Johnny Depp
's former managers from The Management Group are calling him a "habitual liar who denies responsibility for his own outrageous conduct."
This is the latest allegation in a bitter financial lawsuit between Johnny and TMG. In January this year, Johnny filed a lawsuit for more than $25 million, citing fraud and negligence. The company responded with a countersuit, blaming Depp's $2-million-a-month lifestyle.
On Tuesday evening, the actor told Wall Street Journal: "I've worked very, very hard for a lot of years and trusted a lot of people, some who've clearly let me down."
He said that his spending habits are his concerns and shouldn't be questioned. "It's my money. If I want to buy 15,000 cotton balls a day, it's my thing."
Johnny also raised the question: "Why didn't they drop me as a client if I was so out of control?"
On Wednesday morning David Shane, a spokesman for The Management Group, responded that Johnny is a "habitual liar who denies responsibility for his own outrageous conduct and coerces others to lie for him."
"Johnny Depp and his sister were involved in every significant business decision during the 17 years TMG represented him. Depp now admits to his extravagant spending, but blames TMG for not dropping him as a client."
He should never have married the lesbian. That was the start of his troubles.
I mean, he does have point, it is HIS money to do as he pleases. But still, to lose that kind of fortune? Crazy.
It's true, it his money and TMG is just looking for an excuse to blame him.
BIG mistake...never fully trust anyone with YOUR money!
Sooooooooo, who doesn't lie? We have this belief that we shouldn't lie... The reality is "We Lie". If there is a person here that has never lied. Please speak out. Lots of Love to you Johnny Depp! :-) All Power to you Babe.
Yes I agree its his money on how he wants to spend his money...everyone in this life is always accountable to someone whether it is to us or them ..
Johnny Depp is one of the best character actors that Hollywood has produced. Like anyone who is creative in whatever medium he has his quirks. No one should question what he wants to buy if he has the cash flow to buy it. I am sure TMG has made alot of money over the past 17 years in managing Johnny Depp but the swords come out because they dont want their reputation hurt by his claims. As far as Johnny Depp being in financial trouble as the media reports, I very much doubt it. He has many homes and star power and can easily make $20 million if he makes another movie as he is on the A List in Hollywood. As with many men their perceived downfall seems to happen when they leave a woman who is stable and go with a woman without thinking about the impact on their life and kids. If he is guilty of anything it is making rash decisions in his personal life. Trevor Jones Linkedin Toronto Ontario Canada
REALLY.... bunch of b.s... If he earned it, it is his money period. If I had that kind of money I would do as I please plus he is a great actor and his personal life is no concern of ours. Thanks for the great movies Johnny and hope there is many more. Just so you know, your movies make me feel like I am rich.
I agree with the above - he can do what he wants with his money!!
TMG should mind their own business, what Mr. Drop does is his own business. TMG act like busy bodies, Johnny shoukd of walked away from them long ago.
Poor Johnny Depp. When are people going to leave him alone? It's like he's become a target. What did he ever do to anyone?
Johnny is my favorite actor ever NE CARBARUNDUM ILLIGITIMI Jon...........Russ
Johnny your the best I think TMG should sit in the back corner and eat there words up As one day you won't be making the money that you would be off of Johnny Depp if you keep your bs up Lol Does Johnny ask you what you spend your money on ? More then likely not as he doesn't ask as he knows it's none of his business Being a manager that isn't the way things are run !! Then drag his name to the public and call him a liar, I would sue you too None of your busy ppl's business Lol Love ya Johnny :) Spend your money happily and make more and more movies Love em ()
Nobody is perfect, he's a human being like all of us. But I'm certain that the good he has done for others far outweigh any of the recent slanderous garbage people are spreading. If he made mistakes, they're his to make.
