Vin Diesel sang a tribute to his 'Furious 7' co-star Paul Walker at last night's (12.04.15) MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles.

The 47-year-old star - who attended the event for the first time without his close friend, who died in a car accident in 2013 - walked on stage to Wiz Khalifa's hit, 'See You Again'.

He said: ''The last time I stood on this stage I was with my brother Pablo.

''So I love that little intro you just did with that beautiful song.''

Vin then burst into a verse, singing: ''It's been a long day without you my friend and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again.''

The action star also confirmed an eighth instalment in the 'Fast and Furious' franchise is in the works and will be based in New York, saying it will be a fitting tribute to his friend.

He shared: ''Well, I was trying to keep it close to the vest throughout the release.

''Paul [Walker] used to say that eight was guaranteed. And in some ways, when your brother guarantees something, you sometimes feel like you have to make sure it comes to pass.''
