These are photos of Johnny Depp promoting Transcendence in Bejing yesterday. God, he looks good. No scarves. The dark hair is back. He’s into this press tour. Johnny smiled, kissed some children and showed off his tattoos for the curious journos. Mr. Depp wants us to think of him as an actor again. His team is working some serious game to make us remember the old Johnny. Is it working?
Try as Johnny might, the subject of his engagement to Amber Heard came up during this press conference. They’ve been engaged for over two months and threw a celeb-filled party to celebrate. Johnny’s been wearing a mangagement ring. Questions will be asked. Johnny finally verbally confirmed what we already knew. He is engaged for the 459th 5th time. This time it’s different. Because Johnny is wearing a “chick ring.” His words! This is rather charming:
Depp-initely engaged! Johnny Depp isn’t one for explicit, direct public statements about his private life — so when the Lone Ranger star, 50, “opened up” about his top-secret engagement to Amber Heard in Beijing on Monday March 31, it was typically quirky.
The Associated Press reports that Depp was asked whether he was, in fact, engaged. “The fact that I’m wearing a chick’s ring on my finger is probably a dead giveaway. Not very subtle,” Depp replied. The AP explains that the Pirates of the Caribbean actor was wearing a ring featuring a “single diamond on a band around his ring finger. And indeed, it really is a “chick’s ring,” one source tells Us Weekly: The engagement ring Depp gave Heard, 27, was “too big for her, so he started wearing it,” explains the source.
Us confirmed back in mid-January that Depp had proposed to his Rum Diaries costar Heard after about a year and a half of dating. Promoting new film Transcendence in China Monday, Depp also fielded a question about any potential wedding plans. “I think that I would be better at making women’s shoes than I would be at wedding planning, I can’t plan anything,” the 21 Jump Street alum reasoned. “I’m really bad at that stuff.”
As previously revealed, the future spouses celebrated their impending nuptials at an engagement party held inside The Carondelet House in L.A. March 14 with pals like Marilyn Manson, Steven Tyler and Mandy Moore in attendance.
It will be the first marriage for Heard and the second for Depp, who was married to Lori Anne Allison for two brief years in the mid-80s. He and French actress/singer Vanessa Paradis were in a relationship for 14 years before announcing their split in June 2012. They share kids Lily-Rose, 14, and Jack, 11.

Hmm. We could take Johnny at his “quirky” word and believe that he bought Amber a ring that didn’t fit, so he decided to wear it and buy her another one. Hasn’t he ever heard of resizing a ring? He didn’t buy one that was too small if he can wear it. The subtext here is that Johnny bought Amber a ring, and she wasn’t impressed. So daddy went and bought one with a much bigger stone. I could be wrong, but we posted photos of both Johnny and Amber’s engagement rings here. Those are completely different rings — both in style and size. You be the judge.

I’m confused..Why not get it resized.
It seems more like Amber didn’t like the first ring. and it stone looks much smaller than the new one.
Everyone is assuming here that he was not being completely sarcastic to avoid answering the question directly. Are you engaged? Yes. I’d assume that he didn’t say the real reason he is wearing a woman’s ring. Perhaps it was his grandmother’s and the new girl didn’t like it, or perhaps he liked it (he has never shied away from femininity) so he kept it. Maybe she is wearing the big rock for now, but (like most women) won’t wear that huge thing day in and day out, and she will wear the smaller more attractive ring that he is sporting daily. The assumption that Johnny Depp would tell a nosey reporter the actual reason he is sporting a woman’s ring when he has been notoriously private about his life is ridiculous. He dodged a question and he doesn’t care what the people think. He has the woman he wants, the life we all would love, the family, the career… who gives a monkey’s ass why he is wearing a woman’s ring and she is wearing a bigger diamond? When is the next movie coming out?
lol, true
God, hipster love never dies!!
If you don’t even know what size ring to buy for your girlfriend than you should not be getting engaged!
Plus did she get a whole different ring? Why didn’t they just get that one sized? Was it not enough carats? If she said it wasn’t big enough I should hope that would serve as a red flag for Johnny but I fear he has gone off the deep end, 🙁
My engagement ring was too big when my husband bought it! I got it resized though. Kind of silly to say they shouldn’t be getting engaged if the ring size is unknown. haha Everything else, I agree with. 🙂
I don’t even know what is my own size ring!! don’t exaggerate
From my experiences surrounding engagement it’s usually a planned out affair and the guy goes through planning it and gets the information he needs before he makes a purchase. Anyone I know who has gotten engaged had a ring that fit because their guy found out their ring size. My husband had to find out my ring size because my engagement ring had an infinity band so it’s harder to resize. So I don’t feel I am exaggerating, that’s just how I feel based off my experiences.
My god she is going to ( I think she has already started) suck the creativity,life,decency,dignity out of this man.
No fool like an old fool. Don’t blame Amber!
Nah,I wasnt blaming her.Amber is a hustler and chica gotta work her “ways”,but Im still surprised at Johnny.I always knew he wasnt too cerebral,but he seems to have lost it completely..
+1
It’s so unappealing how he talks like Kstew. And I like Kstew more than most here. What is charming, if a little immature, on a 23 year old woman is just exhausting and sad on a 50 year old man.
My thoughts exactly. He probably thinks he sounds like Keith Richards.
+1
I hate that I can spot his brown dye job a mile away, it makes me sad. Brunette guys are fckd when the greys come in.
He looks more like the old johnny in these photo`s, the hot, sexy Johnny that didn`t dress like a homeless guy drowning in scarves.For a while there I was worrried that that fame vampire, Amber, had sucked the life out of him.
The ring didn’t fit Amber because the stone was too small for her. Resizing the band wouldn’t fix the problem that she believed she needed a bigger rock.
Exactly. She took one look at that little nugget and said “do over.”
He really looks good. I would even say amazing. It’s probably the lack of much-younger-midlife-crisis-fiancee doing wonders.
Everytime i see him i just want to push him in the shower and give him a good scrub down.
He always looks greasy and unkempt. Has he always been this way??
Why is the one sleeve rolled all the way up? Does he pedal his bike with his arms?
Looks better on him than on her really.
Their couple name is DERP
Good one!
OMIGOD please yes!!! PERFECT!
He said it was the wrong size for her, which is only a half lie as he was probably talking about the diamant and we all think he meant the ring size.
The fact that he marries a young vapid girly girl and has to give her big diamonds makes him unappealing to me. Now he´s in Hugh Hefner territory.
She destroyed his credibility as a human being
Sad
I’m turned off by the whole “I’m wearing a chick’s ring” statement. Why wear it unless you want to? If you enjoy wearing a “chick’s ring”, then just wear it proud. IDK, it just sounds like he’s a little bit embarrassed, so I don’t know why he’s doing it. Johnny, if it makes you feel better, they do sell “men’s rings”.
It’s all so… Gauche
I’m sorry but he looks and sounds like an idiot. And I think he’s wearing a chick’s leather jacket, too. And what are those jeans?! He’s hurting me.
Lol. That zipper on the jacket is holding on for dear life.
Yeah… The spell for me has been broken forever. He’s no longer eccentric/cool – he’s just another dumbass.
Just posting to tell you that I love reading your comments. Girl, come sit by me. 😀
Thank you! I like yours and your name, too. I would love to sit by you!
I completely and utterly agree with you @GoodNamesAllTaken. It is so sad what he has become. I used to adore him. Not any more :(.
So it wasn’t that he didn’t ever want to get married again, he just didn’t want to marry Vanessa. Check. He’s with a much younger chick so he’s suddenly looking good again. Check. The ring wasn’t good enough so she got a much bigger one. Check. Is this Hollywood’s version of a middle aged suburban dad divorcing and going out and buying a motorcycle?
Ohhh, this isn’t going to end well. I doubt they’ll marry but if they do it won’t be for long.
Doubt it was him, that didn’t want it must have been Vanessa. Depp has been engaged to every girlfriend apart from her. This is his modus operandi.
Oh, Lord–this has been rehashed on almost every Depp/Heard post. Vanessa didn’t want to get married—she did wear a ‘love’ ring, on her engagement finger–but she was VERY vocal about not needing ‘a piece of paper to show commitment’ (her words). Johnny probably would’ve married her, if she had wanted it.

Did he borrow simon cowells mom jeans?
YES! Why would anyone even own those?
Either he has really small fingers or she has man hands. How could he be that far off in the sizing that it fits him now?
That’s exactly what I came to say, Jen. If, indeed, she refused the smaller-stoned ring for a bigger one, a man less dickish might have reconsidered an engagement, never mind a wedding…. I know that money is no problem for him to have bought the bigger rock, but it still looks tacky and fake, and is remarkably similar to the ring one of my kindergarten pupils won at the local carnival on Saturday….
Well, the mangagement ring does go well with the mom jeans…
Those jeans are ridiculous. Why is he pulling them so high up? He really does look like a 50 year old dad trying to be cool these days. Sigh. I used to love him when I was little.
Those jeans… tragic.
Enough with the corny choker necklaces and the contrived “I’ve been in the studio painting all day” look. Mr. Depp (if you are indeed Mr. Depp) please refer to Mr. Porter’s site and pick a new look. ASAP.

Has anyone considered he may be
Into crossdressing and bought the
Ring for himself. And he looks wasted here
Like hes neen hitting the drugs hard….
never gotten his appeal, EVER! and these pics just reinforce my opinion
I’m with you!
Oh dear.His style is stuck in a time warp, it’s like the 90s. Problem is what looks cool in those old photos doesn’t work for him no more because he has a different body now. He is so short and the extra weight makes him look stocky. The jeans are just bizarre and the jacket doesn’t even fit
I’ve seen his pictures from China and he looked great, specially when he wore clothes of his own size. He’s still got it! that’s why he can have any woman he wants, including Amber Heard
I don’t know about the ring. I do remember the comments that Amber’s ring needed a resize because it looked too big for her fingers, but who knows why he chose to buy another and bigger ring to her, instead of resize the ring? it’s not like he can’t buy 2 or 5 engagement rings to her if he wants to anyway.
I agree with the other getting a ring resize is such a simple and easy fix I’ve done it many tines on ring because I have small fingers.
The only reason not to do that is if someone was unhappy about the ring ie Amber wanted a bigger diamond.
SMH…I’ve tried to get into midlife crisis Johnny but I simply can’t.
He sounds insufferable now and all the cool offbeatness is gone. He doesn’t even stir the lady regions anymore. #SadDayIndeed
He is so gross now!! Ew and go away Johnny! Also what is he wearing and why is he standing that way in the first pic! He looks half woman! So unnattractive, awkward and just gross!
And I used to like Johnny. What a tool!
This whole thing is tacky and vomit worthy. I really hope it’s not true that he bought her a whole new bigger ring if it was just that it didn’t fit. They will become more lame than Justin Bieber and Cheryl Cole combined if that is the case. I hope his kids are keeping an eye on their inheritance.
