Leo Scores an African Orphan

 

Following in Angelina's and Madonna's footsteps, Leonardo DiCaprio is jumping on the adopt-a-baby bandwagon. While in South Africa filming "Blood Diamond," according to the New York Post, he met a little girl that he "adopted." Unlike his predecessors, though, Leo won't be bringing home baby. He'll just be cutting a monthly check and checking in by phone.

Mirren, DiCaprio earn 2 SAG nominations

‘Babel,’ ‘Dreamgirls,’ ‘Little Miss Sunshine’ net nods for ensemble acting

 

LOS ANGELES - The ensemble drama “Babel,” the musical “Dreamgirls” and the road-trip tale “Little Miss Sunshine” each earned three nominations Thursday for the Screen Actors Guild Awards, while Leonardo DiCaprio and Helen Mirren both had two nominations.

 

Mirren was nominated for playing both of England’s two Queen Elizabeths, as best actress in a film as the current monarch in “The Queen” and as best actress in a TV movie or miniseries for playing her predecessor in “Elizabeth I.”

 

The TV role earned Mirren an Emmy last fall, while she is considered the favorite to win the best-actress Oscar for “The Queen.”

 

DiCaprio had a lead-actor film nomination as a mercenary hunting a rare gem in the African adventure “Blood Diamond” and a supporting-actor nomination as a cop undercover in a Boston crime gang in “The Departed.”

 

At the upcoming Golden Globes, DiCaprio was nominated as lead actor for both films, but under SAG rules, he was entered in different categories. Oscar voters are free to cast ballots for actors in lead or supporting categories.

 

“Dreamgirls” grabbed supporting nominations for Eddie Murphy as a soul singer and Jennifer Hudson as a vocal powerhouse booted out of a Supremes-like trio. The film also had a slot in the guild’s category for best overall acting ensemble, which includes Jamie Foxx and Beyonce Knowles, who were shut out in the lead-acting nominations.

 

The other ensemble nominees were “Babel,” the Robert Kennedy drama “Bobby,” “The Departed” and “Little Miss Sunshine.”

 

Key cast members from some of those films — among them Jack Nicholson and Matt Damon of “The Departed,” Brad Pitt of “Babel,” and Greg Kinnear, Toni Collette and Steve Carell of “Little Miss Sunshine” — were overlooked for nominations.

 

Carell did score a TV nomination as best actor in a comedy series for “The Office,” which also was among nominees for best comedy ensemble.

 

Another notable snub was Sacha Baron Cohen, who has a Golden Globe nomination as best actor for a comedy or musical for the hit comedy “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan” but was not among guild picks.

 

Cohen’s Oscar-nomination prospects for the outrageous role as a crass, clueless Kazakh journalist remain fuzzy. Oscar voters tend to favor heavyweight dramatic performances over comic turns.

 

Along with Mirren, other likely Oscar favorites and nominees dominated the guild choices, including Forest Whitaker as Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in “The Last King of Scotland” and Peter O’Toole as an aging actor whose lecherous ways are revived by a young woman in “Venus.”

 

The guild also had some surprise nominees, including Ryan Gosling for lead actor as a teacher with a drug problem in the acclaimed but little-seen drama “Half Nelson” and child actor Abigail Breslin for supporting actress as a 7-year-old obsessed with competing in beauty pageants in “Little Miss Sunshine.”

 

Will Smith rounded out the lead-actor field as a homeless dad in “The Pursuit of Happyness.”

 

Cruz nominated for ‘Volver’

 

Joining Mirren for lead-actress nominations were Penelope Cruz as a woman with bizarre family crises in “Volver”; Judi Dench as a scheming teacher in “Notes on a Scandal”; Meryl Streep as the boss from hell in “The Devil Wears Prada”; and Kate Winslet as a woman having an affair with a neighbor in “Little Children.”

 

“Babel” also had supporting-actress nominations for Adriana Barraza as a nanny in peril and Rinko Kikuchi as a deaf schoolgirl. “Little Miss Sunshine” also earned a nomination for Alan Arkin as a foul-mouthed, heroin-snorting grandfather.

 

The guild picks are one of the last major announcements in Hollywood awards season before Academy Awards nominations come out Jan. 23. The Oscars will be presented Feb. 25.

 

Actors guild winners often go on to win Oscars, including three SAG winners from last year: lead performers Philip Seymour Hoffman for “Capote” and Reese Witherspoon for “Walk the Line,” and supporting actress Rachel Weisz for “The Constant Gardener.”

 

Last year’s winner for the guild’s prize for the overall acting ensemble, “Crash,” also went on to win the best-picture Oscar.

 

Awards will be presented Jan. 28 in a ceremony televised on TNT and TBS. Film and TV nominees were chosen by two groups of 2,100 people randomly chosen from the guild’s 120,000 members. The guild’s full membership is eligible to vote for winners.

It's nice he supporting someone like this but why the publicity about it unless it's for award season?

 

Kudos to his nomination for The Departed. I think it's well earned.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on this one - he's never one to self-promote in this way. Maybe he was persuaded that making it public would perhaps show people that this kind of support is possible without actually taking the child out of the country.

 

And congrats on the nominations, Leo!

Leo Likes Free Stuff, In A Big Way

Posted Jan 12th 2007 5:19PM by TMZ Staff

 

Leonardo DiCaprio will take your free stuff, but don't you dare ask for a photo in return!

 

The incident went down at a Golden Globes gift suite on Thursday. At 5:15 PM, Leo entered the suite at the Friars Club in Beverly Hills, which was packed with over 40 vendors offering free items; including jewelry, handbags, shoes and barbecues. Leo's publicist tells TMZ his client was there to support Global Green, an environmental organization that had a booth in the suite.

 

DiCaprio was there with his girlfriend, supermodel Bar Refaeli. Also in tow-- someone carrying two huge empty duffel bags. The drill at this event is for the celebrity to load up on free stuff in exchange for taking photographs with the various vendors. The vendors then use the photos to market their products and everyone wins. But that wasn't the case with Leo.

The Golden Globe double-nominee informed the muckety-muck running the show, that no one was to take his picture. He then 'shopped' til the duffel bag guy dropped, cherrypicking the free stuff without giving anything in return. Leo would ask Bar if she wanted jewelry, and stated that certain handbags would be perfect for his mother.

 

The only snag came when the "Titanic" star was approached by designer-to-the-stars Glenn Laiken. Our spies, who overheard the conversation, say that Laiken, who owns Alandales mens clothing store, told Leo, "I would love to make a custom shirt for you, but I understand you don't want any photos taken." Our sources say that Leo dismissively responded, "We have many other people here to see. I may be back." DiCaprio turned away and never came back to Laiken.

 

Leo's rep insists the star was there to support his environmental cause, and people offered him the free stuff. He also says DiCaprio was told by Global Green that his picture would not be taken. Leo signed dozens- if not a hundred- autographs, which in of itself has market value.

DiCaprio says Scorsese deserves an Oscar

 

Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio said on Thursday that director Martin Scorsese deserved to win an Oscar for his new movie, "The Departed," adding it was a "joke" the veteran director still had not been awarded for any of his works.

 

"It would be wonderful if this film was rewarded, I think it very much deserves it," said DiCaprio, who stars in the crime thriller that won a Golden Globe award for best film this week.

 

"And I certainly think the man to my left does. It's quite long overdue, almost a practical joke at this point that that hasn't happened," he said, referring to Scorsese who was also attending a news conference ahead of the film's opening in Japan this weekend.

 

Despite being regarded by many as a master of cinema, Scorsese has never received an Academy Award for a single film, including for such revered works as "Raging Bull" and "Taxi Driver."

 

In addition to the Golden Globes, the Broadcast Film Critics Association named Scorsese the best director and "The Departed" the best film, raising expectations that he might finally win an Oscar either for best picture or best director.

 

The director said he did not have any expectations about an Academy Award.

 

"I learned a long time ago that, with "Mean Streets" and "Taxi Driver," that you can't make a film to get the golden statue. And if you try it doesn't work."

'Titanic' Made DiCaprio Want To Quit

 

 

Leonardo DiCaprio considered quitting acting after the success of Titanic, because he felt like people were only concerned with his looks. The Departed heartthrob became convinced he was considered nothing more than "another piece of cute meat" after starring alongside Kate Winslet in James Cameron's 1997 blockbuster. But he quickly came to realize that his newfound superstardom would allow him to take on more demanding roles in future, to prove his critics wrong. He says, "It was pretty disheartening to be objectified like that. I wanted to stop acting for a little bit. But it changed my life in a lot of ways, but at the same time, I can't say that it didn't give me opportunities. It made me, for the first time, in control of my career."

LEO'S BAR BAWL

Phone fury may sink DiCaprio's love

Eva Simpson & Caroline Hedley

IT looks like Titanic star Leonardo DiCaprio's romance may have hit an iceberg...

 

He apparently had a big bust-up with his girlfriend - stunning model Bar Rafaeli - on the phone at central London club Aura on Sunday night.

 

The hunky Blood Diamond actor, 32, was seen with head in hands and saying into his mobile: "I've had enough of this."

 

Throughout the evening, Leo - in the UK for the film's premiere - was in a bad mood and not up for partying. Instead, he spent his time at his table, texting furiously.

 

"His friends were having a good time but Leo just sat there looking really glum and texting all night," our source confirms. "Then as they were leaving, Leo's phone rang and he started having a heated conversation."

 

It continued as he left the club and, when he was confronted by the paparazzi, Leo blasted them for taking his picture.

 

"He was like, 'don't you take my picture!' He was clearly in the middle of something and the last thing he needed was flashbulbs going off in his face." Leo has been dating Bar, 21, for almost 12 months, after splitting from Gisele Bundchen.

 

Although they have been trying to keep their affair under wraps, the couple have been spotted on romantic breaks to Paris, Prague and New York. Neither have talked openly about the relationship and when we interviewed Bar recently, a PR warned us: "No questions about Leo!"

 

However, a pal of Leo's tells us: "He was really into Bar in the beginning but now he's kinda getting to the end of his tether. He finds her really clingy and being apart because of work causes rows."

 

Handsome Leo will have no shortage of female admirers if he does end it with the sexy Israeli. At last year's Armani party, at Earls Court, we were pushed out of the way by girls desperate to speak to him.

 

Not that the actor particularly likes his heart-throb image. In fact, Leo said yesterday how he hated being just "another piece of cute meat" after Titanic.

 

DiCaprio moaned: "It was disheartening to be objectified like that. Titanic changed my life but, at the same time, I can't say that it didn't give me career opportunities."

 

Now if only if he wants to change his girlfriend... we'll be first in line.

Studio's gambles pay off for DiCaprio, Eastwood

 

PARK CITY, Utah (Hollywood Reporter)- Warner Bros. faced an embarrassment of riches Tuesday with five Oscar nominations each for Martin Scorsese's "The Departed" and Edward Zwick's "Blood Diamond," both starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

 

DiCaprio and Clint Eastwood, the director and one of the producers of four-time nominee "Letters From Iwo Jima," both emerged with nominations. But in an unpredictable awards season, things could have taken a different course because both men were competing with themselves.

 

At the start of the Oscar season, Warners had to juggle the demands of two movies starring DiCaprio, who scored rave reviews for both. The studio at first drew criticism for its initial Oscar strategy favoring DiCaprio as best actor in "Diamond" over "Departed."

 

For the Screen Actors Guild Awards, where studios can slot actors into categories, it submitted DiCaprio's "Departed" performance in the supporting actor category. The Hollywood Foreign Press Assn., which decides these things for itself, took a different stance and nominated DiCaprio for both films in its leading actor category. (He won for neither and Forest Whitaker took home the Globe for "The Last King of Scotland.")

 

However, once DiCaprio accepted the fact that Academy voters, who decide which category an actor belongs in, were likely to follow the studio's lead and consider him as best actor in "Diamond" and supporting in "Departed," he refused to campaign against his "Departed" co-stars in the supporting actor category, the actor's press agent Ken Sunshine said.

 

Warners bought no supporting actor ads for DiCaprio. "There were 800 different narratives of what might happen," Sunshine said. "The last thing we wanted to do was manipulate the system. We decided to let things take their natural course."

 

A popular contender who has two horses in any race risks splitting his own vote.

 

"Leo did two amazing performances in two movies," said Graham King, who produced both films. "For me, one wasn't better than the other. 'The Departed' was more of an ensemble piece. The other, he was obviously the star of the film. Which one won the Oscar didn't matter. We just wanted the Academy to reward his work this year."

 

King said that early on nobody considered an Oscar campaign for "Departed," which was seen as more of a commercial genre picture. "We didn't want an Oscar campaign, there was no talk of the award season beforehand with the filmmakers," he said. "On this film, we never discussed it. On 'Blood Diamond,' a risky film for a studio to make, we needed the awards behind them to drive box office."

 

In the end, DiCaprio's best actor turn in "Diamond" proved his ticket to the Oscars. "I've never seen Leo happier, he's basking in the success of (fellow nominees) Djimon Hounsou and Mark Wahlberg," Sunshine added. And Warners could get the box office boost it needs for "Diamond."

 

As if Warners didn't have enough to worry about, at the height of the fall madness, the studio responded to a plea from its in-house actor-director-producer Eastwood. Paramount Pictures already had released his "Flags of Our Fathers," a DreamWorks/Warners co-production. Warners was planning to hold "Letters" for a February release.

 

But Eastwood told Warners that it might be best for the two films to be seen together as companion pieces. The studio listened -- after all, this was the man who pulled off Oscar surprises with "Mystic River" and "Million Dollar Baby," which won the best picture Oscar.

 

"For whatever reason, 'Flags' didn't spark people the way 'Letters' did," said Dawn Taubin, Warners president of domestic marketing. "As Clint always does, he surprises people."

 

The studio went into hyperdrive to open "Letters" in December for Oscar consideration. "We didn't even have a trailer," Taubin laughed. "We worked very fast, and the movie took off."

 

"Letters" came into the Oscar race too late to land an official Academy screening, but Warners invited members to multiple screenings and did a late DVD mailing.

 

As soon as "Letters" entered the fray, "Flags" withdrew, sources close to the campaign said. "The minute 'Letters' came out, you pick that one horse and ride it," said one campaigner.

 

At the Globes, Eastwood received two directing nominations. It might have been double jeopardy because he lost the award to Scorsese, though "Letters" was named best foreign-language film.

 

Still, the move to put "Letters" out at year's end paid off handsomely, as Eastwood's star power and critics' raves turned what might have been a difficult-to-watch foreign-language war film into a must-see. Clearly, Oscar voters picked one film over the other, while wanting to reward the popular eminence grise for the astonishing achievement of turning out two such master works at the grand old age of 76.

 

Eastwood knows what he's doing. The $20 million "Letters" was perceived as being more like Eastwood's other low-budget come-from-behind movies, as opposed to the $75 million massive scale front-runner wartime epic "Flags," which perhaps too closely resembled its producer Steven Spielberg's Oscar-winning "Saving Private Ryan."

 

As for Spielberg, as a producer on "Letters," he got to share in its best picture nomination, while Eastwood took home yet another directing nomination.

 

Still, Eastwood can't be considered the inevitable winner. While the Academy's admiration for him is huge, it might decide it finally is time to honor fellow veteran Scorsese, who so far has gone home empty-handed whenever he has been nominated.

SUPPORTING ACTORS

 

It's a mutual admiration society between Leonardo DiCaprio and his Blood Diamond costar – and fellow Academy Award nominee – Djimon Hounsou at the film's London premiere on Tuesday. "We kind of already celebrated," DiCaprio told reporters about receiving news of their Oscar nods. "We toasted each other. We gave each other a group hug."

EXCLUSIVE: DIAMOND GEEZER!

We join Leo DiCaprio on £10,000 all-night Oscar bender at top London clubs.

Eva Simpson & Caroline Hedley

 

HE hasn't got his hands on that coveted gold statuette just yet - but Leonardo DiCaprio is certainly partying like he has.

 

The Hollywood hunk celebrated a Best Actor Oscar nomination for Blood Diamond, by going on a marathon nine-hour, all-night booze bender.

 

We know - we were there! We watched in awe as Leo racked up a £10,000 bar bill as he partied at a series of London's top clubs.

 

He started drinking at 10pm on Tuesday night at Japanese restaurant Roka, and carried on at Boujis - a haunt of Princes William and Harry. At 3.45am it was off to The Collection until 6am yesterday morning.

 

Then it was all back to his hotel for a nightcap - where he carried on partying until a limo arrived to take him to Luton Airport for his 9am flight.

 

Talk about staying power!

 

Leo was clearly hellbent on a big night out when he and his co-stars - including Jennifer Connelly and Djimon Hounsou - went to Roka in Central London after Blood Diamond's West End premiere. At the bash, organised by Warner Brothers battleaxe Jayne Trotman, he washed down sushi with £20 champagne cocktails and £200-a-bottle Grey Goose vodka.

 

He popped back to his £4,000-a-night suite at the Berkeley Hotel in Knightsbridge to swap his suit for jeans and was straight out again - to Boujis in South Kensington.

 

There, Leo and his 20-strong entourage - including dapper ex-Jamiroquai bassist Stuart Zender - downed more vodka, the club's infamous "Crackberry" champagne cocktails and "strawberry cheesecake" vodka shots.

 

Any "undesirables" were soon shooed away from our party. Sadly four of Leo's burly minders asked some rather cute guys to move on - although the same rule didn't seem to apply to the sexy girls dancing nearby!

 

Chain-smoking Leo, 32, was in fine form, singing along to R&B songs. One of his pals told us: "He's on such a high after being nominated. He doesn't come to London very often and wanted to make the most of it."

 

He certainly did that. After settling the whopping £5,000 drinks bill, limos arrived at 3.45am to whisk us to The Collection in Chelsea. Here, the boozing began in earnest with £200 magnums of Veuve Clicquot being quaffed. Leo looked really chuffed when two bottles of bubbly arrived with sparklers in the top - his mates had arranged it with the bar staff.

 

By 5.30am, Leo - who was a little unsteady on his feet by now - started mimicking everyone's British accents. It wasn't brilliant, but it was hilarious. We called it a night then... well, it was way past 3am and we had this column to write. But we hear Leo carried on boozing back at his hotel.

 

Earlier when we'd congratulated Leo on his nomination he said, "Thanks, let's wait and see what happens." But after seeing how hard he parties we hate to think what he'll be like if he wins next month.

 

We don't think our livers could take it...

DiCaprio, "Departed" scribe eye another thriller

 

Leonardo DiCaprio is reuniting with the Oscar-winning writer of "The Departed," William Monahan, to star in another Hong Kong remake, a thriller titled "Confessions of Pain."

 

The Warner Bros. project follows two close friends, one a police detective and the other a private eye, who investigate the murder of the cop's father-in-law. They uncover evidence that shows that nothing is as it appears.

 

The original, released last year, was created by Alan Mak, Andrew Lau and Felix Chong, the team behind "Infernal Affairs," the Hong Kong film on which "The Departed" was based.

 

"Pain" is being developed as a starring vehicle for DiCaprio, who will also serve as a producer.

 

Monahan, who won the Academy Award for best adapted screenplay for "The Departed," will write "Pain" and executive produce.

 

"The Departed" won three other Oscars on Sunday, for best picture, editing (Thelma Schoonmaker) and director (Martin Scorsese).

DiCaprio, Supermodel, Arrive in Israel

 

Leonardo DiCaprio arrived in Israel with supermodel Bar Refaeli this weekend, creating a paparazzi storm.

 

The 32-year-old Hollywood actor and Refaeli, 21, have been romantically linked for about a year, and Israeli newspapers regularly run updates on their relationship.

 

They apparently hoped to slip into the country unnoticed on a night flight from Frankfurt, Germany, on Sunday, but the plane was also carrying a group of Israeli entertainment reporters on their way back from a press junket in Ireland.

 

By the time DiCaprio and Refaeli headed for her family's home in an upscale Tel Aviv suburb, it had been besieged by dozens of photographers.

 

Guy Pines, host of an Israeli entertainment news show, rented a helicopter to survey the scene from the air, standard paparazzi procedure abroad but a first for Israel, he said.

 

But all the cameramen were able to capture was a blurry shot of the couple, their faces obscured, being driven to the home of Refaeli's parents.

 

On Monday, the pair eluded their pursuers and traveled to Jerusalem, where they paid an after-hours visit to the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial, museum spokeswoman Estee Yaari said.

 

They later visited the Western Wall and its subterranean tunnels in the Old City, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said. Police kept cameras back to shield the famous couple from exposure.

 

DiCaprio has received Oscar nominations for his roles in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," "The Aviator" and "Blood Diamond." Refaeli is featured in Sports Illustrated magazine's recent swimsuit issue alongside Aerosmith lead singer Steven Tyler.

 

Pines told The Associated Press the high-profile success both celebrities have enjoyed "turns them into a power couple that grabs a lot of media attention."

 

But more than anything, Israelis are happy for a diversion, Pines said.

 

"The fact that most of the headlines here recently haven't been pleasant turns the interest in this beautiful fairy tale couple into something the media can revel in," he said.

Leo Takes the Bar to Vegas

Posted Apr 2nd 2007 5:57PM by TMZ Staff

Filed under: Britney Spears, Hot Vegas

 

Something was in the water (or Grey Goose) this weekend in Vegas, because the place was crawling with celebs, and even famously camera-shy Leonardo DiCaprio got snapped.

 

Leonardo and Britney Spears made separate, but equally notable splashes in Sin City this weekend, with Leo showing up for JET Nightclub's first anniversary party with girlfriend Bar Refaeli and her dad, while Britney had dinner -- and a soft drink -- at TAO.

 

DiCaprio, perhaps returning the favor for Bar's taking him home to meet the folks in Israel last month, brought the lady and her pops to JET's birthday bash, partying with "Blood Diamond" co-star Djimon Hounsou, and pals Luke Wilson, Woody Harrelson and Kevin Connolly.

 

Meanwhile, Britney donned her now-customary wig 'n hat look to dine with two unidentified friends at TAO, munching on veggie dumplings and, yes, drinking Pepsi. We're told that she stayed for a brief dinner and wasn't spotted thereafter.

CAPRIO TO BE A DADDIO

EXCLUSIVE: LEO'S NAPPY NEWS

 

NEWS that Leonardo DiCaprio is planning to wed stunning girlfriend Bar Rafaeli in the summer shocked many.

 

But now we may know the real reason they're getting hitched so quickly. Word reaches us that the couple, who have been dating for just 15 months, are expecting their first child.

 

Friends claim that Bar - who is the first Israeli model to appear in Sports Illustrated magazine - is due in late autumn. They add that she and Titanic hunk Leo are "delighted".

 

An excited Leo has said he can't wait to be a dad, especially since his best mate, Spider-Man star Tobey Maguire, became a father last November.

 

Our spy reveals: "He dotes on Tobey's little girl Ruby and has been asking him all about what it's like being a dad."

 

There was speculation last month that 21-year-old Bar might be pregnant when she wore a loose-fitting top to a bash at Jet Nightclub at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. She also stuck to mineral water all night. Leonardo, 32, is thought to have proposed very recently, and when he and Bar holidayed in Israel she is said to have officially introduced him to her family - and held a secret engagement party there.

 

American reports suggest they will have a private wedding ceremony in Israel, followed by a bigger bash in the US toward the end of the year.

 

We can reveal that Leo's people have already been in contact with several exclusive venues in Tel Aviv about catering for various aspects of the wedding. The five-star Dan Accadia Herzliya Hotel has been contacted about staging the wedding party, while sources at the lavish King David Hotel in the Old City say Leo's people have asked about holding the ceremony there.

 

Leo started dating Bar after splitting from Gisele Bundchen. Early attempts to keep their affair secret failed when they were spotted on a series of romantic breaks in Paris, Prague and New York.

 

Neither will talk about their relationship - when we interviewed Bar recently, a PR warned us: "No questions about Leo!" But friends reveal that they are very much in love and busy planning a future together.

 

For them and for little Leo, too...

Nice.

 

I know whenever I wear a loose fitting shirt it must mean that I'm pregnant. Not that I couldn't find anything to wear, not that she was going through that time of the month, but whatever.

 

Are they really expecting a child? My god man, why is everybody becoming a baby daddy - everyone male celebrity I have a crush on is either knocking up some woman or dating Reese Witherspoon...I hate my life.
