Thursday 8th July 2010 - Inception World Premiere
Leonardo DiCaprio - in the flesh. We were told before speaking to him that we would have one question only and that if we were interviewing somebody else when he approached us he would go round and not come back: "Leonardo never goes back". We ensured we had a clear run of two or three journalists in front just in case. And what was he like? Taller than I expected. And somehow even more handsome. I've only watched the video of him smiling at me several hundred times. Not too bad.

I also spoke to Ellen Page and Marion Cottilard. Marion was as beautiful in the flesh as you'd think, and very thoughtful. She took her time answering questions and seemed uninhibited by the media training that makes other celebrities rehearsed and stuffy. Ellen was just as tiny as you'd think. And very humble.




P.S. Here's Leonardo just after I interviewed him. Wondering if he picked the wrong girl? Sorry Bar.
