7 Things you never knew about Leonardo DiCaprio

2016 so far has been a pretty big year for Hollywood golden boy Leonardo DiCaprio. Kicking things off to a great start in February by finally bagging an Oscar for his portrayal of frontiersman Hugh Glass in The Revenant, the actor has since been making solid progress on his long quest to fight climate change.

1. He's Basically Kate Winslet's Father

It's common knowledge that Winslet and Leo are still super close, but did you know that in 2012 Leo gave Kate away at her wedding to Ned Rocknroll? Apparently not even her parents were aware of the nuptials!

2. His Oscar Win Almost Broke The Internet

His first ever Oscar win for The Revenant generated 440,000 tweets per minute, making it the most-tweeted Oscar moment of all time.

3. He's A Peachy-Keen Jelly Bean

Leo might look like he's lived the wild life, but apparently he's never taken drugs in his life. For The Wolf Of Wall Street he had to be taught how to act high by drug experts.

4. A Titanic Gesture

On discovering that Millvina Dean, the last remaining survivor of the Titanic, had been forced to sell her memorabilia to pay for her care home, Leo and Kate set up a trust fund so she'd never have to worry about her future again. 

5.His Name Has An Arty Origin

According to reports, when Leo was in utero, his parents were gazing at a Leonardo Da Vinci portrait in Florence, Italy when the bub-to-be first kicked. His father took it as a cosmic sign.

6.Leonardo Dicaprio Property

Leonardo DiCaprio owns two adjacent houses on Oriole Way in the Bird Street section of the Hollywood Hills.

Leo purchased this home in 1999 for $4 million. The house is spread in the area of 4,551-square-foot and was once rented to his actor friend Tobey Maguire. DiCaprio is a supporter of eco-friendly homes and therefore uses sun as his primary source of energy. He has installed large solar panels and uses organic sheets for his bed. The gated property also has city views and was originally built in 1930s, later it was remodeled.
