Everyone has an opinion on the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial, but I doubt anyone expected for Courtney Love to wade in with a public endorsement of Johnny Depp and some weird half assed putdown of Amber Heard.

Courtney was speaking on her Instagram live when she decided to share her opinions, praising Johnny Depp for the way that he saved her life when she overdosed back in 1995 and for the way that he had always gone above and beyond the call of duty with her daughter Frances Bean. She didn’t have such kind words for Amber Heard. Take a look at it below and see what you think:
I don’t really wanna make judgments publicly. I just want to tell you that Johnny gave me CPR in 1995 when I overdosed outside The Viper Room.
Johnny, when I was on crack and Frances was having to suffer through that with all these social workers, wrote her a four-page letter that she’s never showed me.
Then he sent limos to her school where all the social workers were crawling around, again, unasked, for her and all her friends to go to both ‘Pirates’ [Pirates of the Caribbean].
He did it a bunch of times. He gave her her own seat [at the premieres] with her name on it.
I’ve never seen one of those ‘Pirates’ movies, but [Frances] loved them. You know, she said to me when she was 13, ‘Mama, he saved my life.’ And she said it again.
I’ve been the most hated woman in America.
I’ve been the most hated woman in the world before TikTok and it’s a really… I have a lot of empathy for what that must feel like for Amber. F**k man, wow, can you imagine being her?
But if you use a movement for your own personal gain, and you inhabit queer feminist intersectional spaces, and you abuse that moment, then I hope justice gets served whatever it is.
Wow that last line is a bit snide isn’t it? Pretty much full on calling Heard out for being formerly married to a woman and using the #MeToo movement to advance her career despite neither of those really being confirmed. Pretty scathing.
Anyway, I’ve no doubt that Johnny Depp probably did save Courtney Love’s life back in 1995 and has been really nice to Frances Bean over years, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that he wasn’t a complete shithead to Amber Heard as well and didn’t abuse her/beat her up. Those two aspects of his personality aren’t mutually exclusive. That’s for the jury to decide though. Not really sure what the benefit of Courtney Love coming out and saying all this is though.
