Nikki Glaser obliterates Leonardo DiCaprio’s dating life at Golden Globes 2026

American stand-up comedian Nikki Glaser pulled no punches at the 2026 Golden Globes, zeroing in on Leonardo DiCaprio’s famously scrutinized love life and turning it into one of the night’s most talked about moments.

The 41-year-old comedian, hosting the ceremony at the Beverly Hilton on Sunday night, spent the evening playfully roasting Hollywood’s elite. But it was the 51-year-old One Battle After Another star who found himself squarely in her crosshairs.

After praising DiCaprio’s decades-spanning career and award-winning achievements, Glaser abruptly shifted gears and highlighted his pattern of dating much younger women.

She referenced his current relationship with 27-year-old Italian supermodel Vittoria Ceretti before delivering the line that stunned the room: "The most impressive thing is that you’ve been able to accomplish all of this before your girlfriend turned 30."

The broadcast instantly cut to DiCaprio, who appeared visibly uncomfortable as he avoided eye contact, smiled tightly, and offered an awkward thumbs up. His uneasy reaction quickly went viral and became one of the defining images of the night.

Glaser followed up by acknowledging the jab, apologizing for what she called a "cheap" joke, and noting that the famously private actor gives the public very little material to work with outside of his dating history.

She then continued the roast with another callback, asking whether "pasta, pasta, and more pasta" was still his favorite food, referencing a teen magazine interview from the 1990s. DiCaprio responded with an amused "Yes," sending the audience into laughter.

Ceretti did not attend the Golden Globes with DiCaprio. In fact, she has skipped every awards show this season despite his prominence as a major awards contender for One Battle After Another.

Just hours before Glaser’s onstage jab, DiCaprio had been spotted dining quietly at celebrity favorite E Baldi in Beverly Hills on Saturday night, accompanied by Ceretti.

The Oscar winner is 24 years older than the model, and the pair have been romantically linked since August 2023. Their relationship began just two months after Ceretti finalized her divorce from DJ Matteo Milleri.

In March, Ceretti spoke publicly about the relationship for the first time in an interview with Vogue France. She revealed that they met "in Milan. But I prefer not to go into details."

She also shared that she admires DiCaprio’s 1997 blockbuster Titanic, which was released the year before she was born, saying: "Who hasn't seen it? Or didn't like it? It's an iconic film..."

Ceretti addressed the issue of jealousy within their relationship, explaining: "It's something you learn: if what you're experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there's no reason to be alarmed. Because love protects and gives confidence."

DiCaprio’s romantic history has long fascinated the public and includes high-profile relationships with Camila Morrone, Gigi Hadid, Nina Agdal, Kelly Rohrbach, Gisele Bündchen, and Bar Refaeli.

Professionally, the actor faces fierce competition this awards season from Timothée Chalamet for Marty Supreme, George Clooney for Jay Kelly, Ethan Hawke for Blue Moon, Lee Byung-hun for No Other Choice, and Jesse Plemons for Bugonia.

One Battle After Another has emerged as a major contender, earning nominations for best motion picture musical or comedy, best director, best actress, multiple supporting acting categories, best screenplay, and best original score.
