Vin Diesel Shuts Down Body-Shamers With 6-Pack Photo: Here’s My ‘Dad Bod’

The best defense is a great offense, as Vin Diesel proved on Sunday.

After the Internet went crazy over unflattering paparazzi pics of the “Furious” franchise star published on Tuesday (really, does anyone look good when photographed from beneath?!), Vin took to Instagram to fire back at body-shamers.

“It is amazing the response from the journalists who I have been talking to for the last two days in New York. Today one wanted to see the dad bod. Haha,” he captioned a photo of himself on Saturday night, after a day of press for “The Last Witch Hunter.” “I am wondering if I should show the picture… Body-shaming is always wrong! What do you think?”

Thankfully for all of us, Vin shared the “dad bod” photo on Sunday.

*Side note: if the following is what 48-year-old dad bod looks like, then we’ve got some adjustments to make on our Tinder settings.

“The pic from yesterday… For those who wanted the show… For all the angels that love dad bod regardless…,” Vin captioned a photo of himself pulling his shirt up to reveal his still-there six-pack. “I will post an exclusive video on my Facebook when I am done with press today.”

We can’t wait to see what Vin has to say later (hopefully it will include more visuals, if you know what we mean…)!
