Leonardo DiCaprio Mocked For Getting Marooned On Vacation With Jeff Bezos

Chelsea Handler zinged Leonardo DiCaprio for almost missing Sunday’s Critics Choice Awards after nearly getting stuck vacationing with billionaire Jeff Bezos.

Using her opening monologue to tease the “One Battle After Another” actor about being MIA at the Palm Springs Film Festival the night prior, hostess Handler joked, “Leo’s here, thank God ... He was trapped on a boat in St. Barts. It was just like ‘The Titanic’ but worse, because Jeff Bezos was there.”

DiCaprio wasn’t above laughing at himself, captured cracking a warm smile at Handler’s punchline.

Over the New Year’s holiday, the Oscar-winner was spotted on Bezos’ super-yacht along with his girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti and the e-commerce mogul’s wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos.
