Have you ever thought about what it would be like to make out with Leonardo DiCaprio?

Come on, I know the thought has crossed your mind once or twice.

I mean, how could it not? For me, it's impossible to watch Leo in any of his movies and not think about smooching those lips.

Yeah, that could be me.

THAT COULD BE ME TOO, GODDAMMIT.

Sometimes, Leo looks so sexy on screen it hurts. He's just SO damn pleasing to the eyes, it's painful. You don't even know what I would give for one single two-second kiss.

Well, if you recall, Ms. Maggie Smith actually lived my dream, on camera, in front of everyone.

It was Valentine's Day during the British Academy Film Awards, and a kiss camera went around the crowd. The two puckered up when the camera came to them, and it was honestly adorable.

Re-watch the magic moment below.

In a recent interview, Maggie Smith was asked about actors she admires. When Leo DiCaprio was brought up, NPR asked Maggie about the kiss. She told them,

He did indeed. That was a thrill for me. A real thrill.

She added,

Because I think he is a terrific actor. And I've been rooting and voting for him since 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape.' I thought he was so amazing in that when he was so young.

It looks like Maggie's been a real fan of Leo for years now. WE FEEL YOU, MAGGIE. We love him, too.

Check out the Academy Awards this Sunday, February 28 to see if Leo takes home his first Oscar. No matter what, Leo, we've got your back.

PS. Call me if you need someone to make out with backstage. I'm here for you.
