Johnny Depp Photoshoot


While looking for pictures of Johnny Depp, I found this hot recent photoshoot by Matt Sayles:

Actor Johnny Depp poses in Beverly Hills, Calif., on Thursday, June 22, 2006. With the second "Pirates of the Caribbean" picture in theaters July 7 and filming nearly finished on the third, Depp is preparing to say goodbye to his iconic pirate persona, Captain Jack Sparrow.

Depp won't say which of his characters he identifies with most. Although people have praised his role as Cap'n Jack Sparrow, he says all of his characters are close to his heart. He also says he doesn't take work just for the money:

"John Waters said he thinks Captain Jack is actually, of all the characters you've played, the character closest to you," Cagle asks, laughing. "Is there, first of all, why would he say something like that, is there any truth to it?"

"I'll never reveal the truth … I cannot and will not say. No, I think with all the characters, you know, they're still in there, you know. Ed Wood pops up every now and again," says Depp. "Captain Jack, certainly. Closest to me? You know, maybe. It's hard for me to say."

"After you left television and you were trying to do movies that you were passionate about, was it ever really hard to say 'no' to more money or 'no' to bigger movies and really follow your heart?" Cagle asks.

"Oh, yeah. definitely," Depp admits. "There were moments when, you know, sort of, whopper buckets of money were offered, where, you know, even in sort of your purest state you are tempted, you know? There is that temptation. But that's important to go through. I always figured that if there was gonna be money, you know, if I was able to stick it out, it would come later, you know? So I was patient. I couldn't do the work for the money. It couldn't be about that."

Depp is certainly popular enough to be picky about his roles, and his choices have served him well as an A-list actor. Although Depp won't admit which of his characters is his favorite, he did make the tattoo of a sparrow he sported as Captain Jack Sparrow permanent and added the caption "Jack." He says it is in honor of his youngest son, Jack Christopher Depp III, born on April 9, 2002.

Johnny Depp's French paradise


Fan favorite Johnny Depp leads a quiet, low-key life in the south of France with his girlfriend of eight years, French singer and actress Vanessa Paradis, and their two children. Star Magazine reports that the gorgeous star of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is a devoted dad who walks his kids, Lilly Rose, 7 and Jack, 4, to school and back again every day:

The former Hollywood bay-boy walks his kids to school before spending a few hours working via e-mail. When he's done, he picks his little ones up and spends the afternoon just hanging out with his family. It's a quiet, low-key life - and, sources tell Star, that's just the way Johnny... likes things these days. In fact, despite having no plans to marry Vanessa, sources say the Kentucky-born actor and his girlfriend... are incredibly happy...

A source close to Johnny says the pair are so madly in love, they worry that marriage might jinx their happy life. "Vanessa tells Johnny she doesn't need to be married," says the source. "But Johnny has always told Vanessa that the minute she feels like she needs to married, then he'd do it," says the insider.

(From Star Magazine print edition, Jluy 17, 2006.)

The article goes on to say that Johnny got paid $35 million plus a percentage of the box office for the two "Pirates" sequels, while Vanessa, his girlfriend of 8 years, has focused on her role as a mother and has only been in two films since she met Johnny in 1998.

In an interview in Britain's The Independent, Depp credits his family with turning his life around, and says he had a "rebirth" after his first child arrived:

He talks about a "rebirth", which he says stems from his relationship with the French musician and singer Vanessa Paradis, and their two children, Lily Rose, seven, and Jack, four.

"It took meeting the right girl," he says. "When Vanessa found out she was pregnant with our first child - you start thinking about the future and everything. Then, boom, there's your baby." He swirls his arms around then taps his fist on the table. "The same moment that your child is born, you're born again, you're brand-new. Vanessa and the kids have revealed me to me," says Depp thoughtfully, stroking his goatee, tipping his battered grey fedora over one eye, then taking a swig of coffee from a flask. "It's been liberating having a family, miraculous," says the actor, who is 43. "Everything changed once I held my daughter in my arms. Until that moment, I had been possessed with me; suddenly, there was someone who depended on me. It was like some veil had been lifted, or a layer of fog had been removed and I suddenly had clarity."

Interestingly enough, Depp said in 1993 "Ideally, I'd have land somewhere, maybe in France, with a wife and kids."

It looks like his dreams have come true. Johnny says he would like more children with his French girlfriend and says he doesn't need to get married to prove his devotion to her.

He sounds like a wonderful father and partner and a changed man. He's also a talented actor who deserves his massive success.

Depp was presented with the "Freedom of Paris" award last Thursday before the French premiere of "Pirates 2." He was honored for "devotion to Paris," even though he lives in the French countryside.

Here is Depp receiving the "Freedom of Paris" award with Vanessa by his side. [via] Depp is still wearing the gold caps from his Captain Jack role, and will continue filming the next "Pirates" sequel next month.

Pirates of the Caribbean wax figures


The Pirates of the Caribbean exhibit was unveiled at Madame Tussauds in London today. The wax artists are quite skilled at male characters as Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp's waxworks look eerily close to the real thing. Keira Knightley's wax figure looks like a female impersonator, though. Maybe that's why they tried to hide her underneath some falling hair.

People are speculating that Keira Knightley's live-in relationship with fellow actor Rupert Friend won't last long. He complained about his girlfriend having to kiss her hot costars in "Pirates" and said that she's hardly ever home. Keira admitted to working too hard, and says that she needs to take time off, but not because of Rupert:

Keira, whose previous relationship with Calvin Klein model Jamie Dornan ended because he couldn't handle her fame, confessed: "I know I've been like a workaholic and I really don't have time for much. I want to spend more time with my friends and family."

She added that she "definitely" had no plans to get married just yet. And when asked if she was going to take more time off to spend with Rupert, she replied: "I'm going to take time off because of myself mainly, not because of him. Let's see how things go there. I'm working on two new movies, that's what I'm concerned about now."

Not that Pride And Prejudice actor Rupert would call what she does "work". When we asked about Keira's performance in Pirates, he grunted: "It must have been a hard job kissing Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom. I'm sure she hated every minute of it!" Then he moaned to us: "She hardly ever comes home to me."

It doesn't sound like Keira and Rupert are doing too well if they speak so poorly of each other to the press.

Here are the wax figures of Keira, Johnny and Orlando.

"Pirates of the Caribbean 2" Premiere with Keira Knightley and Johnny Depp


Pirates of the Caribbean 2 premiered at Disneyland in Anaheim, California on June 24th. The film draws inspiration from the ride of the same name at the Disney theme parks. Pissed off fans and press waited nearly 6 hours at Disneyland for a chance to see the stars, who were gone all too quickly:

There was a pre-party with grog and grub at the Blue Bayou and Café Orleans for the premiere guests. They could also ride the new Pirates ride that features characters from the film: Jack Sparrow, his nemesis Captain Barbossa, and the squid-faced Davy Jones and then fill three huge red, yellow and green bleachers to view the film scheduled to be shown on an outdoor screen at around 9 p.m.

But by 7:30, the fans out on the carpet were getting hungry and hoarse, children began whimpering and even the seasoned press was turning surly.

“We’ve been standing here 5 hours and we’ve not seen a single lead actor from the film,” groused a KTLA reporter. “This is insane. Why would they make us stand out here this long?” Even a befuddled German reporter asked, “Is this normal?..."

At 8:15 p.m., frenzied screaming came from the carpet entrance. Down the line, cameramen on step ladders reported seeing Depp, Knightley and Bloom’s heads. The actors are posing for photos, zig-zagging down the carpet, talking to TV crews, then running over to shake hands and sign autographs for fans. That’s why it’s taking so long.

But it's getting late, almost 9 p.m., and the very real fear is that the film's stars will be yanked away by publicists and taken into the party so the film can begin...

Desperate reporters, sensing doom, start to break ranks. Mutinuous USA Today, People and Us Weekly scribes climb over the metal bars and run down the carpet to try to talk to Depp, who is surrounded by Disney pubs, his personal pub, Robin Baum, and roughly two dozen black-suited security guards, wearing headsets.

”If you have movie tickets, go in and take your seats,” warns a stern guard. We’re taking him in. The movie has to start!”

The carpet has become a mob scene. Guards are getting nervous. Reporters are pleading with publicists. Cameras keep flashing. Fans are screaming, "Joooohnnnyyy!" Suddenly the situation implodes as the guards surround Depp and rush their celebrity charge down the carpet.

Reporters and cameramen have to run ahead of the Depp Delta Force, as if trying to outrun a molten lava flow. “Keep moving! Keep moving! Keep moving!,” the guards shout.

Just a few frenzied minutes later and it’s all over. Depp is gone. After waiting for six hours, disgruntled reporters pack up and leave. And countless disappointed fans only got a split-second glimpse of Depp’s fedora.

That's annoying that people were made to wait so long. Disneyland didn't plan it correctly and should not have told people to show up so early.

"Pirates of the Caribbean 2" opens on July 7th.

Here are pictures from the premiere of Keira Knightley, Johnny Depp, and Orlando Bloom. I really like Keira's dress and think it's a good choice for the premiere of this semi-spooky film. Also shown are Christina Applegate, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Stacy Keibler, Daisy Fuentes and the Governator, Arnold Schwarzenegger. [via]

Exes Johnny Depp and Kate Moss to star on screen together


Johnny Depp and Kate Moss, who split up in 1997 after dating on and off for three years, may play ill-fated lovers Michael Hutchence and Paula Yates in a film about the INXS frontman's life.

Depp, who will play the late INXS frontman, split up with the supermodel in 1997 after a stormy three-year romance.

But he is happy for Moss to get close again, and play Hutchence's girlfriend Paula Yates in the rock movie.

An insider said: "Johnny was asked if it would be a deal breaker for him if Kate was cast."

"He said 'Not as far as I'm concerned.' He figures there's been enough water under that bridge.

"Obviously director Nick Egan hoping there's still enough chemistry between them that will translate to the screen.

"It has been claimed she never got over him and in the film they'll have to appear deeply in love."

Both Yates and Hutchence are now dead. Hutchence was found dead in November, 1997, in a hotel room in Sydney. He was naked and died of self-suffucation from a leather belt. Yates insisted that Hutchence's death was an accident, and that he was practicing dangerous auto-erotic asphyxiation, or trying to increase sexual pleasure through lack of oxygen. Yates died in 2000 from a heroin overdose. She was said to be distraught over losing custody of her three ridiculously-named daughters to her ex husband, Bob Geldolf. Yates and Hutchence are survived by a ten year-old daughter, Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily. (Yes, that is her name.)

While Moss has her share of drug abuse and tragedy, which may help her relate to her character, it is unclear whether she can act. She has only bit parts to her credit. If she can act it will be an impressive role to add to her resume.

With Johnny Depp in the lead, people are sure to be interested in the film, and it could be an incredible story of the late Hutchence.

Here is Kate Moss leaving her home on 5/25. [via]. Her left cheek looks swollen and there was a report that Pete Doherty hit her, but her publicist insists it's just a badly angled photograph.

Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis in Geneva


It looks like our country is the hip place to be because Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis are also in Geneva. Depp and Paradis were at the "Mont Blanc" watch company's 100th Anniversary Party at Palexpo last night.

Depp and Paradis, a French singer and actress, have been together since the summer of 1998. They have a daughter, Lily Rose Melody, who will turn 7 this May, and a son, Jack, who is 4. The family splits their time between France and the states.

Update: Depp appeared in public service ads for Mont Blanc last year to advance arts in education.

His uppity co-star Keira Knightly says that Depp and Orlando Bloom have been teasing her since her Oscar nomination:

Knightley told Britain's Heat magazine: "They've been taking the p*** out of me.

"Every time I do a take, they say, 'Oh, is that an Oscar-nominated take?'"

Supposedly Keira has been a diva on set, bringing along a big entourage and insisting that crew not make eye contact with her. She deserves to be teased.
