'09

Johnny Depp’s hair is amazing. I wish I had his hair, and that’s coming from someone who loves her hair. Johnny’s seems thick, with natural body. I love when he grows it out – he looks like the image every little girl has of the romantic poet she’s going to fall in love with some day. But I also like Johnny with short hair, like he has for The Rum Diary, the film he’s doing right now.
One of the biggest problems on the set seems to be Johnny’s hair. The stylist is about to have a nervous breakdown trying to tame Johnny’s thick hair in the humidity of Puerto Rico. From what I can imagine, Johnny and I have the kind of similar, thick hair that turns into an afro in humidity. Seriously, when the humidity makes it feel like a soup, my hair resembles Yoko Ono’s.
But Johnny has dealt with these “hairy” issues before. Johnny’s solution is pure 1980s – Dep gel and Aqua Net. Oh, Aqua Net. My ancient enemy. Star Magazine has more:
Things got hairy on the set of Johnny Depp’s latest film when the stylist tried to tame his wild mane.
His part in The Rum Diary calls for a slick 1950s coif, “But nothing could control his hair!” says a source. “The poor stylist almost had to bring in a toupee!”
So Johnny revealed the secret mix that has kept his locks in check for years: Dep gel (no pun intended) with a coating of Aqua Net hairspray!
“He said he used it to style his hair in Cry-Baby too.”
Cheap trick!
[From Star Magazine]
My hair is like my own barometer. I can tell when it’s going to rain just by studying how big it gets within an hour. But I’ve never been one to grab the Aqua Net, that stuff turns hair into a thick helmet that takes a ton of shampoo to wash out. I think I have post-traumatic stress due to my mother’s over-use of Aqua Net when I was little. I must have inhaled gallons of the stuff when I was a little girl. It’s so funny that Depp’s hair solutions are not only so 1980s, but they’re so cheap. No designer de-frizzers for Johnny, God bless him.
Here’s Johnny and co-star Michael Rispoli filming scenes for “The Rum Diary” around San Juan, Puerto Rico on April 16th. Images thanks to Fame Pictures .

I really don’t get all this hype about Johnny Depp, he is not even that good looking, he seems like a nice enough guy but I know that if he wasn’t famous and saw him walking down the street then I wouldn’t even look at him twice. I suppose that does not really mater as long as you have start in a movie that people are obsessed about. Maybe I am biased because he looks exactly like a guy I dated in the past and I was not that into him either.

Enonymous if I saw a guy that looked like Johnny Depp walking down the street I’d be a little swoony.

While I have always thought he was sexy with the short hair, the first time I ever saw him with the Captain Jack Sparrow look, I couldn’t take mu eyes off him. IMO, THAT was his hottest look ever.

Well,I fell in love with him more so for his acting ability,which has made him ever sexier than just the looks alone. All the way back to edward scissorshand,bennie and joon,what’s eating gilbert grape,chocolat….-the guy is just hot in so many ways!!! IMO,he’s a true ‘artiste’,not just an actor,and that is what makes him so sexy….he’s got soul! not just superficial good looks. Eponymous,if you’ve not seen the majority of his films,check them out….and then decide if you find him sexy or not….

I have always been a BIG FAN of Johnny Depp’s, however, the pics on this film make it look like he has had cheek injections. God I hope not, Love his natural look. Anyone else notice this!!??

Irm, I have seen quite a few of Johnny Depp’s movies (and all of his most famous roles) and I do like him as an actor and his movie choices, especially when he teams up with Tim Burton but as appearance wise goes (and this is my view based on when people making him out to be some kind of Mr. Universe, sexiest man alive blah blah blah nonsense), he really does not strike me as anything particularly special, I have seen him in interviews and seems like a shy, nice guy, which I understand is a turn on for most women but other then that, I still think he is overrated and over hyped like the rest of Hollywood. He is a dime a dozen.
Btw, It is Enonymous not Eponymous.

You know what- screw you Kaiser and Johnny. Talk to me when the slightest amount of sweat turns your hair into mini-dread locks. You can at least comb out an afro with a minor amount of pain. Don’t talk to me about frizz. I am a black woman living in Georgia.
Johnny has stylists, I can’t even find someone to give me a decent trim and roller set.

I don’t think he’s had cheek injections he’s probably gained weight.

Hoping they can add a bigger vocabulary as the hardware improves. Would like to have “redial” and ” podcast” become part of the vocabulary. Eventually, it should be able to deal with “open app” plus have a vocabulary associated with things like Pandora, TuneIn, iTunes, and other audio apps.Considering there are 2 32GB white iPhone 4s for sale on eBay right now. One has 19 bidders and it”s at $610 plus $20 shipping and the other is at $1125 with 15 bidders. And free shipping. Looks to me like it”s worth it. I”m all about resale for the next gen. $372 for my white 32GB 3G[S].8 Posts and 2 from yahoo”s who hate Stern enough to post about it but obviously care enough to read the thread anyway. Goes back to the line in his movie about the average duration a listener stays tuned in being even longer for the people who dislike him than for the people who like him.
