Leonardo Dicaprio is suing a French magazine after its editors allegedly printed a false story about the actor and pop star Rihanna.
The Wolf of Wall Street star filed the lawsuit against Oops! magazine over a cover story published last month which alleged that DiCaprio got the Barbadian singer pregnant.
The reported claimed he wanted nothing to do with her or the baby.
The actor's lawyer called the story "pure fantasy", and they are claiming damages of $US28,800 (NZ$40,873), which is the maximum allowed under French law.
