Leonardo DiCaprio has recently opened up to about marriage, films and life as a sex symbol. And the "Body of Lies" star is thrilled to have shed the sex symbol status of his younger days.
"I look at young Zac Efron and think 'Go get it pal, leave me in peace,'" the on-off boyfriend of Israeli model Bar Refaeli revealed. "I was never happy with the teen idol tag at all - never wanted to be a sex symbol or all that stuff - it was the work that appealed to me. Really nothing else."
The "Titanic" star also said he has "total respect" for young stars like the 21-year-old actor. The Golden Globe-winning actor has "total respect for how young stars like Zac handle it all. Really total respect."
But Leo confessed he is still not ready for marriage just yet. "I get asked that all the time and yeah, it kind of makes me think I should grow up a bit really," he said. "I believe in marriage and all that for sure, but have I met the right person yet? Well, I will let you know when it happens."
