Vin Diesel is apparently dating a sexy TV presenter he once publicly flirted with as she interviewed him for news show Access Hollywood.

Maria Menounos chose this star as her date when she cheered on her pal Rita Wilson during a recent performance of stage musical Chicago in New York last week.

A source close to Menounos confirmed a relationship, saying, “They’ve been friendly for about a year.”

The 28-year-old Menounos is also an aspiring actress and will star opposite Jamie Kennedy in the upcoming comedy Kickin’ It Old Skoll. She also appears in Jessica Simpson’s new music video “A Public Affair.”

A Menounos pal says that the actress had a long-lasting crush on Vin Diesal and is thrilled with the progression of the relationship.

According to sources, “There’s always been an attraction there. They’re taking it to the next level.”

Well, It looks like we have a front row seat for the next celebrity “love story.” It’s Vin Diesel and Maria Menounos! Ok, if you’re wondering what happened to Vin Diesel, you are not alone. He’s always stated he will not put his personal (private) life out there for all of us to see. He’s just not like that right? He dates only in Europe because evidently no one goes through the celebrity garbage over there. What happened to “don’t date celebrities?” Hey, Vinny, my man! Look who you are dating. Now, I’m not one to critisize because Maria is a nice person but, hey, we all know the “reporter/spokes person” persona is her true calling! Who knows… maybe Vinny can get her acting jobs. She’s a aspiring actress! Who better to get you “in the door” than your boyfriend/fiance’. What ever. Ok, here comes the private life of Mr. Vin Diesel for your enjoyment. That is unless he learns the quote: “off the record baby.” Yo! Vinny… peace out!
