Leonardo DiCaprio went viral at the Golden Globes for a moment of sassiness that was caught on camera, and now we finally know who the Titanic actor was talking to.

The famed actor was nominated for best actor in a musical or comedy for his role in One Battle After Another, but ultimately lost the award to TimothĂŠe Chalamet for Marty Supreme.

While he may not have come away with the accolade, one viral clip showed the 51-year-old was very much enjoying himself in Los Angeles.

In the clip, DiCaprio could be seen saying: “I was watching you with the K-pop thing." "Expressing his enthusiasm and flicking his hair, the Wolf of Wall Street actor added: "You were like, ‘Who’s that? Is it... Oh, K-pop!"

The clip had singlehandedly 'created a hundred memes in 30 seconds', according to one commenter, but one question that everyone had was exactly who was DiCaprio speaking to.

Deadline speculated he could have been talking to his One Battle co-star and on-screen daughter Chase Infiniti, who is known to be a K-pop fan.

And while it has now been confirmed DiCaprio was speaking to a One Battle alum, it was instead Teyana Taylor on the other side of viral video.

Taylor told Access Hollywood: "He’s talking to me, yes. I want to say we might have been talking about KPop Demon Hunters, because I was so happy when they won, because my kids love KPop Demon Hunters."

The Golden Globe winner added: "So I was over there just jamming and I think he caught me jamming and that’s when we started talking about it. I just don’t remember what he was saying. I don’t think I even really heard what he was saying. I probably was just laughing and kee-keeing back and had no clue what he was saying."

Recalling events from the ceremony, Taylor said: "I do remember jamming so hard when ‘Golden’ by KPop Demon Hunters came on. We went into this whole spiel about how Junie and Rue love KPop Demon Hunters but I didn’t know that that whole moment was being captured."

Darren Stanton, speaking on behalf of Covers, analysed DiCaprio's playful demeanour at the Golden Globes.

"The viral clip featuring Leo is quite telling. While we know he has a good sense of humour, he appears to be mimicking someone or trying to make others laugh by behaving in an exaggerated manner," he said.

"We often see Leo being quite serious and professional, so this definitely shows a different side of him.

"The clip proves that he’s relaxed, willing to joke around and not take himself too seriously, even though he’s aware the camera is recording."
