Leonardo DiCaprio is not a name which requires any version of introduction. I know you are a fan of him as well, even more so after he grabbed Oscars this year after his mind-boggling performance in 'The Revenant'. But you'd be shocked to know that there are certain things about Mr. Dicaprio you'd never heard before.
Let me make you aware of them. Read them now and thank me later.
#1 He never did drugs.
It might appear in the Wolf of Wall Street that he is a party animal but in real life, he has never done drugs.

When she learned that she had to be naked in front of him in the movie, the first thing she did when she met him was to flash him.

Being an environmental activist, Leonardo purchased an island called Blackadore Caye in Belize. The island has suffered from deforestation, overfishing and an eroding coastline.
