Johnny Depp’s court trial is fast turning into a public circus – and the A-lister’s female fans have everything to do with it
The actor and his ex-wife Amber Heard are currently embroiled in a $100m defamation trial in Los Angeles. This stems from allegations made by Amber that her Hollywood star ex allegedly abused her throughout their marriage.
The couple were married from 2015 to 2017 and have endured a messy split and war of words.
In return, Amber is counter-suing Johnny Depp after his legal team claimed her 2018 Washington Post op-ed about being a victim of domestic abuse were “elaborate lies”.
Whilst the trial continues to see shocking allegations being made in the courtroom – like voice recordings in which Amber Heard admits to abusing Johnny Depp – one female fan is showing her support to the male star.
And that is in the form of a stuffed toy of a llama or alpaca.
Spotted outside the courtroom Andrea Diaz clammed the two cuddly toys were in a bid to show “emotional support”. She told Washington Post: “I thought the alpacas might brighten his day…I figured I would just give it a shot.”
This after Johnny Depp revealed that he would never return to his popular role of Captain Jack Sparrow; “Not for 300 mil and a million alpacas”.
The comment – made during the trial – was after Depp revealed that Disney had axed him from their Pirates of the Caribbean franchise after Heard’s allegations of abuse.
Johnny Depp has alleged in court proceedings that he, rather was the victim of his ex-wife’s physical and emotional abuse. On the flip slide, the court has heard how Johnny Depp put out a lit cigarette on his spouse in a voice recording played on Monday, 25 April.

Meanwhile, hoards of female fans continue to flock to court everyday to show their support to the hunky Hollywood star.
Bearing placards that read: “Justice for Johnny” and “Never fear truth”, the women are believed to have come from far and wide to attend the trial and catch a glimpse of their crush.
The Johnny fandom. Already lining up to give him the love and support he deserves. I was here by 4:30 a.m., others long before me, with more to come. Yesterday we had over 100 SUPPORTERS, BEFORE 7 a.m.

The legion of women have even been cautioned by the presiding judge for causing a “disturbance” in the court. This, after they were heard giggling after a voice recording was played in court in which Johnny Depp called his ex a “fat a**e” and “f**king c**t.”
On Tuesday 26 April Johnny Depp was seemingly distracted by the women again after he fumbled his way through his testimony, to the amusement of the gallery.
He said when asked what films he had starred in, Depp smiled and said: “I’m so pathetic when it comes to knowing what movies I’ve done. I’m sorry. I just, I don’t watch them. I feel better not watching them. What was the question again?”.
After fans giggled again, Judge Penney Azcarate issued them with a stern warning. “Order in the court or I will have you removed. Understood?” she said.
Depp: I don’t watch them. I feel better not watching them. What was the question again?
With that, there is an eruption of laughter in the courtroom.

Ahead of the trial, the judge also set in place strict instructions in a court letter to anyone who attended the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard trial.
According to People, she also ordered that there “will be no overnight camping on Courthouse grounds” and “all spectators are expected to dress in a manner consistent with the decorum of a judicial proceeding.”
In addition, she stated that: “Audible comments of any kind during the court proceedings or provocative or uncivil behavior within the courtroom or courthouse will not be tolerated,”
And that “there shall be no gestures, facial expressions, or the like, suggesting approval or disapproval during the proceedings”.
Anyone found in violation of the court order will be “expelled immediately” and will not be able to return.
