Leonardo DiCaprio Had Fun at 2026 Awards Shows
Leonardo DiCaprio, known for his success in the film “One Battle After Another,” found himself at the center of jokes during the 2026 awards season. Despite this, he was seen laughing along with the audience.
At the Critics Choice Awards in January 2026, host Chelsea Handler jokingly mentioned DiCaprio’s near absence due to being stranded on a boat in St. Barts. She humorously compared it to the movie “Titanic,” adding a twist by mentioning Jeff Bezos’ presence.
During the Golden Globes, host Nikki Glaser included DiCaprio in her monologue, praising his performance in “One Man Bun After Another” and highlighting his impressive career achievements. She also humorously referenced his personal life, eliciting a positive response from DiCaprio himself in the audience.
Glaser later apologized for her jokes, acknowledging their cheekiness and expressing her admiration for DiCaprio’s talent and versatility as an actor. Despite the light-hearted teasing, it was evident that DiCaprio took it all in stride and enjoyed the playful banter at the awards shows.
