Actor Leonardo DiCaprio was born on November 11, 1974, in Los Angeles, California, USA. He aspired to be an actor from the age of 10 and made his entertainment debut at age 14, appearing in his first commercial. He then focused on television dramas, and made his film debut in 1991's "Critters 3." At age 19, he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," starring alongside Johnny Depp. His role as Jack in 1997's "Titanic" became the highest-grossing film of its time, and he gained worldwide popularity. He also became famous in Japan, where he was nicknamed "Leo-sama." He has since successfully shed his idol-like image, earning Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations for roles in "The Aviator," "The Departed," and "Blood Diamond," but has yet to win. He is rumored to have dated over 30 women in the past, including short-term relationships. He is particularly known for his love of models, and has dated Gisele Bundchen, Bar Refaeli, and Blake Lively. Upcoming releases include "The Wolf of Wall Street," his fifth collaboration with director Martin Scorsese.
