Leonardo DiCaprio, 51, who was named TIME’s Entertainer of the Year, and in an accompanying interview detailed his struggles with balancing being a widely-recognizable star with a desire to have some privacy.
‘It’s been a balance I’ve been managing my whole adult life,’ the 51-year-old said, ‘and still I’m not an expert. I think my simple philosophy is only get out there and do something when you have something to say, or you have something to show for it. Otherwise, just disappear as much as you possibly can.
‘I was like, “OK, how do I have a long career? Because I love what I do, and I feel like the best way to have a long career is to get out of people’s face.”‘
The handsome A-lister seems to never be seen out in public without his identity concealed with the help of a hat and face mask.
DiCaprio started wearing the face mask during the COVID-19 pandemic, and has implemented the covering into his everyday wardrobe ever since.
