Vin Diesel is a dad


Action star Vin Diesel, 40, and his girlfriend, 24 year-old model Paloma Jimenez, had a baby girl on April 2 and are just announcing it now.

Am I the only one who assumed that Vin Diesel was gay? You would think that if he had a steady girlfriend he would bring her to events and paparazzi target restaurants to make it known, but Diesel is a private person and prefers to stay out of the tabloids. Maybe that’s how those rumors that he’s of the other persuasion got started.

Congratulations to Vin and Paloma, and their new arrival. People Magazine notes that Diesel is starring in and producing Fast and Furious, which will be out in June of next year, and that he also has Babylon AD coming out at the end of August.

Here are some pictures of Diesel’s hot girlfriend and the mother of his baby, Paloma Jimenez, who was born in Acapulco, Mexico. [via Fashionmodeldirectory.]
Vin Diesel is shown at One Race Global Film Foundation at The Bellagio on 1/18/08.

    😆

    Seriously, congrats to Vin and his lady.

    Vin does not look or act gay, in my opinion.

    A lot of men are very wary of women these days, and choose to wait until later in life to marry.

    I think Vin got the gay rep because he made a lot of action movies that had a lot of “gay” or homoerotic subtext. Thus, the gays claimed him a few years ago. Of course, the gays claim a lot of straight guys, too. And to be fair to Vin, he doesn’t beep on my gaydar as much as La Cruise.

    Congrats, Vin! 🙂

    Vin got the gay rap because of the gay clubs he used to work at in NY (bouncer). By the way, my friend used to go to one in particular all the time. Vin used to particpate in activites quite happily. It’s common for an actor to all the sudden “straighten” up when they start to get some recognition. I know of one that left his long term bf of 7 years, that he lived with, when his tv show took off. Then all the sudden he got married. We all just shook our heads.

    Damn, she’s the hottest beard to come down the pike in a while.

    He must be really private, I didn’t know he even had a girlfriend…And he didn’t try and pimp pics of the little one..congrats to him and his woman .

    the one that “all of a sudden got married” when his tv show took off: oliver hudson?

  10. Amy says:

    Meh, I don’t see him as gay, either. If anything, he’s hiding his closet geekiness. Vin is an avid Dungeons and Dragons player, LOL!

    Ain’t nothing wrong with D&D, love. I’m a level 10 thief. 😉

    Congrats to Vin and his . . . lady friend? With their powers combined – that child is bound to be beautiful.

  12. countrybabe says:

    She looks all of 24. Here we come with the gay questions again. If he’s bisexual or whatever,he won’t be the first or the last in hollywood.

    hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

  14. angie says:

    But there are no “gay” stories to confirm that he is. All I’ve heard about were the porn-type women that have had affairs with him when they talked about it on Howard Stern. What gay man goes through all of that trouble to SLEEP with a bunch of women to hide his gayness and not show the girl off himself?
    And the clubs he bounced at were gay & straight mixed,like the Tunnell. James St. James who was a gay clubber and knew him in his bouncer days when he was still Mark Vincent thinks he’s straight and remembers the girls he used to sleep with. He said he would have known if one of the “queens’ who were always after Vin/Mark would have finally got him!

    Come on now, this guy is so gay, they say he’s a total bottom. Just watch some of his interviews on you tube, He needs to come out of the closet all ready, in case he does not know it, his career is soooooo over..

  16. sextubelover says:

    Right on! I really was looking for first hand info on porn tubes, thx!

  17. sextubehappy says:

    Man, I will bookmark your blog and take the feeds also, if you don´t mind

  18. Boyporntube says:

    There is obviously a lot to know about tubes

  19. Matt says:

Look at the hispanic chick from that show theres something about miriam and she looked better than this girl

    I usually don’t jump on the “he’s gay, let’s out him” bandwagon (b/c who cares), but I used to live in West Hollywood & my roommate (female) used to go to Vin’s house to watch movies often. She told me first-hand gay/bi accounts.
