ZeeNews – Johnny Depp claims the secret to his happy relationship with Vanessa Paradis is that they never speak about Hollywood.

He said: “We have a miraculous understanding of one another – and we don’t ever talk about the business. We don’t talk about her work or my work. So our life in that sense is very simple.”

Depp – who has previously dated a number of famous beauties, including supermodel Kate Moss – also claims the reason he and Vanessa are so happy is because they are best friends as well as lovers.

He added: “We are great, great friends and are very much in love.”

BBC NEWS – The first film was a global blockbuster and earned praise for its cast, especially Johnny Depp.

The movie has returned to its spiritual home: the film was based on a theme park ride at the children’s resort.

“The sort of horizon has been broadened ever so slightly,” said Depp. “We were able to put a few new things in. Bits and bobs.”

The star confirmed that the rock and roll legend was in talks to have a role in the third film, which is currently in production.

“They are talking about it. Yeah, they are talking about it,” he told AP television news.

Has the success of the Pirates franchise trapped Johnny Depp in the mainstream fame he has avoided for so long? – by Stephanie Bunbury for The Age.

Just off the top of my head, here are three very good things about Johnny Depp:

(a) He is, as the Victorians used to say, as beautiful as the day.

(b) He isn’t stupid.

(c) He doesn’t say much.

Which makes him a film journalist’s dream, really. In fact, I don’t know of any movie hack who doesn’t go a bit mushy round the edges when JD’s name comes up. Johnny Depp is one of the great Hollywood stories: the untrained teen heartthrob who turned out to be one of the truly serious, committed and brilliant screen actors of our era; the bad boy turned good; the romantic adventurer who finally met the right woman – French singer and actress Vanessa Paradis, with whom he now has two children – and settled down, just as romantically, in the Provencale countryside.

Access Hollywood – Actor shares golden moment with Maria Menounos

…”Now did your kids to see this (Pirates of the Caribean: Dead Man’s Chest) yet or will they see it?” Maria asked Johnny.

“They haven’t seen it yet because I haven’t seen it yet,” Johnny revealed. “As a parent I think the responsible thing to do is check it out, for the little ones, just to make sure there’s nothing that’ll spook them.”

“When will you see it?” Maria followed up.

“I will fight tooth and nail until the very last minute, until they push me in front of the screen and then I’ll see it,” Johnny grinned.

So why the hesitation?

“It’s just always weird for me to watch myself. I’ve never been comfortable with it. I have the experience, that’s enough for me,” he admitted… [More…]

Hey, isn’t that Johnny Depp chasing the serving wench? – by Natalie Finn for ENews Online!

When the Pirates of the Caribbean ride reopens June 26 at Disneyland after being shuttered since March, visitors will be treated to bigger cannon explosions, more gold doubloons and an animatronic figure of Captain Jack Sparrow from the film franchise originally inspired by the classic theme park attraction.

Basically, Disney made movies based on a ride and, in turn, is now making the ride look more like the movies. Which, when you think about it, is pretty much what the company has been doing for the past 50 years.

This reintroduction to Jack Sparrow’s wily ways has been craftily timed, of course, to coincide with the nationwide July 7 release of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, the sequel to 2002’s smash hit, The Curse of the Black Pearl, which has grossed more than $653 million worldwide and turned Depp into a $20 million man. (A third film is already slated for a late May 2007 opening.) [More…]

I’m from pheonix, Arizona. My family including my dad, mom and cousin came to California for the premiere. We stayed at the Disney Hotel. On The day of the peremiere My cousin and I woke up at 5:30 we got ready and were at the park at 6. There were tons of people with costumes and posters. I knew this would be a problem cause on a normal day they stop adults and tell them they are not allowed to wear there costumes. So I saw many people being turned around. I was glad I didn’t wear my grand pirate costume. The gates to Disney opened at 6:30. It wasn’t a very busy day.( we are Disney regulars with annual passes). The red carpet curled around town square and down mainstreet. My cousin and I sat down right against the barracades. We sat there for 12 hours! Then we finally stood. Between the barracades and many other anxioux people behind us we were smooshed.For the next hour and a half many famous walked down the carpet. Finally we hear people chanting Keira and then there was chanting for Orlando. As people were getting Blooms signature I saw Johnnys’ hat I started crying right away so did my cousin. Thats when Orlando came by me and put his hand on my should and said ” aww its okay he’ll be here in a minute” he then took my news weekly magazine and signed the back of it. Johnny finally made his way down by us.

A spectacular time was had at the DMC premiere by myself and fellow Zoners Liz, DITHOT, KYWoman, luvdepp, DepplySmitten, Charlene and ZsaZsa. We were camped on two sides of the red carpet at the very start of the carpet and the start of a very long, hot day. Kudos to Disneyland who tried to make the experience as good as it could be under the circumstances.

This truly had to be one of the longest red carpets ever. It stretched from a circular walkway at the park entrance to the end of Main Street. I?m sure that at least a thousand fans camped from dawn till after dark and many more joined us over the course of the day. The crowds surrounding us were overwhelmingly friendly and respectful of one another.

Showtime couldn?t come soon enough, but once it did, it seemed to be over in the blink of an eye. All the supporting cast members?Kevin, MacKenzie, Lee?were very gracious. And Jerry B, Gore, Keira, and Orlando all stopped to chat when they signed autographs. They were all very genuine and genuinely touched by the outpouring of excitement and devotion. Of course, Johnny came last and no one tried harder to cover the carpet. He was calm, charming and very focused on the person in front of him at that moment. The circumstances were unbelievably tough? he moved surrounded by his personal entourage, studio handlers, Disney security, photographers and invited guests who all wanted a piece of him.

Meeting all the celebs was exciting, having never done this sort of thing before, but watching Johnny making his way down the red carpet was surreal. I was very pleased to have been able to see him so close and actually have words with him. I had my beaded danglies that I made him and my Fear and Loathing book all ready to go. When he got to me, I opened the book to where I wanted him to sign and the danglies were laying there in a silk, see-through pouch. I told him I made them for him and he looked through the pouch at them and then looked up at me smiling (with that gorgeous ‘golden’ smile) and said “Ah, swag.” He took them and handed them to an assistant, then thanked me and I asked him to sign my book. While doing that I told him that he did a wonderful thing for Hunter Thompson and his family (referring to the funeral ‘send off’ at Woody Creek) and he said ” He was a good man.” After he signed my book, I thanked him again and he said “Thank you for coming and being here today” , said while his hand was over his heart. All the while he was calm, in the moment and only paying attention to you, making wonderful eye contact *sigh* before moving on. I just stood there and watched (and took pics) as he continued down the red carpet. A moment I won’t soon forget.

My friend and I arrived at 6:30 in the morning. We made a made dash to score our spot on Main Street in front of the train station. It was a sweet
spot because none of the cast would have to deal with interviews (the cameras were further up)

We met some terrific people, we played Pirates Monopoly and just chilled (or sweated to be more accurate) until 5pm. The big moment finally arrived (for
me) when Orlando stepped onto the red carpet. I made a vow to myself if I could only get one autograph it would be his. He made his way over, first
he signed my book, then he headed to the other side. He came BACK to our side, I called out “Orlando!” He looked over, smiled and asked how I was. I
said fine. He saw my camera out, took it, and leaned in to snap a picture with me. I made sure to rest my hand on his shoulder.

Then Johnny made his way down surrounded by cameras. The girl behind me was a Johnny fan, she kept shoving me into the barricade. I tried pushing her
back, but she kept fighting with me. I yelled out I couldn’t breathe, so by the time Johnny got in front of me, I wanted to cry and I wasn’t sure what
was going on. I know he was right there, and I couldn’t get a good clear shot of him due to hands,
