So according to when you are found to be innocent when a psycho (A.H) brings up charges against you, WITH NO HARD PROOF, you should go sit and cry in a dark corner until you die. Not celebrate. Wow , biased much?

Newsweek using Depp as a clickbait again.

No debate here !!

You sellouts at Newsweek put this up for one Eva fartlow? Did she pay you off She’s the only one on the article and on planet saying it was not nice to see Johnny out there? You think 99% of the world is wrong AFTER REVIEWING THE EVIDENCE!?

Music has always been there for Johnny. That's what he's been doing while he didn't have movies. He's been performing with Jeff Beck for a few years now. He never claimed AH op Ed affected that. It affected his career in Hollywood.

No it doesnt soark a debate. When someone makes such serious and false allegation of Sexual and physical assault, there is no way he was gonna sit back and let it slide.

Why hes had his life sabotaged by somebody who was one sided. Wouldn't let him go one with his life. The both sides of story surfaced he deserves to have his life as it was. Before, the drama dropped on his life like this bad article. Team Johnny. All the way.

But I guess going to Coachella having PTSD is ok? He wasn’t cancelled by his friends, Hollywood did, specifically Disney. Seriously Newsweek, why aren’t you protecting an abused victim? Is it because he is a man, do you line up with Heards words?

Who's the one living life and who's the one hiding out in the desert in CA? Seems one is afraid of media and the other is leaning into it. She'll be canceled. He reap millions on future projects and... rightfully so. byeamber

Basing your “canceled” debate on Barlow is as crazy as it comes. If she were able to open her eyes for a second and actually see the evidence, she would be able to see what 99% of the world sees of her friend.

Smoking a blunt as he waves to the good byes.

Who's canceling him? What a ridiculous headline. He has a right, after 6 years, to have a life free of Scamber's lies and accusations. Let him have it back. Stop the bs.

Friends don't last in Ambuser's circle. They all leave! Why won't they explain reasons for no longer being friends? Eventually Eve Barlow will also disappear from AH's life. He been constantly on trial for 6 years! He deserves to do what he loves most and what brings him peace!

He needs to work to pay all those legal fees and support his kids. Why hate on a man earning a living just because his job is playing guitar? Can't win with some people.

Lol is that a joint

whoever writes for y’all sucks. journalism sucks

My man JD! Atta boy!!

So everyone should assume he’s guilty while waiting for a verdict? Sounds like typical American Justice

see that johhny took took a stright essssh hit hold it in ,, so what you guys think passign it to shot gun

which discussion Hollywood canceled on him, he was supposed to sit back and starve, or he should have been like Heard and her friends and become a Guardian. He fortunately he is a talented man.

see that joint good shit he aint smoking house joint leaf bruh, look at it telling yall all the way thru couldnt you tell, the 21 century cig,

Johnny Depp was 'canceled' by 2 major studios. But the masses watched the UK trial and saw that Amber photoshopped many photos and moved the dates of the photos and changed her story about the stairs 8 times and Johnny's finger 5 times and we want Johnny to get his career back.

Johnny Depp is turning into Jack Nicholson.

I shall just leave this here... The mainstream media cannot be trusted to report the truth. IBelieveJohnnyDepp JusticeForJohnnyDepp

He was in a sense canceled before everyone got to see and hear the truth for themselves. Glad he is back doing something he loves.

johnny has been canceled by big studio like Disney and WB him doing consort was never the problem and he didn't say it was

He’s at a concert? So? I’d imagine he’s relaxing now after that long trial, also now maybe he’s happy the whole world knows his story.

OH FFS! He has been carrying this around for 6years,should he just wallow for the rest of his life,instead of getting on with it?

Spoiler: no the fuck it didn’t Lmao

The only person that should be 'cancelled' is Amber Heard. There is no place in Hollywood, or anywhere else, for abusers. JusticeForJohnnyDepp

What on earth are you talking about? Oh…it's Ms Barlow who is sparking debate…nuff said! It's hardly a debate…

Leave him alone to get on with his life

Please change the title and be HONEST. Ofcourse he was cancelled. Where are his studio contracts? He just played with his friends in a band. You people want to twist the reality 😣 what is wrong with you? How could you go to sleep peacefully at nights? 🤔

It's time the 'news' stopped trying to 'cancel' anybody who is accused of something without them first being tried and found guilty.

Aren't y'all cancelled? Lol

I'm sorry, but regardless if he is 'innocent' or not, he's still a man, and yesallmen are abusers.

Barlow's comments are not worth repeating or quoting

I wouldn't call it 'debate' comparing one nut job to basically everyone who's been watching the trial.

he was 'canceled' until this trial where everyone saw the truth for themselves

He' lol in. Money talks!

The list keeps growing. So far newsweek, inside edition, msnbc and fox have all been trying desperately to convince the public Johnny is bad for being abused. sellouts

Good for him. He is aloud to go do something he loves after this. He had his story silenced by ah for 6 years this has got to be the most freeing thing. Happy for him!

I don't rate Eve Barlow's response at all. She seems the only friend Heard has left. I noticed all the depositions for her were from some time ago and 'friends' didn't appear in person. Probably changed their minds since audios etc. came out.

It adds credence to his claim that he wanted to clear his name, not tarnish someone else's. And since it has clearly worked that surely is evidence in his favour.

Opinion | The biggest loser(s) of the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trialThe jury has final say. But I’m less interested in whether Amber Heard is a liar, and more interested in why so many people are invested in the idea that she might be. Why are they even news worthy?! Being someone whom has gone through abuse I would not want Amber H on my side!
