I used to be a celebrity photographer. Mr. DiCaprio and his entourage would get lavish accommodations in the Hamptons from publicist types. The types would want their interests promoted by their association with DiCaprio. I’d be sent to photograph DiCaprio by my agency on behalf of these types.
DiCaprio would duck and hide from me so I couldn’t get a picture. The publicists would pressure me to try anyway. Then they’d leak that DiCaprio was at their nightclub to the NY Post - from whence it would be picked up further. This pattern occurred on more than one occasion.
