Johnny Depp
USA News and Views ^ | 07/26/03 | Paul Walfield

However, Johnny loves “France and [to] be living in a tiny village with nothing around. There is still the possibility to live a simple life. You can go to the market, walk about, buy fruits and vegetables -- the things they did 100 and 200 years ago. We have moments when we're sitting in our house and our kids are playing, and we look at one another and think, 'Thank God we escaped.’”

For Johnny, buying a cucumber or a cabbage from a market is primitive living and living and being in America is a place and state of being, to “escape” from. Just the same, Johnny wants us all to pay U.S. dollars to see him in the movies so he can continue to badmouth the country that allowed him to become an “artiste.”

If anyone dare criticize that pompous little twerp for badmouthing America, it is an “infringement” on his first amendment rights.

"Johnny Depp can say what he wants about this country. This is America.(I don't care if he lives in France or the end of the world.)Maybe you should learn the words Freedom of Speech... or better yet...get a life."


Freedom of Speech does NOT gaurantee you the right to be heard, listened to, or a free venue to voice those words.
It does NOT gaurantee you the right to free advertisement in the media.
Nor does it give you the right to try and tell others what to think.
Isn't that grand?
However, actors should SHUT UP AND ACT instead of being unpaid political consultants.
And musicians should SHUT UP AND SING.

Now THERE would be a perfect world, wouldn't it?
If the actors, and musicians kept their traps SHUT and let uss decide for ourselves rather than doing self-aggrandizing PREACHING from behind the 'shield' of fame and celebrity?

Depp thinks all the little people should move to France and live just like him. He forgets how many Americans and Brits died so he can pal around St Tropez and talk about his cucumbers.

The first time some terrorists lights off a bomb in swanky St Tropez, Depp will be high-tailing it back to N California to open a winery

Depp's problems go beyond that. He's brilliant and has an incredible gift.

He's not brilliant and has no perceptible talent save showing up and looking good.

He's a bit of a wierdo and probably feels comfortable around people who don't know him.

it is obvious that you are no judge of talent.
