    Default Leonardo DiCaprio was beaten up by drug dealers



    Leonardo DiCaprio has revealed that he had a rough childhood and was beaten up by drug dealers near his home in New York.

    The Blood Diamond actor insisted that he will never take drugs because he saw first hand the troubles it got people into.

    DiCaprio said: "My mother and I lived at Hollywood and Western - a drug dealer and prostitute corner. It was pretty terrifying. I got beat up a lot. I saw people having sex in the alleys. I remember I was five years old and this guy with a trenchcoat, needles and crack cornered me.

    "Seeing the devastation on my block, seeing heroin addicts, made me think twice about ever getting involved in drugs. It's evil."

    In his adult life the star claimed that he has no interest in spending lots of money, adding: "I don't really have an extravagant life. I don't fly private jets, I don't have bodyguards and I don't buy crazy things. I'm not the sort of person who tries to be cool or trendy. I'm not interested in being 'a star'."

    It doesn't say where he was beat up by anyone. Damn, I was looking forward to that.

    I can't stand the smarmy DiCaprio.

    Why didn't the drug dealers finish the job?

    Looks like somebody's taking a page out of the Vanilla Ice/Eminem handbook of 'Street Cred for Dummies.'

    I'm not sure I believe him. Lohan said the same thing- that she'd never touch drugs because she experienced it firsthand with her father. And we know about her...

    I've never heard of the corner of Hollywood and Western in NY.

    Did I miss something somewhere?

    I think they meant to say LA not NY.

    He is such a liar! My ex's best friend was good friends with this douche. My ex tapped into said friend's emails/blackberry to give me a chuckle and let me look at Leo's messages. Leo was always asking "is it cool there tonight?" "are there any hot girls?". If he wasn't using coke, everyone around him was. And yes, he does take private jets. ASSHAT!
