In detail, billions of dollars of funds purportedly diverted and spent on land, luxury goods, houses, yachts and works of art link artists like Leonardo DiCaprio, Paris Hilton or Miranda Kerr. The whole scandal was born in a Malaysian state investment fund (1MDB) created in 2009 by former Prime Minister Razak.

According to the US prosecutor's office, according to the Spanish portal ABC, ill-gotten money from the investment fund has been used by Malaysian businessman Jho Low to finance the films The wolf of Wall Street, with DiCaprio in the lead, Fools and still fools 2 and Dad's warwith Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrel.

Corrupt officials have used some of the illicit proceeds of their frauds to finance the productions of these films. In particular The wolf of Wall Street (via a production studio called Red Granite Pictures, which belonged to Riza Aziz, Najib's son-in-law), a film starring DiCaprio, who is now helping the prosecutor's office to clarify the issue.

In addition, the facts also relate to Paris Hilton, who started attending Low in 2009, the year of the creation of 1MDB as a public fund. In November of this year, according to the research book Billion Dollar Whale, the famous American businesswoman and actress was taken away by Low in a rented private plane.

Low had been fantasizing about Hilton since entering university in Wharton, and had contacted her director earlier that year for her to attend their celebrations. It is estimated that she has benefited from about $ 100,000 from this fund in the form of gifts, trips and parties.

According to the whistleblowing book, Orlando Bloom's recently divorced actor, Miranda Kerr, was also Low's "girlfriend". A gala gown was handed to the Australian at a dinner hosted in Manhattan's Koreatown by Malaysia in early 2014, and according to some sources, he explained how he could promote his new range of skin care, KORA Organics. Kerr, one of the highest paid models in the world, was trying to become a businesswoman. And soon the two would fall in love, although they kept their relationship secret.

Like Hilton, the Australian model profited from whitened money by receiving gifts – such as a diamond necklace with her initials engraved, worth $ 1.3 million – that the corrupt businessman gave him the day of Valentine's Day.

The public fund 1MDB was established in 2009 by former Prime Minister Najib Razak and chaired until 2016 in order to attract foreign investment and create a financial district in Kuala Lumpur. In addition to the Malaysian capital, half a dozen countries – including the United States, Switzerland and Singapore – continue to investigate embezzlement from Malaysia.
