Don't sweat it too much JustBill, it's not the first time the Badger has said something stupid or inaccurate.
Uh, actually, I think it is generally well known about Diesel. OK, maybe not that well known, but I asked my son about it and he said - Hell yeah, big time gay, $3 bill and all.
Paloma is what is known in the vernacular as a "beard", and they ended up as a couple shortly after the photo above when another photo of him holding hands with his boyfriend at some Hollyweird function surfaced on the net. About the same time Diesel's career tanked, and he ended up doing voices for video games, kind of a hallmark milestone for a dead-end career. He made a big splash in action flicks, and now is doing video game voice overs? Not exactly an upward trajectory.
Oh, he has a couple things "in production" according to IMDB - just like all of the other washed up actors.
