“I refused to have sex with Leonardo DiCaprio at 19”: Mischa Barton spoke about the obscene proposal 02/10/2023, 13:55

The incident occurred when the “They Can’t Catch You” star was just 19 years old. Misha accidentally bumped into the Hollywood actor during his photo shoot in Malibu. Leonardo was going through a breakup with model Gisele Bundchen at the time. The young actress had every chance to catch DiCaprio’s attention. Míša was at the height of her fame after her role in the TV series The Lonely Hearts, and besides, she was very similar in type to his former lover.

Publicist Craig Schneider suggested that Burton ask DiCaprio out on a date. A friend of the actress recommended that she take a closer look at the main character in the movie Titanic. Craig insisted that an affair with Leonard would help the girl advance in Hollywood. “For the sake of your career, go and spend the night with this man,” Misha recounted Schneider’s words.

However, Barton categorically rejected the friend’s idea and indicated that he was interested in men his own age. “Isn’t Leo 30 or so?” — the artist recalled her words to the Daily Mail.

The interview of the thirty-seven-year-old actress sparked interest during heated discussions about Leonardo’s new novel. The public is outraged that the actor started dating 19-year-old Israeli model Eden Polanyi.

The leading man in The Great Gatsby is in no rush to settle down. Leonardo is surrounded by the attention of women. The actor does not want to date girls over 25 years old. A British writer expressed an opinion on why DiCaprio is not interested in peers. According to Caitlin Moran, the artist suffered psychological trauma on the set.

Mischa Barton suffered a serious nervous breakdown in 2017. The actress underwent mandatory treatment at a Los Angeles hospital. Two months later, the star made a full recovery and posed for a beach photoshoot.
