Leonardo DiCaprio is 50 going on ... 33?
The Titanic star recently sat down with Esquire for a Q&A with filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson. The interview covered a variety of topics, but things sure got interesting when Anderson shared that the men's magazine wanted him to ask DiCaprio about aging.
"Here’s a question Esquire wants me to ask. 'You turned fifty last year. Does it feel like a natural time for reflection?'" to which DiCaprio responded with, "'You turned emotionally thirty-five last year.'"
Anderson, 55, shot back, "'Your age is fifty, but your emotional maturity is thirty-two.'” How does that feel?"
That DiCaprio feels like he's in his mid-30s offers a possible explanation as to why The Departed star exclusively dates younger women. While DiCaprio has currently been linked to 27-year-old Italian model Vittoria Ceretti for nearly two years now, DiCaprio's dating history more than suggests he had a penchant for younger women.
DiCaprio was previously linked to Nina Agdal, Gisele Bündchen, Blake Lively, and Erin Heatherton, among many, many others.

For DiCaprio, becoming older means having less time to waste.
"Well, it creates a feeling like you have a desire to just be more honest and not waste your time. I can only imagine how the next few decades are going to progress. I look at my mother, for example, and she just says exactly what she thinks and wastes no time. She spends no time trying to fake it," he answered.
DiCaprio added, "Being more upfront and risking having things fall apart or risk the disagreements or risk going your separate ways from any type of relationship in life—the personal, professional—it’s that you just don’t want to waste your time anymore. You have to just be much more upfront. It’s almost a responsibility because much more of your life is behind you than it is ahead of you."
