Comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish shared a hilarious and candid story about meeting Leonardo DiCaprio during her appearance on SiriusXM’s “The Howard Stern Show.” Haddish recalled how she told DiCaprio she wanted to get intimate with him, but only if he was in character from his 1993 film “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape.”

“I told him, ‘I want to f***, but only if you’re in character from ‘What’s Eating Gilbert Grape,'” Haddish revealed, referring to DiCaprio’s role as Arnie Grape, a young boy with special needs. The confession left Howard Stern both humored and incredulous. Stern’s co-host, Robin Quivers, chimed in, saying Leonardo was “cute even then as Arnie.”
The “Girls Trip” actress added that she likes her men “with a little bit of disability.” While Haddish admitted she’s still working on convincing DiCaprio to sleep with her, she joked that at 44, she’s probably too old for him and not his type.
Leonardo DiCaprio has been dating Italian model Vittoria Ceretti since last August, and it remains to be seen if their relationship will continue as she recently turned 26.
If DiCaprio isn’t interested, Haddish has also expressed her admiration for Michael B. Jordan, Usher, Brad Pitt, and Henry Cavill.
