No, Leo Won't Go

HOLLYWOOD (Reuters) - Leonardo DiCaprio says he's definitely not attending Monday's Academy Awards. But he's not sending his regrets out of spite for being snubbed in the Best Actor category. ``He's not planning on attending because he feels it would take away from everyone else's moment,'' his representative, Cindy Guagenti tells the New York Post. ``He just feels it's not his year. This is really a moment for James, for Kate, for Gloria.'' That was a reference to ``Titanic'' director James Cameron and actresses, Kate Winslet and Gloria Stuart, who are up for Oscars.

Leo, quit being a spoiled little brat and go support your movie!

Well said Allison (he should have supported his movie - seeing how this is now being written ex post facto).

Anyway - where was Leo? He had nothing to do but wait at home - waiting to live, waiting to die, waiting for a nomination that would never come :)
