America Ferrera Remembers The Time She Met Leonardo DiCaprio in 2007

Buy Me A Coffee

Picture this: America Ferrera, unstoppable force of fabulousness, finds herself face-to-face with none other than Leonardo DiCaprio. Yep, that Leo, the heartthrob of many a teenage dream, including America’s. Now, hold onto your hats ’cause this encounter is a rollercoaster ride from start to finish!

Our heroine, fresh off her first-ever Oscar nomination, is riding high on cloud nine. But let’s rewind a bit to the 2007 Screen Actors Guild Awards, where America strutted her stuff and bagged herself a shiny trophy for her role in “Ugly Betty.” Feeling like she owned the joint, she decides to grace Leo with a casual “hello.” Smooth, right?

Well, not quite. In a twist that could only happen in Hollywood, America, in all her glory, promptly flees the scene, rounds the corner, and bursts into tears. Yep, you heard that right. Cue the waterworks! Her poor hubby, Ryan Piers Williams, is left scratching his head, wondering if he should be proud or mortified. Spoiler alert: it’s definitely the latter.

America, in her infinite wisdom, decides to share this gem of a story on Late Night with Seth Myers. As she recounts her brush with Leo, the audience is in stitches, and America can’t help but laugh at her own expense. “I hope Leonardo DiCaprio never sees this,” she quips between giggles. Oh, America, if only you knew the internet had other plans!
