Oscar Snub Number 4 For Leonardo DiCaprio


He's proved himself one of the best American actors and he's Martin Scorsese's go-to guy, but out of four Oscar nominations, he has yet to score. Let's take a look at Leo's previous nominations. 

Okay, so Matthew McConaughey was amazing in Dallas Buyers Club. That 40-pound weight loss deserves its own award. But some of us really thought it was Leo's night.

Note to Leo: We think you should do a movie with American Hustle director David O. Russell. Maybe that will help. Or perhaps borrow a play from George Clooney and direct yourself in a movie, like he did with The Monuments Men.

1994 was the year Leo earned his first Oscar nomination, for playing Arnie in What's Eating Gilbert Grape, which also starred Johnny Depp and Juliette Lewis. He was great in the film, but he was young. We understand not giving it to him then since he hadn't earned it yet.

Chris Brown Diagnosed With Bipolar Disorder, Will Stay In Rehab For Another Two Months


Chris Brown appeared in a Los Angeles court on Friday for a progress hearing regarding his assault case against Rihanna, and it was revealed that one of the reasons for the singer's violent behavior is that he's been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

According to court documents, "Mr. Brown became aggressive and acted out physically due to his untreated mental health disorder, severe sleep deprivation, inappropriate self-medicating and untreated PTSD." Though the cause of the PTSD is never explained, we're guessing it stems from Brown's childhood, as the R&B singer previously revealed that he grew up in a violent household.

Brown is now on regular doses of medication, and the rehab facility states that he has learned relaxation exercises and he's tested negative for drugs, including marijuana. And not only that, but the facility says he has been getting up early and putting in a lot of time with community service, adding, "Mr. Brown's attitude has been beyond exemplary in regard to his community service responsibilities."

Brown was ordered to stay in rehab for two more months.

Citizens of Toronto, fear not ... even though your sometimes crack-smoking mayor just touched down in Hollywood to apparently hit up the Oscars -- and after his recent trip to Mardi Gras -- he claims the city is still in good hands.

Rob Ford made his way through a media storm of cameras Saturday night at LAX (video to follow) ... telling our photog he's running political biz from the road -- and even plans to run for office again later this year.

"Crack Mayor" told the Toronto Sun early Saturday morning he was flying to L.A. to attend the Academy Awards ... but when he got to baggage claim Jimmy Kimmel was waiting as his driver ... so this was clearly all for his late night show.

Box Office: Liam Neeson’s ‘Non-Stop’ Powers Past ‘Son of God’


Liam Neeson’s airplane thriller “Non-Stop” soared to a $30 million opening weekend at the box office, holding off a strong challenge from the Biblical saga “Son of God” which rode a wave of grassroots Christian support to a $27 million debut.

Both movies over-performed to end the three-week run at No. 1 of “The Lego Movie,” which crossed the $200 million mark at the domestic box office and finished third with $21 million.
