Not
one
or
two,
but
after
more
than
two
decades
of
wait,
Leonardo
DiCaprio
won
Oscars
2016
under
the
Best
Actor
category
for
his
movie
'The
Revenant'!
Just
the
idea
of
it
gives
you
goosebumps,
doesn't
it?
Well,
his
acceptance
speech
will
move
you
even
more.
Here's
what
it
was
like
when
Leonardo
received
his
first
Academy
Award!
As
the
big
wins
under
different
categories
were
announced
at
the
Oscars
2016,
which
happened
today,
February
29,
2016
in
Los
Angeles,
everybody
only
waited
for
this
one
moment.
The
moment
when
the
award
for
the
Best
Actor
was
announced,
and
it
seems
like
the
long
wait
was
worth
it.
The
actress
Julianna
Moore
represented
the
award,
and
she
took
a
good
amount
of
time
before
making
the
big
announcement.
When
it
was
revealed
by
the
actress
that
Leonardo
was
taking
home
the
golden
man,
the
crowd
was
overwhelmed.
And
when
Leonardo
took
to
the
stage,
he
received
a
standing
ovation
by
the
audience.
After
having
been
nominated
six
times
for
Oscars,
five
for
acting
and
one
for
producing
'The
Wolf
of
Wall
Street',
Leonardo
had
the
best
speech
ever
for
not
only
the
audience,
but
the
entire
planet.
Following
the
extended
applause,
he
made
a
point
to
thank
his
fellow
nominees,
the
vast
and
crew
of
'The
Revenant'
and
the
directors
he's
worked
with
previously.
What
touched
us
more
than
his
big
win,
was
his
brilliant
acceptance
speech.
Being
the
environmentalist
that
he
is,
he
spoke
about
the
most
important
issue
prevalent
in
today's
world.
He
said,
'Climate
change
is
real,
it
is
happening
right
now,
it
is
the
most
urgent
threat
facing
our
entire
speices
and
we
need
to
work
collectively
and
stop
procrastinating.'
'We
need
to
support
leaders
around
the
world...
who
speak
for
all
of
humanity.'
he
added.
We
couldn't
be
more
proud
of
Leonardo
or
his
mind
blowing
performing
in
'The
Revenant'.
Revenant
had
a
total
of
12
nominations,
out
of
which
it
bagged
three
categories,
including
Leonardo's
win.
While
we
celebrate
this
big
moment,
let's
have
a
look
at
Leonardo
at
the
Oscars
from
the
previous
years.
