[Triflux]

Vin Diesel gay? There is no proof at all supporting that, he has had many girls in the past he is soo secretive about it he really doesn't speak of it.

Not only this but if he was gay don't you think he would be like Rock Hudson or somethning and flaunt hot ass women????

For some reason there are alot more gays in the movie forums etc... no I am not a bigot I really don't care who's gay as long as its not vin diesel http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

This is the only semi-gay looking pic of vin.

Of course he is the new gay icon. And if he ain't, well he sure should be, because he fits the part. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

[JoBlo]

You don't have to be gay to be a "gay icon". I believe Leo DiCaprio and Jude Law are both big in the gay community, and I think we're all pretty sure that they don't swing the other way. As for Vin, I never thought for a second that he was gay either, and here's more news to back that up from the IMDB (http://us.imdb.com):

"Hollywood muscleman Vin Diesel has managed to win the affections of a TV reporter - while she was interviewing him. The XXX hunk, 35, is reportedly besotted with Entertainment Tonight reporter Maria Menounos - and they began dating after the actor relentlessly chased the former teen beauty. Menounos, 24, a former Massachusetts Teen Usa winner, scored a one-on-one interview with New Yorker Diesel on 29 July. During their chat, the subject of dating came up. She asked Diesel if he was "available." When he said that he was, a pleasantly surprised Menounos reportedly responded, "You are?" before the actor quickly asked if she was single too. A week later, at the 5 August premiere of XXX in Westwood, California, the two met again. A source tells American tabloid the Star, "There were 100 reporters around, but when he saw Maria, they just fell into each other's arms. They were holding hands and whispering to each other. It's obvious something was going on. He then promised he'd see her a day later and I don't remember any other public appearances scheduled for Vin."
