Leonardo DiCaprio roasted for yacht vacation with Jeff Bezos during cringe Critics Choice Awards moment
Lavish Leo.Leonardo DiCaprio got roasted at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards on Sunday night for his recent yacht excursion with Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos.Host Chelsea Handler took aim at DiCaprio during her opening monologue, joking about how the Oscar winner had to miss the Palm Springs International Film Festival the night before due to travel restrictions related to the US airstrikes on Venezuela.
“Leo almost didn’t make it tonight because he was trapped on a boat in St.Barts,” Handler, 50, said.“It was just like the Titanic, but worse… because Jeff Bezos was there,'” she quipped.
The camera flashed to DiCaprio laughing at his seat along with the rest of the audience.Handler’s jab at DiCaprio got a big reaction from viewers on social media.“She ate this one thing,” one fan wrote on X.“The best joke of the night,” someone else tweeted.On Reddit, a person wrote, “Roast him harder next time, Chelsea.”“This man needs to be clowned on like this more for being an “environmentalist” while being buddies with Jeff Bezos,” someone else wrote.“Leo just relieved its not a dating under 25 joke,” another fan quipped.A different person defended DiCaprio, writing, “Leo never squirms.
At least he also has the balls to show up and take the jokes.”“Leo actually doesn’t seem to mind being roasted,” someone else insisted.DiCaprio was up for the Critics Choice Award for Best Actor for his role in “One Battle After Another,” but he lost to “Marty Supreme” star Timothée Chalamet.“One Battle After Another,” however, took home best picture.
A few days before the award show, DiCaprio was spotted on a $250 million superyacht off the coast of St.Barts with his 27-year-old girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, Bezos, and Bezos’ wife, Lauren Sánchez.The “Don’t Look Up” actor sported a basic white T-shirt, gray shorts and sunglasses in the photos.
