Johnny Depp thanks Elton John for helping him sober up

Johnny Depp Amber Heard trial: Johnny Depp had described his friendship with Elton John, crediting him for helping him to sober up in 2013 and recover from the 'monster' of alcoholism. Johnny Depp said in 2012, he texted Sir Elton thanking him for his help. 'If it weren't for you, I would've been swallowed up by the monster if it weren't for you. That is a simple fact.' He told the court: 'Elton was a dear friend who had been sober for 40 years […] We had had discussion, and he wanted me to get clean, sober…'

That was JD popping off to the Cross attorney. That just gets JD triggered up even more. The more he pops off, the more they take advantage of that...in a Court Trial. He is not the defendant. He can answer simply, without feeling the need to defend himself. His attorneys will address all of that when their time comes. Amber's ex assistant answered like one should. JD just seems like he playing the victim way too much. Makes him look weak, to the Defense attorney. By which he will jump all over his weakness. We all know what is and who is to blame for this. By him saying very little will make them look like idiots... Thats how the game is played, in this environment. Just knowing Amber did that silly Op Ed to the Washington Post, is enough to know what a dolt she is. Her attorney is not JD's friend. They are tricky

Iggy Pop always thanks Bowie, after they cleaned up in Berlin together. And Bowie seems to have tried to help out Lou Reed, too, but got a knuckle sandwich for his efforts. Ptetty much a model dude, anyway, in that and lots of other ways, too

As a drug addict who also was in abusive relationship’s, I’m so glad to say I’m illegal drug free and though it’s not great 😌 that I am afraid of people, I have managed to get away from those terrible people. To this day I have multiple issues and become a social recluse, it is better then being abused mentally and physically over and over again. Much love 💕 to Johnny Depp, stay strong. Your a great man and you have great friends.

There is an interview with Johnny Depp and Oprah Winfrey when he was 20 years old, the interview he speaks exactly the way he speaks as he’s on the stand right now. For those of the people that think he is acting or putting on some show check out the Oprah Winfrey interview from 30 years ago. He’s always been an articulate thoughtful speaker. He’s also hilarious

hadn't realized that, but you're right. He had to know this trial would be brutal to him. But he knew that going through this process would be necessary to his healing and growth. I suspect that not many could have gone through what he has, and yet faced this. Even fewer could have maintained the composure and self-control that he has displayed throughout this ordeal. His courage is remarkable. If I was a producer or director, I'd be thinking 'hey, this guy can endure almost anything! If I have a role that I know will be very demanding, he certainly could handle it.'
