Los Angeles — Comedian Nikki Glaser has revealed that Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio responded to her now-viral roast at the 2026 Golden Globes in the most charming way possible — by sending her baskets full of pasta. The lighthearted gesture came after Glaser's monologue skewering DiCaprio's well-known habit of dating women under 30 became one of the most talked-about moments of the awards season.

The Joke That Broke the Internet

Glaser, who hosted the Golden Globes for the second time at the 2026 ceremony, delivered a monologue that quickly went viral. Her most memorable line targeted DiCaprio, who attended as a nominee for the film One Battle After Another.

She quipped: What a career Leonardo DiCaprio has had. Countless iconic performances, you have worked with every great director, you have won three Golden Globes and an Oscar, and the most impressive thing is you were able to accomplish all that before your girlfriend turned 30.

The joke landed hard — but Glaser herself acknowledged it was not exactly fresh territory. She followed up by saying she tried not to make it but admitted there is simply nothing else publicly known about him.

The Teen Beat Magazine Connection

What made the moment truly special was Glaser's callback to a 1991 Teen Beat magazine survey filled out by a young DiCaprio. In it, he reportedly listed his favorite food as pasta, pasta and more pasta.

According to Variety, internet sleuths quickly tracked down the original Teen Beat article, confirming the pasta reference was entirely real. The discovery added an extra layer of humor and authenticity to the already viral moment.

Glaser later admitted on The Tonight Show that she had been struggling to craft a compelling DiCaprio joke because his dating history has been a punchline for years. She noted the joke has been around longer than his current girlfriend has been alive.

DiCaprio's Classy Response

Rather than brushing off the public ribbing, DiCaprio apparently leaned into the humor. Glaser revealed that the Oscar-winning actor sent her pasta baskets as a good-natured response to the roast — a move that earned him widespread praise online for being a genuinely good sport.

The gesture underscores a side of DiCaprio that rarely surfaces publicly — given that the Titanic and The Revenant star is famously private and rarely grants in-depth interviews. The pasta callback made the exchange feel personal, self-aware, and unexpectedly wholesome.

Glaser Set to Return as Host in 2027

Nikki Glaser's performance has been so well-received that she is already confirmed to host the Golden Globes for a third consecutive time in 2027, according to Variety. Her ability to roast Hollywood's biggest names while keeping the tone celebratory has made her one of the most sought-after awards show hosts in recent memory.

This comes amid a broader trend of comedians reclaiming the awards show hosting chair after years of controversy surrounding edgy humor at major ceremonies. Glaser's success signals that audiences and studios alike are once again embracing sharp, personality-driven hosting.

As DiCaprio continues to generate buzz for One Battle After Another and Glaser prepares for her 2027 Golden Globes return, the pasta saga has cemented itself as one of Hollywood's most endearing award-season stories in recent years.
