Vin Diesel: 'Publicists Couldn't Handle the Pace of Fast & Furious'
Vin Diesel's former publicists couldn't handle the sudden success of his new Fast & Furious film - and fired him, according to the action star.
42 West bosses reportedly parted company with the XXX star after he arrived four hours late to a press junket in Los Angeles on the eve of the film's release last week (ends-03-Apr-09), but the actor insists there was more to it than that.
I think the publicists were so overwhelmed, with so much going on, they just cracked. They freaked out.

Diesel & Cohen To Return For XXX3…Oh Joy!

So following next years enexplicably titled Fast And Furious, the gorilla known as Vin Diesel will return to the Bond knock off and ultimate cheese-fest known as XXX, in XXX: The Return Of Xander Cage, snappy title that!

Vin Diesel’s daughter is named…
Unbeknownst to me, Vin Diesel is a very private guy. I’d have thought the action star to be a little more brazen all around, but it turns out when it comes to his private life he doesn’t say much.
Vin and model girlfriend Paloma Jimenez welcomed their first child on April 2, 2008. Only now, nearly 6 months later, are we learning her name! The little girl’s name is Hania Riley, but no word still on if her last name is Vincent (like Vin’s real name: Mark Sinclair Vincent).
