What Happened Between Teyana & Leo In The Viral Video
Last month, everyone wanted to know what the tea was between the two after the actors were seen closely chatting at the event.
Leo rested his hand on Teyâs lower back as they spoke. Additionally, the actress wrapped her arms around DiCaprioâs neck as they danced. Teyana seemingly played in his hair as they looked into each otherâs eyes as they spoke. They also whispered in one anotherâs ears. Social media said the behavior was giving âmore than friends.â

After the clip surfaced, rumors quickly began to circulate that Taylor, who is currently divorcing Iman Shumpert, was dating the legendary bachelor. Sources close to the mom of two said it was just an innocent conversation, but social media isnât buying it.
Now, the âLowkeyâ singer has confirmed âThe Rundownâ that she was simply helping the Oscar winner with his mane.
Teyana told the outlet, âLeo wore extensions for the movie and they were hurting him. I was literally helping him with his bun.â
Additionally, Taylor said the conversation was harmless as they discussed dinner.
âAnd if youâve seen the video, I said something about cornbread because my chef was cooking for the whole cast,â the actress said. âWe gotta make sure his bun is right. We gotta make sure heâs eating good.â
The âA Thousand and Oneâ star revealed he is like a brother to her. She also complimented DiCaprioâs character and revealed that he championed her acting.
âHe is like the best. He will cheerlead for you all the way through,â she shared.
Before the two were secretly filmed at the party, a clip emerged of Teyanna and Leonardo from the set of an untitled Paul Thomas Anderson film. It is currently called the âB.C. Project.â
In the video, Leonardo smacks Teyanaâs butt during a robbery scene. It was apart of the script, but fans seem to think reality is imitating art.
