DiCaprio visits pontiff

THERE have been 13 popes named Leo in the history of the Roman Catholic Church but perhaps none of them was as famous as the Leo who entered the Vatican yesterday — Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio. DiCaprio, 41, who is known as Leo, was received by Pope Francis, the Vatican said, without giving details.

A Vatican source said he believed the audience was connected to their mutual concern about the environment and climate change.
