Remember the fat DiCaprio lookalike? He’s got a TV show and is recreating Titanic in a shopping mall

Earlier this year you might remember a photo of Roman Burtsev, a 33-year-old Russian security guard who gained internet fame for resembling an overweight, tired-looking DiCaprio.

Well now he has his own reality show – part of which includes him recreating the ‘prow scene’ from Titanic. Meduza reports that the Russian TV network Moskva-24 built a small replica of the ill-fated ship in the middle of a shopping mall and let women pose with Burtsev.

Here is a lovely shot of not-Jack posing with not-Rose.

Here he is singing the theme from Titanic, ‘My Heart Will Go On’.

And wearing the bear from The Revenant.

Clearly you want more video of a chubby Russian DiCaprio lookalike – this time doing some boxing and taking English lessons, so here it is.

Who knows what’s next – maybe Burtsev will win an Oscar next week and the real DiCaprio will end up going insane?
