Blind Items Revealed
June 16, 2009
This Academy Award nominated/winner A+ list actor doesn't get much publicity for all of the good he does, and so I thought I would share one of the things about him which he did for no reason other than being a great guy. While shooting a film our actor was introduced to a young girl. The girl had wanted to meet our actor for a very long time. Because she was dying of leukemia, her parents had asked Make-A-Wish to make it happen. For whatever reason they had not. Well, someone on the set heard about this little girl and asked our actor if it would be ok for her to meet him. He said sure, and the girl came. At the time she visited him she had a few weeks to live. When he asked about her medical treatment he was told there really wasn't any money. Our actor paid for all her medical bills and three years later she is still alive and still in touch with our actor.
Johnny Depp

Good people get my money.
Love him!
ReplyDeletemakes me love him that much more!
ReplyDeleteWhich begs the question....is Johnny Depp, in fact, the perfect man??
ReplyDeleteYES!! Way to go Johhny Depp! I've always loved him and he just gets better and better and deserves all the fame and fortune. How refreshing for someone who makes his living in Hollywood.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard anything bad about him. So happy he's such a great guy.
ReplyDeleteAnother reason to love Johnny.
ReplyDeletefabulous.
ReplyDeleteI hope he gets an Academy Award. He deserves it!!!
ReplyDeleteIndeed makes me love and appreciate him even more.
ReplyDeleteand that, folks, is why we love johnny depp.
ReplyDeleteclass act all the way, he is.
and now I have jumped on the I-Love-Johnny-Depp bandwagon.
ReplyDeleteThat was totally awesome.
Oh, and to answer Majik's question: yes, yes he is the perfect man lol
ReplyDeleteWOW
ReplyDeleteJD gets my full support from this point forward!
the man doesn't age, he's beautiful (inside and out), an amazing actor and now this. his gf/wife and children are super lucky. what a great man.
ReplyDeleteThis one makes me all teary eyed *L*
ReplyDeleteAmazing story. I too, am on the JD bandwagon. Guess I will have to see his new movie tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous hunk o man and a wonderful heart. Johnny can definitely leave crumbs in my bed and I would not complain ;)
ReplyDeleteFinally some good news! A lot of people guessed Johnny and we all knew it was true.
ReplyDeleteAccording to some other sites, more than once he has dressed up as Capn. Jack Sparrow and visited children at the hospital where his daughter was treated a while back.
Too cool!
Can't be a cynic on this one, he literally saved her life.
ReplyDeletePERFECT...
ReplyDeletedamn, he almost made me gay with that reveal... don't you all wish you had the money to help a family like that?
ReplyDeleteand just goes to show you can be in the business a looong time and not become a jerk.
ReplyDeleteIt seems the only way to maintain a normal life and be an actor is to live outside Hollywood. Everyone that lives their year round turns into Ego douchebags. Hello James Woods.
ReplyDeleteJohnny was smart to hightail to France.
Thank you so much for revealing this. I've always loved him and this just shows that his gorgeous face matches his beautiful soul.
ReplyDeleteoh, wow. yes indeedy, majik, the perfect man. AND he owns his own island and custom built sailboat.
ReplyDeletethis is a great story! it took him many years to become an overnight sensation, and it looks like he'll never forget it.
God bless him!
that's so good of him. gotta love Johnny.
ReplyDeleteThis story gave me goosebumps. They said she had only a few weeks to live and after his visit she's been hanging in there for three years.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful story and a beautiful man.
I can't wait to see Public Enemies.
I love Johnny.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. My ice-cold heart actually felt that one. Thanks for the reveal ;)
ReplyDeleteOne more reason to LOVE Johnny Depp!
ReplyDeleteI have read that he also sets up tables when he is filming and will sign autographs and take pics with fans. What a truly kind person. There are many celebs that should take note if they ever hope in coming close to having the career he has.
ReplyDeleteMy hero. It doesn't get much better than this, does it?
ReplyDeleteThe rare celebrity who truly deserves his acclaim! <3
ReplyDeletenice guy! but he never won Oscar!
ReplyDeleteEnty ,yours clues were false,he was nominated 3 times bur never won Oscar. Perhaps the next year for Public enemies!
ReplyDeleteneed tissues... snif.
ReplyDeleteHe just has always seemed like a 'good person' since 21 Jump Street.
I have never been a fan of Johnny Depp, but this gives me tremendous respect for him. What a wonderful thing to do.
ReplyDeleteHe is a lovely, lovely, man. AND he needs to stop wearing so much eyeliner, particularly when he is playing a Depression-era gangster like John Dillinger. Very distracting. But that is a story for another day.
ReplyDeletewow, i think i just fell more in lust with him. hot and kind...wrap him up and I will take him to go!
ReplyDeleteJohnny is so amazing. I love that he is an actual caring genuine human being who hasn't let success make him into a monster a la Beyonce and all those other twats. Could this man be any more perfect?
ReplyDeleteAwww!
ReplyDeleteAll these kindnesses (I'm talking about the newer reveals than this one, too) just make me tear up. I wouldn't say it restores my faith in humanity, cause, never happen...;-) But it does make me feel glad for having some good people in the world.
Wow. Just wow.
ReplyDeleteJohnny Depp has never turned my crank, but I love this blind. One of the last genuinely nice people left in the business.
ReplyDeleteLOVE THIS!! Made me shed a tear....good job, Johnny!
ReplyDeleteyes, 10 out of 10. he just got bumped to the top of my List.
ReplyDeleteDamn!! I am not a huge fan .. like Johnny Depp's work and all .. but .. that was about it. Now I have just the highest regard for Johnny Depp. What a great guy!!
ReplyDelete*heart melts*
ReplyDeleteI just want to put him in my back pocket :)
I love this man more and more hearing all the wonderful things he's done for sick kids. Bravo, Mr. Depp! I wasn't really interested in seeing your new movie but damnit, I'll support you!
ReplyDelete*swoon*
ReplyDeleteI wasn't sure there was a way to love him any more!
