Leonardo DiCaprio was one of the big stars of the night at the Critics Choice Awards, but his arrival was marked by an unexpected incident that almost prevented him from attending the ceremony. According to the Argentine News Agency, the actor almost missed the awards ceremony after getting stuck in St. Barts due to an air traffic control problem that affected Southern California for several hours. The Oscar winner arrived just in time for presenter Chelsea Handler to joke about his scare during her opening monologue. 'Leo barely survived tonight because he got stuck on a boat in St. Barts,' she said and added, 'It was like the Titanic, but worse, because Jeff Bezos was there.' After ringing in the New Year in the idyllic location with the Amazon founder and his wife Lauren Sanchez Bezos, the actor had to miss the Palm Springs International Film Festival on January 3 due to the incident.
