Leonardo DiCaprio takes home his first Oscar

It's been 84 years... That's how Titanic's Rose Dewitt Bukater started her story about how she met Jack Dawson. It's felt equally long for Leonardo DiCaprio to finally receive his award for best actor for his role in The Revenant.

DiCaprio, who was robbed of Oscar in 1994 for What's Eating Gilbert Grape when he was just 20 years old, then three more times for 2004's The Aviator, 2006's Blood Diamond and in 2013 for The Wolf Of Wall Street, remained calm. In fact , his speech was a perfect example of what a intelligent, smart man he really is. Instead of using his prime time to perhaps criticize the academy for taking way, way too long, he used it to bring awareness to Global environmental problem.

Did he intentionally flipped the academy or was it coincidental we'll probably never know, but if he meant to, then #sorrywerenotsorryBecause he rocks with talent and with speaking truth to power #LeoForPresident
