Johnny Depp In Bikini Bottom!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 16:10:00 GMT

He probably won't be nominated for an Oscar for this role, but I'm guessing Johnny Depp's kids will think it's pretty cool that their dad will be joining the cast of Spongebob Squarepants for a special TV presentation!

The New York Daily News is reporting that heartthrob Depp, 45, will joining the cast of the Nickelodeon TV special titled Spongebob vs. The Big One.

No airdate has been announced yet, but Depp will be voicing the character of "Jack Kahuna Laguna," a surfer dude. Totally awesome!

Johnny has two children with Vanessa Paradis - Lily Rose, 9, and Jack, 6.

Johnny Depp Poisoned Himself With Booze

Sassy Smith — Sun, 28 Dec 2008 14:09:00 GMT

Johnny Depp is usually a very private person but has revealed that in order to deal with his rise to fame in the early 90s, he partied hard and drank a lot to escape from the glaring spotlight of stardom.

Depp said, "I never wanted to be the guy people looked at. I felt I could only be myself when I was alone, that I turned into some kind of novelty. The only way I could get through that time was to drink."

He added, "I poisoned myself with alcohol for years but I've never been into drugs int he way it was sometimes made out."

Even now, the 45-year-old actor admits he's still insecure about his abilities on screen, regardless of having critically-acclaimed performances under his belt and three Academy Award nominations.

"I don't think of myself as being a celebrity, it's too mortifying. I have a hard time watching myself on screen and it's getting worse. I can't tell whether my work is good or not." Oh trust me Johnny, you're good. Very good.

I wonder if he'll share that not-so-flattering part of his life with his kids when they get older? He'll probably have to, considering his children could just 'google' their dad and find out all kinds of tidbits!

10 Things You DON'T Know About Johnny Depp

Sassy Smith — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 18:09:00 GMT

Johnny Depp used to be a bit of a bad boy (well more like a very bad boy), some of his movies were not big hits (aka flops) and he's been known to have gotten down and dirty with a few Hollywood starlets. However, the 45-year-old actor has tamed his wild ways, settled down with the love of his life, Vanessa Paradis, made two beautiful children with Vanessa - Lily Rose, 9, and son Jack, 6 - and his career is definitely hot (so is he). Here are 10 things that you may not know about the Pirates of the Caribbean swashbuckler:

From The Post showbiz:

1. Johnny was born the youngest of four children and moved from Kentucky to Florida when he was five. He says: “Before I was 15, we moved 30 times, once just from one house to the house next door. I asked my mom why. I never did understand her explanation.”

2. Johnny was a bit of a rebel as a youngster. He took up smoking at 12, lost his virginity at 13 and was soon dabbling in drugs and booze. He was also suspended from school for mooning a teacher before dropping out at 16 to join garage band The Kids.

3. Johnny played lead slide guitar on Oasis track ‘Fade In-Out’ when the band’s own guitarist was three sheets to the wind. Legend has it he stepped in at the last minute and nailed the lead on one take.

4. Johnny dated a string of beauties including Kate Moss and Winona Ryder but says he is prone to ruining his relationships with jealous rages. He tells us: “Oh boy. Oh f***. I was a professional at it. Oh, the scenarios I dreamed up. Oh f***. Oh. I mean, world-class.”

5. What first attracted Johnny to sultry singer Vanessa Paradis? The sight of her back! He spotted her in the lobby of a Parisian hotel seven years ago and recalls: “Whammo, man, across the room, amazing, incredible, awesome. The back, the back, I saw the back, and I was reduced to [mush].”

6. Johnny has such a close relationship with Tim Burton that he would have sex with an aardvark if the director demanded it.

7. Jack Sparrow’s line in Pirates of the Caribbean “...and then they made me their chief,” is lifted from comedy series The Fast Show, in which Johnny once famously appeared. “I think it’s one of the most brilliant things I’ve ever seen in any medium,” he gushes.

8. How excited was Johnny with his Oscar nominations for Finding Neverland and Pirates Of The Caribbean? Um... not very. He attended the ceremony after his Pirates nod, but moaned: “All Vanessa and I could think of was: ‘When and where can we go smoke?’ And: ‘Where can we get a drink?’ And: ‘When is it over?’ And: ‘Please, don’t let me win’.”

9. Johnny likes to avoid the press by checking into hotels using ridiculous names. He says: “I used to use the name Mr. Stench; it was funny to be in a posh hotel and hear a very proper concierge call out, ‘Mr. Stench, please’.” He has also used Emma Roid but denies reports that he stayed at any establishment under the name ‘Donkey Penis’.

10. Johnny dared What’s Eating Gilbert Grape co- star Leonardo DiCaprio to sniff a rancid pickled egg and paid him $500 when he did the deed.

I'm not sure if he'll want to share all of the juicy details of his past life with his kids as they get older but with the monster that is the internets, he might have a hard time denying such things!

Johnny Depp and The Kid Rock Out

Johnny Depp Not Asked to Play Riddler...Dammit

Karl Erikson — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 15:37:00 GMT

According to Cinematical, superstar actor and dad Johnny Depp, 45, is NOT cast as The Riddler in the next Batman movie. In fact, the film isn't yet in the casting phase. As we showed you here at Famecrawler, Johnny was recently in Pompano Beach, Florida performing with his old ban The Kids. Well, while he was there, Depp did a radio interview.

He was asked about The Riddler gig and Johnny replied, "Oh yeah, I heard about that. Not that I know of. It seems like it'd be a fun gig for a while, yeah."

Since director Christopher Nolan isn't even signed to do the movie yet, we can only HOPE that Depp gets signed to the next film. No doubt there WILL be another Batman movie. It just passed the $500 million mark, and it's only the second movie in history to do that. ("Titanic" was the other.)

Cher to Play Catwoman in the Next Batman Movie? WTF?

Karl Erikson — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 19:34:00 GMT

Are you ready for this? Cher, 62-year-old actress and mother of Chastity Bono and Elijah Blue Allman, is up for the role of Catwoman in the next Batman movie! What, is Catwoman going to be wielding a cane instead of a whip or something? She looks more like Morticia from the Addams Family in this photo.

A studio executive said, "Cher is Nolan's first choice to play Catwoman. He wants to her to portray her like a vamp in her twilight years." Who the hell wants to see Cher in black patent leather? OK, sure, I'm all about Michelle Pfeiffer from the original Batman series, even though Christopher Nolan's versions are far superior. I have a thing for Tim Burton films, what can I say? But Cher as Catwoman? Ugh. Please, let this be a vicious rumor.

The new Batman installment, potentially titled "The Caped Crusader," is set to start filming next year. Word on the street is that they're also getting Johnny Depp to play The Riddler and Philip Seymour Hoffman to play The Penguin.

The Dark Knight - which rocks - is still out in theaters and is already the most successful Batman movie of all time. Heath Ledger is said to be an Oscar favorite, and I can understand why.

Tom Cruise Not Jumping On Oprah

Karen — Sat, 03 May 2008 16:34:00 GMT

When you watch this video of Tom Cruise giving Oprah the house tour, are you like me in that the same word keeps repeating over and over in your head?

"Forced."

Did "Kate's" robochip malfunction there at the beginning? "I love you....I love you....I love you Oprah!"

Suri's "Office under the stairs" might sound a little creepy but it's actually quite cute. Where was she for this? Why do I imagine her in a stark white room being programmed for world domination?

I dunno...the whole thing kinda reminds me of the shining... put your index finger in a crook and say it with me, "TOMMY'S NOT HERE MS. WINFREY."

Tom Cruise Could Only Hold In The Crazy For So Long...

Karen — Sat, 03 May 2008 13:05:00 GMT

With Tom Cruise's recent interview on the Oprah show where he was *twitch twitch* reletively normal, I'm thinking he could only hold it in for so long.

While shopping with Kate and Suri, Tom took it upon himself to chat it up with a complete stranger. A woman. Smiling and laughing with this lady, Tom must have really hit it off with her because he bought her 3 outfits.

The source that tipped us off to the strange purchases, also said

“Tom and Katie are very hands on parents,” the source said. “Suri is a good baby, but didn’t talk at all.”

Uh huh. That's because Xenu doesn't allow Suri to speak when Daddy is busy chatting up and buying things for strange women. And apparently what's good for daughter goes for Mama too.

Daddy’s a Hot Stud: Another Roger Clemens Affair

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 02 May 2008 13:05:00 GMT

That shirt! Those pants! That tongue! Apparently the ladies can’t get enough of Roger Clemens. Do you blame them? That print velour shirt is totally making me want to leave my husband and round the bases with Roger, if you know what I mean. Either that or I will have enough fabric to redo my couch and my loveseat.

Roger’s affair with a 15-year-old Mindy McCready recently came to light, and now the New York Daily News is reporting that he also had an affair with Paulette Dean Daly, former wife of PGA golfer John Daly. Clemens, a married father of four, reportedly arranged trips to Anaheim Stadium for Daly to watch him pitch for the Yankees against the Angels. He also apparently bought her some nachos and one of those big foam fingers. I just made that last part up.

Who’s next? Dear God, please don’t let it be Cher.

Tom Cruise Slipped Cher His Top Gun

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 01 May 2008 13:05:00 GMT

And we thought Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were an odd couple. Apparently Cher (yes, that Cher) reveals in an upcoming Oprah Winfrey show that she once had a fling with Cruise, shortly after the release of "Risky Business."

Cher tells Oprah the brief affair took place when she was 39 and the newbie actor was 23 and admits, "It could have been a great big romance because I was crazy about him."

I'm trying to picture in my mind what this relationship would be like if they had stayed together. Would Cher be a Scientolowife, hanging out with the Beckhams and tending to her and Tom's twelve children (eight of whom were actually fathered by L. Ron Hubbard.)

Then again, maybe Tom would be wearing assless chaps and dancing on an aircraft carrier.

Tom Cruise and Oprah and Not a Couch in Sight

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 17:05:00 GMT

In case you haven't been reading FameCrawler, or are too busy spending your tax rebate check to read the tabloids, Tom Cruise will be making a return visit to the Oprah Winfrey show to celebrate the 25th anniversary of his breakout role in "Risky Business." Yeah, way back when, before the Scientolobots got a hold of him.

This is the first photo released from the two-part interview (airing this Friday, May 2), which took place at Tom's home in Telluride, Colorado. That is one spectacular view from Tom's home - unless it's just an elaborately painted backdrop made to simulate life in a lavish and moneyed environment. Celebrities are clever that way.

But, hey look - no couch!

In the second segment, which will air on Monday, May 5, Tom will join Oprah at her studio in Chicago. Let's hope Oprah removes the furniture.

How To Tell Your Kids You're Getting A Boob Job

Sassy Smith — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 21:38:00 GMT

Getting a boob job? Tummy tuck? Nose job? Cheek implants? Whatever your pleasure is, now you have an easy way to tell your kids that you're going for surgery and may look different. Trust me - I'm writing this trying not to fall over from laughing too hard.

Surgeon Dr. Michael Salzhauer from Florida, has written a book, specifically a "kid's book" titled My Beautiful Mommy and it helps you, as a mom, talk to your child about your recent plastic surgery. It's geared towards kids between the ages of 4 and 7 and helps answer those tough questions - like when your six year old asks why your boobs are way bigger and not hanging to your waist anymore. Or why mommy ~~is scary looking~~ doesn't quite look the same.

Newsweek wrote:

"My Beautiful Mommy is aimed at kids ages four to seven and features a plastic surgeon named Dr. Michael (a musclebound superhero type) and a girl whose mother gets a tummy tuck, a nose job and breast implants. Before her surgery the mom explains that she is getting a smaller tummy: 'You see, as I got older, my body stretched and I couldn't fit into my clothes anymore. Dr. Michael is going to help fix that and make me feel better.' Mom comes home looking like a slightly bruised Barbie doll with demure bandages on her nose and around her waist"

Naturally, it has a happy ending: mommy winds up "even more" beautiful than before, and her daughter is thrilled."

Right.

Dr. Salzhauer explains, "I tried to skirt that issue in the text itself. The tummy lends itself to an easy explanation to the children: extra skin and can't fit into your clothes. The breasts might be a stretch for a six-year-old." Hmm.

Mother's Day is coming up - this would make a great gift idea for those women in your life that are about to have plastic surgery or recently had it. Better run out and get your copy before they sell out. Run!!!!!!!

When Celebrity Plastic Surgery Goes Bad & Stars Are Scary Looking

Sassy Smith — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 11:02:00 GMT

What happens when celebrities go under the knife one too many times? Nothing good and nothing pretty!

Scary photos after the jump

Donatella Versace:

The Italian fashion designer looked quite normal back in the 90's but now? Scary with a capital HOLD ME, I'M SCARED. She's obviously had some plumping done in her lips but it also looks like she plumped the rest of her face, as in she looks swollen. I doubt swollen is a look that most celebrities (or anyone in general) aim for. But Donatella has succeeded! Seriously, the woman is 52 but she looks older (could also be a result of her admitted 18-year cocaine habit). Was that her goal? To look like she's been stung by a swarm of bees? I doubt it. Step away from the Botox and fillers Donatella.

Michael Jackson:

What's to say really? He went from a cute up and coming popstar with a nice face and beautiful smile to a man with a face that is virtually unrecognizable from days gone by. And about the only thing that stayed the same on Jackson are his teeth. His obsessive compulsion to radically alter his appearance is weird and has added to his overall creepiness. I mean his nose doesn't even look like a nose at this point and there had been rumors that his honker was literally falling off. Yuck. And who are the plastic surgeons that keep operating on the former King of Pop? It needs to stop - well, not that it'll do any good now. The damage is done!

Melanie Griffith:

Melanie Griffith used to be cute as a button, attractive actress with the bubbly little voice. Her voice is pretty much the same but her looks? Um, hate to break it to you Melanie, but the Botox and/or face lift and lip injections - have added to your age and not really helped you in the "trying to stay youthful looking" quest. Please don't go down the path of Joan Rivers who's face looks pulled and stretched to the max. Stop now while there's still a sliver of hope. Griffith's husband, Antonio Banderas has publicly said of her attempts at false enhancement: "The lust for beauty is a terrible thing. I have forbidden her from ever going to a cosmetic surgeon again. It is something we have agreed to for the sake of our marriage. Whew, the voice of reason!

Priscilla Presley:

Priscilla, Priscilla, Priscilla - you were always such a beauty and I bet you would have aged gracefully without any enhancement. But your "enhancement" has turned into something scary. Perhaps part of it is that the one time married to Elvis, mother of Lisa Marie, had a surgeon who reportedly injected her face with auto mechanic-grade silicone. Can you even imagine? As scary as that is, I think there's more too it though. Her cheeks are chipmunk-like, her face doesn't move (Botox overload?), there's not a line or wrinkle on her and yet she's 62 and her lips are waaaay too puffy. I mean really, she looks beyond artificial. Please, back away from the Botox.

Janice Dickinson:

Janice Dickinson, the self proclaimed "first supermodel" doesn't deny that just about everything about her is "fake." That being said, she too should just embrace what looks (?) she may have left. I mean sure, give plastic surgery a go if that's what makes you happy but know when to call it quits. She's just plain scary. She's reportedly had almost 12 procedures done and I'd say that's about 10 too many. Even her son has asked her to stop, fearing it might ruin her looks. Uh, sweetie, I think it's might be a tad too late for that. For the love of all that is sane, listen to your boy.

Cher:

I love Cher, I really do. I was heartbroken when I missed her last concert here - but I digress. Really though, the many surgeries she's obviously had, are making her look like she's had many surgeries. I'm thinking that the goal of having plastic surgery is too look refreshed, perhaps make you look less tired, give you a slightly more youthful appearance - not try to make you look 25 when you're 60 something. Cher has said of herself, thast she's the "plastic surgery poster girl." She's had her nose done, breast implants and many other procedures to her face/skin. So, that's alot, time to retire going under the knife. Even Jodie Foster has spoken about Cher's multiple surgeries, saying the singer is "fighting a losing battle" against aging. Jodie Foster might be right.

Meg Ryan:

She used to ooze cuteness. Now? Her face barely moves and the trout lips - please - they gotta go! If you weren't born with full lips, trying to get them artificially really doesn't work. I think if Meg stops now, she can get back to a more natural appearance. I mean she looks good without all of that Botox and lip work!

Nicole Kidman:

Anyone can see that Nicole Kidman has gone nuts with Botox. While I don't think she's necessarily had any surgeries as of yet (I could be wrong though), she most definitely has a love affair with getting injected with needles. Perhaps now that she's preggo, she's not had any Botox lately and will see that if she stops, she can get back to her normally pretty, good looks. I mean even at 40, she still looks youthful, so embrace that Nic!

Sylvester Stallone:

Anyone listening? Stop.the.Botox. Stallone's now face just barely resembles his younger face. Sure age plays a part in anyone looking different from 1980 to 2008 - but so does overdoing the plastic surgery and other procedures. Hey Rocky, time to embrace what's left of your looks and be happy.

Jackie Stallone:

Like son, like mother? Or other way around? Either way, she's gone so far over the edge with her looks, I highly doubt she'll ever come back. Sylvester's mom either has too much time on her hands and she gets plastic surgery and Botox to kill time or she truly thinks she looks awesome. Not to sound mean, but ya, she doesn't look awesome. Nuff said.

Remember people, less is more in most cases.

Celebrity Baby Due Dates

Cher Had Sex With Tom Cruise?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 13:05:00 GMT

What? Am I in the Twilight Zone? Cher did the nasty with Tom Cruise?

Cher was recently on Good Morning America and she confirmed that she did indeed date Tom Cruise in the '80s. While she didn't exactly say that she had sex with the creepy Scientologist, I'll assume they did it.

She said that Tommy wasn't a Scientologist back then and that he was "just the most adorable man you can imagine." I'm speechless.

Another little tidbit of interest is that her ex - father to her daughter Chastity - Sonny Bono was a Scientologist. Um really? Maybe they weren't as weird back then.
