Leaked email from Johnny Depp to manager on his financial situation

"and some semblance of a soul left"

Haha wow. he should sell the rights to broadcast the meeting he has with his financial advisors. Could be pretty good television IMO.

Depp also spent wildly on expensive collectibles, including millions to acquire and maintain a massive and extremely expensive art collection including over 200 collectible pieces and works by world famous artists such as Warhol, Klimt, Basquiat, and Modigliani; many pieces of expensive world class jewelry; and approximately 70 collectible guitars. Depp also spent many millions more over the years on extremely rare and expensive Hollywood collectibles. Depp’s collection of Hollywood memorabilia involving such icons as Marilyn Monroe, John Dillinger and Marlon Brando is so extensive that it fills approximately 12 storage facilities and has cost over a million additional dollars to attempt to archive.

This past September, Depp put one of his Los Angeles homes on the market for $12.8 million. Images revealed works from his extensive art collection, including a large mural by the Brazilian artist duo OSGEMEOS. The 24-foot-high artwork, which Depp specifically commissioned for the space, was set to leave with him when he moved, real estate agent Kevin Dees of Partners Trust told artnet News. Depp also sold a group of nine Jean-Michel Basquiat paintings at Christie’s London this past June for £8.7 million ($13.7 million).

he didn't start off poorly, b/c travel can be a major issue for huge stars. i can't fault him for the private jet comments

but yeah...it's pretty ironic that he's associating material possessions with his "soul"

Dude's got way too much white privilege.

Didn't he make the choice to move to France? Constantly flying back and forth can't be cheap.

But, regarding the plane situation… I don’t have all that many options at the moment,” he wrote. “A commercial flight with paparazzis in tow would be a f--king nightmare of monumental proportions.”

ohhh

When every movie you make nets you 20-35 million, and you're still living paycheck to paycheck....something's wrong

If the Mandels are being truthful, Depp has/had a HUGE spending problem.

Shades of Nicholas Cage back in the day. I can understand how frustrated his financial managers have to be... even a vague semblance of financial responsibility would have left him swimming in cash till the day he died.

so that's why he starred in transcendence.

The suit later revealed that Depp spent $75million to purchase 14 residences in the South of France, $18million to purchase and remodel a 150-foot yacht, splashed out $30,000 each month on wine and had a fleet of at least 45 luxury vehicles.

Other costs included Depp's full-time staff of 40 employees that cost him $300,000 per month, $150,000 on 24/7 security for himself and his two children, a Gulfstream GV which set him back $200,000 every month and the $4million he put up to fund a friend's independent music label, Unison.
