  • The latest Premiere magazine has this article on Don's Plum. It was made in 1995 as a favor for his aspiring director friend and his other good friend Toby Maguire. Apparently after an argument about whether to turn it into a feature film might be prompted into a law suit against the actors. The article is about one and a half pages with a picture of Leonardo and another actress in a scene.

    News-January 16, 1998

    Man in the Iron Mask (MITIM) will be released on March 13th according to the Leonardo DiCaprio PEOPLE article.
  • About ten people have e-mailed me asking about the autograph. So here is a complete guide to writing to a celebrity(specifically Leonardo DiCaprio):
    Leonardo DiCaprio:
    955 S Carillo Dr.,#300, LA, CA 90048
    Always include a SASE(Self Addressed Stamped Evelope) with 32 cents postage.
    The SASE should be a 9x12 envelope than folded in half.
    Put it into another 9X12 envelope with 32 cents postage on it.
    Include your letter:IMPORTANT:Never have your letter be more than a page long. If it is too long, sometimes the reader doesn't even bother.
    OPTIONAL(but you get better results this way):Include your own 8X10 photo of him.
    (Great idea by B):Include a card, whether it be Valentines,or his birthday, it makes your letter stand out more and you get better results.
    Expect to wait awhile because sometimes if the celebrity doesn't have a personal answerer of fan mail, they could be busy shooting a movie or something.
    Remember that fan mail is not nessasarily first priority on the stars agendas so be patiant. If you have anymore questions e-mail me.

  • Ok I was in the Wawa ( that is a place like 7-11) and I was looking through the magazines when I spotted one of the tabloinds that said " Titanic Hunk Leonardos sexy and wild night" and there was a very weird picture of him( translation: He was drunk) The inside said about how he was in Miami beach in a night club with his friends and he was jumping of of tables and kept grabbing his crotch ( there is a picture of him doing that) All of the women werer grabbing him and cutting in on him when he was dancing. His freinds just said that he was realxing because he has had a tough year with all the working and stuff and just wanted to have a good time. If you are interested in some very weird pics of Leo, look at the Tabloids.
    ---Kath
  • I read somewhere that Leo was "hanging out with the things that really helped River Phoenix and James Belushi." Or something like that, basicly that he was taking drugs.
    --- Adam
  • I heard that the Letterman show with Leo on it is an encore of when he was plugging The Basketball Diaries. Hopefully that isn't true!
    --- Jennifer
  • I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but at www.interbridge.com there is a list of who is going to be on all of the late night talkshows and Leo is not on Letterman's list for next week, in fact, he is slated to show repeats. I like your page a lot, it is a good source of info, keep up the good work.
    ---Anon
  • According to Letterman's official webpage at www.cbs.com, Leonardo isn't on at all next week.
    ---RK
  • Have y'all noticed that the trailer for our beloved "R+J" that's on the "Courage Under Fire" rental tape includes a full-body shot of a wet Romeo coming through Juliet's window that rainy night but this two-second moment of joy does not appear in the movie?? The shot really shows how tall Leonardo is.
    --- Sandra
  • I'm sure you've all seen the Leo PEOPLE, it is great! 13 pictures!!! Now, I suggest we write and e-mail PEOPLE so they know how much we appreciate it... Also, I know there have been two dates given for Leo on Letterman. Just on a guess, I'd go for Wednesday (21st) because he will be in California for the Golden Globes until late and Letterman is in New York! (Just a guess!)
    ---Mina
  • For Christmas (even though this is kinda a delayed response) I got a really cool/long "Titanic" book with some really awesome Leo pics. I also got the Jan. issue of Vanity Fair, and (finally!) "Romeo and Juliet" the movie.
    Also, I have a pretty cool story. I live near D.C., and it was on the news that this guy who works in some mall near here looks EXACTLY like Leo, and so all these people were chasing him around! So, all my time until I heard about this has been spent trying to find this mall!

  • An article about Don's Plum which also has exclusive scenes from the movie!(Of course, if anyone can get those video clips to work please e-mail me). Leo's Other Movie
    For the people who said that Leonardo might be on Letterman. I checked the Late Show site on AOL and they do not have any listing of Leonardo to appear anytime that week.
    --- Lulu
  • for Christmas my friend made me a R+J candle! She got a white pillar candle and glued a picture of R+J kissing on it, with the quote "Star-Crossed Lovers." It was so cool of her, I cried!
    --- Danae
  • I am looking for R&J postcards from magazines from 1996. Does anyone know what magazine had the "love" and "death" postcards? Also, has anyone ordered a back issue of Premiere Oct. 1996? I was just wondering if that offer for back issues was legit.

  • His latest movie is just about to pass the $200 million mark and he graces the cover of this month's Vanity Fair, but pretty young thing Leonardo DiCaprio had yet to find the time and inclination to leave the nest. But now the seems to be changing. The New York Daily News reports that the twenty- three-old Titanic star has finally moved out of the modest home he sharred with his mother, Irmalin DiCaprio. The paper says that DiCaprio is currently keeping company with supermodel Amber Valleta, although their respective reps claim the two beautiful people are just friends. (from CNN ShowBiz Today)

  • According to Seventeen online: They asked who was everyones dream co-star?
    -- Who's Claire Danes' dream guy? Romeo, uh, I mean, Leonardo DiCaprio. "There's just something about me and Leo," Claire says. "We both recognized it on Romeo and Juliet, and we definitely plan on exploring it further in another movie."
    -- Meanwhile, Leo's pick is based solely on acting ability (what a guy). "I always thought I would have great chemistry with Angelica Huston because she's such a great actress," Leo says. (Sorry, Claire!)

  • Kate Winslet is going to be on the Rosie O'Donnell Show Tues. 1-13-98, and on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno 1-20-98.
    There is an article in the February issue of Seventeen called Love, Celebrity Style. Claire is quoted as saying "I started to listed to Ben Lee's music last year, and I got really in to it. We started talking on the hone and exchanging faxes. Then my 18th birthday rolled around: My friend Winona Ryder sends someone into my house, where this huge party is going on, [to tell me] I'm wanted outside. So I get out there and Ben is standing in my driveway. I am like, 'Oh, my God! It's Ben!' He takes his hand from behind his back and gives me one perfect rose."

  • I just saw Titanic for the 5th time and there was a preview for MITIM before. It was funny cause in the preview Leo was talking to a man and the man says, "You have 100s of beautiful women around you, but do you love them?" and Leo goes, "Quite frequently actually,"... there are three pictures of Leo in the Febuary issue of 'Teen People' (one from MITIM) and one in 'People Weekly'.
    ---D@N@
  • On the radio, the story of Leo saving that woman's life was on! It also said that he introduced himself and everything and now they are lookin for the woman to interview her but no one can find her. Also on ET they talked to Kate Winslet about kissing Leo and she said they taped the first kiss scene 4 times and by the 4th time they both were saying "we can't kiss each other anymore!!" and there was some other things she said.

  • There is a new book coming out about Leo called 'The Leonardo DiCaprio Album', it's by Brian K Robb. In the book it says Leos's dad encouraged him to have sex at age six, and his father would show him porn magazines. Also, about how Leo was almost killed in 1996 in a parachute jump. The book talks about Leo's whole life. It will be released some time early this year.

  • For Christmas this year I saw "Titanic" (again). My sister bought me a huge Leo calender, and my aunt got me an autographed picture of him. It's so cool! I also finished off my leo collage, which is amazing and HUGE, and my friend got me a huge poster, which is like 3' by 2'. My dad bought me the Vanity Fair with a huge article on him, and somehow managed to find the Premier magazine with the R&J article, which I loved so much last year, and then I lost it. With XMas money I bought the R&J video, which I have rented like ten times, and saw in the theaters 4 times, but only cried the first two times I saw it. I cried this time, because of "Titanic." Has anyone realized that he almost dies in every movie? Critters 3 he got shot with a poison dart thing, but made it. Poison Ivy he has a murdering live in babysitter. This Boy's Life he has an abusive step-father. I haven't seen The Quick and the Dead, but I read that he dies. BBD he barely recovered from drugs, and since then every movie except for Marvin's Room he's pushin' up daisies. Call me obsessed, but why can't he live every once in awhile?

  • I just got an autograph from Leonardo DiCaprio! I sent it in November a couple days before his birthday. I included of course a SASE and my letter along with a birthday card wishing him happy birthday and I actually finally got a response back! It was a b/w photo of him saying "Thanks for the card! -Leonardo DiCaprio.

  • I received many things this Christmas, but the best one was a ring. Yes, somehow, my mother found one that looks exactly like the one in the movie... I can't say any stores where it is available, because it was just at one of those permenant stands in the mall that specially makes all their own jewelery. It was so perfect... I think I'll get it engraved for my birthday and save it for a while...
    ---Abbs
  • Does anyone watch Sunset Beach? A few days ago, they were in this big empty house on a deserted island & they're talking about it being haunted & all these murders & stuff. Then, they all decide to split up & explore the house. So Casey says "Hey, remember what the guy said in Scream- never never say you'll be right be." And then everyone said "because you'll never be back again!" So maybe they didn't quote it exactly, but it was still cool! Just thought I'd share that with everyone... : )

  • I fell in love with this production in ninth grade some sixteen years ago, and just this Christmas received as a present a copy of the video. I think John McEnery is the best, and was researching him, which brought me to your page.
    I just wanted to let you know he can be seen in the early eighties production of "Nicholas Nickelby" by the Royal Shakespear Company. I would love to contact him just to let him know what a great actor I think he is.
