‘Does Leo Wanna Smash?’: What Nikki Glaser Thought After Leonardo DiCaprio’s Gift

Leonardo DiCaprio sent three baskets of pasta to Nikki Glaser after her memorable joke about him at the Golden Globe Awards. She revealed that she usually sends flowers as a kind gesture to most celebrities she jokes about, and who take it in good spirit. However, DiCaprio returned the favor with his favorite dish instead, which immediately made Glaser jokingly wonder whether the actor might want to “smash.”

Leonardo DiCaprio sent Nikki Glaser three baskets of pasta

During her recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Glaser reflected on her moment at the Golden Globes when she made a joke about DiCaprio. She shared the inspiration behind the joke and talked about the thank-you gift she received after sending him flowers.

She said that DiCaprio sent her a pasta, and a part of her was like, “Does Leo wanna smash?” Realizing that she might not be his type, she added, “the type of girl he goes for, he wouldn’t send pasta to. Like, it was, like, a dry pasta.”

Glaser revealed that it was Mena pasta. “He would have maybe, Spaghetti O’s maybe I would have been more his type. -Oh, my God, no. -Maybe a crib full of, you know, Dunkaroos and Go-Gurt, I would have been like, ‘Oh, he’s into me,'” she elaborated, jokingly referring to how she’s not his type.

She mentioned her struggles to make a joke about DiCaprio. This is because she didn’t want to repeat the young girlfriend jokes, as they had been going on for way too long. However, then it clicked to her that no one knows anything else about DiCaprio, which she found could be a potential joke.

“So I was like, ‘Let’s try to find, like, this guy doesn’t reveal anything about himself. Let’s find something he’s revealed. And so me and my writing team found a ‘Teen Beat’ article from 1991 where he revealed that I was like, ‘Leo, we don’t know anything about you,'” she explained. She said that the only thing people knew about him was that he liked pasta, which he only revealed in the 1991 article.
