Johnny Depp has taken to TikTok to appreciate fans for their loyalty during his defamation trial against Amber Heard.
On Tuesday, the singer shared a video compilation on the site, where he already has 5.1 million followers, showing him entering the courthouse to swarms of admirers, as well as footage of him later playing guitar on stage with his buddy’s band.
@johnnydepp To all of my most treasured, loyal and unwavering supporters. We’ve been everywhere together, we have seen everything together. We have walked the same road together. We did the right thing together, all because you cared. And now, we will all move forward together. You are, as always, my employers and once again I am whittled down to no way to say thank you, other than just by saying thank you. So, thank you. My love & respect, JD

‘To all of my most beloved, devoted, and unshakable followers,’ he captioned the 30-second video. ‘We’ve been everywhere and seen everything together. We have travelled the same path. We did the correct thing as a group because you cared. And now we shall all proceed together. You are, as always, my employers, and once again, there is no way to say thank you other than to say thank you. So, once again, thank you. With love and respect, JD.’
In the first few minutes of being online, the video was seen 200,000 times.
The experiment lasted many months, and TikTok fans enjoyed every minute of it. Johnny was unquestionably the favourite, topping hashtags and trends ahead of his ex-wife.
On Tuesday, people embraced him with enthusiastic arms to the app.
‘JOHNNY’S FIRST TIKTOK!’ exclaimed someone in the comments section.
‘We’re always there for you, Johnny!’ exclaimed another.

She was the trial’s breakthrough celebrity, the subject of several memes and TikTok videos.
‘Vasquez was a major part of the litigation team that obtained a jury verdict on June 1, 2022 for actor Johnny Depp in his defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard,’ the company stated in a release.
The CEO of the company expressed that historically, they have held this statement until the conclusion of our fiscal year, However, Camille’s success in the Johnny Depp trial demonstrated to the world that she was ready to take this next step right now. They are really proud of her and thrilled to see what she will achieve as their newest partner.
Depp sued Heard for defamation over an op-ed she published about surviving domestic abuse.
The jury determined that she defamed him by erroneously implying that he had assaulted her.
After deductions, Heard was ordered to pay Depp $8 million. She has now said that she cannot afford it.
The ruling, according to Heard, is a loss for victims of domestic abuse.
She said it simply demonstrated Johnny Depp’s dominance and popularity, and that he abused her during their short marriage.
