Leonardo DiCaprio's Vaping At The SAG Awards Sends The Internet Wild
What’s more important than Leonardo DiCaprio winning the best actor gong at the Screen Actors Guild awards on Saturday?
His vaping, it would seem.
Even though he’s taking that one further step towards the Oscar that’s evaded him for his entire career thus far, it was the e-fag which sent the internet into a tailspin.
Sat next to ‘The Revenant’ director Alejandro González Iñárritu, and with a full plate of grub in front of him, Leo puffed away on his iTaste MVP 2.0.
And soon enough, the picture was working its way around social media in a most viral fashion.

Against all the odds, it even managed to trump this overwhelmingly cute picture of him with the young star of 'Room’, Jacob Tremblay.
Not to mention the shots of him reuniting with his Oscar-winning 'Titanic’ co-star Kate Winslet on the red carpet.
DiCaprio is a big fan of the vape.
He was also spotted with his space cigarette at last year’s Golden Globes, during which there was a similar online hoo-hah.
This is how we should probably remember him from the SAGs though – working on that trophy holding muscle in preparation for the Oscars.
He would appear to be a total shoo-in for the Best Actor gong, going up against Eddie Redmayne for 'The Danish Girl’, Bryan Cranston for 'Trumbo’, Matt Damon for 'The Martian’ and Michael Fassbender for 'Steve Jobs’.
But then again, we’ll only find out exactly how good the Academy members thought he was in gruelling survival flick 'The Revenant’ on the night.
The Oscars happen on February 28, hosted by Chris Rock.
