DiCaprio fights back: Laser tactics against paparazzi in Rome
On Wednesday evening at around 8:30 PM, an unusual incident involving one of Hollywood's most recognizable actors, Leonardo DiCaprio, occurred in the heart of Rome. According to the ANSA agency, the star's bodyguards used a laser to prevent paparazzi from taking pictures of the actor during his dinner at a restaurant located in the historic part of the city near Via Giulia.
Leonardo DiCaprio, known for his privacy concern, was having dinner in the garden of one of the exclusive restaurants. His presence soon caught the attention of photographers, including the famous 79-year-old Rino Barillari, known as the "king of paparazzi." Attempting to capture any shot of the star, the photographers began taking pictures, which was met with an immediate reaction from his security team.

According to eyewitnesses, DiCaprio's bodyguards used a laser to obstruct the cameras, preventing clear shots from being taken.
This innovative method of deterring paparazzi is becoming increasingly popular among Hollywood stars who wish to protect their privacy from unwanted lenses. During this time, to avoid attention, DiCaprio entered the restaurant's interior, where he could escape prying eyes.

As emphasized by the ANSA agency, the actor only left the venue later, wearing a surgical mask, which further complicated photographers' ability to capture his face. This event highlights the lengths to which stars will go to protect their privacy, especially in public places where their presence quickly attracts media attention.
The protection of privacy among celebrities has long been a topic of discussion. New methods, such as the use of lasers in this instance, indicate the growing need for protection from photographers' constant interest.
