Johnny Depp Fans Are ‘Disgusted’ With His ‘Rotting’ Teeth At The Cannes

Not only is Johnny Depp’s film Jeanne Du Barry, which debuted during the Opening Ceremony on Tuesday, May 16th, garnering attention while he is at the Cannes Film Festival. Regretfully, the 59-year-old former Pirates of the Caribbean star’s appearance seems to garner more attention on social media than his film, with his teeth in particular generating a lot of controversy.

After winning his defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard in 2022, the Sweeney Todd actor has reportedly been living a quiet existence at his 850-acre home in Somerset rather than in the United States. But in honor of his, he couldn’t help but make a brief detour in France for the Cannes Film Festival.He plays King Louis XV in the new film, though we doubt he will be too happy to hear what the audience has to say about his performance.

Over the past year or so, Depp’s appearance has been a major talking point. Some fans have even claimed that when he was sighted collecting autographs in New York back in October, he looked more like Black Sabbath guitarist Ozzy Osbourne than Depp. Once more, both his supporters and detractors have expressed concern over his appearance; one even went so far as to post on social media that they were “disgusted” by it. They really didn’t hold back, wow!

Fans Comment On Johnny Depp’s ‘Rotting Teeth’ On Social Media

“It’s like someone grabbed his teeth and painted them black,” a harsh critic wrote on Twitter in response to a post that included two close-up photos of the actor on the red carpet. “Why do I have to see close-up pics of Johnny Depp’s teeth against my will?” another fan queried. “Johnny Depp’s teeth are literally ROTTING,” another fan wrote on Twitter.

“It just made me feel bad to see that picture of Johnny Depp’s teeth on my timeline.” I think I’ve had enough of Twitter for now. Nevertheless, someone else made a joke, saying, “Well, at least he’s committed to staying in character for his next pirate movie.” One person said, “Dude has been a tobacco smoker for his entire adult life so not surprising.” Others thought they knew what was causing the condition of his teeth. “This should be considered bacterial biological warfare,” one person said.

Putting aside his “teeth,” Depp’s French biographical drama garnered an overwhelmingly positive response; he even reportedly earned a seven-minute standing ovation during the premiere. He suppressed his tears amid the applause, according to Variety.

Additionally, admirers of the Edward Scissorhands actor expressed their opinions in the social media comments sections on posts regarding his teeth. A large number of them left nice remarks on an Instagram photo from OK! Magazine on May 18. One fan remarked, “Jeez, negative negative trolling. Give the guy a break after all he’s been through.” Another added, “Still love Johnny Depp,” and then included an emoji of a hand complimenting the actor. “Amazingly gifted performer! Simply said, people should mind their own business. One more person said, “Can people just admire him?”for the person he is…He’s a fantastic performer, a wonderful man, and a great father! Not to mention a man attempting to live his life after being physically abused!”
