Titanic Soundtrack 2 Info
About a week before the release of the Titanic video, the second soundtrack, Back to Titanic, will be released featuring more songs composed by James Horner and a remix version of Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On only previously heard on the radio (I'm betting it's the one with all the clips from the movie played throughout the song).
Thanks to 'Hello KitE' for the information

Leo and a pal got so bored recently that just for fun, they started calling radio shrinks to discuss sex problems they concocted...

Leo opening a club???
Apparently there are rumours flying that Leo has been heard saying he wants to open a night club like Johnny Depp! These rumours are further fueled by the fact that Leo himself loves to go clubbing, and believes that it would be a great investment for some of his money!

Is Leo dating Mariah Carey???
TITANIC star Leonardo DiCaprio is apparently, enjoying a secret romance with divorced singer Mariah Carey. The pair have shared candle-lit dinners and nights out in trendy New York clubs, according to a US magazine. A friend claimed: "Mariah is acting like somebody very much in love." But he added that 28-year-old Mariah feared fans might call her a cradle-snatcher over 23-year-old "toy-boy" Leo. The friend said: "Mariah told Leo that if he gives away their secret it will be over."

She convinced him to keep quiet by telling him his teenage fans would turn on him if they found out he was dating an older woman. Now the friend claims the pair spend hours on the phone, planning dates and choosing disguises. The friend said: "She's excited by the secrecy. Mariah wears a cotton-candy blonde wig and Leo wears a big floppy cap." Mariah told friends: "There's a lot more to Leo than I thought. He doesn't come across like a shy kid. He's funny, cool and surprisingly mature." Since rising to fame Leo has already romanced Wonderbra model Eva Herzigova and has also been supposedly linked with Demi Moore and Naomi Campbell!"

Apparently, when Leo visited SANG LAN he brought some sighed posters of him. During a TBS in a couple days ago Sang said that "Leo said some REALLY encourging things to me. He's really nice." Also someone sold a tape of leo entering and leaving the hospital and i think it was sold for about $1500 dollars!!

Also people were talking about leo's plans for that day. It was rumored that he had some plans with some ladies and changed his whole day to be with Sang Lan for that one hour!!

The Heart Goes on and on and on.....
Apparently, before he met Amber Valletta, Helena Christensen, etc., etc.,etc., even before Kristin Zang, Leo loved another girl. John Marshall's 1991 homecoming queen, Jennifer Faus. But she turned him down FLAT!

"He was a very good kisser," says Jennifer, now 23 and married. "He asked me for a date," he accuses him for getting to big for his britches. "But I was worried he was getting too Hollywood so I told him ‘Let’s wait awhile.’ Instead of having a crush on Jennifer, he was crushed.

He (Leo) has been secretly nursing a crushed heart since he was dumped by Jennifer and has been hiding it from fans since.

He admits, "I decided I wanted to be actor so I can be cool and all the girls could see me."

"I don’t believe I’m going to get married," he says, "unless I live with someone for ten or twenty years".
Thanks again Sash for all the great Info!

This is old news, but always good news:
A framed $100 bill with a celebrity's signature and the words: "Darryl, you were right!" on it was swiped from an L.A. agency's office the star in question is none other than hotter than hot 'Leonardo DiCaprio'. The message refereed to Leo when he landed the role in What's Eating Gilbert Grape? It appeared that Leo was told not to take the role by sme other people, but then this agency told him that it was a great idea, so he did it! It sure did paid off, breaking Leo into the world of Showbiz as a serious actor!!
