Vin Diesel has paid tribute to his ‘Fast and Furious 7’ co-star Paul Walker in an unexpected way, breaking into song mid-interview.
Paul died in a car accident in 2013, while the movie was still being made, and the resulting film is a fitting tribute to the star.
Vin and Paul were close friends as well as co-stars
As you'd expect, its cast have discussed Paul on a number of occasions during their on-going promotional tour, and while showing a reporter the emotional tribute track 'See You Again', Vin ends up singing a few lines.
The ‘Fast And Furious 7’ cast have paid their respects to their co-star often, and in an emotional featurette that was released last month, Vin and Michelle Rodriguez explained the emotional effect Paul’s death has had on them.
Speaking of the latest ‘Fast And Furious’ installment, Michelle stated: “It’s a legacy. You get to say goodbye to somebody very, very special. I think all the fans are going to feel good that there’s a respect there.”
Vin has also revealed that he named his new baby daughter Pauline, after his co-star.
Since its release earlier this week, Wiz Khalifa’s official ‘See You Again’ video, featuring Charlie Puth, has racked up over 12 million views on YouTube.
