Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio are essentially A-lister competitors, but whose net worth is more impressive?Leo Reportedly Spends A Fortune On Star Wars Figurines
According to a new report from The U.S. Sun, Leonardo has a valuable assortment of authentic Star Wars memorabilia within his possession. Employing a pseudonym, he apparently actively engages in online auctions to procure rare items as they surface in the market.
This fixation burgeoned subsequent to his acquisition of a scarce poster for the renowned 1927 science-fiction masterpiece, Metropolis , a seminal work that influenced the creation of the beloved Star Wars character, C-3PO.
The Oscar-winner reportedly has approximately 80 preserved figurines originating from the 1970s and 1980s era. He keeps them encased within their original packaging, which has substantially increased their value over time, even prompting Leo to safeguard them under lock and key.
“Leo is a huge Star Wars fan,” a source claimed to the publication. “He grew up watching the films and loves collecting anything to do with the original movies.”

But when you have the kind of money he has, it’s a lot more understandable.”
Leo Allegedly Has Even Stranger Preferences In Bed
While Leo’s Star Wars collection may seem obsessive, it’s innocent compared to the recent accusations a Playboy model made about how Leonardo prefers hook-ups.
Speaking to the Dutch edition of Playboy, Hieke Koning, 22, claimed her encounter with Leo wasn’t pleasant and revealed she’s heard some questionable things from other models who’ve hooked up with the 49-year old.
“It was in a secret club in LA, one where you only get in by invitation. I saw him sitting there in his black hoodie and black cap and we made eye contact,” she explained.
Hieke recounts being approached by Leonardo's manager, who conveyed the actor's desire to speak with her, a request to which she acquiesced. Subsequently, she was escorted to the area where Leonardo was seated. Reflecting on the encounter, the model describes the actor’s gesture as a kiss.
“It was okay, but definitely not the best I’ve had,” Koning said, adding she went on to turn down Leo’s invitation to return to his place. “He reacted very shocked. Of course he wasn’t used to it. When I said I didn’t know him well enough, he responded sweetly. I respect that,” she said. “Whereupon he turned to another girl and took her home.”
As per Leo’s preference in bed, the model alleged, “One friend said he kept his earphones in during sex because he didn’t want to hear her. And another said he even put a pillow on her head. No, Leo is too weird and too old.”
For now, Leonardo hasn’t responded to any of the accusations.
