Blind Item #14

I think it is actually a legitimate question to ask whether this former A+ list mostly movie actor who is still A list will ever be able to get it together long enough to make another movie. It was that former A+ list singer who really sent this downward spiral into motion when the singer got the actor back on the hard stuff the actor had quit decades ago.

Depp/Manson

gfbcpa said...

Johnny Depp and....

I can't make Keith Richards fit...he is not a singer.

andrea said...

Wow. Never knew Manson and Depp were friends. What a piece of shit, won’t surprise me if Depp is dead in the next year or so.

#TEAMGEELJIRE CLASSIC said...

Bonded over mutual love of Tim Burton I guess

Tom Jobes said...

Yes I agree Depp. He looks gaunt and wizened these days. If Manson got him back on the smack, then she truly is TRASH.

MichiganMama59 said...

He can barely walk without assistance. What a waste.

yepthatsme said...

How do you get someone hooked? Put a gun to their head? Threaten their loved ones? Steal their wifi password?

plot said...

Wait, Depp has been on the hard stuff for years now, since he broke up with Vanessa and dated Amber. There were no decades where he was clean except early in his marriage to Vanessa.

Someone else.

I think he has been on a downward spiral long before Manson got to him.

#Winona/Wino forever +Kate Moss=Johnny left the building a long time ago#

parissucksliterally said...

Depp looks as if he is at Death's door.

Unknown said...

He never married Vanessa and he never stopped doing drugs let’s be honest

VikingSong said...

Tom, Marilyn Manson is a dude not a woman.

notthisagain said...

@tricia

absolutely correct. johnny depp and manson. isnt manson a methhead in a blind recently?

MDAnderson said...

Lmao. Seriously, don’t put this all on Manson!!

Allie said...

On what planet, even in Hollywood, is Marilyn Manson still relevant? He was, is and always will be a "hanger-on" trying to impress anyone and everyone with his makeup. He is fugly, he is old and he is a weirdo. Seriously, who even knows who he is any longer?

#TEAMGEELJIRE CLASSIC said...

If you grew up in the 90s, Marilyn Manson did 9/11

Unknown said...

Marilyn Manson was a gimmick at some point in music no? I don't recall him ever being really that relevant?

Mango said...

Manson was never A+, no way. I wonder if Enty is muddying the waters by referring to Keith Richards as (just) a singer... KR sang mostly background vocals but did sing lead on some Stones’ songs, however he’s primarily known as a guitarist for the band.

Rufus T said...

Downward spiral is a common phrase but it's also a NIN album, I do hope this isn't Trent Reznor.

Sara, Making It Work said...

This doesn't really make sense for Johnny Depp. He's making all kinds of movies.
This reads to me like someone who is semi retired.

Jon said...

Hey everyone!,

Long time lurker, first time poster. Strange that I find myself addicted to CDAN - I've never read a gossip or celebrity magazine, never watched a reality show (except for a couple of episodes of Inked, bc I was fantasizing about having Kat Von D ride pillion on my bike, lol). Had to look up some new terms such as 'yachting", "PMK", etc. Still don't know what "in the DM" means if anyone wants to help a newbie...

Love (most of) the comments here (aside from the overarching conspiracy stuff). Such wit, and - and suprised to find on the internet - compassion!

So here goes - my first public blind guess: Alice Cooper?

VikingSong said...

DM = Daily Mail. It's a newspaper.

Tricia13 said...

Hey Jon:)
Welcome to the Jungle lol.
Cooper is a good guess but sober bout 25 years . He’s awesome also from what I’ve heard and bery into sobriety and helping others. Think his biggest vice is Golf(true$, and as my dad is still an obsessed golfer/probably keeps him on the straight and narrow...
Welcome and have fun 🤙

#TEAMGEELJIRE CLASSIC said...

Get ready to lose the smug attitude about "conspiracy"

VikingSong said...

It's Depp. The "hard stuff" is smack which he did quit decades ago. The singer is either Manson or Richards. Manson was A list. It's a shame to see how ill he's got and I do believe he will die either this year or the next. It's a shame he didn't stay with Vannesa, but no one knows what happened. The split wasn't acrimonious. He was healthy when he filmed the Rum Diary and met Amber. That woman is cancer in heels.

sandybrook said...

Hi Chase Parker San Bernardino California!! Guess what you got hacked!!

Jon said...

Thanks @Tricia.

@Geeljire - We'll see.

Been around the block a few times, lived in three different countries, had a Top-Secret clearance, still read books... and guess what - I still haven't lost my smug attitude about flat-earthers.

#TEAMGEELJIRE CLASSIC said...

I think it's splendid to whip out your TS clearance day 1 and invoke flat earth, which doesn't seem to have any presence here!
At least I'll know who brought it!

IanPhlegming said...

If this is Depp, it's got a bunch of red herrings, because he's making a movie right now.

Like @Rufus, because of "Downward Spiral," I think this is Trent Reznor, who recently worked with Depp on a "Make A Wish" foundation project:

https://people.com/human-interest/make-a-film-foundation/


Manson is a good hypothesis as well, and I would place MM at A+ in his prime (even if his music didn't appeal to me, those lyrics were as smart as they were brutal) before Reznor. But he appears to be going down in flames himself.

Alice Cooper would be in front of both of them, but I've also heard (like Tricia13) that Cooper's been clean for a long time and plays golf all the time.

If Keef is doing heroin (again. Again. Again.) that would be quite impressive for a 70+ year old dude. Then again, we know from past history he'll often fly to Switzerland, filter 25 pints of fresh blood through his body on one of those machines for a couple hundred thousand bucks, and instantly get clean. So maybe he's got that down to a science. He's got at least two dozen Stones songs he sings lead, plus a couple solo albums with the Winos. It could be him, but that would be bad.

Of course, if it's not Depp, I just spent wasted 250 words down the wrong shadow path.

VikingSong said...

I think your suggestion of Reznor is also plausible, Donna.

NYC A Girl Has No Name said...

@ Rufus T
I believe that Trent Reznor "found" Marilyn Manson and took him under his wing for a bit at the beginning of his career...
Perhaps that is the hint for MM?

NYC A Girl Has No Name said...

Also, I don't remember Reznor doing heroin. He was an alcoholic.

#TEAMGEELJIRE CLASSIC said...

Come on Aryan Cum Princess why don't you want to take shots at me anymore?
You yield to Geeljire?
Accepted.😎

Trent Reznor, Alice Cooper and Keith Richards have been sober for years. Depp is my guess because he looks so unhealthy. ("Another movie" referring to another movie after whatever he is working on now, if anything.) M. Manson apparently still uses drugs and has never looked healthy.

Unknown said...

FWIW, the Hollywood Vampires just finished performing in Manchester, England. Katie Fitzpatrick of the Manchester Evening News reported Depp looked younger than his 55 yrs and, despite the recent stories about him looking ill or gaunt, he: looked far from it, I can assure you Mr Scissorhands looks in fine fettle indeed here in Manchester, and like he’s having the absolute time of his life as he smiles, applauds and waves in appreciation for all the cheers from the crowd.

OKay said...

MM is garbage. Having said that, I am NOT gonna blame him for what Johnny Depp does to himself.

Unknown said...

SO you’re blaming a woman on a grown mans decision to do drugs? They split up in May of 2016 mainly because is drug and alcohol issues.. till this day he’s still going even though they’ve split two years ago and she’s no longer in his life so how exactly is she to blame? Stop the fuckery. He should take responsibility for his own actions.

Unknown said...

Exactly nobody is forcing this shit on him, he’s a grown ass man who knows his own mind.

tami jane said...

Accurate

VikingSong said...

You don't know much about Amber Heard, do you Unknown? She has an alcohol/coke addiction problem herself. I don't suppose her falsely accusing him of wife beating AFTER he refused to pay her $50'000 a month - which even her own lawyer thought was excessive - exactly helped him either. Yes, he takes the share of the blame for his drinking/drug habits too, but your incessant defending of Amber Heard is laughable given her criminal history. She is not the victim you think she is. And Depp only got back on the booze and drugs when he hooked up with her. He was clean prior to getting involved with her. As said before, it's a shame he and Vanessa split up. He was healthy when they were together.

Unknown said...

The only blinds you will read about Alice Cooper are Kindness blinds. He is amazing, in every single way. A true gentleman, great golfer, and he is funny as fuck.

Unknown said...

And I'm down with the Depp/MM guess.

Jon said...

@Geeljire Back to your basement, you sad, friendless troll.

The Dark Side said...

Viking Song - I know it's sad having to take down the JD posters that adorns your walls - but don't blame Amber Heard. She may have added to the collateral damage - after all his public persona was suddenly up for debated, but don't be confused JD did this to himself.

He has been self sabotaging for years and years. He may have gotten away with it in France with the little paparazzi - but the dude can't handle his shit. You think he looks that way because of Amber? He looks like that because of drugs.

plot said...

Can confirm, Alice Cooper is a sweetheart and happily sober.

Depp was productive as hell when he was with Vanessa. A lot of it was Tim Burton crap, on top of Pirates crap, but he was still working constantly, visiting children's hospitals in pirate garb, spending time with his kids. After leaving her, he went off the rails. Whether it's now heavy drugs rather than some mild drugs while with Vanessa, he took a dramatic turn for the worse.

Marilyn Manson is fucked up these days but I miss his interviews of the 90s - sharp fellow.

Xanadu said...

Johnny Depp ruined himself.

Depp had the whole world in the palm of his hand and a relatively intact reputation (apart from a few mild bad boy moments during the 21 Jump Street era). He even made it through the early rumours of him putting his hands on Kate Moss.

He's attracted to abusive weirdos - Charles Manson, Marilyn Manson, Hunter S Thompson, Marlon Brando, etc... You are who surround yourself with.

His fans only see him as a tragic artist, who's not responsible for anything and he's determined to die that way. Until recently, his teeth have been rotting out of his head and media pretend they don't notice.

Ultimately, Depp will go down as another fallen, Hollywood hero and the ex wives/girlfriend of the moment will be stuck with the blame.

Amanuensis said...

Ugh. Must be Depp, who is clearly an addict. Not sure about who’s led him into temptation.

Do Tell said...

Aside from and before his drug problems, Johnny Depp has been a raging alcoholic for years, even when he was with Vanessa. There is a reason she didn;'t marry him and is now said to be engaged to someone else. It certainly isn't that she is not the marrying type. It was that Johnny was/is a mess. Sadly, now his daughter is a mess as well.

#TEAMGEELJIRE CLASSIC said...

Wow that escalated quickly

VikingSong said...

@The Dark Side - Posters? I'm married with kids. I'm not in my teens or even in my twenties, so don't patronize me.

How many fucking times does it have to be said? Depp was CLEAN when he was with Vanessa. They were together for 14 years. He only got heavy into the booze and drugs again after he and Vanessa split up and he had hooked up with Amber Heard who is a coke addict. He looked perfectly healthy right up until he had finished shooting on the Rum Diaries (when he got with Heard). I know Amber's pretty, but she has a long criminal past.

FFS, she only divorced him because he wouldn't let her move her ex-wife into his house and she was hooking up with her girlfriends while they were married. But yes, Amber played no part in Depp's alcoholism at all...

Her handing him divorce papers within days of his Mother's death was real classy, but she bested that by accusing him of DV out of the blue just before the Alice Through The Looking Glass premier AFTER he refused to pay her $50'000 a MONTH.

But yes, Amber - wine hound coke addict announced she was a Lesbian at the 2010 GLAD awards which she attended with her wife - Heard played no part in Depp's alcoholism/drug addiction.

littlebeanpole said...

Depp/Manson. Absolutely not Trent Reznor who is sober, a family man, and touring his new album. “Downward Spiral” is a NIN album but Trent Reznor produced a couple of Manson’s albums, hence the connection.

Spudmonkey said...

So this site's unstable man-hating bunny-boiler has massive rose tinted glasses for Deep, deludedly believes he was perfectly clean and sober with VM, but that the nasty criminal lying whore Amber Heard is the source of all poor wee Johnnys troubles?...
Ah-huh, okay, very sane logic yet again...
I suppose bat-shit crazy viking also thinks Amber was the one who killed Johnnys partner in the Viper Room, and that innocent wee Johnny had absolutely nothing to do with it...
But lets not open that can off worms...

plot said...

@Epileptic

Correlation or causation, who knows. Our own eyes show us that Depp went down hill with Amber. She might have only been a spectator, we don't know. But she is prone to breaking laws and contracts (she now has to defend herself against a $10 million lawsuit brought just a few months ago by a movie studio. )


It didn't shock me to find out she is a lover of Ayn Rand who instructs many a sociopath how to stem the tide of sympathy towards other human beings and take whatever they need as the Super Special People on planet Earth.

BTW, Angie Jolie is another member of the Randian cult who read one book in their lives and now they understand everything about politics, sociology, philosophy, economics and personal relationships.

Gingerelle said...

I wouldn't label Trent Reznor as a singer anyway. Produces, writes, multi-instrumentalist who also sings...he is NIN. Don't think it's him. I'll agree that using Downward Spiral in the blind is interesting. I also don't think of Marilyn Manson as a singer and certainly not a Former A+ list singer. Former A+ singer has to be known for his/her singing...unless this is just really shit writing on enty's part.

Gingerelle said...

The actor is Depp, for sure.

pixiegothy said...

well watching (s)AINT music video by Manson is enough to make any junkie to fall of the wagon, lol, Depp shouldn't hang out with him if he can't keep himself clean, it's his own fault though. Sad to hear that Manson is a meth head now, I know people hate Manson but he used to be huge back in the day, he was deff A, he still have a huge fanbase and probably fill venues around the world.
I also miss his interviews @plot! I miss those days you could see Manson or Peter Steele on tv, when mtv used to play music, it was also nice to have something alternative on the mainstream radio, everything is so boring and predictable now

LB whosthischick said...

One only needs to look at mansions tour schedule of the last year and Johnny’s work schedule. Other than the videos they made, which would have taken a day each, the Charlie sheen photo where I saw one with Manson, One or two concerts together? and Manson’s bday party, they have had relatively minimum time together of a large span of time.
