@LuckyGirl the crowd yelled boo to Leo when he didn't stop by them for a 2nd time after the press conference. People can be so disrespectful sometimes when it comes to celebrities. Like Leo would owe them something and have to be nice to everyone every time.

 

Ewan McGregor for instance told the fans when they acted like dickheads. That was kinda hilarious 😂

 

Leo just ignored them.

@akatoshI wonder the same and actually it reminds me of a story when I met Leo in Berlin. We waited for him before the press conference of SI. He came, he took some time with us, actually he took the most time with the fans. Marty and Michelle followed, did the same. Only Mark Ruffalo was late and said he would come back after the conference. He didn't. No one did after the conference but Leo was the only one who got vocal👎from the crowd when he rushed to his car. And a day later some newspaper wrote how everyone except Leo had spend time with the fans. I was like wtf is wrong with you people??? I mean I was there and Leo hadn't ignored us at all. Since then I rarely believe what I read about him.

 

You should write into Dumoi and share that!!! Love hearing about positive interactions with him!

OMG 😳 Seriously?! He doesn’t have to stop everytime he sees a crowd, this is ridiculous, also how can they be fans who love him and boo to him just because he didn’t stop for them for the second time?! I can’t really imagine booing to him

The time when Leo had to carry the burden of being called "the new" - in this case late River Phoenix who's terribly overrated in my book. Even though I have to admit I liked him in "Running on Empty".

Leonardo DiCaprio Once Felt That Being Called the New River Phoenix Was ‘Total Bulls***’

Leonardo DiCaprio has always been a long admirer of the late River Phoenix. But at the beginning of his rise to megastardom, it was brought to his attention that some were drawing comparisons between him and the late star. Depending on the context of these comparisons, however, DiCaprio wasn’t sure they were a sentiment he agreed with.

Leonardo DiCaprio was determined to avoid the same fate as River Phoenix

As many know, the late River Phoenix died of a drug overdose outside California’s Viper nightclub at the age of 23. DiCaprio wasn’t too much younger than Phoenix at the time of his death. And by the time DiCaprio was 23 himself, he’d become one of the biggest stars in the world thanks to Titanic. In a 2010 interview with Rolling Stone, DiCaprio asserted that he went crazy with his celebrity at such a young age as Phoenix did. But in a different way.

“I got to be wild and nuts, and I didn’t suffer as much as people do now, where they have to play it so safe that they ruin their credibility. I didn’t care what anyone thought. The more people said, ‘Leo’s not working, he’s running around with his friends,’ the more I wanted to do it. The world was our fun playground,” he said.

But he had enough self-awareness at the time to avoid the same fate as Phoenix and his other contemporaries.

“It was, ‘Wow, how lucky are we to not have hung out with that crowd or done those things?’ My two main competitors in the beginning, the blond-haired kids I went to audition with, one hung himself and the other died of a heroin overdose,” he said. “I was never into drugs at all. There aren’t stories of me in a pool of my own vomit in a hotel room on the Hollywood Strip.”

Leonardo DiCaprio once felt being called the new River Phoenix was ‘total bulls***’

One of the reasons DiCaprio might not have ended up like Phoenix was because The Departed star was never big on drugs. Drugs were so prevalent in the neighborhood where DiCaprio grew up in that he had no desire to experiment with them later on.

“Never done it,” DiCaprio once confided to the LA Times. “That’s because I saw this stuff literally every day when I was 3 or 4 years old. So Hollywood was a walk in the park for me…. I’d go to parties and it was there and, yeah, there’s that temptation. Hollywood is a very volatile place where artists come in and they essentially say they want to belong. It’s incredibly vulnerable to be an actor and also get criticism at a young age when you’re formulating who you are. We’ve seen a lot of people fall victim to that, and it’s very unfortunate.”

In a 1995 interview with Movieline, a young Leonardo DiCaprio addressed alleged comparisons between himself and Phoenix. As much as he respected Phoenix at the time, he felt some aspects of the comparisons lacked merit because of their lifestyles.

“If they mean that I was in trouble, that’s total bulls***,” he said. “I’ve always liked River’s work. I’m discounting the drugs and whatever he did in his personal life, because the drugs weren’t who he was. But as far as his acting and as far as who he was as a person, I respected him a lot. I think I’m different from him, but I hope that I can somehow be thought of as someone who is unique and thoughtful, someone whose work will be respected.”

Leonardo DiCaprio didn’t mind being compared to River Phoenix for their acting ability

Although DiCaprio didn’t think his personal life warranted comparisons with Phoenix, the Inception actor didn’t mind being linked to Phoenix based on talent. In a 1995 interview with the Tampa Bay Times, he was confident that the comparisons wouldn’t last too long.

“People are going to see we’re two different people eventually, but the guy was great and I’d rather be compared to him than someone with less talent and less depth,” he said.

After looking 👀 at Old, there's no doubt in my mind that Lee and M. Night Shyamalan should link up soon! 

 

@AnnKos Killers of the Flower Moon is much anticipated.

I'm just gonna scoot some time aside on this lovely Saturday morning (PST) to thank God for His handiwork on Lee, concentrating on those eyeballs...

But I still like his chin most. Thanks, CD, and your references. As for that Twitter post, well, it just slipped in. But I find myself enamoured, immensely enchanted by 2019 Lee. The older he gets, the sexier he becomes. 😋

It's really hard not to find glorious eye pictures of Lee. This process may be endless, but until the forum is overtaken by new pics and theories...I was compelled to post.

Just for the eyes...

Speaking of Lily Gladstone (I'm rooting for her and Austin Butler)

Quote

10 Overdue Actors Who Could Get Their First Oscar Nomination In 2023

8Lily Gladstone - Killers Of The Flower Moon

Leonardo-DiCaprio-and-Lily-Gladstone-in-

Following the critical success of The Irishman, Martin Scorsese reteams with Robert De Niro, this time bringing Leonardo DiCaprio along for the ride. Killers of the Flower Moon, one of the most anticipated films of 2022, will focus on a series of murders in 1920s Oklahoma, committed after the discovery of oil on tribal land.

DiCaprio, De Niro, and co-star Jessie Plemmons are all strong candidates for nominations, as is the film's female lead, Lily Gladstone. The actress received major praise for her breakthrough in Kelly Reichardt's Certain Women, including awards from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association and the Boston Society of Film Critics. Gladstone could be a major contender in the Supporting Actress category, especially with a high-profile project backing her.
