Zac Efron wants to be like Leonardo DiCaprio

Zac Efron has reportedly revealed that he likes to observe other young actors and learn from their mistakes.

The High School Musical star admitted that he looks to see where other actors go wrong and would like to have a career similar to that of Leonardo DiCaprio.

He told Access Hollywood: "Every time something does happen - and I notice when those things happen - people go through those things and experience that kind of stuff.

"I take note of it, a mental note, 'Wow, that didn't work', so, from that point on I sort of look out for that. I kind of adapt."

Efron went on to explain why he admires DiCaprio: "He's super-talented and grounded and focused and that's everything I want to be in the future.

"He's experienced the good times, the bad times, the scary times and the amazing times and [he's] still escalating. It gives me some hope. it inspires me to keep going."

Bar Refaeli: Marry me now, Leo!

LEONARDO DiCaprio’s sexy girlfriend has started watching sports with him — in a bid to prove she’d make the “ideal wife” — insiders say.

According to a British magazine, supermodel Bar Refaeli is determined to get the Inception star to settle down, so is doing everything she can to please her sports-mad man.

“These two keep breaking up and getting back together,” a source said. “Bar wants Leo to settle down.

“She is willing to try anything, including studying up on his favorite sports — especially basketball and the LA Lakers.

“Bar has become a fixture at the Lakers games and even watches with Leo at his local sports bar, Goal, in Hollywood.

“She decided that if she was going to show him she was the ideal wife, she needed to start watching sports with him.”

Leonardo DiCaprio Ready for Fatherhood!

Leonardo DiCaprio is willing to start celebrating Father's Day. Just not anytime soon.

"Do I want to be a father? Yes, but I think I have a few more years," the Inception star, 35, tells the Swiss newspaper Le Matin. "That said, I don't think I need to have children to play a father in the movies. This feeling is in me, I understand it completely."

He adds, "In my private life, I still have time to become a dad, and I've no desire to rush."

Asked why he is so discrete about his relationship with Israeli beauty Bar Refaeli, even amid (unconfirmed) rumors they plan to wed this fall, DiCaprio says he prefers his press coverage to be about his professional life.

"I want to be an actor just like my role models. Robert De Niro, for example," says DiCaprio, who was seen cycling with Refaeli last weekend in Paris. "Being discreet in his private life has allowed him to be even more credible in different roles on the big screen."

And when it comes to his own career, DiCaprio, whose character in Inception does have children, says, "I like that I've reached an age where I can play more mature responsible characters, and that includes the father of a family."
