Watch Vin Diesel sing Sam Smith's 'Stay With Me'


First, there was the oddly touching karaoke rendition of Rihanna's "Stay." Then came his absolutely silly lip-synced ode to Beyoncé's "Drunk in Love." And now, we have reached peak viral Vin Diesel.
While promoting his role in the upcoming film Guardians of the Galaxy, the internet's favorite lovable jock was cajoled by a British radio host into busting out a half-mumbled, register-switching version of Sam Smith's ballad "Stay With Me" on the air. "Have you done karaoke?" the host asks, as Vin Diesel continues to stall before launching into the song. Once Diesel gets into it, however, it seems like he can't stop. Watch the full video, replete with silly banter, below (the actual singing starts around 3:25). --Samantha Rollins
