This Morning We Are All Vin Diesel Dancing Alone To Beyonce
Riddick is #1 on the DVD charts, apparently, and he's in a very good mood.
In the ten hours since Vin Diesel posted this sequel announcement to his Facebook page, this clip — like so many other gems he produces — has been shared 110,000 times, and gotten 500,000 likes.
In the first half Diesel casually lip syncs to Katy Perry’s ‘Dark Horse’, giving himself a couple of shots at the “there’s no going back” line, which he seems to really enjoy. He bobs up and down with all the self-awareness of a 15-year-old in front of a bedroom mirror, while occasionally grabbing at his junk and doing this with his tongue.
“Guys, I’m just excited and happy and shouting out to you guys to say ‘thankyou’. Universal’s just called me and told me that Riddick is #1 on the DVD charts,” he says. “Of course, Universal’s also said that they want to develop the next one!” [“There’s no going back” Juicy J interjects, as if on queue.]
Then, after a small loss of momentum, he has a crack at Beyonce’s ‘Drunk In Love’. He doesn’t know ‘Drunk In Love’ nearly as well as he knows ‘Dark Horse’, but what he lacks in lyrics and enthusiasm he makes up for in two sterling attempts at the “surfboard” part.
He seems to be doing okay.
