Leoanrdo DiCaprio celebrated his 50th birthday with plenty of partying as per usual, as an insider exclusively reveals to In Touch that he vows to make zero changes to his playboy lifestyle and continue to live like a 20-something moving forward at all costs.
“Leo’s friends and family stopped trying to influence him many years ago,” the insider says.
The Titanic star celebrated the big 5-0 with a party hosted at Sybil Robson Orr and Matthew Orr’s Los Angeles home on Saturday, November 9. Before the shindig, which boasted an impressive guest list including Paris Hilton, Katy Perry, Robin Thicke, Tyga and Damson Idris, Leo and his immediate family and friends enjoyed a private dinner.
A producer who spoke to DailyMail said, “Leo’s parties are legendary. Last year he took over a private event space in Beverly Hills and everyone from Lady Gaga to Beyoncé and Jay-Z to Kim Kardashian were there.”
“Leo is usually on the sidelines, surrounded by beautiful young women, quietly watching and observing,” the producer added.
While this year’s party was certainly a bash, the difference between Leo at 49 and Leo at 50 is his commitment to his new gal, Vittoria Ceretti, who the actor has been seeing for over a year. This time around, she joined the Catch Me If You Can actor and his mom, Irmelin Indenbirken, on a Mexican getaway to celebrate the special event. However, the source notes that, despite the Italian model, 26, meeting the parents, the Oscar winner refuses to settle down.
“This non committal lifestyle and hedonistic approach is all part of who he is and he makes zero apology or excuse for it,” the first insider continues.
“If you want to hang with Leo and certainly if you want to date him, that’s just what you sign up for – the guy’s not changing his ways for anyone. He’s as into his comic books, replica dinosaurs, fancy yachts and everything else that goes with the good life as he’s ever been.”
Despite Leo’s live fast and die after 50 approach, Vittoria is still angling to break the notorious lothario out of his routine and become Mrs. DiCaprio one day – and a huge part of the plan is getting to know his hobbies and passions, including dinosaurs and comics.
Talking about the model’s fixation on her A-list beau, a second source previously dished to In Touch that “she’s made the effort to learn about all his favorite characters and be supportive.”
“She is proving she’s very invested in getting to know and love him on every level, she’s not just another trophy girlfriend,” that source added.
Though the Killers of the Flower Moon star has himself broken Leo’s Law (dating a woman over 25) by sticking with Vittoria as she turned 26, it’s unlikely The Great Gatsby actor will be able to pull himself away from partying like the titular Fitzgerald-novel character he portrayed.
“Much like his idol Jack Nicholson,” the first source adds, “it’s his world and everyone just has to fit in around it.”
