AceShowbiz - Leonardo DiCaprio is so charming that he's able to attract both men and women, including Pete Davidson. The comedian, who graced the cover of Paper Magazine's latest issue, admitted to having a crush on the actor when he was younger and got pretty crass when explaining his attraction to Leo at the time.
Pete made a shocking confession when speaking to the magazine, saying that he "used to jerk off to Leonardo DiCaprio... Uhh, like his acting." The "Saturday Night Live" star added, "I used to have a HUGE crush on Leonardo DiCaprio. I had this huge poster of him from 'The Beach' in my room," and said that he owned several books about the "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" star.
"There used to be, like, 'Leo love books'... Do you remember?" Pete recalled. "Like, right when 'Titanic' came out [when I was in like third or fourth grade, he was just like, 'teen milk.' There were love books and I had all of them. He was the coolest."
Now that Pete is a celebrity himself, it's only natural that he has gotten a chance to meet Leo. However, he apparently was so nervous it was basically too much to handle. "I've met him twice and I've just shaken hands and run away fast," he told the publication.
Elsewhere in the interview, Pete opened up about his dating lifestyle and revealed that he's a "very PDA [person]. I'm a lovey person. I love licking faces." The star, who is now dating Kaia Gerber, also gave a shout out to his ex-fiancee Ariana Grande, to whom he was engaged for a few months. "I hope she's well," he said. "I hope she's very happy. And that's pretty much it. And print doesn't usually age well."
