I know what you meant, people think he used Leo-mania (a load of teenage girls wanting to mount him.) to springboard himself and think less of him for it. It's just like Robert Pattinson getting a load of success off the back of Twilight, the difference is Leo has had acting ability ever since he was a teen. I think he used Titanic to propel himself, he shook the posterboy image around 2002 and he never looked back. I don't know how anyone can't like him, he's a great actor AND he seems like a great guy. Always seems polite and talks with such passion for what he does. I have a lot of love for Leo.
