One user clapped back at negative commenters, saying, “It’s obviously for a role.”
And another user added, “Wouldn't be so bad if they picked a colour that blended with their skin to look natural. The eyebrows do not look real similar to when people draw their brows in too thick and dark,” to which another replied, “Looks like a Sharpie pen job to me.”

The satirical black-comedy action movie One Battle After Another, adapted from Thomas Pynchon’s 1990 novel Vineland, is already stirring excitement after its trailer debuted in late March. DiCaprio described the project as Anderson tapping into something "politically and culturally that’s burning beneath our psyche."
Directed and written by Paul Thomas Anderson, the film follows Leonardo DiCaprio as a rebellious father who is on an adventurous mission to rescue his kidnapped daughter. With a production budget of $140 million, the movie’s release also marks DiCaprio's first leading role since his Oscar-nominated performance in 2023's Killers of the Flower Moon.

The actor, who recently turned 50 in November, frequently makes headlines with his Italian model girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, who is half his age. Ceretti, 26, was not present at the event, but her name comes up more often than not with DiCaprio over their rumored engagement.
The couple, who have been together since 2023, have managed to keep a low profile with their relationship as their romance continues to grow. After the model was spotted with a ring, the speculations of a possible engagement arose.
Back in November, it was reported that the Hollywood star and the Italian model had gotten engaged. At the time, multiple news outlets reported that Leo was 'finally ready to settle down' and had proposed to the model.

DiCaprio, who was infamous for his string of girlfriends under the age of 25, seems to have broken the curse after finding love with Ceretti, who turned 26 in June 2024.
The Hollywood hunk has previously been linked with a number of beauties under 25, including Camila Morrone, Gisele Bündchen, Gigi Hadid, Victoria Lames, Blake Lively, and more.
The actor was heavily mocked on social media after leaving Morrone one month after she turned 25, ending their four-year relationship in August 2022. Previously, the only woman he had been linked to who was over 25 was Hadid, whom he had been seeing in September 2022.
