Leonardo DiCaprio joins A-listers at Robert De Niro's 82nd birthday celebrations
Leonardo DiCaprio joined other A-listers including directors Martin Scorsese and George Lucas for Robert De Niro 's 82nd birthday celebrations over the weekend. The actor, 50, was seen arriving to The Greenwich Hotel in NYC on Sunday alongside other guests. Robert officially turned one year older on August 17 - which he rung in with what appeared to be an intimate gathering with close friends and loved ones in New York City. Leonardo kept a lowkey profile as he arrived to the venue in a pair of black trousers paired with a black jacket. The star completed the look with a pair of black sneakers and added a black cap on top of his head. He was accompanied by his father George - who carried a wrapped gift in his hand - and stepmom Peggy. Leonardo's niece Normandie Farrar also joined the group and was stylishly casual in a short-sleeved, white shirt paired with denim jeans. Leonardo and Normandie have been spotted spending time together - and late last year, the pair grabbed dinner with Robert as well as his 46-year-old baby mama Tiffany Chen. Martin was another guest to arrive to the hotel for the celebrations, and sported a white button up as well as a pair of black trousers. The filmmaker completed the ensemble by layering a blue suit jacket over his shirt and slipped into a pair of brown leather shoes. Robert has collaborated with the director on a number of films over the years, including Taxi Driver (1976), Goodfellas (1990), Casino (1995) and The Irishman (2019). Back in 2023, Martin reflected on his friendship with the actor and how the pair came to working with each other. Speaking to the Hindustan Times, Martin said: 'With Bob De Niro, it's a formative relationship. It goes back to when we were 16 years old. 'But we'd lost track of each other. I didn't know he wanted to act and he didn't know I started directing.' However, they were introduced to each other once again when they worked on the 1973 crime drama Mean Streets. Martin continued: 'When we did Mean Streets, we were reintroduced to each other by Brian De Palma. 'By doing Mean Streets and Taxi Driver together, we found that we were drawn to the same subject matter, same psychological and emotion conflicts in people, in characters, and in ourselves. A certain trust was developed.' Another director, George, was also in attendance at the birthday celebrations. George and Robert have not collaborated on a movie project but have still developed a close friendship. When arriving to The Greenwich Hotel on Sunday, the director was snapped stepping out of a sleek SUV while wearing a plaid shirt with navy sweatpants. George opted for a pair of comfy Nike sneakers as he made his way towards the main entrance. Robert's baby mama Tiffany was also briefly spotted, and showed off what appeared to be a unique temporary tattoos on her right arm. One image appeared to be of both herself and Robert. Before the bash officially kicked off, an array of gree3n and silver balloons were spotted being taken inside of the hotel. During an interview for Who's Talking To Chris Wallace last year, Robert reflected on aging. When asked how he feels about getting older, the actor simply replied, 'I have no choice,' before adding, 'Embrace it. Embrace whatever you've been given.' The star is a father to daughter Gia, two, whom he had with Tiffany. He is also dad to six other children: Drena, 53, Raphael, 48, twins Julian and Airyn, 29, Elliot, 27, and Helen Grace, 13. Robert - who has 120 credits to his name over a 60 year period - also recently made a bold career decision on filmmaking. The native New Yorker is investing in the city he loves and has served as a muse in his career as he just opened a 775,000-square-foot production studio in Queens with his son Raphael De Niro and business partner Adam Gordon. Speaking to the New York Times earlier this month, Robert said: 'I have always loved shooting in New York. There's no place like New York.' The film industry has suffered in the state in recent years which have seen strikes, the cutting of workforce, and productions moving out of state. Robert is hoping to change that after New York Governor Kathy Hochul approved $800million in film subsidies for productions in the state. Now, the star is hoping to exclusively film in the state as he told the publication: 'It's always better to shoot in New York, period.'

Maria Sharapova launches new business venture as former Wimbledon champion's net worth hits £130million
MARIA SHARAPOVA has launched a new business venture - selling furniture. It is not the former Wimbledon champion's first foray into the field, either. 2 2 In 2021, a year after retiring from tennis, Sharapova released the Maria Collection, a line of furniture for Rove Concepts. This time around she has produced designs suitable for the modern home office. Sharapova moved into business after hanging up her racket and she has felt inspired to mix things up in order to get rid of boring boardroom furniture. She told Architectural Digest: "I thought that this could be the modern boardroom. "I've been in several boardrooms since I retired five years ago, and I wouldn't say they're the prettiest things." She added: "In all the things that I did outside of the sport, people were initially like, 'Does she have permission to do that?'" Sharapova's business ventures have allowed her to build a net worth of £130million. She recently placed her mansion, which boasts an indoor bowling alley, up for sale for £18.5million. The Russian called time on her career at the age of 32 in 2020 after winning five Grand Slams. Sharapova retired a shadow of the player she was since returned from her drugs ban for meldonium in April 2017. Maria Sharapova in tears and swears as tennis legend struggles with spicy sauce on Hot Ones The doping suspension understandably damaged her reputation and brand, and she dropped to 373rd in the world.
