And the blood of the proud flows in John Depp's veins Cherokee, along with Irish and German blood. Probably, this unique international mixture was one of the reasons for Johnny Depp’s extravagant appearance and indescribable charm in his youth.

Dark brown eyes, like large cheekbones carved with a chisel, dark skin, harmonious physique plus masculine charm - this is Johnny Depp in his youth. Is it any wonder that from the age of 13 he was actively courting girls, and at 16 he left school, became interested in music and performed in nightclubs in Florida as part of the group The Kid.

He could have become a brilliant musician, but at the age of 20 he marries makeup artist Lori AnnAllison who introduces her husband to Nicholas Cage. With his light hand, Johnny Depp's stellar career began.

French Vanessa Paradis and Johnny Depp in their youth they gave the impression of being an inseparable couple. A beautiful daughter and son, material security, fame... But this novel suffered the same fate as the previous ones.

Last marriage with AmberHurd also ended in a scandalous divorce in 2017.


What does Johnny Depp look like now?

Johnny Depp was eccentric and shocking in his youth (photos confirm this), and he remains so now. He himself does not hide his difference from others. Eternal unshavenness, an original manicure and shaggy hair are the everyday image of Johnny Depp.

He disdains fashionable clothes, loves baggy trousers and jackets, old hats, scarves, and frilly bracelets.

Forced to wear glasses due to vision problems, Johnny approaches this issue with creativity, choosing only unusual models.

It seems that this person is indifferent to appearance, but years pass, and his facial features are still perfectly proportional.

The actor's youthful appearance attracts the attention not only of journalists, but also of plastic surgeons, who claim that his unfading beauty is the work of their colleagues and the result of a series of operations that were carried out at different times. They confirm their guesses with before and after photos, where Johnny looks slightly swollen.

There is an opinion that even before his first film role, Johnny was recommended to slightly correct the shape of his nose using rhinoplasty. Even then, this method made it possible to eliminate almost any deformation. But whether Johnny followed the recommendations is unknown.

Experts say that a recent eyebrow and forehead lift helped Johnny Depp return his beautiful eye shape, remove drooping eyelids and wrinkles in the upper half of his face.

Despite the radical nature of the method, the scars from such an operation are not visible, since the incision is made significantly above the area of ​​hair growth. The operation is complex, but American surgeons, judging by the results, successfully completed it.

But it’s not only thanks to medicine that Johnny Depp is as attractive now as he was in his youth. Having left all his bad habits in the past, he carefully monitors his diet and regularly visits fitness clubs.

It's hard to believe that Johnny Depp has already crossed the half-century mark and remains one of the most beautiful people on the planet. And it doesn’t matter whether plastic surgery or good genetics helped him.

The public's favorite "Jack Sparrow" (Johnny Depp) not only now, but also in his youth looked beautiful and sexy... and sometimes even very cute - see for yourself!

Johnny Depp is not only a brilliant actor who has played in many films (more than 55 roles), but also a very attractive man. Why did he look attractive both in his youth and now...

Johnny has been repeatedly voted the sexiest man in many versions of polls and voting. It's strange that Johnny Depp almost never plays the role of heroic lovers... But this is due to the actor's personal choice, because... Johnny likes to play interesting roles, even in a low-budget film.

I remember him when he was young, when he acted in what seems to me now to be stupid films like Praxa and Edward Scissorhands. His characters were so artistic that you wanted to watch the films again and again. The same goes for his real-life hero, the pirate Jack Sparrow. He played this role so brilliantly that many people (including me) went to the last part just for him... and they will go to the next one for the same reasons. It's a pity that he was nominated for an Oscar for this role, but did not receive it:((

And now I want to show you a photo of young Johnny Depp.

Look what a cutie:

And here are other photos of the young actor:


and here he is so serious...

The highest paid actor in Hollywood according to the Guinness Book of Records, winner of the Golden Globe Award and three Oscar nominations, John Christopher Depp II was born on June 9, 1963 in Owensboro, USA. Height is 175 centimeters.

The famous actor is named after his father. He grew up with two sisters and a brother, but their family could not be called happy and prosperous. At the age of 12, Johnny began drinking and smoking; 3 years after his parents' divorce, he became addicted to drugs, for which he was expelled from school.


The only joy for the guy during this period was music; he independently learned to play the guitar and began performing in nightclubs with the group “Kids”.


At the age of 20, Depp got married for the first time. His chosen one was make-up artist Laurie Ann Ellison. And although the marriage lasted only 2 years, thanks to his wife, the future actor met Nicolas Cage and auditioned for the film “A Nightmare on Elm Street.”


After such a memorable debut, handsome Johnny Depp earned the status of an idol for teenage girls.


The actor's dramatic talent was recognized after he met director Tim Burton. Their first film together, Edward Scissorhands, brought Johnny Depp a Golden Globe nomination and widespread admiration.

The subsequent works of this brilliant tandem (“Sleepy Hollow”, “Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street”, “Alice in Wonderland” and others) also earned a huge number of awards.


As Johnny grew in popularity, he changed lovers more and more often; he had serious relationships with Jennifer Gray, Winona Ryder, Kate Moss and Sherilyn Fenn.


In 1998, the actor settled down and tied the knot in a civil marriage with an elegant Frenchwoman, singer and actress Vanessa Paradis. Over 14 years of marriage, the couple had a daughter, Lily-Rose, and a son, John Christopher.


During this happy period, Johnny Depp played one of his most favorite roles in life, which brought him an Oscar nomination and many other awards - the role of Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean.


After his divorce from Vanessa Paradis, Depp became engaged to Amber Heard, but their marriage lasted just over a year, ending in a series of scandals and a complicated divorce process.

Today the actor lives alone, he devotes himself entirely to creativity.


If you answer “no,” then we can congratulate you: you just refused to shake the hand of Johnny Depp himself! Yes, yes, this world-famous pirate-madman was never a good boy and differed from his peers in his temper and complex character.

However, this is precisely what allowed him to become what we now know and adore. To say that half of the female audience is in love with Depp and dreams of him in their most secret dreams is to say nothing.

The childhood of the future public favorite can hardly be called fairy-tale. Constant moving, the death of his grandfather, with whom he was very close, and the eternal scandals of his parents, which led to divorce, could not have a positive effect on the psyche of little Johnny.

We moved about 30 times. This is probably why I still travel in my thoughts, I always feel like I’m somewhere else. It seems to me that I’m not quite here and now.” , Depp once admitted in an interview.

Johnny Depp as a child

From an eccentric kid who loved to make all kinds of faces, Depp grew into a difficult teenager.

The only consolation for him during such a difficult period was music. “I vaguely remember adolescence, I locked myself in a room and played the guitar” , - Jack Sparrow later said.

By the way, you will be amazed, but in his youth Johnny played in the rock band The Kids, which, by the way, opened for Talking Heads, Ramones, The Pretenders and Iggy and the Stooges.

When the group broke up, Depp became seriously interested in acting.

After this, the talented actor had several high-profile affairs and scandalous romances, the most popular of which was his relationship with Kate Moss.


Sex, drugs and rock and roll - this was exactly the concept of the novel between the most famous anorexic in Hollywood and the ambitious Depp.


Their shocking quarrels and sometimes crazy actions were the No. 1 topic in press discussions.


Kate on her relationship with Depp:

“After we met, the emptiness that had tormented me for many years disappeared from my soul. He alone was capable of surprising me."


« Kate is always in me. A big part of me misses her and I still don't understand why we're not together." , - Depp confessed.


Depp's longest and strongest union was his marriage to Vanessa Paradis, a French actress and singer.


They gave the world two children - daughter Lily-Rose Melody (b. 1999) and son Jack Christopher (b. 2002). In 2012, the star marriage of Vanessa and Johnny broke up.
