Depp’s Quest for Privacy
Despite his career in the limelight, Cooper highlighted Depp’s preference to stay away from the media frenzy surrounding his personal life. “Johnny is a good guitarist and in a way, he would have been happiest doing that, playing side of stage in a band and not having to deal with the level of attention he gets,” Cooper explained. He further revealed that Depp hasn’t watched any of his own movies.
