EXCLUSIVE: Jonah Hill Says He Was 'Scared S**tless' By Leonardo DiCaprio's Crazed Fan Prank

Jonah Hill knows what it feels like to be on the receiving end of Leonardo DiCaprio's wild sense of humor.

Recently, DiCaprio pranked Hill on a street corner in New York, running up to his Wolf of Wall Street co-star with his phone out, pretending to be a crazed fan and nearly startling his buddy half-to-death.

"It was funny! I was totally taken off guard," Hill, 32, told ET at a screening of his upcoming dramedy, War Dogs. "I was scared sh**tless"

The impromptu prank occurred without either actor knowing it would be caught on camera, and DiCaprio made sure to give his friend a big bear hug after frightening him senseless.

The Revenant star seems to have a wilder side in his personal life than he lets on in front of the cameras. Case in point, when James Corden texted DiCaprio from Jennifer Lopez's phone looking for nightclub suggestions on an episode of "Carpool Karaoke," and the Oscar-winner was quick to respond with recommendations.

The Leo Effect: When DiCaprio talked climate change at the Oscars, people suddenly cared

Do celebrities matter? The answer — modern, big data approaches are showing — is pretty clearly “yes.”

Earlier this year, a team of researchers documented that when Charlie Sheen told the world that he had HIV, media attention to the virus — which had been in long decline — spiked massively.

And now, many of the same researchers are back with another demonstration. They find that when Leonardo DiCaprio used his Oscar speech earlier this year to exhort action on climate change, tweets and Google searches about the topic were enormous and, at least in the case of tweets, appear to have set a new record based on analyses between 2011 and the present.

“A single speech, at a very opportunistic time, at the Oscar ceremony, resulted in the largest increase in public engagement with climate change ever,” says John Ayers of San Diego State University, who completed the work with colleagues from the University of California San Diego, the Santa Fe Institute, and other institutions. Their study was just published in the open access journal PLOS One.

DiCaprio, winning the Oscar for best actor for “The Revenant” on Feb. 28, said this:

Making “The Revenant” was about man’s relationship to the natural world — a world that we collectively felt in 2015 as the hottest year in recorded history. Our production needed to move to the southern tip of this planet just to be able to find snow. Climate change is real, it is happening right now, it is the most urgent threat facing our entire species, and we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating. We need to support leaders around the world who do not speak for the big polluters or the big corporations, but who speak for all of humanity, for the indigenous peoples of the world, for the billions and billions of underprivileged people who will be most affected by this, for our children’s children, and for those people out there whose voices have been drowned out by the politics of greed.

When DiCaprio said this, 34.5 million people were watching.

Ayers and his colleagues used a combination of media coverage searches using the Bloomberg Terminal, Twitter content searches and Google trends search data to examine the consequences. They also closely examined how the public response to this moment compared with past attention to climate change at key times, including during the Paris climate negotiations and the 2015 Earth Day.

They also used a modeling approach to estimate what typical media coverage and social media engagement with the subject of climate change would have been if DiCaprio had not spoken out — what a more “normal” level of attention would be.

The result was that while there was virtually no news media response to DiCaprio (most journalists don’t take their marching orders from celebrities speaking out), the social media and search response was enormous.

“Tweets mentioning climate change or global warming were 636 percent higher than expected the day DiCaprio spoke,” the study finds.

Here’s a figure from the study showing as much, through a comparison of media coverage and tweets about climate change over time:

journal.pone_.0159885.g001.png

The authors add that when DiCaprio spoke, the total number of Tweets that contained the phrases “climate change” or “global warming” “were at the highest recorded value in our database with more than 250,000 tweets on that day.”

And then there were the Google searches. These, too, spiked, so much so that it represented the “third-highest point ever recorded for climate change or global warming on Google trends.”

Here, again, is a chart provided by the authors, showing that the searches often used DiCaprio’s actual words:

journal.pone_.0159885.g002.png

The significance of this, says study author Ayers, is that celebrities speaking out really matters, even if it doesn’t make the traditional news.

“Even though it didn’t get that coverage, speaking up on it can still make a difference, by driving record levels of engagement,” he says.

Ayers adds that with the methods used in the study, it could be possible at some time in the future to actually time further advocacy and engagement campaigns to maximize the impact of a moment such as the DiCaprio speech.

“Imagine if you will that hundreds of leaders came out the next day and piggybacked on this message,” he says. “That’s hypothetical, but with these data, that’s hypothetically possible in the future. We rely entirely on free, publicly available, and real time data.”

More generally, the lesson is that when it comes to waking people up about changes to the planet, it can’t just be climate scientists talking all the time.

“The scientific community must adapt to the 21st century dynamic communication landscape and ready itself for the next opportunity to harness the agents of change,” the study concludes.

Leonardo DiCaprio to Keynote Scottish Business Awards

 

 

Academy Award® winning actor and environmental activist Leonardo DiCaprio was confirmed today to keynote the 2016 Scottish Business Awards on 17 November.

 

Mr. DiCaprio will join Scottish Business Awards chairman Sir Tom Hunter in addressing an audience of over 2,000 people at the UK’s largest business awards dinner. Past keynote speakers have included actor George Clooney, Sir Richard Branson and former U.S. President Bill Clinton.

 

Scottish Business Awards Chairman Sir Tom Hunter said, “Leonardo is not only a famous actor, he is a pioneering environmentalist and committed philanthropist whose charitable work is making a global impact. To have him address our nation’s premier businesses and entrepreneurs is incredibly exciting.”

 

“That the Scottish Business Awards is the largest awards dinner of its kind in the whole of the UK says a lot about the strength and ambition of Scotland’s entrepreneurial community, and 17 November is set to be another very special night,” continued Sir Hunter.

Caught "Suicide Squad" this weekend, and Leo's "Wolf of Wall Street" co-star Margot Robbie hit Harley Quinn out of the park. She stole every scene she was in. While watching, I couldn't help thinking how much Leo would rock a DC Comics or Marvel role. Wonder if he'd ever consider it. "Django Unchained" sort of had this comic book panache. It would be awesome to see him in a well-made fantasy film at some point, especially as the villain. 

@Shandy

He was considered to play Marvel's Captain America (I really don't know if that wasn't just a rumor :p) and to play DCs villian The Riddler ... and in the past Marvel wanted him as Tobey Maguires Spider-Man and Robin in that awful Batman movie with George Clooney. In an interview with shortlist (from 2015) Leo said:

Would you like to play a superhero?

You never know. You never know. They’re getting better and better as far as complex characters in these movies. I haven’t yet. But no, I don’t rule out anything.
