Wife-Beater

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

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.

AMBER HEARD CAME TO COURT SUSPICIOUSLY WELL-PREPARED

For many days now, Amber Heard has been sitting in court documenting every instance that she says her ex Johnny Depp was violent with her – 14 attacks in all, during their three year marriage. She has photos of every bruise, every hank of hair he pulled out, and the thrashed condition of their house after each battle. Her makeup artist testified that Amber told her Johnny tried to smother her with a pillow. On some occasions she appeared on TV the day after an alleged fight, looking ravishing. We can’t help but wonder how Amber had the foresight to photograph every bruise and situation. Who DOES that? Certainly she had a PLAN from day one…

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…

ANTONIO SABATO AND HIS WIFE BEATER

Antonio Sabato just changed into his dancing shoes outside the DWTS rehearsal studio. He usually wears a “wife beater” on hot days when he’s dancing. Has this slang term for an undershirt become politically incorrect? Marlon Brando’s character Stanley Kowalski in Streetcar Named Desire made this shirt famous and he was brutal, so maybe that’s where the term started.
