It's the Pickup Wednesday afternoon with Britt, Laura and Mitch rushing to keVs Warehouse Today grab anc protein. They're powering tomorrow Today.
The Man, the Myth, the legend, Leonardo DiCaprio. He's all over the news again because we know he likes to date younger women. There's this whole thing that when DiCaprio's girlfriends hit twenty five, he trades them in thank you bye next. And it's a bit of a joke because his last girlfriend was four years. He was dating her four years. The day she turned twenty five, not the day, but like exaggeration, but pretty much he broke up with her and went to date it a twenty three year old.
This is problematic on a lot of levels. But he's just been seen a nineteen year old. Now, Leonardo Dicapro is forty seven his new apparent girlfriend that he was just seen with, and all that's happened is ares a photo that's come out of him sitting next to this nineteen year old model. Her name is Eden Polani. She's beautiful, but she's nineteen.
I think it's problematic when you go from being famous for being in movies to go to being famous for dating young women. It seems to be the thing that he makes the news for these days.
Yeah.
I don't even know if he does any movies anymore. But this is a serious discussion and I do want to talk about it. But I want to have a laugh first, because the tweets that have been coming out about this are actually really funny.
That he's clever. This situation is serious.
Yes, the tweets are very clever. I just want to read his on Okay, Leonardo DiCaprio's girlfriend is so young. Her high school experience was interrupted by Coper.
Oh it was, it would have been.
It was, okay, hang on. Fun fact she was negative seven years old when Titanic came out.
Inspiring.
Oh no, Leonardo DiCaprio has said that after December nineteen, twenty twenty two, that he'll refuse to watch Titanic anymore. It's nothing personal. It's just that the movie will have turned twenty five years old and he'll have interested.
No, this isn't fair that I've got the photo here of him sitting next to of the nineteen year old and they're just sitting next to each other at a basketball game. They're not holding hands. They haven't been seen kissing, Like, give the guy a break. Maybe it's his nephew and he's taken maybe to make a wish. No, I was taking her out to a basketball game. It wasn't a basketball game.
It was an EP release party.
Okay, okay, we're focusing on the nineteen year old and the trade in for a younger girl. Even if he's not dating this Polanic girl. His girlfriend who he's with at the time or now, is twenty three years old and he is forty seven. I still think that that is a too bigger age gap. And I know that some people will say, oh, but she's an adult, she's
in her twenties, it's fine. The reason why I think it's such an issue is because he's so famous, he's so powerful, he has so much influence as this successful actor, and she's twenty three. I think about what I was like at twenty three, and I was a kid.
The problem isn't just the age gap, because there are plenty of people out there with twenty year age gaps that love each other for the right reasons and are successful. Yes, it seems like a huge gap, and it is, but the problem is it's a pattern. It's not a one off. He met the love of his life and people need to accept that there's an age gap. It's he's notorious
for it. The only person who's dated I think in however many years that's over twenty five was Gigi had did That was for about two seconds day.
The twenty one year old ones shame on me, the twenty one year old seventeen times. It's real, shame on you. Yeah, I agree, I agree exactly.
The fact that it is this pattern behavior makes it seem like it is really predatory.
No, it's just get Leo on the show. Can we get it for next week? You get him on?
Really?
Yeah, we'll get leoh one, we'll just get to the bottom of it. Hey. Up next, it's Maths Confessions Week at the Moment, which is everyone's favorite part of the Maths franchise. It's essentially when the couples rank each other from best to worst.
