Yes you heard that right, Leo partied and raised money at the same time. According to Page Six, at his bash at NY’s Avenue nightclub, he charged guests for drinks and bottle service and ultimately raised $1.3 million for his Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, which funds wildlife-protection projects and provides disaster relief and access to clean water in disaster stricken countries like Haiti.
This is Leonardo DiCaprio talking to a non-famous guy about birthdays:
Leo: Hey man, what did you do for your birthday?
Non Famous guy: Oh you know, tricked out the rims on my Honda Accord and dropped $100 at some strip club with my bros.

It’s the time of month where everyone slows down and the family gets together; I love being around my brother. I start Christmas shopping early to get into the feel of it. My mom always instilled that in my brother and I, 'You have to get into the Christmas Spirit' so we do that way before, even before Halloween."

The legendary entertainers were praised by Barack Obama on Sunday at the Kennedy Center Honors. They were presented with their accolades at a black-tie event for transforming the arts in America.
Obama told guests they were being honored because they were simply "the best."
He said: “These performers are indeed the best. They are also living reminders of a single truth — and I’m going to steal a line from my wife Michelle here — the arts are not somehow apart from our national life, the arts are the heart of our national life.”
Also in attendance were Jack Black, Ben Stiller, Edward Norton, Matthew Broderick and Philip Seymour Hoffman, among 300 other celebrity guests. Talk about a star studded affair!
Actress Meryl Streep was one of many stars to praise the award-winners. Speaking about Robert, she said: "Bob has earned the respect he enjoys around the world in the thousands of little bitty details.”
Congrats to the boys, you deserve it!

It seems like Fallon got some good reviews but naturally there was some bad ones as well.
A Hollywood Reporter critic said, "He tried too hard, stumbled over his punchlines and struggled to make Robert De Niro seem interesting," who basically said that Fallon had a "typically stiff debut."
Then comes the Entertainment Weekly critic who said that, "He did an ultra-ordinary monologue -- one liners about President Obama and the deficit that sounded like material Jay Leno's writers had faxed over from L.A."
"He still looked nervous...His eyes locked onto the cue cards more frequently than at us."
Ofcourse he was a nervous, it was his first day as a late night talk show host! Let's give the guy the break he needs because chances are he will open up and his show will be great.
Did you guys watch his debut? You be our critic, what did you think?

Three of the Nobu locations in London have been targeted by Greenpeace after activists caught the restaurant serving Atlantic bluefin tuna and reportedly not telling the customers what they were eating. That particular fish is extremely endangered, and the World Wildlife Fund has called for a ban on its sale. They accuse De Niro of making a lot of money off these endangered species.
Willie Mackenzie of Greenpeace said: "Nobu and Robert De Niro are clearly making a great deal of money serving up endangered fish and they were reported this year as trying to sell a controlling share of their restaurant chain at a valuation of $400 million.
Now it turns out that Nobu's celebrity clientele are unwittingly pushing bluefin tuna towards extinction, and they should demand that the restaurant stop serving it up immediately. If you were served up something labeled as 'steak' in a restaurant, and only found out later that you had eaten tiger or rhinoceros meat, you would be outraged."
They do have a point! Who do you side with?
