Rogers recounted meeting DiCaprio and having cocktails around his firepit while listening to Frank Sinatra in her new book Find Your Light.Rogers crossed paths with DiCaprio and Spider-Man star Tobey Maguire at an LA club while she was in America after competing in the 2017 Miss Universe International Final in Las Vegas.“I spun around, bent down to say hello and quickly realised that I was meeting Leonardo DiCaprio,” she wrote.“Suddenly two gorgeous arms reached up to receive my outstretched hand. It was all very … Titanic.“He was on a lower deck, looking unassuming but all-knowing. I was dressed to the nines, naive and secretly waiting to be swept off my feet.“As he introduced himself, still cradling my now sweaty hand, I could only think of one thing: ‘Don’t let go Jack’.“Sadly, he did.”DiCaprio introduced her to Maguire and she stayed with the posse until the venue shut and it was on to an afterparty.“We were indeed going to an after-party at Leo’s house which of course is in the hills, stunning, heavily-guarded and a no-go zone for mobile phones and social media,” she wrote.“He has created a private oasis overlooking LA’s shimmering city lights. As we sat around his fire pit listening to Frank Sinatra, I sipped a cocktail and kept thinking about how nothing like this is probably ever going to happen to me again.”While Rogers’ book Find Your Light contains anecdotes such as her encounter with DiCaprio it also tackles serious issues such as mental health, anxiety, disordered eating, social media trolls and finding the confidence to chase your dreams. Rogers has a powerful and authentic voice — one that young women listen to and respect.Her star is very much still rising and her voice will get louder — watch her fly.Find Your Light, published by Echo Publishing, is now available.
