Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood… Leonardo DiCaprio gifted Nikki Glaser pasta.

After Glaser poked fun at DiCaprio over his private life during the 2026 Golden Globes, he made sure to let her know there were no hard feelings.

During Tuesday’s episode of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” Glaser explained she “always sends flowers” to the celebrities she “made fun of” — like DiCaprio — after every show she hosts.

This time, the “One Battle After Another” star delivered something back.

“He sent me three baskets of pasta as a thank you,” Glaser revealed. “So funny. So good. Part of me was like, ‘Does Leo want to smash?’ I was like, ‘All right.’”

“The type of girl he goes for, he wouldn’t send pasta to,” she mused before joking, “Spaghetti O’s — maybe I would have been more his type. A crib full of Dunkaroos and Go-Gurt, I would have been like, ‘Oh he’s into me.’ He dates young girls. I can’t stop!”

However, it seems that DiCaprio’s gift was a direct nod to Glaser’s Golden Globes joke.

During her opening monologue at the ceremony, Glaser teased that the only information about DiCaprio’s private life comes from a 1991 Teen Beat magazine.

During the ’90s interview, the then-teenager shared that his favorite food was pasta.

DiCaprio laughed, mouthed “Yes!” and gave Glaser a thumbs up when she spoke about his love for carbs.

While on “The Tonight Show” on Tuesday, Glaser confessed that, at first, she was “struggling” to come up with a joke for the Oscar winner.

“I was like, ‘I don’t want to make a joke about how he has young girlfriends. It’s been done so many times.’ That jokes been going on longer than his current girlfriend’s been alive,” she said. “It’s truly been around forever. I was like, I don’t want to do it.”

“But then there was nothing else to say about him,” Glaser expressed.

That’s when the television host and her team found the Teen Beat article — and the rest is history.

“I was like, ‘Well, that’s kind of funny!’” she recalled.

Despite not mentioning his romantic preferences, DiCaprio has garnered quite a reputation for dating 20-something models over the years.

The 51-year-old was in a four-year relationship with Camila Morrone, 28, until they split in August 2022.

DiCaprio then dated Gigi Hadid, who was 27 at the time. He quickly rebounded with model Vittoria Ceretti, who is 23 years his junior.

Now, the couple, who first sparked romance rumors in August 2023, are still going strong.

“This relationship with Vittoria does feel different and more serious,” an insider told People after the couple attended the 2026 Oscars together.

“He genuinely cares for her. They may not be ready to get married, but for the first time, Leo is open to a serious future.”
