Leonardo DiCaprio and his widely publicised dating history found themselves on the receiving end of the sharp tongue of… Spongebob Squarepants.

The Hollywood icon, 49, was pictured enjoying this year’s Super Bowl LVIII which saw the Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime and win their third Super Bowl in five years.

As the biggest event in the American sports calendar, many places went all out celebrating and showing the star-studded game featuring a glittering halftime performance from Usher.

Nickelodeon provided some of the most bizarre coverage of the Super Bowl with a Spongebob Squarepants livestream, featuring the titular yellow sponge himself as well as bestie Patrick Star.

When the Krusty Krab icon spotted Killers Of The Flower Moon’s DiCaprio in the crowd, he couldn’t help but make a dig at his dating history, which has often been criticised as he repeatedly dates women in their early-to-mid 20s.

‘Leonardo DiCaprio, 25 – that’s his dating history,’ he joked as the camera panned to show the actor with his pal Tobey Maguire.

The strange interaction saw many take to social media to express their confusion as well as join in with the roasting.

@KitanaPrime added: ‘SpongeBob with commentary shots was NOT on my #SuperBowl bingo card 😭😭😭’ – honestly, same.’

@abnormallykenz echoed the same sentiment, writing: ‘One thing I never thought would happen or that I would witness in my lifetime is SpongeBob SquarePants making fun of Leonardo DiCaprio’s dating history during the Super Bowl 😂😭.’

Others branded the coverage from Spongebob and Patrick ‘the greatest commentary team of their lives’ and branded their coverage better than any others.

DiCaprio’s sighting also saw references to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, one of which is named Leonardo, as Michelangelo threw pizza at the screen during the wild coverage.

The Inception star has been romantically linked with Vittoria Ceretti, 25, Camila Morrone, 26, and Victoria Lamas, 24.

Since 1999, when he famously began dating Gisele Bundchen, the actor has seemingly not dated a woman over the age of 25, which has often drawn criticism from fans.
