Leonardo DiCaprio Set To Sue French Magazine Over Rihanna Pregnancy Rumor

You’d remember that rumors were everywhere months ago that the very gifted actor was dating Pop superstar, Rihanna.

Well, Leonardo DiCaprio is allegedly suing a French gossip magazine Oops! after it claimed he was having a baby with reported girlfriend Rihanna and did not wish to be in the child’s life.

Leo filed the suit against Oops! for its May 28 cover story … which declares that Leo knocked up RiRi, and will not recognize the baby as his. In the docs, Leo’s lawyer calls the story “pure fantasy.”

Here’s what’s odd — sources close to Leo tell TMZ … his team recently contacted Oops! and informed the people running the magazine that the story was false. We’re told the mag’s response went something like … yeah, we know and we don’t care — except in French.

One source tells us it’s almost like the magazine wanted to be sued, possibly just to gain publicity.

In the suit — first reported by Gossip Cop— Leo is demanding Oops! fork over 18,000 euros (about $20,000) in damages and attorney fees. That amount is the maximum allowed under French law.
