Nikki Glaser has recently opened up about the charming response she received from Leonardo DiCaprio after she poked fun at him during the 2026 Golden Globe Awards. If you're unaware, the 41-year-old American comedian and actress had a good laugh at his expense, particularly for his tendency to date women under 30 and his notoriously private lifestyle, joking that all people knew about him was his favorite food: "pasta, pasta and more pasta."
Fast forward to Wednesday, May 6th, when the talented comedian attended Netflix Is a Joke's Night of Too Many Stars event at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. During the event, she shared a delightful anecdote about how DiCaprio had sent her three baskets of pasta after her jokes.
Talking to PEOPLE magazine at the event, she recalled, "I got sent a picture of it because I wasn't there when it arrived, and I was like, 'What is this?' And they were like, 'It's from Leonardo DiCaprio,' and I was like, 'There's no way.' And then I zoomed in more, and I was kind of confused."
She continued, "I was like, 'He sent pasta?' And I didn't remember that the joke I had told was that his favorite food was pasta, pasta, and more pasta, and that he sent me three baskets of it." She added, "So, he did three servings of pasta. It was so funny."
The Dancing with the Stars alum admitted that DiCaprio's response was "so entirely unexpected." She said, "I was just bowled over by how kind it was because he took a couple of jokes that night that I'm sure - no one loves to have jokes directed at them, so it's probably really kind of like, 'Oh God, this again.'"
Overall, Nikki Glaser couldn't help but share her appreciation for DiCaprio's graciousness in the face of some good-natured ribbing.
