London, June 12 (IANS) "Mean Girls" actress Amanda Seyfried admits that she insulted actor Leonardo DiCaprio by asking him to "age himself up" and portray as her father in the next film.
The "Titanic" star is producing Seyfried's upcoming film "Red Riding Hood". When the actress met DiCaprio to talk about the movie, she tried to persuade him to take an onscreen role, contactmusic.com reports.
But DiCaprio was unimpressed when he realised Seyfried wasn't asking him to play her love interest, instead she wanted him to play the role of her father.
"Unfortunately he's not in it. I asked him if he would play my dad but he got insulted! He said, 'I don't do male leads in love stories any more'. And I said, 'I wasn't talking about the male leads, I was talking about my dad. You're what, 35? Age yourself up a bit," said Seyfried.
