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'."

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 always knew that fugly face was from being beaten by a crack pipe.
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 think he's done plenty of drugs.
that corner is pretty shitty. well, I mean, except that now they're trying to make it into upscale strip malls...

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 who knows does not speak.
He who speaks does not know.

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!
^^ LOL. That's too bad cause I kinda like to think he totally isn't down with being in the limelight. Oh well. They are all the same, really in Hollywood
