He's A Giver

Filed under: Inspiration > Johnny Depp

wenn187578__opt.jpg

Johnny Depp has donated $2 million to the British hospital that treated his daughter when she was sick last year with kidney failure.

Last week, Depp invited doctors and nurses from the hospital to the London premiere of Sweeney Todd.

And, back in November, Johnny spent four hours at the hospital telling bedtime stories to patients dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow after having his Pirates Of The Caribbean costume flown over from Los Angeles.

Depp's daughter mysteriously got E.coli poisoning last year. She's doing well now.

  60. JOHNNY IS D'BEST!!!!!!!!!!! says – reply to this
    60

    OF COURSE… JOHNNY IS THE BEST….EVER!!! A GEMINI ALL THE WAY. ALL OF HIS GIRL LOVERS LOOK LIKE FAIRY PRINCESSES. KATE MOSS AND VANESSA LOOK SO MUCH ALIKE, AS DOES WINONA RIDER. SMALL AND PETITE. I'D LOVE HOW THIS CELEBRITY KEEPS HIS LIFE INTACT. (UNLIKE SOME BRIT MESS WE KNOW… IT'S SO PATHETIC…)

    I really like Johnny Depp. I hope there were more celebs than him, who could use their money and celebrity status for the greater good, and less celebs such as Britney, Paris, or Lindsay, who the only thing they care about is showing their underpants (if they're wearing any of course).

    Am I the only one that got a warm fuzzy feeling about this blog? I think Johnny Depp is fantastic! now here is a great example of a hot commodity as a celeb doing whats right instead of leaving his children and the ones who are not even his in the dust! Kudos to you JD!

  74. Katie says – reply to this

    That's awesome. It sounds like he has his priorities straight. I bet he really made those kids happy when he came to read to them… I mean, I'd be happy if I got to see Jack Sparrow! :D

    He is so incredible. I wish nothing but the best for him and his lovely family. This world could use more people like him. If you don't have money, take time for others. If you have money, take time for others AND donate your wealth to help others in need. Thank you Johnny for being an inspiration! :-)

    That is just incredibly awesome! Many people, not just celebrities, should take a cue from this man! Sad that so few post regarding news like this, yet hundreds post on how awful someone looks or how idiotically someone behaves.

    Finally a celebrity that isn't pissing his/her money away on cars and bullshit.

    Hollywood could use some lessons from Johnny. I've always thought he was a sincere, genuine, classy dude and this story proves it. Thanks for the great energy shot, Perez!

    Johnny Depp is proably one of the only celebraties who donate money not to get more fame, but for a good reason. Hes a great guy. I LOVE HIM=D

    okay fine, johnny depp may be a nice guy, a good actor, whatever. why does he always have to look like shit? like a homeless guy or something? geez.

  84. hotel283 says – reply to this
    84

    this guy is what celebrity should be about, why the hell aren't we more interested in him? Shit, the guy can act - really good too!! Shame on all of us for not cherishing these good things in people more. Certainly Britney hasn't a shred of Johnny's character…and never will.

  85. Laury says – reply to this

    I'll never understand what Johnny sees in Vanessa. She's ugly and looks downright annoying.

    I don't know what to say…Imagining myself going down the hallway @ that hospital and then I get a face-to-face with Jack Sparrow himself! My knees would've buckled! Then again, I wish I was ill so he can read to me a bedtime story =D Kudos to Depp, once again you have shown what a man is made of!
