From the time he got his start in acting to the present day, Leonardo DiCaprio evolving talents have never ceased to amaze fans around the world. Many of his roles have been in biopics, and of course, his amazing performance in the 1997 movie Titanic is definitely one to remember. 

Celebrities such as DiCaprio are constantly being photographed, even in day-to-day life. It is part of what the job as an actor or an actress entails, and fans quite enjoy seeing all the pictures that eventually surface online.

While fans love seeing pictures of the handsome DiCaprio all dressed up in a tuxedo and attending elite functions, or just basic paparazzi shots, there are some pictures out there that he wishes would just disappear — a quirky ’90s photo shoot.

DiCaprio has appeared in numerous hit films throughout his career, and it doesn’t appear that he is going anywhere anytime soon. Born in LA in 1974, he has been known to take on distinctive roles in movies, and he has a huge fan base to back him up in all he does.

The actor got his start at the age of 5 when he began appearing on the children’s show Romper Room. After a few years and several guest-starring roles, fans can surely remember when DiCaprio appeared on the hit sitcom Growing Pains as Luke Brower.

From there, he went on to do bigger things, starring alongside well-known actors such as Robert DeNiro and Jonah Hill. Although he has decided to lie low for a short while during 2020, it is being said that DiCaprio has big things planned for the upcoming year. 

Leo DiCaprio’s off-beat ’90’s photoshoot

Everyone has embarrassing photographs that they wish they could erase from existence. Who can forget their awkward middle school and high school class pictures, not to mention the seemingly thousands of snapshots that were taken over the years when we just weren’t all that into it?

As it turns out, being a successful and photogenic actor and producer doesn’t spare you from cringe photoshoots. Taken back in 1995, DiCaprio appeared in a British entertainment magazine, and it was interesting, to say the least.

Shot by photographer David LaChapelle, the pictures feature a 21-year-old DiCaprio in a fight with a dinosaur, while a small child grabs at his leg. Another shot shows the actor wearing a leather jacket and pants, lying on a chair in what appears to be some type of office setting.

After a photoshoot like that, even the man behind the camera can’t keep quiet. So, what did LaChapelle have to say? Well, in an interview, he stated that he thinks “Leo DiCaprio is still pissed off about posing with those bananas.”

Even so, it is highly likely that fans will have a good laugh when they see the resurfaced photographs, and it probably won’t affect DiCaprio’s popularity one little bit! We have to say that we truly enjoyed this trip back to the ’90s to see what one of our favorite actors was up to at the time.
