Earth Suffers Huge Blow As Leonardo DiCaprio Says He's Off To Mars

It seems that once again Earth is about to lose one of it's most loved celebrities, Leonardo DiCaprio. No, he's not dead, nor is he on the cusp of death, but he does want to head off to Mars.

Recently, certified madman Elon Musk declared that he wants people to die for him as he attempts to send people to Mars in the next few years. The risk of death on the voyage to the Red Planet is high, but Musk doesn't care as he believes getting to Mars would create an escape route for humans from an inevitable apocalypse.

Another who seemingly doesn't care, is Leo. Maybe living there is preferable to a Trump administration on Earth?

Leo was the White House's South By South Lawn event recently, with Obama and climate scientist Dr. Katharine Hayhoe.

"If you're a human living on this planet - which most of us are, yeah?" Hayhoe said during her speech, before continuing to say while laughing: "As long as we haven't signed up for the trip to Mars - I don't want to know if anyone has - I think you're crazy."

The 41-year-old actor then piped up by saying: "I did.". Obama then added: "I think he'll acknowledge he's crazy."

Please don't go, Leo.

He could obviously be taking the piss, and given that he's such an environmentalist, it's probable he wouldn't leave until Earth is a decent place to live.
