Leonardo DiCaprio’s candid interaction with another attendee at the Golden Globes has the internet going crazy.

On Sunday, the Globes' official TikTok account posted a clip of the legendary actor, captioning it, “Enjoy 30 seconds of Leonardo DiCaprio.”

While what he says isn’t audible, amateur lip readers have surmised that DiCaprio is impersonating someone's reaction to KPop Demon Hunters winning an sward. In the video, he's seen pointing at another guest, suggesting he was watching them from afar

According to Deadline, one of the theories is that Leo said, “I was watching you with the K-pop thing, you were like, ‘Is that, who is that, oh K-pop.’” Some have speculated that he was talking to his One Battle After Another co-star, Chase Infiniti, who is a K-pop fanatic, after KPop Demon Hunters took home two award.

The moment—which happened during a commercial break—is already sparking reactions, particularly because it's rare for DiCaprio to be so candid, as the 51-year-old is typically guarded in public.

While DiCaprio lost the best actor in a musical or comedy award to Timothée Chalamet for Marty Supreme, Teyana Taylor won her first Golden Globe for best supporting actress in a motion picture for her portrayal of Perfidia Beverly Hills in One Battle After Another.
