Why do I like Vin Diesel? Well we can all agree he is gorgeous (and funny in interviews), but I like (what I know of) the man behind the screen. He's not the typical "Hollywood actor". He is brilliant as an actor/writer/director/producer. This man has proved he is more than just good looks. He has not let the press drown the true person he is aside from all the fame and fortune. He knows where he came from he is not diluted/watered-down, he's real. As a person of mixed heritage I appreciate the fact he wants us to know him because of what talent he has, not what color he is. To me this is what attracted me to him first.
