Retraction: Johnny Depp Did NOT Start Dating Amber Heard While He Was Still With Vanessa Paradis

On February 10, The Hollywood Gossip published an article claiming that there was reason to believe that Johnny Depp may have become romantically involved with his wife, Amber Heard, while he was still involved with longtime partner Vanessa Paradis. There is no factual basis to this claim. We regret the error, and we would like to issue our sincerest apologies to Mr. Depp, Ms. Heard, and Ms. Paradis. The speculation in the article was based on comments that Mr. Depp made in a February 5 interview with People magazine in which he described meeting Ms. Heard on the set of the 2011 Hunter S. Thompson adaptation, The Rum Diary . We misinterpreted his comments and arrived at the inaccurate conclusion that he and Heard began dating before he had separated from Paradis. In truth, Depp has stated that his romantic relationship with Heard began not on set, but rather during the film’s press tour, at which time, he had already separated from Paradis. We also commented that Depp may want to steer clear of future projects co-starring young blonde women, and we now realize that the remark was in poor taste. In summation, there is no reason to believe Mr. Depp is guilty of any infidelity in his current or past relationships, and we apologize for stating otherwise.

Stacy Martin on Nudity: “You Have to Honour What’s Written”

While a lot of actresses have been taking a hardline stance against nudity lately, Stacy Martin made some statements at the Venice Film Festival that lead us to believe that she’ll be going nude on film for a long time to come. The Nymphomaniac star was in Venice to promote two new films, and of course, the talk soon turned to nudity since she did make her screen and nude debuts in the same film. Martin said, essentially that while she’s not going to go around seeking out roles that require her to be nude, if the right role does come along, she’s game! Despite the copious sex scenes (in Nymphomaniac ), it didn’t faze her; nudity, she says, is something she’ll do “for the right reasons” if it came up again. “I don’t believe in gratuitous nudity. Or sexuality in a way that is discriminating to women, or even men!” she adds. “My body is my body, and if it’s part of the story and it’s justified… you have to honour what’s written. But never do it if it’s pointless – and a lot of it is – so you have to be very careful.” Aspiring writers out there take note… If you want Stacy Martin to get nude in your film, just make sure it’s an integral part of the plot.
