Leonardo DiCaprioLeonardo DiCaprio is handing over money to support an orphan girl he met while filming new movie Blood Diamond in South Africa. DiCaprio, 32, was so touched by the youngster, who is being raised in an orphanage, he decided to pledge funds not just towards her upbringing, but to the orphanage itself.

He says, "She was a young girl on set. I just became attached to this kid. It was a great feeling to walk into this orphanage and see what happens when people contribute money and time to helping children who have lost everything."

DiCaprio currently has no plans to have children of his own, adding, "I'm not married right now."
