Depp/Heard Trial Shows That Hollywood Is Absolutely NUTS

The only thing I’ve learned throughout the Amber Heard and Johnny Depp defamation trial is that Hollywood is chock full of idiots. 

Pirates of The Caribbean star, Depp is suing his ex-wife, Aquaman actress, Heard, for libel for $50 million over a December 2018 op-ed for The Washington Post. Heard is counter suing for $100 million and described herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse.” With nearly six weeks of back and forth, no real progress was made but the one thing that did grow is my understanding of how screwed up Hollywood is. 

Heard and Depp both dragged celebrities along to support their cases during the trial. We did a lot of research into Hollywood celebrities and weren’t surprised at how much loony we discovered. 

Keith Richards

Richards is one of Depp’s long time friends and he’s a Rolling Stones guitarist. Other than that, Richards was a drug addict, fell asleep driving with his kid in the back seat and snorted his fathers ashes.

Courtney Love

Love was selected to testify as one of Depp’s supporters. She’s a troubled rock star with a drug addiction. She once punched a colleague in the face, she’s verbally abused a flight attendant, she was arrested for throwing a microphone stand into the crowd at one of her performances, injuring an audience member and Love was sued for allegedly ordering the murder of her former son-in-law to regain her late husband’s guitar. Nutjob.

Kate Moss

Moss is a former lover of Depp’s and has reportedly had an aggressive partying lifestyle. Moss has been in and out of rehab, celebrated the christening of her daughter with two days of drinking and was a notorious cocaine snorter. Depp still chose Moss to assist him. LOL. 

Ellen Barkin

Barkin and Depp were romantically involved in the past. Depp, she claimed, abused her. She also had an animosity towards police officers. In 2012 she lashed out irrationally when a police officer kindly asked her to step up on a curb instead of standing on the road. Drama queen.  

Joe Perry

Perry is Aerosmith lead guitarist and a friend of Depp’s. He was rumored to have been addicted to drug abuse. Supposedly he would hire a roadie on his musical tours to “dispense cocaine through a straw whenever he wandered over.” Seems like a resourceful man! 

Billy Bob Thorton. Elon Musk. James Franco. Eddie Redmayne.

All of those celebrities got to have their sex lives and romantic relationships brought up in the Depp v. Heard trial. If I were dating someone as dramatic as Heard, I’d want to forget about it but thanks to the defamation trial, it doesn’t look like these guys will be getting away with hiding their dirty laundry. 

At first I felt bad that these celebrities got stuck in the crossfire during this trial but after looking at who they are and their past, I couldn’t care less. 

Hollyweird has a lot of nuts. The court just announced the verdict that Depp won the defamation lawsuit, so maybe the name drop of all these celebs did actually serve a purpose.
