Like you, we sincerely hope Leonardo DiCaprio wins an Oscar tonight because he is more than a deserving winner.

The 41-year-old is hotly tipped to pick up the Best Actor award for his role in the hit film The Revenant, and there'll no doubt be street parties around the globe if he brings home the bacon.

However, despite being linked to (nearly) every hot, blonde, under 25-year-old model on the planet over the years, he's decided to take his mum along to what could be the biggest night of his incredible career.

DiCaprio has already bagged a Golden Globe this year for the same role, so it's looking good for The Wolf of Wall Street star.

During his acceptance speech, he thanked his 73-year-old mum, Irmelin Indenbirken, for helping to put him on the path to stardom.

He said: "I would not be standing up here if it wasn't for this person. I didn't grow up in a life of privilege, I grew up in a very rough neighbourhood in east Los Angeles.

"This woman drove me three hours a day to a different school to show me a different opportunity. It's her birthday today. Mom, happy birthday. I love you very much."

You can do it, Leo!
