12 h 44 min, 25 juin 2009 ans - THE TELEGRAPH Johnny Depp interview for Public Enemies

Description:

By John Hiscock

The squeals and screams start even before the guest of honour begins to descend the stairs to the club floor where the partygoers have been awaiting his arrival for an hour.

By the time he reaches the bottom step the crowd has swelled to a heaving mass, everyone trying to get near him, touch him, take his picture and plead for autographs.

Johnny Depp, courteous and obliging, poses for photographs and graciously attempts to answer the questions and comments thrown at him before beating a retreat behind a phalanx of security guards who clear the way for him.

So is this is what it’s like to be Johnny Depp: unable to venture out in public without instantly drawing a near-fanatical crowd?

“It was really weird, wasn’t it?” he mused on the following day, recalling the events of the evening before. “Oh man, you don’t ever get used to that kind of thing. You just don’t. That’s why I hardly ever leave my house. I don’t go anywhere. I understand what it’s about and I appreciate it on a very profound level but there’s only so much of that sort of thing a human being can deal with.” We are talking in a suite at Chicago’s Peninsula Hotel the morning after the premiere and party for his latest film Public Enemies. Depp, who has been known to be chronically late for interviews---sometimes hours and even days---was two hours late for our appointment. He arrived, smiling broadly, looking dapper and thirties-style, wearing a grey vintage trilby hat, grey Armani waistcoat and baggy dark blue slacks.
