Here is Johnny Depp at a London Sweeney Todd Press Conference.  I think Johnny is much better looking onscreen than in real life.  I dunno, his style is very unsexy (to me).

Johnny Depp has painted a portrait of his girlfriend, which has become the cover of her new album.

Depp has painted a portrait of the mother of his two children, French pop star Vanessa Paradis, for her upcoming album, Divine Idylle.

His rose- and gold-toned album cover isn’t the only family member’s contribution to Vanessa’s first pop record in seven years! Their 5-year-old son, Jack, sings a few lines in “Jackadi,” the last song on the album.

While Depp helped his wife out in her professional life by painting for her album, she has been said to have given him singing lessons so he can do his own vocals in the upcoming Sweeney Todd musical.

As usual, Johnny is playing another odd-ball character. It looks sort of creepy!

Johnny Depp will produce and star in Warner Independent’s adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s autobiographical 1959 book The Rum Diaries. Depp will play Paul Kemp, a freelance newspaper journalist in 1950s Puerto Rico who is surrounded by a group of self-destructive lost souls.

Thompson wrote the novel when he was 22, before he developed his trademark ”gonzo” style of writing. Though written in 1959, Rum Diaries was not published until 1998.

Depp previously starred in a movie adaptation of Thompson’s 1972 novel Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. The actor just finished shooting Sweeny Todd and is expected to start work on Rum Diaries after he wraps Shantaram, Mira Nair’s adaptation of the novel about an Australian drug addict who returns to a life of crime after escaping to India.

Last week, it was announced that Depp’s production company was working with King’s GK Films on a movie adaptation of the 1960s supernatural soap opera Dark Shadows.

Fear & Loathing is one of the strangest movies I’ve ever seen.  Yikes.

Johnny Depp has been branded an “arsehole” after trying to start a fight with Blur bassist Alex James. The rocker reveals he found it difficult to interact with other celebrities when his band was propelled to fame in the 1990s - and stars like Depp did little to help the situation.

He recalls, “I met (Depp) in Soho House, and he was an arsehole. He wanted to talk to the girl I was with, and he poured a pint of Guinness over me. Very weird. I think he wanted me to (hit him). But I just went home with the girl instead, which would have hurt him more.”
