JOHNNY DEPP: HOW NOT TO GET A DIVORCE

There’s no doubt that Johnny Depp’s career has taken a severe beating since he split with wife Amber Heard in 2016. The lawsuit he filed against The Sun for calling him a “wife-beater” was a nightmare- he was drilled about his behavior in court and all sorts of negative conduct involving drugs and alcohol were dredged up and he looked BAD. And he lost. It cost him all his big ticket movie roles (Fantastic Beasts, Pirates of the Caribbean etc) His current 50 million dollar defamation lawsuit against Amber (she wrote in the Washington Post that she is a “domestic abuse survivor”) will no doubt repeat those debauched stories about him. He’s in a bad place and he and Amber are both spending a fortune on lawyers. Depp did manage to make a movie –City of Lies- that is showing, but not in competition, at the Deauville American Film Festival. His fans were happy to see him there, even if he did a lot of complaining about being blackballed in Hollywood…

KATHY GRIFFIN: NOT AS HARD UP AS YOU THINK

Kathy Griffin’s house in the Hollywood Hills has been on the market for awhile, and it finally sold for four and a half million dollars, according to the LA Times. Is she downsizing? Not yet. Kathy bought her current 13,400 sq ft Bel Air mansion last year (before the Trump photo debacle) for nearly 11 million dollars. Yes, this is the house where she has a restraining order against her volatile neighbor. Whether she can afford to KEEP the big house remains to be seen. She’s handling her “blackballing” by badmouthing Andy Cohen and TMZ’s Harvey Levin, yet she wants to remain a friend to the LGBT community. Actually, her gay fans are the core of her success as a comic, and we predict they WILL help her make a comeback. But whether her comeback is enough to support an 11 million dollar house remains to be seen.
