'View' co-hosts defend S.E. Cupp over Hustler photo
NEW YORK, July 24 (UPI) -- Actor Leonardo DiCaprio recently helped two wheelchair-bound Madonna fans get a better view at a New York concert.
One of the fans, Francesco Clark, 28, worked at Harper's Bazaar until a car accident left him a quadriplegic. He had front-row seats to the show thanks to Harper's Bazaar creative director Stephen Gan, The New York Post reported Monday.
But, when the show started and Madonna came onstage, the crowd rushed forward and Clark's wheelchair was nearly knocked over.
"He couldn't see anything because people were all standing around him," writer Elisa Lipsky-Karasz said. "He tried to move to the front, but no one would budge, and nobody cared. Then the security guard came over and was being rude and told him to move."
That is when DiCaprio came over and said, "Why don't you come sit with me and I'll just move over?" DiCaprio was sitting at the end of the catwalk in front of a no-standing zone.
Just a few minutes after Clark joined the star, DiCaprio moved another wheelchair-bound woman in next to Clark, saving her view as well.
