Entertainment Weekly, December 2009 – Johnny Depp
Title: Johnny Depp
Author: Chris Nashawaty
Publication: Entertainment Weekly
Issue: December 2009
When the decade began, Johnny Depp wasn’t the Johnny Depp of today. Sure, the critics had anointed him one of the finest actors of his generation, but Depp still hadn’t found his footing at the box office. Back then, he was an artistic martyr—Hollywood’s very own Saint Jude, patron saint of cinematic lost causes. For every middling hit on his oddball résumé like Sleepy Hollow or Chocolat, there was a misfire like Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas.
Then something happened. Johnny Depp found his stride in the most unlikely of places 1t’s easy to look at 2003’s Pirates of the Caribbean Curse of the Black Pearl, a Bruckheimer blockbuster from Disney, and conclude that Depp had finally sold his soul. But anyone who’s seen his lunatic turn as Capt. Jack Sparrow knows better `It’s one of those without-a-net performances, so singular and subversive that it’s hard to believe he got away with it. Which he utmost didn’t when the studio suits saw the dailies and nearly had a collective cardiac infarction.
The First Pirates made $305 million and proved that Depp’s idiosyncratic gifts could entrance a huge mainstream audience. No one was more baffled by his success than Depp himself. When the actor sat down with EW in 2003, he said,
UK-Caesars Player, December 2009 – Johnny Depp the Outsider
Title: Johnny Depp the Outsider
Author: John Lancer
Publication: UK-Caesars Player
Issue: December 2009
Depp may have been master of his own fate, beginning with his decision to desert his starring role in the hugely popular television series 21 Jump Street to act on the big screen. But it hasn’t always been easy.
“I was Sort of thrown into becoming famous he remembers.”There were some battles l had to fight to retain my individuality. I’d get agents who’d say to me,’ Why are you going against the grain?’ But I knew that if I continued the way they wanted me to, it was death; it was just going to be over with. It was a question of standing tall and saying, I’m not going to be what you want me to be. I’m going to be what l want to be.”‘
Instead of trying to become a leading man, Depp picked unconventional roles ranging from the strange teen in cult filmmaker John Waters’ Cry-Baby to the outcast with shears for hands in Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands. And he remained a reluctant celebrity battling against fame with occasional outbursts of pubic anger fuelled by drugs and alcohol. Looking back, he says simply, “I think in many ways I was existing without living”
Now, Depp has left personal angst behind to become one of the hottest stars In Hollywood.

Discography
Johnny is not just an actor, but also a great musician and everyone should look in those facts about his life. Music was of course his first love. Here a list of all his musical works as well as a Narrator discography (other than the soundtracks from the movies where they put some movie lines in)
Bands in his youth (1980-1988)
In his early years, Johnny was a member in several Bands. His first band, Flame, he joined 1978, and he went through several other bands as Zaphyre, Bitch, Bad Boys. In 1980 he joined the band “The Kids” to become their lead guitarist. With the Kids he moved to LA, but they broke up in 1984. There are still some records available from the Kids, which you can find in our downloads section. In 1986, Johnny joins the Rock City Angels. He is also listed as one of the authors for the song “Mary” on their album “Young Man’s Blues” (1988).
Cry Baby (1990)
In this movie he does NOT sing. It seems as if, but no. It is just a perfect lip synchro. Only in the car he sings the first few words parallel to the radio.
Music Videos (1991, 1992, 1994)
Johnny appears as an actor in some Music videos, but he never sings by himself, even if it looks as if.
