Everyone has bad pictures of themselves that they wish were just deleted and no one can see them again.

Back in 1995, the American actor was a young talent and an aspiring actor and was already a famous celebrity. DiCaprio posed for a feature in a now ceased British magazine,The Face.Although DiCaprio was clicked by one of the best photographers of his generation, David LaChapelle, the pictures were a bit questionable though even for the 90s.
