Marilyn Manson used a racial slur against The Smashing Pumpkins’ James Iha during a text message conversation with Johnny Depp.The conversation happened in 2016 after Lindsay Usich (Manson’s current wife) allegedly “filed a police report” against Manson.The text accuses Usich of “pulling an Amber (Heard)” by getting the police involved but, according to Manson, it was only because her brother-in-law James Iha and her “poor, fat Mom want to steal my money”. It’s here Manson uses a racial slur targeted at people of East Asian descent.According to the texts, Depp then offers Manson a place to “hide out”, if he needs it.More text messages between Marilyn Manson and Johnny Depp pic.twitter.com/T02Mh1rrqU— kamilla (@k4mil1aa) July 31, 2022Thousands of pages of documents filed in Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s defamation case were unsealed at the end of last month, with Depp supporters paying over $3,300 (£2700) to access the files.At the start of June, the jury in the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial gave their verdict, ruling in favour of Depp.The verdict was returned after almost 13 hours of deliberation across three days at the district court in Fairfax, Virginia.Depp has been awarded $10million (£8million) in compensatory damages and $5million in punitive damages.

musical collaboration. Depp, 59, and the 78-year-old former Yardbirds axman released an album dubbed “18” last month, weeks after the actor won his bombshell defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard.One of the record’s tracks features Depp uttering lines that were spoken by a convicted murderer and robber named Slim Wilson in 1964, according to Rolling Stone.Slim Wilson — whose real name was Willie Davis — was a train-hopping pimp and gambling cheat that recited a series of lewd poems.The poems, called “toasts,” were recorded by folklorist Bruce Jackson while Wilson served time in Missouri State Penitentiary, the outlet reported.Bruce Jackson recorded Wilson reciting a toast called “Hobo Ben” and included a transcription of the piece in his 1974 book “Get Your Ass in The Water and Swim Like Me.”Lines from “Hobo Ben” reappeared almost verbatim on Depp and Beck’s new experimental spoken-word song “Sad Mother—–n’ Parade,” on which the duo received the only songwriting credits.“The only two lines I could find in the whole piece that [Depp and Beck] contributed are ‘Big time motherf—-r’ and ‘Bust it down to my level,’” Jackson told Rolling Stone.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorJohnny Depp and Jeff Beck have been accused of lifting lyrics for their song “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade” from an obscure “toast” sung by an incarcerated man and documented and released by a folklorist in 1974, according to a report in Rolling Stone.A large number of lyrics of the Depp/Beck song “18” are strikingly similar to lines from a toast — an often-profane form of Black folk poetry from years past — called “Hobo Ben” and apparently written by a man named Slim Wilson who was serving an armed-robbery sentence at Missouri State Penitentiary and documented by Bruce Jackson in his 1974 book about toasts, “Get Your Ass in the Water and Swim Like Me,” and a companion album. Wilson — whose name is a pseudonym — is not listed in the song’s credits.

Johnny Depp’s assistant said the actor allegedly kicked Amber Heard in the head, according to unsealed court papers. Text messages sent in 2014 from the actor’s then-employee Stephen Deuters are said to have detailed how the actor apparently attacked the ‘Aquaman’ actress, 36, onboard a private jet. Mention of them was barred from the former couple’s defamation trial but have been made public in a tranche of 6,000-plus pages of unsealed documents from the case, which released over the weekend.

Johnny Depp’s ex Ellen Barkin suggested there was a “world of violence” surrounding the actor.

Newly unsealed court documents from actor Johnny Depp’s defamation lawsuit against Amber Heard, 36, have revealed several pieces of unheard information. The trial ended two months ago, with Johnny, 59, being announced to have won the trial a month later after the jury voted in his favour. It has been reported that the new documents have revealed some of the cross accusations put forward by both Johnny and Amber’s legal teams – but they were prevented from using them.

Marilyn Manson texted Johnny Depp in 2016 calling his now-wife Lindsay Usich an “Amber 2.0” in a reference to Depp’s ex-wife Amber Heard.

The legal battle continues. Two months after a jury ruled in favor of Johnny Depp in his defamation case against Amber Heard, pretrial court documents have been unsealed, revealing evidence that was ruled “inadmissible” during the highly publicized trial.

If you thought the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard trial was crazzzy, just wait until you read about what evidence was banned from the courtroom!!
