Depp is suing Heard for libel, saying her 2018 Washington Post op-ed defamed him when she described herself as someone "representing domestic abuse.”

As Heard continued her testimony, she alleged a pattern of Depp abusing alcohol and cocaine, displaying erratic behavior including holding his dog out the window of a moving car and accusing Heard of an affair she says she didn't have, and physically abusing her. Depp focused his eyes downward for a majority of the testimony.

  1. Haven’t seen a min of the trial until now & have no idea what it’s even about, but that was so rehearsed it was just like a scene from Guiding Light in the 90’s. 😮

  2. This person could have told me her hair is bleached and I wouldn’t believe a word out of her mouth.

    1. What an odd choice of words… If you think she’s lying then you call her a liar but saying over dramatic sounds more like you are taking her story as word but think she’s being too emotional about it? If she’s telling the truth then it would not be overdramatic to cry and act this way while describing an instance of domestic violence.

    2. @Mallory K because she’s doing acting techniques taught in schools. The breathe-less delivery. The constant head turning. It’s one thing to get emotional during a testimony. It’s another phrasing the events like a monologue script reading from a movie.

  3. My wife is a retired prosecutor. She has tried more than 40 criminal cases to verdict. It took her only moments to recognize that Heard is acting. I hope the jury recognizes the act also.

    1. I’m not qualified in any manner but I could also recognise she was acting. That’s how BAD the acting was 😂

    2. @Darth Gangsta This is how the freshman theatre class sounds rehearsing monologues at my school.

  4. Amber: “You can’t hit anyone”
    Also
    Amber: “I did not punch you, I hit you”
    What a joke.

  5. So where are the audio recordings of Johnny admitting to assault to counter all of ambers 🤣

  6. Amber should try her hand at YouTuber apologies. The acting is about the same level of believable.

  7. I’m not the smartest tool in the shed, and can obviously tell she’s putting on an act.

  8. The way she stumbled on her words at one point and the look on her face that said “that wasn’t what I rehearsed” 😂

  9. Amber: I don’t exactly recall specifically
    Also Amber: he held me and hit my face with a force of 9.455766 kilonewtons
