After six long weeks facing a trial for defamation against his ex-wife Amber Heard and waiting for the jury’s final verdict, Johnny Depp wanted to take a break from all the controversy generated by the lawsuit and surprised us by appearing at a concert with British musician Jeff Beck.
On May 29, social networks were filled with videos and photographs showing the actor with a guitar in hand, rocking out during a special performance at the concert of Jeff Beck, one of his best friends, in a presentation that took place in Sheffield, England.
The unexpected performance of the interpreter of Jack Sparrow took everyone present by surprise, who, seeing him on stage, did not contain their emotion and began to praise and applaud him for seeing him making music.
During his speech at the concert, Depp played three spectacular covers which are a classic of music. The first was the version of insulation by John Lennon, then followed up with What’s Going On by Marvin Gaye and later with Little Wing by Jimi Hendrix. To close their participation with a flourish, they also played the unreleased song by Johnny Depp entitled This Is a Song for Ms. Hedy Lamarr.
Although his fame and worldwide recognition is due to his acting career, Depp was originally a guitarist and was part of the Rock City Angels band in 1986 and the Hollywood Vampires group in 2005. Without forgetting that the actor collaborated on songs by groups like Oasis, Aerosmith and with his ex Vanessa Paradis.
Although not yet confirmed, the actor is expected to take place at the concerts that Jeff Beck has planned for this May 30 and 31 at the Royal Albert Hall in London. There are even those who claim that during the concert in England, the musician announced that his next album will be released in July, so there was no lack of speculation that he would collaborate with Johnny Depp.
Johnny Depp’s surprising appearance on stage in Sheffield soon became a trend on Twitter, where millions of fans expressed how happy it makes them to see the most beloved pirate of all time resume his life and do one of the things What do you love most in life? Here are some of the most popular reactions.
