The shocking reason Kim Kardashian and Leonardo DiCaprio were once interviewed by the FBI
This is absolutely bonkers
Back in 2023 it was revealed that in 2018 and 2019 both Kim Kardashian and Leonardo DiCaprio were interviewed by the FBI, but what was the reason?
Well, in 2013 Leonardo DiCaprio appeared in The Wolf of Wall Street, with the film being financed by a man called Jho Low, who was later embroiled in a scandal around Malaysia’s sovereign wealth fund.
Prosecutors claimed that Jho Low was behind the wealth scandal, which involved billions of sovereign funds being channeled through shell companies and offshore bank accounts into his bank account instead.
After becoming an international fugitive, he was sentenced in absentia to 10 years in a Kuwait prison.
Bloomberg revealed at the time that the FBI had interviewed Leonardo DiCaprio in 2018 about the nature of his relationship with Jho Low.
Jho had given Leonardo a number of gifts over the years including Marlon Brando’s $600,000 Oscar, and a $9 million painting, all of which he reportedly handed over to the authorities as part of the investigation.
Documents reportedly show that Leonardo was sure his managers had vetted Jho before he was allowed to finance The Wolf of Wall Street, leading to their friendship.
The FBI collected thousands of emails and messages between Leonardo and Jho over a period of five years as part of the investigation.
However, Leonardo DiCaprio wasn’t the only one interviewed about their friendship with Jho, as the FBI also contacted Kim Kardashian.
Kim was interviewed about her friendship with Jho, with her recalling she stayed up until 5am in a Las Vegas casino with him, according to documents.

She explained that he refused her attempts to return $350k of winnings, and documents show she later picked up the winnings in trash bags filled with $100 bills.
Kim also recalled that he offered to give her a Basquiat painting, but Kanye West made her ask for a Monet instead.
The FBI documents reportedly stated: “Both Kardashian and West found Low to be very fickle when giving gifts and never expected to actually receive a painting from Low.”
