Unexpected Things About Oscar Winner Leonardo DiCaprio



#1 Never been high

Leonardo Dicaprio has never been high. He had to be taught how to act like he was high for some roles, like his famous crack 
scene from "The Wolf of Wall Street."



#2 Flashed by Kate Winslet
#4 Named after Leonardo da Vinci
#5 Could have been Patrick Bateman
Kate Winslet wanted to break the ice with Leo after knowing that she would be posing naked in front of him in "Titanic", so she flashed him.

#3 Has his own resort
An environmentalist himself, DiCaprio bought an island called Blackadore Caye in Belize over a decade ago and has been building an eco-friendly resort there, which will open in 2018.


Leo's mom decided to name him Leonardo because when she was pregnant, she felt his first kick while looking at a Leonardo da Vinci's painting in Florence, Italy.


Leo was offered the role of Patrick Bateman in the movie "American Psycho", but negotiations fell through and Christian Bale got the role.


#6 Blocked the release of an indie film
Leonardo DiCaprio was able to prevent Don's plum, an indie film in which he starred, from being released in the US and Canada. Nonetheless, the producer released it over the internet.


#7 Not racist
Leo had a hard time saying so many racial slurs while filming "Django Unchained." Some people say that Samuel Jackson had to pull him aside and tell him "mother fucker, this is just another Tuesday for us."
