AceShowbiz - The global success of "Titanic" and his hot sex scene with Kate Winslet in the movie earned Leonardo DiCaprio the status as a sex symbol since late 1990s. But he never wanted it. Years later, when he saw Zac Efron grew to become a heartthrob, the Oscar-winning actor was more than willing to pass the torch to the younger star.
"I look at young Zac Efron and think 'Go get it pal, leave me in peace,' " the "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" star told Fox News in 2008. "I was never happy with the teen idol tag at all - never wanted to be a sex symbol or all that stuff - it was the work that appealed to me. Really nothing else."
