Johnny Depp & Vanessa Paradis: I haven't a clue
Apparently the national Enquirer has a font page article that Johny and Vanessa are splitting up. I'm sorry that everyone thinks that I would know, or would tell if I did know. Vanessa is a really beautiful woman and Johnny and I don't sit around talking about pesonal problems or anything at all. And the people who work for him don't like me. We've locked horns over some gonzo matters. again, I wouldn't say if I did know.
But if the family is in trouble, I wish them the best of luck. I'm sure they'll work it out or split up amicably. I've never heard of a couple that doesn't squabble -- at least not if they're made of flesh and blood.
Which makes a good time to answer question #7: Does Johnny Depp still have a room downstairs?
Answer: It's true that Johnny DID live in the basement bedroom of Owl Farm while he was studying to be Raoul Duke in FLLV. I still call it Johnny's room bc of the affection that Hunter had for Johnny. But please understand that Johnny doesn't every stay here. Your letters, screenplays, movie-ideas, gifts, phone calls etc are not passed on to Johnny. They are sent back. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but I'm not a portal to Johnny -- He has an agent in Hollywood. I don't have the number handy, but you can look it up on google.
I even had a wrestling match in the doorway a few summers ago with a very tall man who had a music idea to over with Johnny -- he was convinced that Johnny still still lived here. Thank god I had Athena that day. The intruder ended up with a gushing hole in his thigh from a warning bite. Other intruders might look down the barrel of 12 gauge shotgun.
years ago, Hunter and I moved the gun powder keg out of Johnny's room bc of the instability of gun powder. I've kept the living areas of the house frozen in time because it brought me comfort. But now, I'd like to open it as a public museum, but the way the Gonzo Trust is written, Hunter was the most protective husband a woman could ask for. I'm to live here in this house until I die, or sell have the right it for money. So, I'm working to find another solution before Hunter's birthday on July 18th. I'm suck a unpopular nag when it comes to Hunter's legacy, which annoys the trustees and many other people who would rather have the cash than a proper legacy going forward. i understand how difficult the economy is -- I feel it in my bones. But again... you know the story
I'll keep you posted. As Hunter's readers do indeed have a right to know what the future of Owl Farm holds.
Anyway, was Amber Heard on Carson Daly last night? I sort of miss the TV. I've said before Amber Heard looks like a shimmering jet engine in the Rum Diary film. Gorgeous woman.
Also, read Rory Feehan's review of the Book of Conflated Hunter S. Thompson writing... Thanks Rory, I'm so glad you posted. Never a dull moment.
I'll get to more Q&A later -- it's a cloudy, gloomy day, and I've got a ton of work that I didn't finish yesterday. I'm off to build a fire and get to paperwork --urg.
lots of love from Owl Farm,
Anita Thompson
