Leonardo DiCaprio: No, he's never used drugs
After the death of Cory Monteith and more recently of Philip Seymour Hoffman, Hollywood can no longer deny its "drug problem". Our beloved Leonardo DiCaprio, meanwhile, decided to clear things up.
Last Sunday, Philip Seymour Hoffman was added to the sad list of stars who died of an overdose. His death shocked Hollywood and many stars have paid tribute to him on the web. While the farewells followed one another on Twitter, some icons of American cinema were keen to speak out about the scourge of drugs on the planet people. In his latest film, The Wolf of Wall Street, Leonardo DiCaprio plays a broker addicted to cocaine and other narcotics.
While his role may have shocked some fans of the big screen, the hunk was keen to clarify the situation during an interview with Los Angeles Time. “I never dabbled in drugs. When I was three or four years old, I witnessed its effects on a daily basis. Hollywood seemed like a breath of fresh air to me. In the evenings, there is this temptation and I have seen a lot of talents dive into it. It's sad, "he tells the magazine.
According to Leonardo DiCaprio, drugs are very present in Hollywood. Many actors, desperately trying to get started, would try these narcotics before becoming totally addicted to them. It must be said that Leonardo DiCaprio did not have an easy childhood and the horrors he saw in the Californian slums would serve him daily to fight against temptation. In Los Angeles, Toni Garrn's boyfriend grew up on dirty streets. Every day he had to deal with violence, drugs, prostitution and crime.
In view of his breathtaking career and his involvement in the environment, we can only conclude that Leonardo DiCaprio did really well! Today, this neighborhood he knew so well would have become bourgeois. Surprising but true, Leonardo DiCaprio has everything the perfect bad boy!
