Vin Diesel, is stunned with his sex symbol status - because he makes no effort to gain female admirers.

The star of The Fast And The Furious, admits that, despite his past days of working hard to attract the attentions of females, he's still shocked that he's gained such a gathering of fans.

He says, "I never thought of myself as a sex symbol, and it's the one claim that kind of makes me blush. It feels so bizarre, because I've always been an extrovert, I've always worked to get any attention or admiration. So it's bizarre to be charged with these things without having to work for it. But it's very, very flattering."
