Over the past several days, Vin Diesel has been the victim of body-shaming, while also making it clear that he does not possess a body worthy of shaming.
Not in any way, shape or form.
Last week, social media went bonkers after a photo of the actor smoking in a hotel balcony went viral.
In the widely-circulated image, Diesel is shirtless and looking a bit softer than usual.
Subsequently, while doing press in New York for his new film (The Last Witch Hunter), Diesel said on Instagram that he’s been continually asked about his unseemly “dad bod.”
He then added:
“I am wondering if I should show the picture… Body-shaming is always wrong! What do you think?”
The picture in question is the one featured above, as Diesel makes it clear that he’s in pretty darn good shape after all.
“For those who wanted the show… For all the angels that love dad bod regardless…” the Fast and the Furious star penned as a caption.
Over the past few months, female stars such as Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez have also addressed the topic of body-shaming, donning bikinis in response to their haters.
They received some flak for showing too much skin, but we doubt anyone will say a word here in relation to Diesel’s latest image.
Double standard much, society?
