About
These Two Are The Same Ages As Leonardo DiCaprio And His New Girlfriend refers to a copypasta that developed as a parody of a tweet criticizing 48-year-old actor Leonardo DiCaprio for purportedly dating 19-year-old Israeli model Eden Polani. The original tweet attempted to illustrate the poster's disapproval of the relationship by noting the pair is the same age as Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, who portray Joel and Ellie in The Last Of Us TV series. In response, Twitter users used the catchphrase of the tweet with humorous pictures of two figures with large age gaps in various image caption memes.
Origin
Leonardo DiCaprio and Eden Polani were photographed attending a concert together in early February 2023, though it is unclear if the pair are a romantic couple.[1] Still, many believed they were together and voiced their disapproval shortly after. On February 7th, 2023, Twitter user @Cooperstreaming[2] posted a picture of Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, writing, "Just for some context, these two are the same ages as Leonardo DiCaprio & his new girlfriend." The tweet gained over 33,000 retweets and 425,000 likes in one day (shown below).
Spread
The swift and wide spread of the tweet quickly inspired parodies in early February 2023. For example, on February 7th, 2023, Twitter user @taffyakner[3] used the tweet with a picture of Andrea Zuckerman from Beverly Hills, 90210, gaining over 500 likes in one day (shown below, left). Also that day, user @conditorcancri[4] posted the joke using a scientist looking over an Ancient Egyptian sarcophagus (shown below, right). The developing meme was covered by the Daily Dot that same day.[1]
