On why Johnny Depp is pretty cool:

[theweaselking]

quoth cavalorn:

First he gives one million pounds of his own money to Great Ormond St. Children's Hospital to say thankyou for treating his daughter, without telling anyone about it.

But it transpires he ALSO had his Jack Sparrow costume flown over from LA, and spent four hours reading bedtime stories to sick children. As Jack Sparrow. This was back on November 29th last year, and it's only just made the news.

Story here.

More actors should get out of Hollywood and live in the French countryside, maybe.

What a dude

Huh. I had no idea he was married to Paradis.

Last heard of her when I was taking French in high school. She's grown up pretty tasty.

Someone was telling me about this article they'd read, about who were the best and worst celebrities to ask for autographs.

Apparently, Johnny Depp is at the top of the "best" list, which means he almost never refuses an autograph request. So yeah, evidently a pretty awesome guy all around.

(The "worst" on the list was Cameron Diaz, which surprises me not at all, though I am surprised Will Ferrell wasn't on the list, because from what I hear he not only refuses to sign autographs, at all, but is beyond snotty about it.)
