Leonardo DiCaprio sat among the regular folk while attending Robert De Niro’s conversation with artist JR during the Tribeca Festival at Art basel Miami Beach on Saturday.
DiCaprio, who often opts for VIP treatment, was spotted sitting in the back row of the intimate chat, which was a ticketed event open to the public on a first come, first served basis.
“He was sitting in the audience with everyone else. I think he went largely unnoticed, which is crazy,” a spy tells Pvnew exclusively.
We’re also told DiCaprio was “super engaged” throughout the event.
“He sat in the back and listened and chatted with [De Niro and JR] after the conversation,” our eyewitness shares.
The “Wolf of Wall Street” star wore his signature baseball hat, a face mask and a black bomber jacket to stay under the radar.
De Niro, 80, and DiCaprio, 49, are close friends and co-star in their new Martin Scorsese-directed film, “Killers of the Flower Moon.” They have also collaborated on several other projects over the years including “This Boy’s Life” and “Marvin’s Room.”
During the event, the “Goodfellas” star chatted with the French street artist about his family’s art legacy and shared a sneak peek of an upcoming documentary film, “The Past Goes Fast.”
De Niro shared that he wants to document family memories like his father’s artwork and diaries for his children and grandchildren.
“Originally, I kept [my father’s] studio exactly the way it was after he passed. … I know he loved me very much. I’m happy he’s here, that his works are here. I want his work to live on,” he said of Robert De Niro Sr., who died at the age of 71 in 1993.
The event took place at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden across from the convention center where the annual Miami art fair is held.
Earlier in the week, John Stamos took to the same stage to discuss his memoir, “If You Would Have Told Me,” and pay tribute to his late friend Ralph Cirella, who died last week.
Meanwhile, DiCaprio was heavy on the Miami party circuit throughout Art Week. On Wednesday, he attended the Palm Tree Crew x Peggy Gou Art basel party at new restaurant Casadonna. Alessandra Ambrosio, Ivanka Trump, Jonathan Cheban, Alix Earle and Braxton Berrios were also there.
The next night, DiCaprio hosted an ultra-private fundraiser for his charity, Re:wild, at the Superblue museum, where guests included De Niro, Sean Penn, Tom Brady and Irina Shayk.
DiCaprio and Brady joined forces again Friday night while hitting Wayne and Cynthia Boich’s ridiculously star-studded private mansion party. Other stars in attendance included Dwyane Wade, Venus and Serena Williams, Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, Corey Gamble, Tyga, Harvey Spevak and Google co-founder Sergey Brin. Snoop Dogg and Lil Wayne performed.
