Title: I love playing with Barbie dolls

Author: Eveyln Moore/Corrine Barraclough

Publication: UK 3AM Mirror

Issue: June 2005

He’s one of the sexiest stars in Hollywood but Johnny Depp couldn’t be less bothered about his A-List Hollywood heart-throb status.  The 41-year-old hunk prefers the simple life with his family in France to the glitz and glamour of Tinseltown. But don‘t worry you haven’t seen the last of those smouldering came-to-bed eyes, girls. Johnny’s back in two films this month. Starring along side him in The Libertine is Brit talent Smantha Morton and funny man Johnny Vegas, in which Johnny D plays the lead as a drunken 17^th century poet.  Dreamy Depp also shares a screen with Kate Winslet in Finding Neverland, the story of J.M. Barrie, author of Peter Pan. And if that isn’t enough to keep Depp fans happy,  you can also start fantasying about his return as Jack Sparrow in the sequel to box office smash Pirates of the Caribbean.

You‘ve always been labelled as a bit of a rebel in Hollywood — Is that true?

Well I’ve never though of myself that way! I never got that whole rebel thing, you know, the rebellious image.  It was something they slapped on me just to have a name for the product I think.

ABC Entertainment News said today that plans to erect a 150-foot-tall, double-thumbed fist to honor legendary writer-journalist Hunter S. Thompson are underway. The memorial structure will be permanent and is intended to shoot the journalist’s ashes onto his ranch property in a ceremony to be held in August 2005, six months after Thompson committed suicide in his Woody Creek, Colorado Home.

Johnny Depp, who portrayed the writer-journalist in the movie, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas will pay for the tower and is rumored to have had a hand in the design of the structure.

The ceremony will be invitation-only. The cannon-fist will be fired around sunset.Thompson’s widow, Anita, has been quoted as saying, “the event will be a celebration.”

It seem as if Johnny (or Infinitum Nihil) will work together with Warner Bros. on the latest novel of Nick Hornby: “A long way down”.

Maybe he will even take the role as one of the four main characters – a zynical disgraced breakfast TV moderator who thinks of suicide.

Let’s hope, this is true 🙂
