In a strange clash of worlds, Diana Vickers once ended up in a ‘bizarre’ situation with Hollywood A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio.
The former X Factor star, 34, revealed on Metro‘s Just Between Us podcast that she had gone to Leo’s home, thinking she’d landed a party invitation.
Diana was discussing age-gap relationships with co-host Alice Giddings when the topic of the Titanic actor cropped up due to his recent comments.
Leonardo, 50, has a reputation for dating a string of 20-something models and is currently seeing Vittoria Ceretti, 27.
He was put forward as an example of a ‘man in Hollywood with so much fame and power, who doesn’t want to grow up.’
‘I did meet Leo once’, the singer told Metro’s sex columnist before adding: ‘He will have no memory of meeting me.’
Diana revealed: ‘One of his mates invited me around to his house. I thought it was going to be a party.
‘Then I ended up just sitting with him watching telly. It was a really, really bizarre moment.’
However, Diana believed this was more than just a one-time weirdness and instead the Revenant star ‘has a system’.
‘So, Leo’s obviously at the helm of it – and he surrounds himself with these good-looking lads, who are all looking for a good time,’ she shared.
‘The good-looking lads go and source these hot women for him – it’s really dodgy.
‘That stuff happens a lot in Hollywood. These men have got so much fame and power, and they don’t want to grow up.
‘They just want to be surrounded by beautiful young women all the time. I am not generalising Leo here, I think that’s just what happens.
‘It’s quite weird actually.’
Leo recently said he ‘turned emotionally 35 last year’ in an interview for Esquire, after stating he was 32 years old.
However, Diana explained that the age-gap relationship is becoming increasingly common for women as ‘a lot more’ are dating younger men.
‘One of the last guys I dated was five years younger than me – I did feel it. It was why we didn’t work out,’ she said.
Diana explained: ‘When you’re older, you want to put in the graft – you want to see things through. You don’t dwell on smaller things as much.
‘This guy just gave off immature energy – he was constantly holding on to things. I think I maybe acted immature because he was less mature.
‘It made me feel less of my older, feminine energy. I sort of reverted back. It was a lot of fun though.’
