Leonardo DiCaprio embarked on a grandiose kickoff for his 50th birthday festivities with a lavish bash on Saturday. The esteemed actor welcomed an array of his Hollywood colleagues, alongside cherished friends and family, to a cozy private dinner preceding the grand event. Accounts suggest that Leonardo DiCaprio was "on cloud nine throughout the night," mingling joyfully with his guests and savoring every moment of the celebration.
As the weekend unfurled, Leonardo DiCaprio commenced his birthday revelry at his Los Angeles abode ahead of the official date. According to a source cited by People Magazine, the Hollywood icon, who is destined to turn 50 on November 11, first hosted an intimate "dinner for family and friends" to mark this significant milestone. Following this heartfelt celebration, he threw a "spectacular party" attended by numerous high-profile celebrities.
The guest list was reportedly an impressive array that included Brad Pitt, DiCaprio's co-star from "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," alongside Tobey Maguire, his long-time friend and co-star in "The Great Gatsby." Jamie Foxx, who shared the screen with DiCaprio in "Django Unchained," was also among the attendees. Other A-listers who graced the occasion were Robin Thicke, Odell Beckham Jr., Tyga, Paris Hilton, Cara Delevingne, Chris Rock, Teyana Taylor, Bill Maher, Alexander "A.E." Edwards, Kevin Connolly, and Todd Phillips.
The festivities reportedly continued into the wee hours of the morning, with singer and record producer Anderson .Paak providing a musical feast from the DJ booth. According to the source, DiCaprio arrived at his party with an upbeat demeanor and spent the night having an absolute blast, engaging with his guests as the evening progressed. "He was overjoyed and hugging everyone around. Leo was on a continuous high throughout the night," revealed the insider to the outlet.
Given the multitude of celebrities in attendance, the celebration naturally segmented into distinct social cliques led by some stars. "Jamie was the life of the party in one corner, while Todd held sway in another," the insider noted about Foxx and Phillips. The insider further shared that Pitt, who arrived with his girlfriend Ines de Ramon, was fully immersed in enjoying himself at the party. They claimed that he "spent the entire night on the front patio" and was in an "excellent mood, extremely sociable, greeting everyone warmly."
It remains uncertain whether DiCaprio has planned another grand celebration for his actual birthday. However, if he has, it would hardly come as a surprise, given his reputation for pulling out all the stops for his parties. "Leo's parties are nothing short of legendary. Last year, he took charge of a private event space in Beverly Hills, where celebrities ranging from Lady Gaga to Beyonce and Jay-Z to Kim Kardashian were all present," a producer told the Daily Mail.
They subtly suggested that the actor might deliver another perplexing performance, reminiscent of his enigmatic antics during his 49th birthday celebration. Speaking further about the "Titanic" legend, they revealed, "Leo often remains a quiet observer on the fringes, encircled by a bevy of stunning young women. But his behavior last year was a complete surprise; he stood up and broke into a rap, marking the sole occasion where he has deliberately placed himself in the limelight."
DiCaprio, renowned for his high-profile romantic escapades, is currently in a relationship with model Vittoria Ceretti. Their romance first sparked rumors in August, followed by sightings of them dancing intimately at an Ibiza nightclub the subsequent month. Since then, they have been spotted together on numerous public occasions, even celebrating DiCaprio's last birthday as a couple.
Last November, whispers emerged that DiCaprio had set aside his playboy image, choosing to focus solely on his relationship with Ceretti. An insider told US Weekly, "Leo's relationship is going so swimmingly that he's actually being exclusive. Vittoria is the only one he has eyes for." The source added that the couple shares an abundance of common interests, fostering a natural blossoming of their romance. Moreover, the significant 20-plus-year age gap between the Hollywood star and the model has posed no obstacles for them.
Regarding DiCaprio's immense fame, the insider confirmed that Ceretti is not "intimidated" by it, which DiCaprio finds incredibly "refreshing." They also claimed that DiCaprio's friends believe that this relationship is a far cry from the casual flings the "Killers of the Flower Moon" star has had in the past.
The actor and model attended a Rolling Stones concert in July, reportedly spending the night wrapped in each other's arms. A fan who caught a glimpse of the duo at the concert raved about how they "seemed more in love than ever" and weren't hesitant to "let loose" despite being in public.
The insider shared with the Daily Mail, "They shared a drink, whispered sweet nothings into each other's ears, and didn't leave each other's side – they seemed as though they were walking on air." During the concert, other fans approached DiCaprio and Ceretti, trying to engage with them, as confirmed by the source.
However, the smitten pair reportedly wouldn't part from each other's side, continuing to giggle, display public affection, and thoroughly enjoy their night out as a couple.
