He?s a fascinating artist with an amazing body of work, so it?s no wonder Johnny Depp is one of the most interesting people in showbiz.
The ?Pirates of the Caribbean? star sat down with ?Today? anchor Savannah Guthrie to discuss his new film ?Transcendence? though talk quickly turned to his engagement to Amber Heard.
After confirming their engagement, Depp sang his lady?s praises- ?She?s a wonderful girl. She?s sharp as a tack, a wonderful southern belle and sweet as can be and very good for me.?
Guthrie alluded to a rumor that Johnny and Amber are ?expecting,? to which he asked, ?Expecting what? A child? Good God, what do you think I am, a savage??
Savannah followed up, ?Any truth to it?? Depp stated, ?No, no, no. It?s not a shotgun affair.?
And though he?s best known for his acting chops, Johnny?s first love has always been music. ?Rock star ambitions, I think those you have as a little kid. I certainly had them. It was all I wanted.?

He?s betrothed to the beautiful Amber Heard, and Johnny Depp doesn?t mind wearing a reminder that he?s spoken for.
During his interview on ?The Late Show with David Letterman,? the ?Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas? actor offered an explanation as to why he has a diamond engagement ring on his hand.
Depp simply stated, ?I have a female engagement ring. It was too big for my girl.? Presumably he purchased one in her size as well.
Meanwhile, Johnny also commented on Letterman?s announcement that he?s retiring from the show next year, joking that Dave stole his thunder regarding a departure from acting.

Cleaned up and looking snazzy to promote his new film, Johnny Depp stopped by the "Late Show with David Letterman" on Thursday (April 3).
The "Pirates of the Caribbean" star donned a brown vest, brown leather jacket, and pinstriped trousers as he posed for a few pics before heading inside.
While on the promotional rounds for "Transcendence" in Beijing on Monday, the 50-year-old actor took a moment to speak about his fiance, Amber Heard.
Speaking to the "Today" show, Johnny gushed, "She's a wonderful girl. She's sharp as a tack. A southern belle and sweet as can be, and very good for me."

Perhaps I spoke too soon. Johnny Depp’s been looking really good during his visit to Bejing. This visit coincided with an old-school Johnny photoshoot and interview. I fell for all of it. When Johnny showed up to yesterday’s Transcendence premiere, the spell was broken. He suddenly looks exactly as he has appeared for the past year — a 50-year-old actor striving to look hip and funky in the midst of a mid-life crisis.
I’ll give Johnny this much. He’s always gracious to his fans. The Wall Street Journal covered the Bejing press conference. Some fans endured a 16-hour train ride to see Johnny, and he obliged. He also kissed a little booty by complimenting “the level of art, the eons of culture” in Chinda. He added, “I could live here easily. It’s a warm experience.” Too bad it’s no longer Johnny’s decision where he lives, right?
Johnny also told the audience that he refuses to watch his own movies: “I stopped that a long time ago.” That detail isn’t new, but his refusal to read his own press is rather defiant: “I prefer to remain ignorant.” Do you hear that? Johnny doesn’t hear you making fun of his mangagement ring. Johnny does not care.
I do wonder where Amber Heard is during this tour. She’s probably shooting a movie, but Johnny gave up everything to attend her premiere last month. I guess we know who wears the pants in this relationship. And we also know (thanks to many of you) who wears the mom jeans.

He?s been busy doing promotion for his new film ?Transcendence? as of late, and last night (March 31) Johnny Depp showed up at the big Beijing premiere.
The ?Pirates of the Caribbean? hunk was happy to pose with locals in his white shirt/bolo tie combo outside the Grand Hyatt Hotel ahead of the screening.
And these days Johnny is gearing up to tie the knot with his girlfriend Amber Heard- he even has his own diamond engagement ring.
Depp told Chinese press, ?The fact that I'm wearing a chick's ring on my finger is probably a dead giveaway. Not very subtle? [As for preparations] I think that I would be better at making women's shoes than I would be at wedding planning, I can't plan anything. I'm really bad at that stuff.?

These are photos of Johnny Depp promoting Transcendence in Bejing yesterday. God, he looks good. No scarves. The dark hair is back. He’s into this press tour. Johnny smiled, kissed some children and showed off his tattoos for the curious journos. Mr. Depp wants us to think of him as an actor again. His team is working some serious game to make us remember the old Johnny. Is it working?
Try as Johnny might, the subject of his engagement to Amber Heard came up during this press conference. They’ve been engaged for over two months and threw a celeb-filled party to celebrate. Johnny’s been wearing a mangagement ring. Questions will be asked. Johnny finally verbally confirmed what we already knew. He is engaged for the 459th 5th time. This time it’s different. Because Johnny is wearing a “chick ring.” His words! This is rather charming:
Depp-initely engaged! Johnny Depp isn’t one for explicit, direct public statements about his private life — so when the Lone Ranger star, 50, “opened up” about his top-secret engagement to Amber Heard in Beijing on Monday March 31, it was typically quirky.
The Associated Press reports that Depp was asked whether he was, in fact, engaged. “The fact that I’m wearing a chick’s ring on my finger is probably a dead giveaway. Not very subtle,” Depp replied. The AP explains that the Pirates of the Caribbean actor was wearing a ring featuring a “single diamond on a band around his ring finger. And indeed, it really is a “chick’s ring,” one source tells Us Weekly: The engagement ring Depp gave Heard, 27, was “too big for her, so he started wearing it,” explains the source.
Us confirmed back in mid-January that Depp had proposed to his Rum Diaries costar Heard after about a year and a half of dating. Promoting new film Transcendence in China Monday, Depp also fielded a question about any potential wedding plans. “I think that I would be better at making women’s shoes than I would be at wedding planning, I can’t plan anything,” the 21 Jump Street alum reasoned. “I’m really bad at that stuff.”
As previously revealed, the future spouses celebrated their impending nuptials at an engagement party held inside The Carondelet House in L.A. March 14 with pals like Marilyn Manson, Steven Tyler and Mandy Moore in attendance.
It will be the first marriage for Heard and the second for Depp, who was married to Lori Anne Allison for two brief years in the mid-80s. He and French actress/singer Vanessa Paradis were in a relationship for 14 years before announcing their split in June 2012. They share kids Lily-Rose, 14, and Jack, 11.

Hmm. We could take Johnny at his “quirky” word and believe that he bought Amber a ring that didn’t fit, so he decided to wear it and buy her another one. Hasn’t he ever heard of resizing a ring? He didn’t buy one that was too small if he can wear it. The subtext here is that Johnny bought Amber a ring, and she wasn’t impressed. So daddy went and bought one with a much bigger stone. I could be wrong, but we posted photos of both Johnny and Amber’s engagement rings here. Those are completely different rings — both in style and size. You be the judge.

Johnny Depp covers April’s issue of Interview magazine to promote Transcendence. (He appeared in Vegas with Morgan Freeman last week to talk about the film. We didn’t cover the pics, but they’re here.) Are you surprised to see Johnny promoting a new movie? It feels like it’s been forever. He’s still a movie star, after all. A movie star that’s posing with a teddy bear on the cover of a respectable magazine. Go ahead, crack that Amber Heard joke. You know you wanna. The joke isn’t even about Amber, so don’t feel guilty about it.
This Bruce Weber (!) shoot is a little overwhelming for fans of Johnny’s long-standing cool phase. I’m seeing so many shades of the old Depp here. He’s playing guitar and looking all rock ‘n’ roll with those forearm tattoos blazing. He reads a book about Thelonious Monk to an Uggie (the dog) lookalike as a creepy sculpture looks on approvingly. This is a very strong editorial, and Depp’s mangagement ring takes a breather.
Johnny is interviewed by Iggy Pop. The intro paints Johnny as we used to know him: “A personal mythos as complex and compelling as his career.” There is a detailed discussion Johnny’s major movies and his old-school girlfriends. Amber’s name never comes up, but neither does that of Vanessa Paradis. Never mind that Johnny feels free to interrupt Amber’s interviews. Daddy’s got a reputation to resurrect. Let’s do some excerpts:
His first job: [laughs] “I marketed pens–on the phone. But the beauty of the gig was that you had to call these strangers and say, ‘Hi, how ya doing?’ You made up a name, like, ‘Hey, it’s Edward Quartermaine from California. You’re eligible to receive this grandfather clock or a trip to Tahiti.’ You promise them all these things if they buy a gross of pens. It was just awful. But I actually think that was the first experience I had with acting. I sold one thing, one gross of pens to one guy. And then he was asking me about the trip to Tahiti and I was riddled with guilt, so I told him, ‘Hey, man, you don’t want these f—ing pens. This is a scam. The grandfather clock is made of pressboard. You’re not going to Tahiti. I’m sorry.’ So I talked him out of it.”
How many ciggies does he smoke per day? “I’ll bet a thousand. I’m working my way up to ten thousand.”
Why Transcendence? “What fascinated me more than anything is the correlation between technology and power–the idea that a guy who is able to download his sentient being into a machine can become god, or a version of god. Religion is a fascinating black hole to me.”
On meeting Brando, Ginsberg & all the rest: “There are those who meet their heroes and go, ‘Aw, f—.’ And I’ve never had that, luckily. I was never disappointed by the people I’ve admired.”
On reality tv: “Everything can be a reality show now. Imagine what’s it going to be in 20 f—ing years, man. People get famous now for I-don’t-know-what. People have reality shows because they’re a Hollywood socialite, and these things become very successful and they generate a sh-tload of money for the company. And it’s multiplying, to where you’re literally looking into your next door neighbor’s bathroom with reckless abandon. It is like watching a fire. You can’t take your eyes off of it.”
Johnny is a rock star: “I still approach a scene as one would approach a solo. There’s nothing set or pat. I don’t know what the f—’s going to happen until I get in there. Just like when you’re in the booth and you’re playing a guitar solo, you don’t exactly know how you’re going to phrase this or that. Which I think is beautiful. That idea of chance.”
Johnny’s closing invite to Iggy: “I’ve got to get you and your gal to come out to that little place I got in the Bahamas, man. You could leave your house and be on a beach in, f—, less than two hours. Anonymity is achievable there. And the heart rate slows about 20 beats per minute, within the first 15 minutes of being there. Yeah, we should make a sojourn there.”
[From Interview magazine]
Johnny’s not railing quite as violently as he did in interviews from a few years ago. I mean, he’s not comparing photoshoots to rape. Thank goodness. He does talk like Amber now, doesn’t he? She’s had an influence on him with her talk of “the fleeting and superficial world of tabloid journalism.” Try as he might, Johnny will never escape the tabloids. His splashy kind of wealth and fame come with trappings. Maybe one day he’ll retire to his private island, but I doubt it. His lifestyle is too expensive for retirement.
Why is he bagging on reality television? Johnny loves Honey Boo Boo. Own that sh-t.

Here are some photos of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard exiting their NYC hotel over the weekend. Amber looks lovely and has coordinated some serious coat pr0n with a fetching blue handbag. Johnny looks an utter mess. The Scarf Monster has paired ratty looking jeans and boots with a chewed up hat. His overcoat would be fine, but he spilled something all over the front. The scarf is interesting. Did he and Amber plan the double shot of blue? One notable accessory that you may not have noticed is on Johnny’s left ring finger. Yahoo! is calling it a “man-gagement” ring. Here’s a slightly closer look at Johnny’s new jewelry:
The shiny trinket is said to be a signet-style engagement ring. Johnny was reportedly wearing it at his celeb-filled engagement party. This led MTV UK to wonder whether Johnny and Amber had already gotten hitched on the sly. They are not yet married yet. Johnny is going all out for Amber when it happens. He is utterly devoted to her, and their nuptials will probably be a huge blowout event. Plus … I think Johnny must love the idea of wearing an engagement ring because he is crazy about accessorizing. This man accessorizes more in one week than I have in my entire life. Does wearing a man-gagement ring sound weird to you?
There’s a “new” story circulating that some of you commented about on my last Depp-Heard post. (These two need a coupley nickname.) Johnny has allegedly been talking about retiring, but that’s an old quote from his 2013 Rolling Stone interview. He said, “I’m kicking 50 right up the ass. I can’t say that I’d want to be doing this for another 10 years.” Don’t be fooled. Johnny’s not retiring anytime soon. It costs a lot of money to dress as shabbily as he does. Private islands are expensive to maintain too.

Here are some photos of Amber Heard in New York City on Valentine’s Day with her little dog, Pistol. Amber loves guns, so it makes sense she’d name her dog after them. I still find it very odd to see her with tiny dogs at all. This is a stereotype, but I feel like a gun-loving gal would want at least a medium-sized dog. Like a German Shepherd or an actual Gun dog breed. Oh well.
Amber and Johnny were together in LA last week for their big, coupley red carpet debut for 3 Days to Kill. For whatever reason, Amber must have flown immediately to NYC because she was there on Friday without Johnny. Where was he? In Los Angeles without her. Johnny attended an event solo

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard finally walked a red carpet together! Of course they’ve done this before during the 2011 Rum Diary tour, but that was back when they weren’t “together.” I won’t debate the timeline here. I did, however, get carried away with the number of photos from this premiere. Their body language is so interesting. Amber made Johnny leave the scarves at home. Good call.
This is a pretty big premiere for Amber. She didn’t tag along for Johnny’s Lone Ranger promotion, but now that they are engaged, Johnny made good by showing up to support her role in 3 Days to Kill. Amber plays a sexy FBI agent (for real) opposite Kevin Costner, who plays a dying Secret Service Agent trying to win back his wife and daughter. You can watch the trailer here. It’s nothing special. The movie actually feels like one of the cheesy action movies Angelina Jolie did in her early career. I bring this up again because Amber is very much trying to execute “the Leg” like she did at the Globes.
I’m including some photos of Johnny’s crazy wing-tip shoes, but let’s talk about Amber’s dress. She’s wearing Alexandre Valthier with a dramatic v-neck and leg-baring slit. Amber’s body looks fantastic. Her makeup is just right even if the hair’s a little greasy. Perfect shoes are perfect.
I think Amber’s a total knockout, and I have nothing but respect for her game. Amber may be pretentious and faux art-y (farty?), but she has made all the right moves in this relationship. Johnny’s the one falling all over himself, and Amber is working it. Amber also gave a press conference yesterday about how much she “loves” shooting men in the head. During movies:
Does she like shooting men in the head? “I love it. I love it. Absolutely. It’s a perk of the job. I would rather shoot the gun and save the girl or save the guy or be hated than be cute, sweet and adorable and loved. It’s way more fun. It’s always more fun to play a badass. I always fight for those characters.”
She’s very picky with roles: “I only make a few movies a year because for every one that I take, I’ve said no thanks to many romantic movies where I bat my eyelashes and catch the bouquet.”
On Kevin Costner: “He reminds me of where I come from. He’s a just good ol’ American guy. He reminds of the people I grew up with and who I was raised by, so I got him. He and I just got each other instantly.”
[From E! Online]
Amber never deviates from her message. She doesn’t waste time with silly romantic comedies. This girl is truly angling to be the next Angelina Jolie, which is fine because Angelina really isn’t interested in these types of movies anymore. Now can Amber rack up some box-office successes? We’ll see. I have my doubts.
Here’s some more photos from the premiere. Kevin Costner looks tanned and botoxed to the hilt. So strange.
