Leonardo DiCaprio labeled ‘snob’ and ‘disrespectful’

In a now-viral TikTok video, the Titanic star Leonardo DiCaprio was seen leaving a hotel in Nadi on November 20 as staff lined up to perform a traditional farewell serenade. Wearing a dark cap, tracksuit, and sunglasses, the actor seemed to overlook the cultural send-off as he entered the foyer. Without pausing for a moment DiCaprio just took out his phone and started a conversation. He then quickly lowered his head before rushing to a waiting car.

Fans were left questioning his behavior, with some expressing their disappointment. “He didn’t even recognise the welcome,” one fan commented, while another wrote, “At least a quick wave or thank you would have been nice.” Many felt his lack of acknowledgment was disrespectful to the Fijian tradition.
