Drug overdose death of co-actors horrified Leonardo DiCaprio

Hollywood actor Leonardo Dicaprio has said that he grew in a neighborhood that was filled with drug addicts and has since then never been tempted to dabble in drugs but the death of fellow actors River Phoenix & Heath Ledger has made him sterner to stay away.
He says he was shocked and terrified upon hearing the deaths and says, “I knew drugs were bad, even as a little kid. Seeing the effects that drugs had on my block, seeing heroin addicts, it made me think twice about ever getting involved in drugs. I was so horrified by what I saw drugs do to people that I never wanted anything to do with them. It’s evil. Once you take that step and experiment, drugs take over your life. You are not yourself any more. That’s something I never wanted.”
I don’t know about any deep crease between the eyes but I am seeing some FINE Leo! He is a hottie and great actor. I can’t wait to see the new movie Revoluntary Road. I was so glad he got another acting gig with Kate! They make a good team! Congrats to Kate on winning the Golden Globe.
