Anyone who knows me, knows that there are three things I love unconditionally: the Green Bay Packers, Diet Coke, and Johnny Depp. It is my love for #3 that inspires this week's(ish) "Boyfriend" (don't worry, I'll get to the other two at a later date), because, obviously, no Boyfriend list is complete without the unparalleled beauty and talent of Mr. Johnny Depp.
Ironically, it was one of the worst actors in history who was responsible for bringing us one of the best. That’s right, it was Nicolas Cage who encouraged Johnny to try acting, even going so far as to introduce him to his agent. This fateful introduction ultimately led to Johnny’s oft-forgotten film debut in A Nightmare on Elm Street, which was obviously just a springboard for what has become a long and illustrious career.
This Kentucky-born babe has had much critical and box-office success, despite apparently hating everything Hollywood represents – which is perhaps why he chooses to spend his off-time in France. (Not to mention the fact that his baby mama is French.) Sure, the proud papa of two is an exceptionally odd human being who smokes like a chimney and appears to have an antagonistic relationship with soap – which, in all fairness, seemed to be an issue even before he moved to France – but as long as we can love him from afar and never have to actually smell him, this Boyfriend will remain the star of, not only the box office, but also our fantasies, for many years to come.
