Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp has been acting for almost 40 years and has portrayed many characters on the screen, but among the long list of films he has been in, most know him as Jack Sparrow from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise. Depp was born in Owensboro, Kentucky on June 9, 1963, to parents John and Betty Sue. He moved to Florida and spent a lot of his childhood there. Before starring in movies, primarily as the dark and chilling character, young Depp was in a band called "the Kids." His music career extended later in his career as well, as he was in another band called the "Hollywood Vampires." Depp's past relationships were complicated to say the least, but his first known relationship was with Lori Anne Allison, a makeup artist. The couple moved to Los Angeles, where he got connected with Nicholas Cage, and his decades-long acting career began. His movie debut was in "A Nightmare on Elm Street" in 1984. Although he has been in a lot of popular movies like "Sleepy Hollow," "Alice in Wonderland," and "Sweeney Todd," he is most known for the character that he played for over 10 years, Captain Jack Sparrow. Johnny Depp played Jack Sparrow in five "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies from 2003 to 2017. His "Pirates" costars include Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley. Depp has a net worth of $100 million (per Celebrity Net Worth), a long list of movies behind him and a long list of celebrity girlfriends, wives and proposals. After his divorce from Lori Anne Allison, he had relationships with many big Hollywood names, including Sherilyn Fenn, Jennifer Gray, Winona Ryder, Ellen Barkin and Kate Moss. After Moss, he had a 14-year relationship with with Vanessa Paradis. The former couple share two children together, a daughter, Lily-Rose Depp, and a son Jack Depp. In 2015, Depp and Amber Heard got married, but divorced in 2016. Heard wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post, implying that she was abused by Depp in 2018, and the two have been suing back and fourth since. The two took part in a very public defamation lawsuit in March and April 2022.

Amber Heard
Amber Heard has acted in many television shows and movies including 'Aquaman,' and 'Criminal Minds.' Heard also had a lot of press around her very public relationship with now ex-husband, Johnny Depp. She was born on April 22, 1986, in Austin, Texas to parents Paige and David Heard. Heard, whose net worth is now $-6 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth losing the defamation trial to Depp, got her film debut in the movie, 'Friday Night Lights' in 2004. After that movie, she went on to work in many other films like 'North Country,' 'All the Boys Love Mandy Lane,' 'Pineapple Express' and 'Zombieland.' She also had various television appearances in shows like 'The O.C,' 'Criminal Minds,' 'Californication' and 'Hidden Palms.' Some other films Heard was in during the earlier stages of her career were 'The Stepfather,' 'The Ward,' 'Drive Angry,' 'Syrup,' and '3 Days to Kill.' In 2011, Heard played Chenault in 'The Rum Diary.' She and Depp met during the filming of the movie. They were both in relationships at the time, but eventually started dating in 2012. The pair got married in 2015, but got divorced two years later. They have been in a huge legal battle since Heard wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post, implying that she was abused by Depp. After a six week trial in Fairfax, Virginia that millions tuned in to watch, the jury found that Heard had defamed Depp and awarded the actor $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive, which were reduced to $350,000 due to Virginia's law. Heard was awarded $2 million in compensatory damages due to the statements made by Depp's attorney Adam Waldman. Heard owes $10.35 million to Depp, an amount that her lawyers have said she cannot afford to pay. Heard and her team have tried to appeal, but have been unsuccessful in their endeavors. One big role that the actress is known for is playing Mera, in 'Aquaman' with Jason Mamoa. She also plays the character in the 2017 'Justice League' and in 'Zack Snyder's Justice League.' She is in the 'Aquaman' sequel, 'Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom' that is set to come out in 2023, even though her appearance in the "Aquaman" sequel has became controversial after the legal situation with her and Depp. Even though Depp was Heard's most public relationship, she has also been connected with painter and photographer Tasya van Ree in 2008, model Cara Delevingne, Tesla founder and billionaire Elon musk on and off from 2016-2018 and art dealer Vito Schnabel. She does however have a a daughter Oonagh Paige Heard, who was born via surrogate April 8, 2021.

Morgan Wallen Matches Justin Bieber And Jay-Z
Morgan Wallen scores 29 new Hot 100 hits thanks to his I'm the Problem album, tying Jay-Z and Justin ... More Bieber at 105 total entries in the process. Morgan Wallen performs the song "'98 Braves" at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards at Truist Park in Atlanta, Georgia. The show airs on November 19, 2023 on (Photo by Christopher Polk/Penske Media via Getty Images) Morgan Wallen is the king of the Hot 100 this week — and not just because he sits at No. 1. The superstar and Tate McRae debut their collaboration "What I Want" in first place, and the country superstar sends dozens of tracks from his latest album, I'm the Problem, to the tally. As a deluge of cuts from I'm the Problem reach the Hot 100, Wallen adds significantly to his career total of placements, passing an important milestone and tying with two of the most successful musicians of the past several decades. All 29 new appearances on the Hot 100 are taken from I'm the Problem. As those two dozen-plus tracks arrive, the singer-songwriter increases his career total to 105 placements on the roster, according to Billboard. With exactly 105 Hot 100 wins to his credit, Wallen is now tied with Justin Bieber and Jay-Z, who have also accrued just as many. Both of those artists had quite the head start and spent well over a decade accruing smashes before Wallen's career really took off. Neither has been particularly focused on music lately, so their sums haven't increased significantly in recent years. Thanks to I'm the Problem, Wallen has now snagged four No. 1 hits. Two of them — "Love Somebody" and the brand new "What I Want" with McRae — opened in first place. He also reached the summit with his solo hit "Last Night" taken from his previous album One Thing at a Time, and "I Had Some Help," his collaboration with Post Malone. In total, Wallen has landed 17 top 10 smashes, including nine from his latest full-length. The record for the most Hot 100 hits is still owned by Drake, and it may always be. He is up to 358 placements on the tally, nearly 100 more than the runner-up, Taylor Swift, who claims 264. Also included in this exclusive club, which now features 21 artists, are names like Future, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, The Weeknd, and Eminem.
