The Chicago Sun-Times reports that Johnny Depp visited legendary jazz club the Green Mill on Tuesday evening (May 20th): “Johnny Depp was spotted wearing an Irish cap, jeans with a bandanna sticking out a back pocket and a white collared shirt with horizontal pale blue stripes while soaking up some jazz in a front booth at the Green Mill Tuesday night. ” Yup, that sounds like Johnny . . . . Less happy news, though, is the word of violence in the neighborhood, as the Sun-Times continues: “Close call? Depp, in town filming gangster flick PUBLIC ENEMIES, in which he plays John Dillinger, slipped out a side door around 2 a.m.– which was a stone’s throw from a drive-by shooting 30 minutes later.” Yikes! Be careful out there . . . .
In the same issue of the Sun-Times, Bill Zwecker reports, “Johnny Depp shopped up a storm Wednesday at Madison & Friends, the trendy children’s clothing boutique on Oak Street. During a two-hour spending spree, Depp dropped big bucks on jeans, shirts, outerwear and shoes for his kids–one of the biggest sales for shop owner David Shelist in the store’s 12-year history.” How sweet . . . and what a refreshing way for an A-list actor to spend his free time, shopping for his kids. Thanks to Sleepy and Emma for the news; you can read more (including a link to the Madison & Friends website) on the Pit. –Part-Time Poet
