Johnny Depp Has Decided To Perform At A Concert While Awaiting Verdict

Johnny Depp is currently awaiting a ruling in a massive defamation case involving Amber Heard, his ex-wife and famous actor.

Rather than laying low, Depp has decided to appear with English guitarist Jeff Beck on stage at London's Royal Albert Hall during a rock concert. The duo performed a series of covers including Isolation by John Lennon.

He showed up to the shows, both on Sunday and Monday, with the Virginia jurors adjourning the case on Friday without returning a verdict.

Depp sued his ex-wife for $50 million USD, following claims that she defamed him in an opinion piece she wrote in which she described herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse”.

A counter-sue followed for double that amount, with Heard arguing that Depp smeared her reputation following his lawyer calling the accusations against Depp a "hoax".

The discussions will resume on Tuesday, the same day Beck has another show scheduled at the same venue.
