Leonardo DiCaprio’s Bodyguard Bash-Up
Then buzz it up

Israel hates Hamas, but it sure loves Leonardo DiCaprio. To prove it's heart is true, Israel has sent hordes and hordes of photographers to escort Leonardo every single place that he goes whilst in their lovely little country.
Leonardo DiCaprio's got a super-hot Israeli model girlfriend you see, one Bar Refaeli, and the pair flew into Israel in the middle of the night to avoid detection. As luck would have it though, the flight over was featuring a last season of Growing Pains marathon. By the time the couple landed every traveller onboard was pointing at them with the words 'Carol Seaver' right there on their lips.
Actually, their luck was worse than that. The truth is Leonardo DiCaprio and Bar Refaeli's flight was jam-packed with paparazzi who were all over the couple as soon as they landed. And all the next day. And the day after that. Then DiCaprio's bodyguards hit their boiling points and Jewish teeth began to fly.
Well, that's how we imagine the fight went anyway.
We know for sure that Leonardo DiCaprio is definitely not dating Sienna Miller. We also know for sure that he's gonna make Enron wish it'd never been born. Or incorporated. Or whatever.
Oh, and we know Leo and his girlfriend Bar Refaeli have been the ravaged victims of a billion camera lenses since they landed in Israel last Sunday - and their bodyguards must have gotten tired of not being able to finish a single popsicle. The happy couple were visiting Jerusalem's Western Wall tunnels with an entourage when the madness broke. Bodyguards started hitting photographers, photographers started snapping pictures with their hands that weren't mangled and twisted, and even the model's father supposedly got in on the beat down. One photog put it like this:
"Bar Refaeli's father bent my arm. After I kept taking pictures with the other hand, he punched me in the chest. I fell, and my camera broke. Other photographers' equipment was also damaged by the bodyguards' violence. They were out of control, one of them broke an Associated Press photographer's nose."
Now put down your justice-seeking torches lynch mob - every tale has two sides. As Bar Refaeli's father tells it:
"Dozens of photographers swarmed us and trampled us, it could have been a disaster. Even when we were in the car, I told Bar to lie under the seat because I was afraid the photographers would break the windows. Even DiCaprio is still shocked by this embarrassing and disgusting display. He is used to paparazzi photographers but has never seen such unruliness. Bar and I are always telling him how beautiful and safe Israel is, and this is what he sees when he comes for a personal visit to the Western Wall."
Well we think the picture clickers can't really be blamed. Why, at this very moment our own cell phone holds pictures of Seal and Heidi Klum, Q-Tip and Michele Daves, and a homeless guy with a fistful of ones and our inside-out sock in his mouth. What we're saying here is this - homeless people will do anything for money.
