JOHNNY DEPP IS NOW OFFICIALLY A WIFE BEATER

Johnny Depp was WARNED not to pursue his lawsuit against The Sun newspaper for calling him a “wife beater” because it could only damage his already questionable reputation. But he INSISTED. His ex-wife Amber Heard came to court and documented no less than fourteen incidents of violence against her. She also provided many unsavory details about Depp’s alcohol and drug abuse and revolting behavior. In addition, Amber pointed out that she had taken flak for speaking out against Johnny and it had a negative affect on her career. Johnny lost his suit and we were gratified that the judge defended free speech and the media’s right to publish. Amber was praised for courageously reporting the domestic violence. This does NOT bode well for Johnny’s upcoming lawsuit against Amber for implying he was an abuser in an article she wrote for the Washington Post. Will he do this all over again?

EVERYBODY STANDS TO LOSE IN JOHNNY DEPP’S LAWSUIT AGAINST THE SUN

Today was the last day in the Johnny Depp vs The Sun newspaper lawsuit in London, and everyone involved has a lot to lose. If The Sun wins and does not have to retract calling Johnny a wife-beater, his reputation has still been considerably worsened by details revealed during the trial. If he loses, his ex Amber Heard will seem like a brave crusader to the #MeToo crowd. If Amber’s claims are NOT believed and The Sun loses, the paper could be in great financial jeopardy due to the newspaper crisis made worse by coronavirus. And Amber might be ostracized by #MeToo for trumping up false charges. There is no date yet set for the provocative verdict to be read.

JOHNNY DEPP AND AMBER HEARD AIM TO DESTROY EACH OTHER

Amber Heard looks thrashed as she arrives back at her hotel after yet another grueling day in court in London. (her ex, Johnny Depp, is suing The Sun for calling him a wife-beater.) Every day she and Johnny reveal more embarrassing stories about each other such as “who pooped in the bed?” or “two black eyes or not?” Various employees and witnesses are called and forced to testify about what THEY saw or heard to back up or demolish the claims. They all look terrified that they will lose their jobs or destroy a friendship. It’s noteworthy that Amber diligently photographed and recorded so much of Johnny’s drug-addled or drunken behavior. She was READY for this occasion, (Makes you WONDER about her motives.) Whether he wins or not, Johnny and Amber will walk out of court with damaged reputations – is it worth it?

IS AMBER HEARD A HUSBAND-BEATER?

Of all the unpleasant things that have been said about Johnny Depp, it seems the only insult he resents is being called a “wife beater.” His ex-wife Amber Heard called him that and The Sun wrote about it so he’s suing the paper for defamation. (Depp claims Heard is a sociopath who actually hit HIM) The sensational libel trial started today in London, and Johnny and Amber arrived by separate entrances, armed with accusations. Johnny started off by admitting he had “taken every drug under the sun by age 14”, but never hit a woman. We remember when Johnny was seeing Kate Moss back in the 90’s, he drunkenly trashed their NY hotel room. Will she be called to testify? He does have an anger problem and has been abusive to co-workers on movie sets. Ellen Barkin said she saw Johnny hurl a bottle of wine across a hotel room, and he called her a liar. This trial should prove to be VERY revealing…
