Is Johnny Depp Shading Amber Heard?

Could be my hearing but it sounds like Johnny Depp still has some unsaid words for his ex-wife Amber Heard, and, what better way to express it than penning it down in a song?

Recently, Johnny reportedly wrote two new songs on his friend Jeff Beck’s upcoming music album but from the look of things, it seems Depp penned down his thoughts towards his ex-wife in the song lyrics. In one ditty, Johnny sings, “I think you’ve said enough for one motherf***ing night,” per The Sunday Times of London.

While Johnny didn’t mention Amber by name in any of the lines (much like Amber never mentioned his name in her op-ed), fans of the Pirates of the Caribbean star may be prone to conclude art is imitating life. One of the tracks is titled “Sad Motherf**king Parade” and Johnny croons the words, “You’re sitting there like a dog with a seven-year itch.” Another lyric, which comes after Johnny was awarded $10 million in compensatory damages, reads, “If I had a dime, it wouldn’t reach your hand.”

Johnny Depp News — Amber Heard Is Demanding Mistrial

After losing the defamation case to Johnny Depp, Amber Heard has been fighting tooth and nail to get the case re-tried, Heard went as far as officially declaring her desire to appeal the verdict on June 24. Now, two weeks after her verdict appeal confirmation, it appears she will be getting what she wants.

Mind you, both Amber Heard and Johnny Depp sued each other for defamation. In 2019, Depp filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against Heard over her 2018 Washington Post op-ed detailing her experiences as a domestic violence survivor. Though it doesn’t mention Depp by name, his lawyers argued that the references to him (as well as Heard’s previous public abuse allegations against him) were clear, claiming it damaged his career and reputation.

The trial began in Virginia in April and concluded last month in Depp’s favor. The jury ruled that Heard defamed him and awarded him $15 million in damages. Heard scored a small victory in her defamation countersuit, receiving $2 million in compensatory damages and no punitive damages. The verdict stood in stark contrast to the ruling in Depp’s failed 2020 lawsuit against The Sun, wherein he sued the British newspaper for calling him a wife-beater.

The Wrong Juror

In court documents submitted on July 8 in the circuit court of Fairfax County, Va., the Aquaman actress‘ lawyers claimed one of the jurors who partook in the case was not supposed to be there in the first place, per Deadline.

“Ms. Heard had a right to rely on the basic protection, as prescribed by the Virginia Code, that the jurors in this trial would be individuals who were actually summoned for jury duty,” the partially redacted filing reads. “In this case, it appears that Juror No. 15 was not, in fact, the same individual as listed on the jury panel. Ms. Heard’s due process was therefore compromised. Under these circumstances, a mistrial should be declared, and a new trial ordered.”

Heard’s attorneys allege that two people with the same last name live at the address where the summons was sent in April: a 77-year-old and a 52-year-old. The older individual was called to serve on the jury but, according to Heard’s lawyers, the younger one showed up to court.

“Thus, the 52-year-old sitting on the jury for six weeks was never summoned for jury duty on April 11 and did not ‘appear in the list,’ as required,” reads the motion.
