JOHNNY DEPP: AWARDS YES – JOBS NO!
Despite being accurately described as a “wife beater,” Johnny Depp,58, got an honorary Outstanding Contribution award at the San Sebastian Film Festival this week. Before the ceremony Johnny, who’s been griping that Hollywood blackballed him, ominously declared “Nobody is safe from cancel culture!” Naturally, women’s domestic abuse charities complained loudly that the film honor is disrespectful of abuse survivors. Film Festival members insisted that Johnny was NOT ARRESTED OR CONVICTED of violence against women and pointed out that the award reflects Depp’s cinematic achievements- not his personal life. Ironically, later this month Johnny is scheduled to receive another honorary award in the Czech Republic.
