Video of Vin Diesel's 'creepy' behavior towards female interviewer resurfaces amid lawsuit
Vin Diesel, the acclaimed actor from the "Fast and Furious" series, has recently been embroiled in controversy following the resurfacing of a video that captured his unsettling behavior towards a female interviewer. This comes amid a lawsuit filed against him by his former assistant, Asta Jonasson.
Jonasson, who was employed by Diesel's company One Race during the filming of "Fast Five" in Atlanta, has brought forth allegations of sexual assault against the actor, whose real name is Mark Sinclair. The incident is said to have occurred in 2010 at the St. Regis hotel. According to the lawsuit, Diesel allegedly grabbed Jonasson's wrists and pulled her onto a bed. Despite her resistance and pleas for him to stop, he is accused of groping her and attempting to undress her.
In addition to these serious allegations, a video from a 2016 interview with Brazilian journalist Carol Moreira has gained renewed attention. During the interview, which was for the promotion of "XxX," Diesel's comments towards Moreira were overtly flirtatious and made her visibly uncomfortable. He repeatedly remarked on her beauty, calling her "so beautiful" and "so f**king sexy," which disrupted the professional nature of the interview.
The resurfacing of this video alongside the lawsuit paints a troubling picture of Diesel's conduct. The lawsuit alleges a grave violation of personal boundaries and professional conduct, while the interview footage provides a public glimpse into behavior that many have deemed inappropriate. The situation has sparked significant online discussion, with many expressing their discomfort and concern over Diesel's actions.
