LEO IS LONDON BOUND

It’s business before politics for Leonardo DiCaprio.

While the rest of Hollywood is flocking to Park City, Utah to attend the Sundance Film Festival, the camera-shy star is heading to London for the Revolutionary Road premiere — which just so happens to take place on the eve of Barack Obama’s inauguration.

Joined by longtime girlfriend Bar Refaeli and his mother Irmelin, Leo tried to keep a low profile ashe prepared to depart from LAX International Airport en route to the British capital on Saturday night.

The 34-year-old actor faces a TransAtlantic dash from London to Washington, D.C. as he plans to be part of the big bash in America’s capital.

Leo says he’s desperate to be there to witness history as the 44th President of the United States is sworn in and he’s “making every attempt (to get there.)”

    I saw bar at Nobu 3 months ago and i couldn’t tell you how pretty she is in person. Her body is HOT and her face is perfect. I never thought she was all that until i saw her in person, She is a knockout.

    I love to see celebrities traveling like all the others: on commercial planes! Bar is sure a hot woman!

    That is a lot of cleavage for the airport. Can you blame her? She needs to hold on to her meal ticket some way…

    While the government rescue limits the salaries of five top executives from each of the participating financial firms, Congress did nothing to restrict Wall Street firms from using taxpayer funds to boost the compensation of rank-and-file investment bankers. “Some people might argue that these bankers should not be penalized if they weren’t personally involved in the risky mortgage-backed securities,” says Sarah Anderson, project director of the Global Economy Project at the Institute for Policy Studies, a progressive think tank in Washington. “My response is that the average taxpayer wasn’t either, but she is being asked to take a hit.”

    Earlier this month, the government announced that it planned to quickly inject $125 billion of the $700 billion economic rescue package into nine of the nation’s largest financial firms, including Wall Street titans Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, as well as Bank of America, which recently acquired securities firm Merrill Lynch. That, along with other Treasury Department moves to rescue Wall Street, will mean the wallets of many investment bankers will be fatter than they would have been.

    They’re still together? I thought Leo dumped her for good last year. Oh crap! I’ve been busy traveling so I haven’t had time to catch up on all the gossip news so I’m surprised at seeing them together. Oh well, I really hope Leo doesn’t marry this opportunist chick. I’ll be so sad!

    Are you sure that’s Leo’s mother? Except for the blonde hair it doesn’t really look like her. Why would she leave in a separate flight one hour earlier? Unless she hates Bar and can’t stand to be on a flight with her. Ooh I like that scenario. It makes me feel better to believe that. LOL.

    That`s not Leo`s mom. It`s her stepmom and behind her is his dad. But I`m sure his mom went to London, too.
    They did break up last year but then they hooked up again. I love your scenario. :)

[...] Hollywoods Traumpaar Leonardo DiCaprio und Kate Winslet trafen Sonntagabend zur Londoner Premiere des neuen Films “Zeiten des Aufruhrs” bei vier Grad über Null auf dem roten Teppich wieder zusammen. Zuvor war DiCaprio mit seiner deutschen Mutter Irmelin und Freundin Bar Rafaeli eingetroffen. Der 34-jährige will nun aber ganz schnell wieder zurück in die USA, um nicht die Vereidigung des neuen US-Präsidenten am Dienstag zu verpassen: „Ich versuche irgendwie zurück nach Amerika zu kommen und werde dafür alles versuchen.“ Hier Bilder von der Ankunft Sonntagmorgen in Heathrow: FOTOS [...]
