Leonardo DiCapriodid it. He really, finally did it. After a seemingly endless wait (23 years, to be exact) and aplethora of hilarious memes,he finally snagged an Oscar for his role in The Revenant. The buzz isn't unfounded, eitherconsidering the number of roles Leo has had in the last two decades, you'd think he'd have won way sooner. I mean, just look at him.
The Revenant was his fifth nomination. His Oscar Blue Balls journey began back in 1993, when he starred in What's Eating Gilbert Grape. He didn't go nude then, but it launched him into a career that would include full-frontal nudity and death at the hands of Kate Winslet andthe freezing waters of the Atlantic. Well, not really on that last one.
He was also nominated for 2004'sThe Aviator,which gave us our second glimpse of Leo's lion. Coincidence? We think not. His third nomination was for Blood Diamond, which he sadly did not bare skin during, but the fourth gave us a great look at his glutes: 2013's The Wolf of Wall Street.
He's long been a favorite and Mr. Man though, thanks to his early and frequent penchant for peeling off his clothes in the name of quality cinema. Here's to you, Leo! Congratulations!
