Celebrity Status – Johnny, Jada, Jacob And The Queen
For Thursday, June 2nd:
Johnny Depp won his defamation trial against Amber Heard. His was awarded damages of $10.35 million, and the jury also awarded $2 million in damages to Heard in her counterclaim, because they found she was defamed when Depp’s lawyer called her abuse allegations “a hoax.” She said in a statement afterward, “I’m heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband.” She plans to appeal.
Jada Pinkett-Smith addressed the Oscars slap on her Red Table Talk series, saying “my deepest hope is that these two intelligent, capable men have an opportunity to heal, talk this out and reconcile.” The episode dealt with her condition of alopecia.
