A Worthy Cover

johnny-depp-vanity-fair.jpgThe folks over at Vanity Fair finally got their head's back on straight! A real star, Johnny Depp, is gracing the stalwart magazine's cover this coming July. That's a vast improvement over June's embarrassing Jessica Simpson feature! Johnny spills details on his private island, how he copes with stress and the departed pals he dearly misses. Here's a snippet from the coveted interview

["I don't think I'd ever seen any place so pure and beautiful. You can feel your pulse rate drop about 20 beats. It's instant freedom." Depp named one of the six beaches on his island Gonzo, for Hunter S. Thompson (others are named Paradis, Lily Rose, Jack, and Brando, after his partner, kids, and other great mentor). Gonzo Beach features glass tables with Thompson's face etched in the center. Depp's hobbies include reading, playing guitar, and painting. "What I love to do is paint people's faces, y'know, their eyes," he says. "Because you want to find that emotion, see what's going on behind their eyes."]

I've got a lot of emotion behind my eyes for Depp and he's welcome to check them out anytime! Speaking of eyes and Winona Ryder (see post below) - have you ever looked at the actress during her downward spiral and seen a hint of crazy? I think we've got to give her a small break, considering that she loved and lost Depp in her early twenties. That would be enough to drive any woman nuts! Wino forever...
