Daughtry or Diesel? Mag Can't Tell the Difference

Posted Oct 3rd 2007 10:20AM by TMZ Staff

Has Vin Diesel's movie career fallen so far that he's mistaken for an "American Idol" contestant?

Today's Hollywood Reporter boasts that Diesel and Paul Walker are in talks to reunite for the fourth installment of "The Fast and the Furious." While the print edition showed a pic of Diesel and Walker together, the website put up a pic of "Idol" star Chris Daughtry with Vin's name below it. Nurse!

Makes sense though -- more people saw Chris on "Idol" than Vin in "The Pacifier."

UPDATE: Don't blame THR too much. Turns out if you go to Getty Images and search for Vin Diesel, the first pics that come up are of Chris Daughtry! All bald men really do like alike.

8. Its actually Getty Images fault. If you go to gettyimages.com and do a search for Vin Diesel, the first several results are of "Vin Diesel" at the MTV Awards. Its not Diesel though, its Daughtry.

11. Blame Getty Images. The first 4 images to come up under a search for 'Vin Diesel' are pics of Chris Daughtry at the VMAs. So professional. Although, I wouldn't mind getting caught between those two.... ;)~
