Whatever your opinion, Johnny Depp’s damaged career DOES seem to be warming up. He performed at the Orpheum Theater in LA with Jeff Beck and after the show he was mobbed by adoring fans wanting autographs. (see right side of photo) He must have been secretly thrilled that he needed TWO hands-on bodyguards to protect him and guide him to his car. Jeff Beck managed to exit on his own…

Sylvester Stallone has long been somewhat obsessed with his height. His true height is somewhere between 5’8” and the 5’11” that he claims. We remember years back when he was making a movie at a film studio, and he sent someone out to look for male extras for a scene with him. It didn’t matter what they looked like – they just had to be shorter than him! Like that OTHER action star, Tom Cruise, Sly buys elevator shoes from expensive Italian shoemakers, although he IS credited with being the first actor to wear built up sneakers. So we were surprised to see this photo of Sly shopping in Rome with a couple of friends and several bodyguards who are ALL bigger than he is, in spite of his heeled cowboy boots… It also makes you wonder why Sly NEEDS bodyguards…

Shawn Mendes said that all he wanted for his 21st birthday was to take a walk in New York with his girlfriend Camila Cabello. The couple had lunch at DUMBO House members club in Brooklyn, and afterward they DID take a walk, but they weren’t alone. Apparently Shawn has a hard time going anywhere unmolested by fans, so two bodyguards (on the left in a white shirt and on the right in a black shirt) tried to be inconspicuous while paparazzi and fans surrounded the happy pair.

Dakota Johnson had her feelings hurt when she was announced as the female lead in “Fifty Shades of Grey” and rabid fans of the book cruelly denounced her. (It really wasn’t fair.) Leading man Charlie Hunnam caused a similar uproar and he ended up with increased security. When Charlie showed up at FX’s Sons of Anarchy premier in Hollywood he was the only cast member surrounded by bodyguards. According to The Hollywood Reporter, they weren’t hired by FX, the guards were sent by Universal, the studio doing “Fifty Shades of Grey.” He’s valuable now.

We had to laugh when we saw this top photo of Angelina and two kids plus four nannies arriving for a family vacation in the Galapagos Islands. Someone posted this on Twitter. The Jolie-Pitts had four nannies and two bodyguards along for the trip, but they have the sense to jump out of the frame when photographers are visible -as in the shot below. It always looks like Brad and Angelina are struggling to hold on to all the ones without help. They’re staying in an exclusive oceanfront house at the five star Royal Palm Hotel Galapagos (last photo) with a separate little garden house for the help.

Soon to be ex-Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger was having lunch with some buddies at Barneys and one guy teased him about having a bodyguard standing at a discreet distance. Arnold laughed and admitted he was thrilled because once he has finished being governor he can finally get rid of the bodyguard. He said he doesn’t need the guy and anyway “I’m tougher than he is!”
