After a video of the Oscar winner flamboyantly imitating someone during a commercial break at the Golden Globes went viral and sparked theories about what he was talking about, popular TikToker and lipreader Jackie Gonzalez broke down exactly what he was saying.

A candid moment of actor Leonardo DiCaprio at the recent Golden Globes went viral for the actor's over the top mannerisms and facial expressions.

The video snippet left people laughing, but it also left them wondering what exactly he was saying. The only word everyone seemed to decipher was "K-pop," a genre of popular music originating in South Korea.


In case you missed the viral Leo video, here it is:

Luckily for those of us that don't read lips, there are folks on TikTok willing to share their skills.

Billing herself as the "human hot mic" and "local deafy," Jackie G (@tismejackieg) routinely shares her skills on both her TikTok and Instagram accounts to reveal what microphones didn't catch.

She shared her interpretation of the DiCaprio viral moment here:

@tismejackieg

@CBS Studios you rang??? I just know he was talking to Teyana 🤭#goldenglobes2026 #leonardodicaprio #lipreading #lipreadinggirl deaf deafcommunity deafculture deafawareness hardofhearing hoh signlanguage tismejackieg Disclaimer: Lipreading is not a reliable form of communication, all statements are alleged. 🫶


Including the disclaimer that lipreading isn't exact, Jackie G shared that Leo told an unknown person:

"I was watching you with the K-pop thing, you were like: ‘Is that… Who’s the K-pop? Are they… Oh, it is!’”

He then laughs, telling the other person:

"We were laughing, you were like: 'Is that… Who is that? K-pop!'"

At the end, DiCaprio turns to sign an autograph, saying:

"Sure, OK, I'll sign."

The over-the-top gestures were Leo mimicking the other person, which Jackie G guessed was his One Battle After Another costar Teyana Taylor.

Though it hasn't been confirmed, others agreed.

The K-pop reference is likely for the Netflix film KPop Demon Hunters, which won two Golden Globes that night.

On Instagram, CBS—which aired the Golden Globes—thanked Jackie G for her insight.


People are still surprised at how animated the usually reserved DiCaprio was.
