DADDY DEPPpeople.com<strong>Johnny Depp may be convincing as a pirate, but only if you haven't seen him with his kids</strong>. During the filming of his next movie, The Secret Window, Depp spent his off-hours with his family. "Johnny played Barbies every day with Lily-Rose," says security expert Buck Holland of Depp's 4-year-old daughter. Besides checking out the latest Barbie accessories, Depp read to Lily-Rose and his son, Jack, 18 months, and had them in tow whenever he went to his favorite Italian restaurant, Da Emma, in Old Montreal. "It was a real family shoot," says Holland.

<strong>JOHNNY DEPP & VANESSA PARADIS: THEIR REAL LIFE REVEALED!</strong>February 10, 2004Star OnlineThe Oscar race is on! And Johnny Depp is up for the coveted best actor award for his eccentric comic turn as the character Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl . So is he toasting the town in Hollywood over his nomination? Nah. He'd rather spend time with his girlfriend of six years, French pop singer/model Vanessa Paradis, and their two children in France.Though not married, Depp, 40, and Paradis, 31, now have two children -- Lily Rose, 4, and Jack John, who turns two in April -- and live in a $2 million Mediterranean mansion on the Cote d'Azur, as well as a smaller home in Paris. And Depp, who fell for France while filming 1999's The Ninth Gate , loves every inch of his new home country. "Paris is a great metropolis, a huge city, but when you get out into the small villages, the warmth of the people is incomparable," Depp has said. "Do I think I'll stay in France for the rest of my life? At the moment I do, honestly."WHERE THEY GO OUTJohnny first spotted Vanessa in 1998 at the posh Hotel Costes K, which is situated on Avenue Kleber, not far from the Champs-Elysee in Paris. The hotel is so exclusive that the front doors are flanked by two black-clad security personnel with walkie-talkies who intercept visitors. The famous can sometimes be seen darting through a secluded side entrance. "We would prefer that the public doesn't know about the famous people who come here," a hotel source said. "Otherwise, they might stop coming."But Depp is much more down to earth, and anyone can sit at one of his tables at his Paris restaurant/ bar Man Ray, also located just off the Champs- Elysee. Depp still owns the infamous Viper Room in Hollywood, but finds himself in Paris far more often."We had Scorsese and Leo Di- Caprio here when Gangs of New York came out," an insider tells Star about Man Ray's A-list clientele. "Quentin Tarantino had his premiere party here for Kill Bill."When at Man Ray, Johnny and Vanessa are commonly found draped around one of the two circular lounge tables that are topped with three stone Buddha heads. The menu includes one of Vanessa's faves, Chateaubriand steak with shitake mushrooms and wasabi sauce for $22.50, and Johnny's $18 Cuisse de Volaille en Brochette Laquee aux Epices et Figues (that's roasted chicken thighs in sweet dumplings, glazed with spices and figs).After dinner, the couple will sometimes slip to nearby nightspots like the Buddha Bar, which is just down the road from Man Ray, about a mile away on the Rue d'Anglais.WHERE THEY SHOPA few steps past the Buddha Bar is the Rue du Faubourg St. Honore, the tony street where the palace of the French president and the city's most exclusive shops lie. Vanessa is a fan of the Chanel store, which is not surprising, seeing that she modeled in a series of Chanel ads in the '90s.But big-name labels don't seem to be what keep this couple and their two children happiest."It's wonderful to get back to France and be living in a tiny village with nothing around," Depp said after moving abroad. "There is still the possibility to live the simple life. You can go to the market, walk about, buy fruits and vegetables -- the things they did 100 and 200 years ago."-- J.P. Shore

The Dapper Buccaneer Spills Secrets on Wonka, Keith and--Yes!--Porn</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>by Glenn Whipp | March 10, 2004</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>EOnline.com</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p> Okay, so Johnny Depp didn't get the Oscar. He never expected to win the damn thing anyway. When interviewed two days before the ceremony, he still hadn't quite recovered from the shock of being nominated for playing a pirate--one modeled after a degenerate rock star and a cartoon skunk, no less.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now, though, he's channeling a Beach Boy in Secret Window, a thriller about a successful writer whom a psychotic hillbilly accuses of plagiarism. For Depp, it's another left turn in a career of interesting choices. Next up, he plays Willy Wonka in Tim Burton's adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here, the 40-year-old dishes on his inspirations, favorite things about France and a certain, er, homage to one of his films.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: You always model your characters on famous people. Pirates of the Caribbean 's Captain Jack Sparrow was a mix of Keith Richards and Pepe Le Pew. Ed Wood: Charlie McCarthy and Ronald Reagan. Who inspired the layabout writer you play in Secret Window?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: Brian Wilson. I remember hearing those famous stories, or maybe myths, about him in this very reclusive period where he didn't leave his house and had sand brought in to cover his living-room floor. Then he dropped the baby grand on top of that and wrote these great beach classics. That was the level of reclusiveness I was looking for.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Did you ever plagiarize in school?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: Never papers. You know what I used to do? It's horrible. When I was a little kid, and I guess all kids do it, I copied other people's test answers. It was a question of survival. You do what you've got to do. At least, that's what it felt like to me. I couldn't take another failing grade.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Isn't it irresponsible to portray pirates as likable?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: Well, how do we know they weren't? [Laughs.] Irresponsible? Hmmm...maybe. It might very well be. But who wouldn't want to take to the high seas and wave a sword? What a ball that would be. That's why I'd love to play [Jack Sparrow] again. It'd be purely for selfish reasons; he's such a fun guy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Did Keith Richards ever ask for royalties off your Pirates performance?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: I ran into him in New York a couple of months after Pirates was released. He was great about it. We've known each other for a long time...he is a pirate. Apparently, he's even on the DVD. That's really sweet of him. And how cool is it that Keith Richards is on a Disney DVD? That's a coup in itself.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src='http://cache.eonline.com/Celebs/Qa/Depp04/Images/4.pirates.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Where's the best Mexican food in France?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: You know what? It's at my house. Yeah. My girl's a good cook; she can make burritos, tacos, whatever you want. Otherwise, you can't find good Mexican food in France. No Mexican food and no doughnuts in Paris. Not that I'm a big doughnut fan. Anyway, there's other stuff there that's just as bad for you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src='http://cache.eonline.com/Celebs/Qa/Depp04/Images/5.mexico.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Now that everybody--audiences, critics--likes you, do you like everybody?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: I've always liked everybody. [Laughs.] I'm not sure everybody likes me. Everybody thinks that I don't live in the United States anymore, that I live in France, which is not true. I just happen to have a home in France, as well, because my kids are half French. And that interview where suddenly I'm anti-American? It was untrue. It blew over quick, but it was an ugly moment. You don't want people believing that stuff. If I had said it, I'd take full responsibility. But it wasn't what I meant.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src='http://cache.eonline.com/Celebs/Qa/Depp04/Images/6.secret.wind&#111;w.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: What's tastier, Mr. Wonka: Scrumdidilyumptious Bars or Everlasting Gobstoppers?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: Scrumdidilyumptious Bars. But there's one even better, the Willy Wonka Scrunch Bar. They don't make it anymore. It was just unbelievable. If I have anything to do with it, the Scrunch Bar will be coming back--with my mug on it. Why not?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Okay, we're talking two days before the Oscars, but this interview won't run until after the ceremony. Um...anybody else you wanna thank?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: [Laughs.] God. Being nominated was such a surprise, such a shock . Nothing like that had ever happened to me before. Being nominated is plenty, actually. I'd just thank the people out there who have been with my up-and-down, weird-road, strange career and supported me and stuck with me all these years. I mean, they're my boss. That's what keeps me working.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Quick--name your favorite painting in the Louvre.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: Does it have to be the Louvre? Oh...there's too many. The painting I'm unbelievably fascinated with at the moment is Picasso's Guernica. I think it's in Madrid. In the Louvre...well, of course, the Mona Lisa . You look at it and go,"Yes. It's great, especially for its time." But when you read about it, the thing really starts to take shape and come alive. It still fascinates me.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src='http://cache.eonline.com/Celebs/Qa/Depp04/Images/9.secret.wind&#111;w.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Q: Did you ever seen the porn flick Edward Penishands?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A: I certainly did. I absolutely did. And there was a sequel as well--Edward Penishands 2 . I think it was either Tim [burton] or John Waters who sent it to me. It might have been both. Tim and I were both quite proud they decided to do that. It was low budget and cheesy, but it was hilarious to watch. Those hands...they served him well.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>

<em>I saw him on The Actor's Studio, he sure does seem sooooo nice.

I have always thought Johnny Depp a very good actor. That said I think he needs some Crest White Strips.. his cigarettes are staining his teeth, and that is a major turn off to me.. also I never realized how tiny the guy is. If he doesn't like America then like Gwenyth Paltrow and Madonna .. I say "goodbye see ya in the movies" unless you trash your home land and then I say "goodbye I'll never see another flick you make"
