Pope Francis was gifted with a model of a solar-powered drone by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg Monday, but that’s not the first time a celebrity has come to the Vatican with an offering for the Holy Father in hand. When Leonardo DiCaprio met with the Pontiff earlier this year, he presented him with a book of works by the artist Hieronymus Bosch.

In fact, since Pope Francis was elected in 2013, he has met with several of the world’s most famous people.

See all the photos of Pope Francis’ visits with the stars above.
