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.

St. Paddy's Day burglary suspect arrested after trying to swim away
A burglary suspect was arrested on St. Patrick's Day after trying to swim away from Kent police in near-freezing Lake Meridian. According to Kent PD, the man was first spotted by 'observant homeowners' breaking into a garage, filling up a shopping cart with $1,200 worth of tools and other items, and heading out down the street. Police arrived to find the shopping cart abandoned. As they interviewed the garage-theft victim, a call came in from a neighbor, who said that a man was actively trying to steal his boat. 'The vessel was tied up to their private dock with those fancy nautical knots,' detailed the report from Kent police, 'We later pieced together that the suspect, a 31-year-old Kent man, had dropped the cart presumably when he noticed many Officers and neighbors in the area, and King County SO Guardian hovering above. Attempting his best Jack Sparrow moment, he decided to try and steal a non-motorized boat, but the rope knots confounded him. As he tried to release the 2nd knot from the cleats, the homeowners came out to yell at him and take photos.' Kent police say the man then threw himself into the 40-degree lake and swam away. He got out on another dock, and police followed the 911 calls from neighbors as he jumped over fences and tried to get away. Finally, he was spotted on the street, 'very wet, very cold, and missing his shirt.' He was arrested and booked for second-degree burglary and attempted theft.

Sharon Osbourne Regrets Stopping Ozzy From Auditioning for ‘Pirates of the Caribbean'
Ozzy Osbourne was once invited to audition for a role in Pirates of the Caribbean—but the opportunity was shut down by his longtime manager and wife, Sharon Osbourne. During a recent appearance on Billy Corgan's The Magnificent Others podcast, Sharon revealed what she considers the 'biggest mistake' she ever made on the legendary Black Sabbath frontman's behalf. 'He got offered to go and read for Pirates of the Caribbean, and I've never said this to anyone,' she admitted to the Smashing Pumpkins frontman. 'And I said no. Now wouldn't he have been perfect?' More from Billboard The Wombats Recall 'Pretty Freaky' Incident in Rio de Janeiro Green Day Are Seeking 'Punks, Emo, Hardcore & Alt People' for New Film Blink-182's Mark Hoppus Announces Tour for New Memoir, 'Fahrenheit-182' Corgan immediately agreed, responding, 'He would have been perfect! Maybe it's not too late, but God bless.' While it remains unclear which character Ozzy was being considered for, the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise has a history of casting rock legends. The Rolling Stones' Keith Richards famously played Captain Teague, the father of Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow, in At World's End (2007) and On Stranger Tides (2011). Paul McCartney also made an appearance in Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017) as Jack Sparrow's uncle, Uncle Jack. Given Ozzy's unmistakable persona and theatrical stage presence, it's easy to imagine him fitting right into the swashbuckling world of the blockbuster franchise. Beyond his near brush with Hollywood, Ozzy has remained active in music despite ongoing health struggles. In recent years, he released Patient Number 9 (2022), which earned a Grammy for Best Rock Album, and announced his retirement from touring due to health concerns. Meanwhile, Black Sabbath's final reunion show is set to take place on July 5 in Birmingham, featuring appearances from Guns N' Roses, Tool, and even actor Jason Momoa. While Ozzy never got his shot at the high seas, his legacy as the Prince of Darkness remains untouchable—onstage and, perhaps, in an alternate timeline, on the big screen.
