Model Vittoria Ceretti gave a rare interview detailing her relationship with Hollywood A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio.
The Italian model, 26, has been romantically linked to DiCaprio, 50, since August 2023. She shared some tidbits about their relationship in a new cover story interview for <a href="https://www.vogue.fr/article/interview-vittoria-ceretti-vogue-france-avril-2025">Vogue France&#8217;s</a> April 2025 issue, per the translated version of the original article in French.
When asked how the couple met, Ceretti replied, “In Milan. But I prefer not to go into details.” The model confirmed that she had seen the massively popular film “Titanic” (1997), which DiCaprio starred in. “Who hasn&#8217;t seen it? Or didn&#8217;t like it? It&#8217;s an iconic film,” she answered.
Next, Ceretti revealed the “annoying” thing about dating someone as famous as her current boyfriend. “As soon as you&#8217;re in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become ‘girlfriend of’—or ‘boyfriend of,’ for that matter. And that can be extremely annoying,” she told the outlet. 
“Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so&#8217;s girlfriend who was so-and-so&#8217;s ex. So it&#8217;s not nice to think that you can&#8217;t love whoever you want, because of the labels people need to stick on you,” she added.
When the interviewer mentioned how difficult it must be to date “one of the most desired people in the world,” Ceretti responded, “It&#8217;s something you learn. If what you&#8217;re experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there&#8217;s no reason to be alarmed. Because love protects and gives confidence.”
The interviewer noted that Ceretti gave a “big smile of relief” after he stopped asking “boyfriend questions.”
DiCaprio has never been married and is known for dating much younger models. He’s been romantically linked to Gisele Bündchen, Gigi Hadid, and Camila Morrone, among others, and all of these relationships have been kept very private.
There’s been a joke circulating about how the actor refuses to date women older than 25. DiCaprio seemingly broke his own rule by staying with Ceretti after she <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/leonardo-dicaprio-breaks-dating-rule-1909560">turned 26</a> last June, as many people pointed out on social media.

Relationships

U.S.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kate-winslet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kate Winslet</a> decided to kiss and tell when it comes to her “Titanic” costar Leonardo DiCaprio, admitting that as romantic as their onscreen kiss looked, it was “not all it’s cracked up to be.&#8221;
During an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9Z4caCa2yw">Vanity Fair</a>, the 48-year-old actress reflected on her time working on James Cameron’s monster 1997 hit and all that went into the actors&#8217; famous scene “flying” on the bow of the ship.
“My God, he’s quite the romancer, isn’t he? No wonder every young girl in the world wanted to be kissed by Leonardo DiCaprio,&#8221; Winslet said. &#8220;It was not all it’s cracked up to be.&#8221;
Winslet said DiCaprio wasn’t all to blame and said it was a “mess” trying to get the shot, because her dress was so tight she could barely breath, with “her boobs practically up to her chin.” She also recalled having to climb a ladder to make the scene work where she said hair and makeup couldn’t reach them, so she said she had to carry makeup in her clothing and do touchups between takes.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Kate Winslet Rewatches Titanic, Eternal Sunshine, The Regime &amp; More | Vanity Fair" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/q9Z4caCa2yw?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&#8220;This was a nightmare shooting this,” Winslet told the outlet. &#8220;Leo couldn’t stop laughing, and we had to reshoot this about four times because [James Cameron] wanted a very specific light for this, obviously, and the sunsets kept changing where we were.&#8221;
&#8220;We kept doing this kiss, and I’ve got a lot of pale makeup on, and I would have to do our makeup checks — on both of us, between takes — and I would end up looking as though I’d been sucking a caramel chocolate bar after each take because his makeup would come off on me,&#8221; she added. &#8220;And he just looked like there was a bit missing from his face because there was this big pale bit from all my makeup getting onto him.&#8221;

Despite the numerous takes it took to get the shot the way Cameron wanted it and all they had to endure, she’s “very proud of it.”
“Because I feel that it is that film that just keeps giving,&#8221; Winslet said. &#8220;Whole other generations of people are discovering the film or seeing it for the first time and there’s something extraordinary about that.&#8221;
In a recent interview, the superstar actress admitted all the fame she got after appearing in “Titanic” was “horrible.&#8221;
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/movies">Winslet</a> made the remarks during an <a href="https://www.net-a-porter.com/en-gb/porter/article-f46bd8ada94c36de/cover-stories/cover-stories/kate-winslet?cm_mmc=LinkshareUS-_-tv2R4u9rImY-_-Custom-_-LinkBuilder&amp;utm_source=rakuten&amp;utm_medium=affiliation&amp;utm_campaign=US_3157217&amp;utm_content=US_Skimlinks+%28Variable+Pricing%29&amp;utm_term=tv2R4u9rImY-1.qGeV0thxdLB3mXPtacxA&amp;ranMID=24449&amp;ranEAID=tv2R4u9rImY&amp;ranSiteID=tv2R4u9rImY-1.qGeV0thxdLB3mXPtacxA&amp;siteID=tv2R4u9rImY-1.qGeV0thxdLB3mXPtacxA&amp;linkshare_siteID=tv2R4u9rImY-1.qGeV0thxdLB3mXPtacxA&amp;linkshare_affiliate_mid=24449">interview</a> with Porter. “I felt like I had to look a certain way, or be a certain thing, and because media intrusion was so significant at that time, my life was quite unpleasant,” the actress told the outlet.
“Journalists would always say, ‘After Titanic, you could have done anything and yet you chose to do these small things’ … and I was like, ‘Yeah, you bet your life I did! Because, guess what, being famous was horrible,’” she added.

Actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">Timothée Chalamet</a> said there’s one situation where he’d consider signing on for a superhero movie despite <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/leonardo-dicaprio">Leonardo DiCaprio</a>’s advice to avoid them.
Chalamet made headlines in 2022 upon sharing that DiCaprio had given him some words of wisdom for succeeding in Hollywood, saying, “No hard drugs and no <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/superheroes">superhero</a> movies.” The “Wonka” star is reflecting on that now with some more years and experience, admitting that he might have to break those rules.
“Well, Leonardo DiCaprio said to me, ‘No superhero movies, no hard drugs.’ Which I thought was very good,” Chalamet told <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/21/movies/dune-timothee-chalamet-villeneuve.html">The New York Times</a> during a recent interview. “I follow them both! But the movie that made me want to act is a superhero movie, ‘The Dark Knight.’ If the script was great, if the director was great, I’d have to consider it.”
That’s not the first time Chalamet praised Christopher Nolan’s critically acclaimed 2008 drama starring Christian Bale and Heath Ledger. 
“When I was 12 years old, after attending one of my sister Pauline’s [ballet] performances, I petitioned my Mom and grandma to see Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Dark Knight’ with me,” Chalamet said during an awards acceptance speech in 2018, per <a href="https://variety.com/2024/film/news/timothee-chalamet-consider-superhero-movie-script-director-1235922292/">Variety</a>. “We went to AMC Empire 25 in Times Square for a 7:30 screening. I left that theater a changed man, and I’m serious about that. Heath Ledger‘s performance in that film was visceral and viral to me, and I now had the acting bug.”
Chalamet has been a rising star in Hollywood who received nominations for an Academy Award, three Golden Globe Awards, and three BAFTA Film Awards. He made his film debut in “Men, Women, and Children” (2014) and later gained international recognition in the movie “Call Me by Your Name” (2017), which also earned the actor a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor. 
The celeb also appeared in “Lady Bird” (2017), “Little Women” (2019), “Beautiful Boy” (2018), and played a young cannibal in the horror film “Bones and All” (2022).

He had a supporting role in Nolan’s “Interstellar” and starred in “Wonka” (2023), which earned more than $600 million worldwide. The 28-year-old also starred in “Dune” (2021) and will follow that up with “Dune: Part Two,” which hits theaters on March 1.

Iconic movie director <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/martin-scorsese">Martin Scorsese</a> said his first time working with both <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/leonardo-dicaprio">Leonardo DiCaprio</a> and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/robert-de-niro">Robert De Niro</a> on the same project caused some friction.
The trio of greats teamed up for Scorsese’s newest <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/watch/movies">film</a>, an American Western crime drama called “Killers of the Flower Moon.” The Academy Award-winning filmmaker said in a recent <a href="https://www.wsj.com/style/martin-scorsese-killers-flower-moon-b4989f0c">profile</a> by The Wall Street Journal Magazine that the two actors didn’t always get along on set.
It all had to do with DiCaprio’s tendency to talk a lot during his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment">improv performances</a>. &#8220;Every now and then, Bob and I would look at each other and roll our eyes a little bit,&#8221; Scorsese told the outlet. &#8220;And we&#8217;d tell [DiCaprio], &#8216;You don&#8217;t need that dialogue.'&#8221;
The director highlighted the difference between the two men, saying DiCaprio’s talking was &#8220;endless, endless, endless!&#8221; while De Niro &#8220;didn&#8217;t want to talk.&#8221;
Scorsese has touched on this before, but insisted that both actors complemented each other.
&#8220;I found I could work with [Leo] if I talked with him a lot,&#8221; Scorsese told reporters at a press conference in early October, per <a href="https://ew.com/movies/killers-of-the-flower-moon-exclusive-clip-robert-de-niro-leonardo-dicaprio/">Entertainment Weekly</a>. &#8220;His method for me is a method of constant conversation, constant exploration. With De Niro, it&#8217;s a little different. Yes, there&#8217;s talking, but then there&#8217;s quiet.&#8221; 
He said this was actually a good thing, insisting that &#8220;the two together played off each other so beautifully.”
&#8220;When Leo and I started to work together, I discovered we had similar sensibilities that Bob and I had,&#8221; Scorsese added. &#8220;He was also brave enough to go to places the way that Bob would — difficult places. [He had] a fearlessness about performing and trying anything.&#8221;

“Killers of the Flower Moon” is set in 1920s Oklahoma and explores America’s interactions with indigenous people at the time. It follows a string of murders, dubbed the “Reign of Terror,” of members of the Osage Nation. DiCaprio plays Ernest Burkhart, a World War I veteran, while De Niro portrays his uncle, Oklahoma businessman William Hale. 
Though the three Hollywood legends have never worked together before, this is Scorsese’s tenth film with De Niro and his sixth with DiCaprio. De Niro and DiCaprio also appeared in movies together several times, beginning with “This Boy’s Life” in (1993).
“Killer of the Flower Moon” premieres on Friday.

A-list actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/leonardo-dicaprio">Leonardo DiCaprio</a> took the stand in the federal trial against recording artist Prakazrel “Pras” Michel, a founding member of the Fugees, who stands accused of funneling money into former president <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/barack-obama">Barack Obama</a>’s re-election campaign in 2012.
DiCaprio, 48, used to associate with the fugitive Malaysian financier Jho Low, who allegedly gave the money to Michel to donate to the campaign through shell accounts. Michel is <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/leonardo-dicaprio-testifies-fugees-rapper-trial-saying-team-vetted-wol-rcna77911">accused</a> of conspiring to make <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/election-fraud">illegal campaign contributions</a> using foreign money, witness tampering, and failure to register as a foreign agent of the Chinese government.
The actor, who was on the stand for about an hour, said he thought Low was “sort of a prodigy in the business world and ultra-successful.”
Low apparently told the actor he planned to contribute funds to the campaign. “It was a significant sum — something to the tune of $20-30 million,” DiCaprio said in court on Monday. “I said, ‘Wow that’s a lot of money!’”
DiCaprio was connected with Low for years. The financier also helped fund the actor’s film “The Wolf of Wall Street,” which earned him a Golden Globe for Best Actor. DiCaprio often partied with Low, accompanying him on private jets to events where Michel was sometimes present as well, he said.
Michel was selected to facilitate the donations because Low could not legally do so as a foreigner, per United States election laws. Prosecutors charged Michel with accepting tens of millions of dollars to lobby the government on behalf of Low and the Chinese government. 
Low stands accused of embezzling a whopping $4.5 billion from Malaysia’s state investment fund known as 1MDB, <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/04/03/leonardo-dicaprio-testifies-in-fugees-lobbying-trial-that-financier-jho-low-tried-to-funnel-30m-to-obama/">per</a> The New York Post.
Other witnesses also testified that Michel wired them thousands of dollars and requested that they make shadow donations to Obama’s campaign, the Post noted. Michel was allegedly paid $70 million for his efforts.

Michel and Low are also accused of lobbying the Trump administration, on behalf of Beijing, to extradite a Chinese dissident living in America, per <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/leonardo-dicaprio-testifies-fugees-rapper-trial-saying-team-vetted-wol-rcna77911">NBC News</a>.
Michel pleaded not guilty to all charges. The most serious charge carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison.

Actor <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/the-world-was-sideways-brendan-fraser-explains-how-he-almost-died-filming-the-mummy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brendan Fraser</a> revealed the five words he once said to a teenaged Leonardo DiCaprio — back when he had just finished filming his breakout role in &#8220;School Ties&#8221; and DiCaprio had just finished with &#8220;What&#8217;s Eating Gilbert Grape?&#8221;
<a href="https://dailywire.com/news/an-element-of-self-sacrifice-brendan-fraser-says-he-took-on-dangerous-stunts-because-he-felt-he-deserved-a-beating/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fraser</a> — nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for his most recent role in Darren Aronofsky&#8217;s &#8220;The Whale&#8221; — sat down with <a href="https://www.gq.com/story/brendan-fraser-men-of-the-year-cover-2022?utm_social-type=owned&amp;utm_brand=gq&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter&amp;mbid=social_twitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GQ Magazine</a> to discuss his trajectory in Hollywood, and he recalled two brief meetings with the &#8220;Titanic&#8221; star.
The first meeting took place, Fraser recalled, &#8220;when he was I think probably all of, I don’t know, 17, 16 maybe, he did Gilbert &#8216;Grape.&#8217; I saw it on the Paramount lot.&#8221;
DiCaprio earned <a href="https://gamerant.com/leonardo-dicaprio-best-roles-earliest-whats-eating-gilbert-grape/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rave reviews</a> for his complex portrayal of Arnie in that film, the mentally impaired younger brother to Johnny Depp&#8217;s titular character — who spends much of the film getting himself into dangerous situations — and the son of an overweight mother who refused to leave their home. He was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for the role.
Fraser, who was just a few years older than DiCaprio, was among the many who took notice of the young actor&#8217;s ability.
&#8220;I think I had just been in &#8216;School Ties&#8217; or something then, and I was, like, flummoxed but I just wanted to tell him, &#8216;Hear, hear. That was incredible,'&#8221; Fraser explained.
It wasn&#8217;t until years later, when the two happened to cross paths again while filming Martin Scorcese&#8217;s &#8220;Killers of the Flower Moon&#8221; — which also stars Robert De Niro and is slated for release in May of 2023 — that Fraser was reminded of that first meeting. DiCaprio, he explained, remembered exactly what he had said all those years ago and said it back to him.
&#8220;He repeated that to me. He remembered me,&#8221; Fraser said. &#8220;He said, &#8216;You were the only guy who didn’t treat me like a little kid.&#8217; He volunteered that to me. That was meaningful.&#8221;

Newly released <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/fbi">FBI</a> documents show that federal law enforcement officials grilled Hollywood celebrities Leonardo DiCaprio and Kim Kardashian over their connections to a man at the center of a massive foreign fraud scandal who is now in hiding in communist China.
The scandal is the multi-billion dollar graft scandal at state-fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) that resulted in former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak being sent to prison last year for more than a decade.
Malaysian financier Jho Low helped start the fund in 2009 to allegedly promote economic development for the Asian nation, Reuters <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/malaysias-ex-pm-najib-multi-billion-dollar-1mdb-scandal-2022-08-23/">reported</a>. The report said that the scandal erupted into the largest kleptocracy investigation ever conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice with at least $4.5 billion stolen from the public fund and moved into offshore accounts with billions more still not accounted for. Malaysia says that Low, who is on the run from U.S. authorities, is hiding in China.
Federal authorities — including FBI agents, IRS officials, and DOJ prosecutors — interviewed <a href="https://assets.bwbx.io/documents/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/rqXik3s0O4O4/v0">DiCaprio</a> in April 2018 and <a href="https://assets.bwbx.io/documents/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/rUYzz.ixoF7A/v0">Kardashian</a> in 2019 over their ties to Low, who sought to boost his credibility and image by associating with and giving large financial gifts to some of the world&#8217;s biggest stars.
Low financed DiCaprio&#8217;s hit 2013 movie &#8220;Wolf of Wall Street&#8221; after the two met at a nightclub, Bloomberg News <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2023-03-02/leonardo-dicaprio-kim-kardashian-grilled-for-1mdb-secrets-fbi-documents-show">reported</a>. When presented with past communications that he had with Low, including emails, DiCaprio claimed that he did not remember writing the messages and that they didn&#8217;t sound like something that he would write.
DiCaprio and Low worked together of a variety of business ventures and Low continued to contact DiCaprio even after federal authorities announced that they were seizing his assets. The two men were reportedly so close that their mothers met.
Low and Kardashian first got connected when he paid her $50,000 to appear at a red carpet event in Las Vegas in 2009. Eventually the two partied and gambled together frequently, including an awkward incident where he gifted her hundreds of thousands of dollars of chips after she stayed up and gambled with him in Las Vegas. Kardashian walked out of the casino with a trash bag containing roughly $250,000 in cash.
“Kardashian put the trash bag full of cash in her carry-on bag and boarded a Southwest Airlines flight back to Los Angeles,” FBI agents wrote. She later collected the other $100,000 in cash from the remaining chips that she had after she returned to Las Vegas during a later trip.

There’s been a lot of outrage over the rumors that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/leonardo-dicaprio">Leonardo DiCaprio</a>, 48, is <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/relationships">dating</a> a 19-year-old.
Fans have been keeping a close eye on the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment">actor</a> since he broke up with model Camila Morrone shortly after her 25th birthday. It seemed that everyone was joking that DiCaprio had a strict age cap when it came to dating, no matter how old he got. To date, he’s reportedly never seriously dated any woman older than 25.
Those jokes took a serious turn last week when DiCaprio was spotted with Israeli model Eden Polani at a Los Angeles release party for Ebony Riley’s new EP, per <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stephaniesoteriou/leonardo-dicaprio-eden-polani-david-harbour-age-gap">Buzzfeed News</a>. 
Now social media users are reacting strongly to the idea of these two dating, pointing out how significant the 29-year age gap really is. But just as many people argue that 19-year-olds should be free to date who they want, and that any young woman dating a millionaire celebrity might be using him, too.
“Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend is so young her high school experience was interrupted by COVID 19,” one viral <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@samehoodies/video/7197084535329180933">TikTok</a> reaction says.
Another TikTok user opted for an analogy with “The Last Of Us” stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsay.
“If you want to grasp that age gap a little bit more by seeing it in different people here you go, they’re 19, he’s 47,” the social media user said, sharing a photo of the actors together. “Leo’s girlfriend is 19, Leo is 48. It’s off by one year but it just really shows how f***ing nasty that is.&#8221;
Viewers in the comments also pointed out that the age gap between DiCaprio and Polani is the same as the one between David Harbour and Millie Bobby Brown in “Stranger Things.”
But others defended the relationship, or at the very least, pointed out the hypocrisy of being outraged.
“There seems to be a lot of outrage at Leonardo DiCaprio for &#8216;preying on&#8217; a 19 yr old woman&#8211;but not a peep is said about the woman&#8217;s taking advantage of his success &amp; status,” one Twitter user shared. “Why assume she&#8217;s the one being exploited?”
“Why are people upset that a 19 year old is dating Leonardo DiCaprio when they praise 18 year olds for selling their bodies on onlyfans to ‘get that bag?’ The 19 year old is still getting rich and famous,” another person wrote. 
“Today I learned that Leonardo DiCaprio dating a 19-year-old adult woman is the height of moral evil, mostly from the same people who believe a 4-year-old can consent to gender change,” Daily Wire host Ben Shapiro <a href="https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/1622973658934448130">tweeted</a>.

The Internet Is Divided Over Leonardo DiCaprio Allegedly Dating A 19-Year-Old

Actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lorenzo Lamas</a> isn’t upset about his 23-year-old daughter Victoria hanging out with <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/leonardo-dicaprio" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Leonardo DiCaprio</a>, 48. 
&#8220;I know she likes him very much,&#8221; the actor <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/12/29/lorenzo-lamas-daughter-victoria-smitten-with-leonardo-dicaprio/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> the New York Post after his daughter was spotted leaving a club with DiCaprio. &#8220;I think they met last month. I’m not sure of the circumstances, but that’s what she told me.&#8221;
&#8220;She’s very smitten,&#8221; Lamas continued. &#8220;I told her to treat the relationship like a holiday — just enjoy it as much as you can for as long as it lasts. And if it lasts for more than a typical holiday, great. But if not, then just guard your heart, you know? Because she’s very young.&#8221;
The former <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">soap opera star</a> made a joke about the future of their relationship, if there is one. &#8220;I just told her, you know, absolutely no transatlantic cruises with Leo. Anyway, I’m excited for her. I know that it’s been a while since she’s had a serious relationship … She’s got a big heart, and she tends to give it freely,” he said.
Lamas, 64, shares Victoria and two other daughters with his ex-wife, Playboy Playmate Shauna Sand. The actor has been married five times and has six children. He’s currently dating 37-year-old former model Kenna Scott, per <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/leonardo-dicaprio-has-lorenzo-lamas-daughter-23-smitten-actor-shares-cautionary-tale">Fox News</a>.
DiCaprio has been making headlines after breaking up with actress Camila Morrone just as she turned 25, which inspired a lot of backlash since it seemed the actor refused to date any women older than 25.
Lamas followed up with another interview, saying his daughter isn’t exclusively dating DiCaprio or in any kind of serious relationship.  
The actor said his daughter is &#8220;friends&#8221; with the “Titanic” star and they were together in a &#8220;social environment.”
“They were seen one time in West Hollywood at a club,&#8221; Lamas explained. &#8220;I mean, that is not dating.&#8221;
&#8220;Yeah, smitten, but they’re not dating,” he continued. “She’s fond of him, obviously. But, they’re not dating, and she does not want that out there because that would be really bad. It’d be embarrassing for her if he should happen to read something that said that they’re dating and they’re not.&#8221;
&#8220;They’re just friends, but she is smitten, of course,&#8221; he went on. &#8220;And that was my cautionary tale to her: Just take one step at a time. But as of now, they’re not an item. They’re not exclusive to each other.&#8221;

Lorenzo Lamas Says He's 'Excited' That His 23-Year-Old Daughter Is 'Smitten' With Leonardo DiCaprio, Even Though She's 'Very Young'

Director <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/heres-why-betting-against-avatar-2-and-james-cameron-is-a-mistake/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">James Cameron</a> revealed in a recent interview that Leonardo DiCaprio&#8217;s &#8220;diva-like attitude&#8221; nearly cost him the iconic role of Jack in the 1997 blockbuster &#8220;<a href="https://dailywire.com/news/young-actor-shares-advice-he-got-from-leonardo-dicaprio-early-in-his-career/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Titanic</a>.&#8221;
Cameron, whose newest film — &#8220;Avatar: The Way Of Water&#8221; — is set to be released in theaters on December 16, spoke with GQ about some of his most famous films. &#8220;Titanic,&#8221; which smashed box office records and ultimately <a href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt0120338/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">grossed over $2 billion</a> worldwide, was high on the list — but according to Cameron, things could have been very different.

Cameron explained that his first meeting with <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/thank-you-leo-christian-bale-claims-hes-only-gotten-leonardo-dicaprios-rejects-in-hollywood/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DiCaprio</a> actually went very well — although he noted that he was amused by the fact that all of the women associated with the production suddenly had a reason to be in the room for the actor&#8217;s first appearance.
&#8220;There was a meeting with Leo and there was a screen test with Leo,&#8221; Cameron reflected, adding, &#8220;So the meeting was funny, because I&#8217;m in my conference room waiting to meet an actor, right? And I look around, and all the women in the entire office are in the meeting for some reason. Like, there&#8217;s a female executive producer, okay, fine. But our accountant? You know, why was she in the meeting?&#8221;
Cameron laughed again, saying that he realized as he looked around the room that they had all just wanted to meet DiCaprio.
&#8220;So Leo came in — of course, charmed everybody, myself included,&#8221; Cameron continued, noting that actress Kate Winslet had already been chosen to play the part of Rose. &#8220;And I said, &#8216;Alright, let’s see what your chemistry’s like with Kate.’”
So DiCaprio was asked to come back for a meeting with Winslet, and he agreed — but when he arrived and Cameron asked him to read with her, the &#8220;Romeo + Juliet&#8221; star balked.
&#8220;He said, &#8216;You mean I’m reading?’” Cameron recalled. &#8220;And I said, &#8216;Yeah.&#8217; He said, &#8216;Oh, I don’t read.’”
The &#8220;Avatar&#8221; director&#8217;s response was to immediately thank DiCaprio for his time, at which point Cameron said the actor back-pedaled quickly. &#8220;He said, &#8216;Wait, wait, wait. You mean if I don’t read, I don’t get the part? Just like that?’”
Cameron said his reply was simple: &#8220;I said, &#8216;Oh, yeah. Come on. This is, like, a giant movie that’s gonna take two years of my life … so I’m not gonna f*** it up by making the wrong decision in casting. So you’re gonna read, or you’re not gonna get the part.’”
DiCaprio did read, although Cameron said he did so begrudgingly.
&#8220;Every ounce of his entire being [was] just so negative, right up until I said, &#8216;Action!’” Cameron said, but once he uttered that one word, he said DiCaprio &#8220;turned into Jack.&#8221;
&#8220;All right, he’s the guy,&#8221; Cameron said, noting that &#8220;Kate just lit up&#8221; the moment they began reading together.

‘Titanic’ Director Says ‘Diva-Like Attitude’ Almost Cost Leonardo DiCaprio His Iconic Role

'Titanic' Director Says 'Diva-Like Attitude' Almost Cost Leonardo DiCaprio His Iconic Role

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/christian-bale">Christian Bale</a> claims that many of his successful acting roles in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hollywood">Hollywood</a> are the result of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/leonardo-dicaprio">Leonardo DiCaprio</a> passing on them.
The 48-year-old British actor made the comments during a recent interview with <a href="https://www.gq.com/story/christian-bale-november-cover-interview">GQ</a>. During the conversation, he quipped that, in a sense, he owes DiCaprio his career.
&#8220;Look, to this day, any <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/movies">role</a> that anybody gets, it&#8217;s only because he&#8217;s passed on it beforehand,&#8221; Bale told the publication. &#8220;It doesn&#8217;t matter what anyone tells you. It doesn&#8217;t matter how friendly you are with the directors. All those people that I&#8217;ve worked with multiple times, they all offered every one of those roles to him first.&#8221;
&#8220;So, thank you, Leo, because literally, he gets to choose everything he does,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;And good for him, he&#8217;s phenomenal.&#8221;
Though some actors could become bitter over always being second choice, the “Thor: Love and Thunder” star insists he’s not offended by DiCaprio getting preferential treatment.
&#8220;No,” he said when asked if he was mad about it. “Do you know how grateful I am to get any damn thing? I mean, I can&#8217;t do what he does. &#8230; And he does it magnificently. But I would suspect that almost everybody of similar age to him in Hollywood owes their careers to him passing on whatever project it is.&#8221;
The Academy Award winner recalled one of the most significant instances of taking one of DiCaprio’s rejects. It was for the part of Patrick Bateman in the 2000 thriller “American Psycho,&#8221; which wound up being the role that made Bale a household name.
&#8220;They had paid me the absolute minimum they were legally allowed to pay me,&#8221; he told GQ of the role early in his career. &#8220;I remember one time sitting in the makeup trailer and the makeup artists were laughing at me because I was getting paid less than any of them.&#8221;
Bale went on to say &#8220;nobody&#8221; supported casting him in the movie besides director Mary Harron.
&#8220;They said they would only make it if they could pay me that amount,&#8221; the actor said. &#8220;I was prepping for it when other people were playing the part. I was still prepping for it. And, you know, it moved on. I lost my mind. But I won it back.&#8221;
Bale is well-known for his method acting in Hollywood, a technique which has won him praise but also elicited criticism from colleagues who think he goes too far.

‘Thank You, Leo’: Christian Bale Claims He’s Only Gotten Leonardo DiCaprio’s Rejects In Hollywood

Christian Bale Claims He's Only Gotten Leonardo DiCaprio's Rejects In Hollywood

Christian Bale

Leonardo DiCaprio shocked the world by hanging out with Gigi Hadid, 27, although he has been mocked mercilessly for never dating a woman over the age of 25. The 47-year-old actor probably had something to prove to all his detractors. For him, even a gap of two decades is an improvement over a dating history filled with very young women.
But when it comes to Hollywood romances with huge age gaps, DiCaprio is hardly alone. Celebrities are notorious for going after much younger love interests, a practice that’s common with men but which some women have participated in as well.
<h3>Warren Beatty and Annette Bening – 21 years</h3>
One May-December love story that has stood the test of time is that of actor Warren Beatty, 85, and his wife of 30 years, Annette Bening, 64. The pair may have a 21 year age gap, but they’re largely considered a true Hollywood success story.
Bening <a href="https://parade.com/28108/jeannewolf/0503-annette-bening-mother-child/">told</a> Parade in 2010 that because she’s married to a much older person, &#8220;there are times you just have to address it because you&#8217;re at different stages of life.&#8221;
&#8220;You need a foundation of fundamental love and mutual respect and understanding,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;There are so many different kinds of relationships, so it&#8217;s sort of difficult to define what is considered normal. My husband and I have very similar backgrounds even though we&#8217;re years apart. So there are a lot of things that we basically share.&#8221;
<h3>Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively – 11 years</h3>
Blake Lively is another beautiful blonde who took a turn dating DiCaprio, back when she was the young age of 24. Now the 35-year-old actress just announced she’s pregnant with her fourth child with husband and fellow actor Ryan Reynolds. The pair have been married since 2012.
Their age gap of 11 years is not the biggest on the list, but it is notable that the Canadian born actor has typically opted for younger women. His ex-wife Scarlett Johansson was 8 years his junior.
<h3>Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles – 10 years</h3>
Olivia Wilde is a full decade older than her current paramour Harry Styles. Wilde also has a lot more personal drama currently as she battles ex-fiance of 7 years Jason Sudeikis for custody of their two children. Styles also has a role in Wilde’s new film, “Don’t Worry, Darling,” which has caused even more controversy in the Hollywood community.
The couple began their relationship on the set of the film in 2020 and tried to keep it quiet but failed. Now they’re openly dating and ignoring that large age gap.
Back when he was cast in “Don’t Worry Darling, Wilde, 38, <a href="https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/a35181428/harry-styles-olivia-wilde-relationship-timeline/">said</a> of Styles, 28, 
“To me, he’s very modern, and I hope that this brand of confidence as a male that Harry has—truly devoid of any traces of toxic masculinity—is indicative of his generation and therefore the future of the world. I think he is in many ways championing that, spearheading that.”
“It’s pretty powerful and kind of extraordinary to see someone in his position redefining what it can mean to be a man with confidence,” she continued.
<h3>Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas – 25 years</h3>
Rumors are circulating that Catherine Zeta-Jones, 52, and her husband of 22 years Michael Douglas, 77, have split. But so far nothing is confirmed.
The couple has one of the biggest age gaps in Hollywood but they’re also seen as a shining example of relationship goals. Zeta-Jones and Douglas have addressed their age difference before, if only to say it absolutely doesn’t matter to them.
“My husband is 25 years older than me; that’s not a secret. With any relationship, it wouldn’t be normal if there weren’t any ups and downs,” she <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/catherine-zeta-joness-dream-is-to-eat-nothing-but-desserts-for-the-rest-of-her-life-11617626213">told</a> The Wall Street Journal in 2021.
“The constant is love and respect. We’ve never, ever lost our sense of humor, and we enjoy each other’s company.”
<h3>Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas – 10 years</h3>
It doesn’t seem to bother musician Nick Jonas that his wife, Priyanka Chopra, was born a full decade before he was. Jonas, 30, and his 40-year-old wife even like to tease each other about it. They’ve been married since 2018.
“He showed me how to use TikTok, for example, you know, and I showed him what a successful acting career looks like,” Chopra quipped in 2021, per <a href="https://www.elle.com/culture/celebrities/a38361938/priyanka-chopra-nick-jonas-ten-year-age-gap-roast/">Elle</a>. “I&#8217;m from India, a country rich in culture, in music, in entertainment, so clearly the Jonas Brothers didn&#8217;t make it over there.”
And the jokes didn’t stop there. “One of the things I love about my husband is how much we have in common,” the actress also said. “You know, for instance, we&#8217;re both totally, completely, wholly obsessed — and I mean obsessed — with Nick Jonas. We love Nick Jonas, both of us! He&#8217;s our favorite.”
“I wouldn&#8217;t want to be married to anyone else, guys, I&#8217;m serious,” Chopra explained, per <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-10241191/Priyanka-Chopra-jokes-marry-Chris-Hemsworth-suddenly-single.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=1490">Daily Mail</a>. ”Unless, of course, Chris Hemsworth suddenly became single. Might change things.”
<h3>Alec Baldwin and Hilaria Baldwin – 26 years</h3>
Actor Alec Baldwin was a full-grown adult when his future wife, Hilaria, 38, was born. The pair wed in 2012.
Previously, the “30 Rock” actor was married to fellow actress Kim Basinger from 1993 until 2002.
Of their gap, Baldwin, 63, has said it’s been challenging especially when it comes to how they parent their six children.
“We do not always agree,” he <a href="https://www.today.com/parents/alec-baldwin-says-age-gap-wife-makes-them-parent-differently-t192052">told</a> Today in 2020 on the issue of raising kids. “My wife prevails, if you will, but we do not always agree because I&#8217;m still much older than my wife.”
“My goal wasn&#8217;t to marry a much younger woman,” Baldwin continued. “I met a woman I fell in love with and she was a unique person. &#8230; I come from a time, my dad was a very tough guy, and he would just look at you with that look. &#8230; We were terrified of my dad. He was a really tough guy. With me, my wife lectures me more than my children. My wife is like, &#8216;Don&#8217;t look at them like that, Alec! That look is not good.'&#8221;
&#8220;I hit the jackpot as far as that&#8217;s concerned, because I wound up having a lot of kids with a woman who&#8217;s a great mom,&#8221; he concluded.
<h3>Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart – 22 years</h3>
“Indiana Jones” star Harrison Ford, 80, has been married to a woman more than two decades younger than he is since 2010. The legendary actor wed actress Calista Flockhart, 57, and never worried too much what other people thought about it.
&#8220;It doesn&#8217;t faze me,&#8221; Flockhart <a href="https://us.hellomagazine.com/film/2003/06/13/harrisonford/">told</a> Hello! Magazine in 2003. &#8220;Sometimes I even say, &#8216;Wow, I keep forgetting that he&#8217;s [22] years older than me.&#8217; It doesn&#8217;t factor into our relationship at all.&#8221;
