Actor Johnny Depp has been returning to news headlines this entire year. Previously it was his controversial defamation trial with ex-partner Amber Heard. And now, it’s his rumoured appearance in Rihanna’s new Savage X Fenty show. In the latest buzz around the “Diamonds” singer’s collection showcase, Johnny Depp is said to have filmed a cameo in the much-awaited presentation. And with this, the sea of reactions hit Depp, like a terrible tsunami. For Rihanna’s fourth outing with the Savage X Fenty collaboration, Depp is said to make an appearance, alongside performances by Simu Liu, Anitta, and Cara Delevingne, amongst others.
Reacting to Depp’s cameo, the internet seemingly lost its cool. While some urged the Amazon team to remove the actor’s clip from the showcase, some others pushed #DitchDepp, and expressed their disappointment over Rihanna. Some others also said, “why are you supporting an abuser, while being a victim of abuse yourself.” Not just this, but if at all Depp makes it to the final cut, he will also become the first man to feature as a “star” in the popular Savage X Fenty show.
Savage x Fenty is already a flop adding Johnny Depp to the mix is just another example of how out of touch Rihanna actually is

Rihanna inviting Johnny Depp to her show is so, so fucking weird. Not a single billionaire on this planet with decency and she’s keeping up the trend sadly
