Leonardo DiCaprio opens up about people being interested in his private life.
Leo started by saying, “As far as my personal life is concerned, my answer is pretty simple. I got into this industry at a very young age. I felt incredibly compelled to do this.”
He added, “And the irony is that I was born and raised in Hollywood. People think, ‘Oh, OK, just add water,’ right? But I tried to become an actor multiple times and I got rejected.”
He continued, “So since then, a lot of other stuff comes hand in hand with that. The complete loss of your private life. And you know what? A lot of people have to deal with a lot harsher things than having their private life be public knowledge. That’s just one of the byproducts.”
Leo finished by saying, “I feel too lucky to do what I do to sit here and complain about it. It’s just one of the things you have to accept and you adapt.”
