Have you picked a side in the ongoing Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Vin Diesel beef?
I pick The Rock, purely because he looks like a top lad, and it turns out that I'm not alone, because TMZ is reporting that members of production staff from the Fast and Furious 8 are also backing the giant.
More news has come out today about what prompted The Rock to call out his male co-star (Vin) on Monday. In case you missed it, he heaped praise on his female co-stars and the crew and some of the male stars, but then he referred to others as 'candy asses' who make his 'blood boil'.
The theory that the feud was a clash of egos has been floating around for a few days, but now it seems to be pretty one-sided with sources saying that Vin's arrogance was out of control and that The Rock was well-liked and professional on set.

There's also rumours of him criticising his co-stars' acting, but then, as a producer, he's probably well within his rights.
Members of the crew said that Vin regularly turned up half an hour to an hour later to film, because he couldn't be arsed leaving his trailer. I'm sure being an actor is hard work, I mean not actually hard work like mining, but you know, it's probably not as much fun as it seems. Still, there's no need to be a dick about it, is there?
They also claim that he moved the 7am Monday start back to 10am (tbf he's a legend for doing that and I bet they were all made up at the time, so to slag him off now seems a bit harsh).
Come on then, Vin... time to explain yourself.
