Johnny Depp is considering taking Amber Heard’s last name as his own

Johnny Depp

Johnny Depp visited Jimmy Kimmel yesterday, and you can tell he was itching to go full-on Scarfy again, but he restrained himself. One lonely, double-sided kerchief hung out of his pocket as he smoked his way into the studio. Remember, this is the new-old version of Depp. He’s receiving acclaim and accolades for his Black Mass transformation, so major league scarves are in the closet for now. Betcha they’ll be back as soon as this movie has been out for a few weeks. The film goes nationwide next Friday, so it won’t be long until Johnny can get back to his normal torn-hat getup. I haven’t made it to the movies since May, but this one is worth dropping everything to watch.

During the appearance, Kimmel mentions that Amber Heard did not take Johnny’s name, contrary to a report from a few months ago, which could have been one of those cases where Amber tests her friends by slipping them misinformation. Kimmel blows Depp’s mind here. He asks Johnny where the “Depp” name originated from, and Johnny doesn’t know. Then Kimmel tells a corny joke about why Amber didn’t take the Depp name, and Johnny says he might take Amber’s name. It could be an offhanded remark (like when he joked about eating his dogs to fix Terriergate), but who knows.

In this clip, Johnny talks about how he hates watching his own movies, but the Black Mass filmmakers insisted he sit through the Cannes premiere. He fell asleep about 15 times. Eh. I’d make fun of him, but I almost fell asleep during Avengers: Age of Ultron.

    That tooth!

  2. Ysohawt1 says:

    He should think of his tattoo Winnona forever, which he later changed to Wino forever!

  3. Vienna says:

    Eww, his teeth looks gross. Wouldn’t want to kiss that!

    • Nicolette says:

      Seriously, with all his money why doesn’t he get them fixed?

      • Crocuta says:

        I think he’s awesome because he doesn’t get them fixed. If his teeth are fine (he doesn’t have health issues with them), then he should keep them as they are.

        It shows character to keep something flawed even when society tells you that’s not pretty.

      • iheartjacksparrow says:

        @Crocuta – I guess you haven’t heard that not taking care of your teeth can lead to other health issues. And there’s a big difference in not cleaning your teeth and an actual “flaw” such as an unattractive nose.

      • FingerBinger says:

        Raggedy teeth aren’t awesome.

      • Anna says:

        @iheartjacksparrow Agreed.

      • Crocuta says:

        @iheartjacksparrow – There’s also a difference between not perfect teeth and dirty & unhealthy teeth. His color and shape do not necessarily mean lack of cleaning or lack of health. Sure that can be the case, but it could also not be. In many cases it’s just vanity with teeth, like with the nose.

        My teeth are very nice to look at, yet I have to go to the dentist regularly to get them fixed. On the other hand by best friend’s are yellow thanks to her smoking & coffee and she never had a retainer so some are all over the place, and yet – she’s healthy. No dentist except regular preventive check-ups. You don’t really know what the case is with Johnny.

    Johnny Heard what?

  5. Hannah says:

    His teeth! Ugh!!!!

  6. lisa2 says:

    It took me a minute to figure out what is going on with his teeth. He actually has some kind of stones embedded in his teeth.. a red one and white (blue).. and some silver caps on the bottom. His teeth look near rotten or terribly stained. ALL THAT MONEY and he doesn’t get these fixed.

    • Chinoiserie says:

      If his teeth are healthy why should he get them fixed just to make them pretty. Seriously. I do not know why some people care about teeth.

      • Neah23 says:

        We’ll he has three gold caps one side at lest two gold teeth on the other side and two or more gold/silver caps at the bottom he might have more that all points to the fact that his teeth are very unhealthy.

        Not to mention the ones that aren’t fixed with hardware look unhealthy or are really really stained from his smoking.

    • iheartjacksparrow says:

      The silver caps on the bottom are his POTC teeth which will probably get removed now that the last movie is (presumably) finished shooting.

    • mmm says:

      The teeth are from Pirates of the Caribbean 5. In the movie Jack Sparrow have some sort of ruby in some teeth and the normal golden teeth in the bottom.
      He hasn’t removed it because he should reshoot scenes. He didn’t say when the reshoots will take place but that he’s so painful to remove the teeth that he wouldn’t do it until he’s all done with Pirates

  7. Franca says:

    I can understand why he doesn’t like watching his own movies. It must be really strange to se your own face on a big screen.

    • Esmom says:

      Agreed. I can’t even watch myself in a home video. But I’m guessing he also talking about not being able to resist critiquing his work when he sees it onscreen. I’m a writer and I hate seeing stuff in print when it’s final, because I know I’ll find a way I could have made it better.

  8. meme says:

    jeesh, he’s gross.

  9. Skins says:

    Looking kind of fat

  10. Corrie says:

    Ugh… i’ll say its nicer to hear him than to look at him. He’s such a nightmare to look at. He’s handling midlife crisis horribly. But I can still watch him as JD the actor.

  11. Moxie Remon says:

    What are thooose?

  12. Heat says:

    Everything about Johnny (Depp) Heard makes teen-aged-me-watching-21 Jump Street super sad.

  13. Daria Morgendorffer says:

    I’m not going to fault the man for aging because we all do and will inevitably. It’s just as cruel to knock a man for not being as hot as he used to be as it is to knock a woman for the same. We’re all perpetuating that gross Hollywood standard of treating people like they’re worthless once they age like all humans do. He looks much healthier in these pictures than he did in the pictures from Italy, which is cool because I thought he might have some major health issues judging by his pale skin, bloating, and profuse sweating.

    I’ll say this much though–Johnny wants to be in line with men like Hunter S. Thompson and Keith Richards and goes to great lengths to emulate them and their behavior. He makes a huge effort to be quirky and weird and I think his comments about taking Amber’s last name were just part of his effort to make people say, “wow he’s so different.” I find it kind of tedious and wish he would cut the sh-t. I still think there is some sort of midlife crisis at play behind his relationship with Amber.

    • chaine says:

      I so agree. It’s like he never matured past a certain late teen-early 20’s stage when some young men try to be extra-edgy and only succeed in looking pathetic… which i can forgive in a young man, because that’s part of growing up… but not at Johnny’s age.

    • Anna says:

      He did just come off of shooting that ganster movie Whitey Bulgar or something like that. I’m curious about this as the look you describe sounds very much like pictures I’ve seen of Johnny in that character. Maybe–as with the rubies and caps with teeth post-POTC–he was still somewhat in character Italy? It takes time to shed or gain the pounds after a role and to get back to “normal” self after extreme body changes, especially the older you are…

  14. bokchoi says:

    its like the neville longbottom effect in reverse….johnny has definitely de-prettied as he ages.

  15. Elisa the I. says:

    Depp means idiot in German. 😛

  16. Chinoiserie says:

    He looks a lot better than he did in the premiere.

  17. Kate says:

    Re: his teeth, yeah they’re stained and raggedy, but veneers don’t fix damage, it’s just like building a new wall in front of the old wall with the bad plaster. He obviously doesn’t care how it looks, so veneers would serve no purpose for him. He could get implants, but really you’d be crazy to have your teeth pulled and replaced with implants while they’re still serving their purpose and not causing you un-fixable pain/illness.

    He’s a 50-something smoker and drinker. Lovely new gleaming white teeth would just look stupid on him anyway.

    • mmm says:

      Are his Jack Sparrow’s teeth!!
      He hasn’t removed it because they will reshoot scenes (he said this in interviews in Venice)

  18. mmm says:

    Not sure about Amber’s last name. Not only because Jimmy Kimmel did all the talk and Johnny seemed puzzled with the comment, but also because in Johnny’s new album, “The Hollywood Vampires” he thanks to Amber DEPP!

  19. Frosty says:

    Dude, stop trying so hard to be special. Relax.

  20. funcakes says:

    He’s starting to resemble gerard depardieu in every way.

  21. jferber says:

    Why shouldn’t he receive a fraction of the snarkiness and negativity women get on the regular?
