Johnny Depp already ‘skin and bones’ rumor
National Enquirer published an article with a headline that read “Johnn’s A Skin & Bones Strummer.” The outlet also mentioned, “shocking photos of swashbuckling train wreck Johnny Depp” that made it look like he was already on his last voyage.
The report included a snap of the Pirates of the Caribbean star looking haggard at a charity appearance. It alleged that Depp was using it to revamp his battered image after the disastrous legal battle with his ex-wife, Amber Heard. It also mentioned Depp boozing with his bandmates.
It quoted an anonymous insider claiming that he was drinking booze during an event from a coffee cup. The source added that Depp’s security had to keep him steady on his feet.
Rumor debunked
Gossip Cop examined the report and stressed that it’s true that Johnny Depp has a hard time in the past years. However, his legal battles against Amber Heard are far from over.
The rumor-debunking sites also questioned the report saying Enquirer was dishonest. First, Johnny Depp looks about the same as usual. His recent photos feature him looking healthy, so the tabloid’s claim was out of line.
Gossip Cop also noted that due to the lawsuits, Depp has been out of the spotlight. However, he has been doing fine.
Warner Bros. asked Depp to resign from Fantastic Beasts after he lost his libel case against The Sun. However, the rumor-debunking site noted that his career doesn’t look like it’s over.
What keeps Johnny busy
Johnny Depp’s Hollywood Vampires bandmate, Alice Cooper, spoke with The Daily Beast recently, where he opened up about Depp. According to him, the Tourist actor has been writing songs and is eager to get back on stage.
He also believed that his new songs would likely reflect what he has been going through in life. He is looking forward to reuniting with Depp and the rest of the members of the band, saying it will be great.
Depp is the band’s guitarist. According to Cooper, many were surprised when they learned that Depp plays guitar, but for him, it wasn’t a shock because “he was that good.”
