When we normals lose a bet, we owe a friend some cash. When celebrities lose a bet, they owe their friend a portion of their skin. Exhibit A: Judi Dench, who once had Harvey Weinstein’s name (temporarily) tattooed on her butt. Upping the stakes considerably for Exhibit B is Tom Hardy, who now owes Leonardo DiCaprio a tattoo. A real one.
DiCaprio had bet his co-star that Hardy would receive a Best Supporting Actor nomination at last year’s Oscars for their movie, but Hardy was confident he wouldn’t be receiving any recognition. The wager? Whoever lost would be getting a tattoo of the other’s choice.
Fortunately — and unfortunately — for Hardy, he was nominated for an Oscar, which means he’s due a DiCaprio tattoo, which has long been picked out.
“He wrote, in this really shitty handwriting: ‘Leo knows everything,’” Hardy said in a new interview with Esquire. “Ha! I was like, ‘OK, I’ll get it done, but you have to write it properly.’”

Hardy added, “I haven’t got it yet because it sucks.”
If Hardy’s a real betting man and true to his word, it’s only a matter of time. No stranger to tattoos, he already sports the London skyline, a Chinese dragon, his wife’s name (and his ex-wife’s initials), a Madonna and child and a Buddha with an AK47.
And for the record, Hardy didn’t win the Oscar that night, but DiCaprio went home with the Oscar for Best Actor — and a winning bet.
