So yes, fans were _thrilled._ But obviously nobody was more delighted than Leo himself. In a clip posted by [_Variety_](http://variety.com/2016/film/news/leonardo-dicaprio-oscars-governors-ball-after-party-revenant-1201718062/ "undefined"), you can see the actor waiting to get his shiny new statue engraved after the ceremony. He tries to play it cool, but he can’t stop himself from grinning, drumming his fingers impatiently on the counter and cracking jokes at his own expense. “Do you do this every year?” he asks. “I wouldn’t know.” > [](https://twitter.com/Variety/status/704200867746975744) After he receives his newly personalized award, he clutches it to his bosom and gently whispers “I’ll never let go.” (Well, not _exactly_, but pretty much.) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4241112/leonardo-dicaprio-oscar-engraved/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4241112/leonardo-dicaprio-oscar-engraved/"},"headline":"Watch Leonardo DiCaprio Try to Remain Calm as His Oscar Gets Engraved","datePublished":"2016-02-29T16:01:05.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:30:33.741Z","description":"He is just so giddy","url":"https://time.com/4241112/leonardo-dicaprio-oscar-engraved/","keywords":["Newsfeed","movies","celebrities","awards","celebrity"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4241112/leonardo-dicaprio-oscar-engraved/","name":"Watch Leonardo DiCaprio Try to Remain Calm as His Oscar Gets Engraved"}}]}] ```
