Leonardo DiCaprio - it is a brand. His name is known almost everything, not counting the students in the primary grades (someday they will know about it, let alone the time), and today one of the most beautiful and talented actors of our time Happy Birthday, he was 37 years old.

(Gilbert played Johnny Depp) and immediately after it was nominated for "Oscar". Just think, Oscar in 19 years !? Of course, he did not get the statuette, but subsequently getting any good roles. So in 1997, he has become famous thanks to "Titanic." His Jack Dawson loved all the girls the early 2000s, he became one of the highest paid Hollywood actors.
