I adore Johhny Depp! And anyone who knows me also knows that I am a hugs Beatles fan. That level of musical talent is something that you just don't see a lot of.

Now, back to Johnny Depp! If you didn't already know, Johnny was  born right here in the Tri-State - Owensboro, Kentucky to be exact. Something you may not know is that he wanted to be a musician so badly that he dropped out of school when he was 15. His highly successful acting career got started in 1984 when he appeared in A Nightmare On Elm Street, but it didn't really take off until he took a role in 21 Jump Street in '87. Some other films you've likely seen him in:  Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006), Alice in Wonderland (2010), Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011),  & most recently, The Rum Diary (2011) based off of the book by Hunter S. Thompson.

 

Again, I'm a fan! There is something really charming and handsome about Johnny Depp. Take a look at this video from Rolling Stone where he is using American Sign Language to convey the message of this Paul McCartney song called My Valentine.
