Johnny Depp is making waves at the Cannes Film Festival, but not for his latest movie.
The 59-year-old actor's teeth have become the talk of social media, overshadowing the premiere of his film, Jeanne Du Barry, during the Opening Ceremony on May 16th.
After winning a defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard in 2022, Depp has maintained a low profile, enjoying a quiet life on his 850-acre estate in Somerset, England.
However, he couldn't resist attending the Cannes Film Festival to celebrate his new film, where he portrays King Louis XV.
Little did he know that fans would react strongly to his appearance.
Depp's looks have been a topic of discussion for quite some time, with fans even comparing him to Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne when he was spotted signing autographs in New York last October.
Once again, his appearance has caused concern among fans and critics alike, with one fan expressing their disgust on social media.
The reactions have been quite harsh.
One Twitter user commented, “Johnny Depp's teeth are literally decaying,” alongside two pictures of the actor on the red carpet, including a close-up of his teeth.
Another person asked, “Why do I have to see close-up pics of Johnny Depp's teeth against my will?”
while someone else remarked, “Johnny Depp just looks like someone grabbed his teeth and painted them black.”
The comments kept pouring in, with another user saying, “Seeing that pic of Johnny Depp's teeth on my timeline just ruined my mood.
That's enough Twitter for me.”
Some even made humorous remarks, stating, “Well, at least he's committed to staying in character for his next pirate movie.”
Others speculated about the cause of his dental condition, attributing it to his lifelong tobacco smoking habit.
Despite the teeth controversy, Depp's French biographical drama received a warm reception at Cannes.
Reports indicate that he received a standing ovation lasting seven minutes after the premiere.
Variety even reported that he held back tears during the applause.
Fans of the actor also made their voices heard in the comments sections of social media posts about his teeth.
Many defended him and expressed their support.
One fan insisted, “Jeez, negative trolling needs to stop.
Give the guy a break after all he's been through.”
Another added, “Still love Johnny Depp,” accompanied by a praising emoji.
A different comment read, “People need to admire him for who he is.
He's a great man, great father, and an amazing actor!
Let's not forget, he's also a victim of physical abuse trying to live his life.”
Johnny Depp may have caused a stir with his teeth, but it seems that his talent and resilience continue to earn him the admiration of many fans.
