ALICE COOPER KNOWS ONE SIDE OF JOHNNY DEPP

Alice Cooper MEANS well, but he should think twice about defending his pal Johnny Depp against abuse allegations by Johnny’s ex Amber Heard. Johnny sued The Sun newspaper for calling him a “wife beater” and he lost the case – the UK judge ruled the claim was substantially true. Alice insists that Johnny is “one of the sweetest people I ever met in my life and I’m not buying those other stories.” What Alice forgets is that guys often treat their male buddies QUITE differently than they treat the women in their lives. The abuse allegations didn’t help Depp’s acting career, but he can always play guitar with Alice and The Hollywood Vampires

YIKES! WHAT HAPPENED TO JOHNNY DEPP?

Johnny Depp, 54, is thoroughly enjoying his European tour with his band The Hollywood Vampires (and making some money, too.) The financial angle might be important because he’s in a legal battle with ex-managers and claims he’s broke. Always kind to fans, Johnny posed for photos with some Russian girls and when his fans saw them online they were shocked and concerned that he looked rather debauched. Johnny DOES appear to be thin and pale and just plain worn out. Remember his ex-wife Amber Heard accused him of drug and alcohol abuse – is that taking a toll on his incredible looks? Or is he losing weight for a film role?

ALICE COOPER TURNED OUT TO BE A DECENT HUSBAND

We have to give Alice Cooper’s wife Sheryl credit – she has put up with a lot during their 40 year marriage. Alice was a raging alcoholic until 1983 – he only got sober then because Sheryl threatened to divorce him. We remember when Alice used to shop in the rock n’roll clothing store we had on Sunset Strip in the 70’s. He’d pull up in a limo with an entourage – always carrying a beer in his hand. Alice was really friendly and likeable. We felt sorry for his long-suffering girlfriend, but he bought her some nice things. Alice met his wife when she danced in his Welcome to my Nightmare tour and they have one of the happier rock marriages – in spite of the fact that he never stops touring. For the past three years he’s been with The Hollywood Vampires featuring Johnny Depp and Joe Perry.
