Johnny Depp

Johnny has bought a new house for himself, Vanessa, Lily-Rose, and Jack! According to reports, Johnny has bought a $2.6 million, 150-year-old Somerset mansion in Britain’s West Country. Apparently, he fell in love with it as soon as he saw it.

Reports are that he, Vanessa, and the kids are waiting for $5 million dollars worth of renovations to be done before moving in. There’s also talk that he is planning to install a helicopter pad and swimming pool!

“He’s made regular trips overseeing the work,” a source told British newspaper The Sun.
Johnny already owns homes in France and the United States, as well as his island in the Bahamas.

Looks like there’s not much chance of the family being homeless anytime soon! Those old British mansions are lovely. I wonder if they’ll release any photos of the renovations. Seeing how he and Vanessa decorate the place would be wonderful!

Canada.com has published the results of an online survey by Grohe, a manufacturer of bath, shower, and kitchen products. The survey reveals just what Americans and Canadians do while in the shower.

In addition to singing, people admit that they’ve made some of the biggest decisions of their lives while soaping up-things like moving, changing jobs, getting married or divorced, having kids, etc. North Americans report multi-tasking, such as having sex in the shower, or cleaning the shower while they’re cleaning themselves! Now, if only we could get those two groups together!

Then, the discussion gets around to the celebs we’d most like to have in the shower with us! Naturally, Johnny tops the list of males, along with George Clooney and Brad Pitt. Favorite females were Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba, and Pamela Anderson.

Now, I could go along with having Johnny in my shower-and not just ’cause my back needs scrubbing! How about the rest of you out there?

(Apologies and all due respect to Vanessa Paradis!)

Here are a few of the Johnny Depp-related books slated to be released, and currently available for pre-order on Amazon. It’s a great line-up. Every one of them should be fantastic!

Johnny Depp enjoys a fan base quite unlike any other modern-day star — grown women sigh over his sexiness, children adore him as Willy Wonka, hipsters relate to his subversive streak. The Johnny Depp Photo Album documents its subject’s unstoppable rise via a wealth of film stills and candid shots away from the set. It chronicles every step of Depp’s career: cult films like Benny and Joon; current releases like the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Sweeney Todd; his drunken, bad-boy period; and his affairs with Winona Ryder and Kate Moss. It also reveals Depp’s life away from the madness of Hollywood — there are rare glimpses of his life partner, Vanessa Paradis, and their two children, whom he aggressively shields from the media spotlight. Through its irresistible array of color and black and white images, this strikingly designed tribute reveals the family man who just happens to be the greatest screen star on the planet.

This one doesn’t have a book description yet, but it’s a companion book to the movie. It’s a 160-page hardcover from Titan Books, scheduled for release on Dec. 4, 2007. The forward is by Tim Burton, and there are extensive photos and interviews with cast and crew.

Originally published in 1997, this book is scheduled for reissue on November 1, 2007. It’s a 151-page paperback from Anova books.

Johnny’s Pirates of the Caribbean co-star, Keira Knightley, is the new face of Chanel. And is her ad ever sexy and gorgeous! Keira’s posed only in a strategically placed bowler hat and white shirt!

A Chanel spokesman was quoted on Sky Showbiz as saying:

“We think Keira is perfect because she is always incredibly alluring and seductive.

“She would not have looked out of place in the ’40s or ’50s, and that’s why she was chosen - to show a timeless chic that will never fade.”

Former faces of Chanel include Kate Moss, Nicole Kidman, Catherine Deneuve, and none other than Johnny’s prettier half-Vanessa Paradis! Keira can hold her own with any of them!

The Times of India is reporting that Johnny has bought a penthouse loft in the Eastern Columbia Building, considered to be one of the most beautiful of Los Angeles’ historic buildings. The penthouse has private decks and full views of downtown, and the San Bernadino mountains.

Apparently, the price was $2 million. Neighbors include T.R. Knight, of Grey’s Anatomy and Oscar nominee Ryan Gosling. Guess you can’t spend all your time living on an island! Especially when you’re working! Congratulations to Johnny and Vanessa and family on their new digs!

Will Johnny and Vanessa Paradis finally tie the knot? Showbiz Spy reports that the wedding bell buzz has reached deafening proportions in Paris, and that the two could be married by the end of July.

Of course, we’ve heard all this several times before. The most recent buzz was earlier this year when Johnny and Vanessa’s daughter, Lily-Rose, was recovering from a serious illness. The two have been together since 1998. It’d be nice to see a wedding between the two. Maybe for their ninth anniversary together?
