He was already ‘loose’ since he was 19 years old, said Gwyneth Paltrow about Leonardo DiCaprio
Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed that she turned down an onslaught from friend and colleague Leonardo DiCaprio when the two were younger. The 50-year-old celebrity said she ran away from the heartthrob in the 1990s because he had already consolidated his reputation as a womanizer at the time.
Paltrow spoke about DiCaprio in participation in the podcast 'Call Her Daddy', by presenter Alex Cooper. She denied rumors that the two had a relationship but assumed that the colleague tried to make the affair happen.
"No, I never got Leo," Paltrow said when asked about the rumors. “There was a time when he even tried. But he already had, you know… He was already ‘loose’ since he was 19”.
In this case, Paltrow used the expression 'loose with the goods', here translated as 'loose', but which can also be used, pejoratively, to refer to a "promiscuous" person.
Currently amid rumors of an alleged relationship with Russian model Irina Shayk, DiCaprio is famous for his relationships with younger women. In the 1990s, a period referred to by Paltrow in the interview, he dated models Bridget Hall, Naomi Campbell, Kristen Zang, Helena Christensen, and Natasha Henstridge.
In the same interview with Alex Cooper, Gwyneth Paltrow also recalled her relationships with Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck in the 1990s, making a series of comparisons between them.
Asked by Alex Cooper which of the two she considered better in bed, Pitt or Affleck, Paltrow replied: "That's hard as hell. Because Brad was the greatest love of my life at the time. And Ben was technically excellent.”
Then she hesitated, amidst laughter, "I can't believe my daughter is listening to me." When asked which of the two she was the best kisser, she replied: "They were both great kissers."
Winner of the Oscar for best actress in 1999, for 'Shakespeare In Love (1998), Paltrow was married between 2003 and 2016 to musician Chris Martin, the father of her two children. She has been married since 1998 to TV producer Brad Falchuk.
