Johnny Depp is a douche?

Almost everyone loves Johnny Depp. He’s talented, he’s quirky, he’s intelligent, he’s soft on the eye and he seems genuinely nice. In fact, he’s one of the few Hollywood hotties that has an equal number of male and female fans.

Women want to marry him, men want to be his friend.

And after decades of successfully handling interviews – he does come across as a bit weird sometimes, but hey, as I said: quirky – he has finally put his foot in it.

In a recent interview with Vanity Fair Johnny Depp, to general public consternation, equated being photographed with getting rape.

I’m hoping he was a bit drunk.

The actor did apologise for it almost immediately though:
“I am truly sorry for offending anyone in any way. I never meant to. It was a poor choice of words on my part in an effort to explain a feeling. I understand there is no comparison and I am very regretful.  In an effort to correct my lack of judgment, please accept my heartfelt apology.”
