Vin Diesel is one of the most expensive actors in Hollywood with a series of popular movies. Thanks to his excellent action roles, Vin Diesel has earned hundreds of millions of dollars in his acting career.
However, behind that success, the actor still has hidden corners that few people know about.
Don’t know who the biological father is
Vin Diesel was born in New York City on July 18, 1967 with his fraternal twin brother, Paul. His mother is an astrologer. After giving birth to two children, her son married Irving H. Vincent, an acting teacher.

Vin Diesel grew up without knowing his biological father, and his mother did not tell him much about this father. All I know is that he left when he heard that his mother was pregnant and has not returned since.
At that time, Vi Diesel’s mother wanted to have an abortion, but felt the life of the little creatures in her belly, so she kept the two brothers.
Fortunately, Vin Diesel’s stepfather is a kind man. He worked hard to provide for his family and did not distinguish between his own children and biological children. Without him, Vinh’s mother would not have been able to raise her two grown sons alone.

Until now, Vin Diesel has always considered him as his father, even taking his last name as his stage name (Vince in Vincent).
Being shunned by friends because of his strange appearance
Vin Diesel’s mother has three bloodlines: Scottish, English and German. In an interview, the actor revealed that his biological father is also mixed-race. Vinh humorously talked about his bloodline: “I don’t know how many bloodlines I have in me, I only know that I am a colorful person.”
When he was young, Vin Diesel was often teased by his friends because of his strange appearance.
Unlike his twin brother, Vin Diesel has the skin of a white man, the facial features of a black man, the voice of a person of African descent and the typical curly hair of a South American.
That alone is enough to make Vinh the subject of teasing at school. At that time, the boy Vi was shunned and ostracized by his friends because he did not know what kind of blood he had in his body and his appearance was completely different from other people.

Vinh’s only friend is his twin brother. Even though they don’t have the same appearance, they are always close as one. Because his friends teased him too much, Vinh cut off his curly hair and kept only his bangs throughout his youth.
After cutting his hair, the actor’s appearance improved a lot. Later, he decided to shave off all his hair so that bald head became Vin Diesel’s own brand.
A fulfilling life after unremitting efforts
