Alice Cooper interview with NME
Who would you like to see play you?(a in possible biopic)
“Well you know, I told Johnny Depp that he would be great at it if he were just a little better looking (Laughs).”
What can we expect from your forthcoming new album?
“I tell ya, the really interesting thing is going to be the new [Hollywood] Vampires album, because most of it was written on the road. A lot of it is Johnny Depp’s writing and there’s a lot of venom in his lyrics because of all the crap that went on. Almost everything I read about Johnny Depp was absolutely untrue. You know, I’m touring with him and it says here in the paper: ‘Well, you [Depp] weigh 90 lbs and you’re a drug addict and you’re drinking and that you’re out of money’ and all this stuff. I’m on tour with him and I’ve never seen him look better in his lifetime, I’ve never heard him play better, he’s laughing all the time. Just the opposite of what you’re reading is what was going on. But on this album, he wrote a lot of the lyrics – and I got to sing them – so I’m the one delivering the venom. Being in a band is, I think, more expressive for him than doing movies. When you’re in rock ‘n’ roll, you can bring your personal life and problems right to the stage – and you can bring your anger to the stage. It’s hard rock, but there’s stuff you’re not going to expect.”

Thanks for posting Snoopy and Alice is absolutely right. Johnny looks happier, healthier and looking as if he's really enjoying life. It's like he's shrugged off all the trauma and hassles he's been going through and although we know it's not all over he's become much stronger.

I think him looking happier now might also have to do with a certain someone who has been traveling with him. Also, he seems to be living in London and France now. He was pictured arriving in Paris from a train out of London for the holidays and then he left Paris on a train back to London. He was pictured with the woman leaving the airport where his estate is in France going to Berlin. He is rarely seen around LA anymore. There was also news that he visited an estate twice that is for sale in the UK. Good for him to be able to enjoy his privacy.

Hollywood Vampires Reveal Current Line-Up, Announce 2019 U.S. Tour
Loudwire.Com
Chad Childers 4th March 2019
The Hollywood Vampires, complete with a few new musicians ready to sharpen their fangs, will be hitting the road in May.
The group's original founders -- Alice Cooper, Joe Perry and Johnny Depp -- remain, as does longtime Hollywood Vampires guitarist Tommy Henriksen. For this run, the band will be rounded out by veteran Alice Cooper drummer Glen Sobel, The Cult bassist Chris Wyse and Aerosmith musician Buck Johnson on keyboard and vocals.
The band's spring tour dates all are centered in the western part of the U.S., taking place May 10-18, starting in Las Vegas and wrapping in Indio, California. See the dates listed below.
Tickets for the Hollywood Vampires shows will go on sale this Friday (March 8) at 10AM local time. There will also be VIP ticketing options available starting March 5. Check the band's website for details.
The group takes its name from the famous Rainbow Bar & Grill on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, where in 1969 a number of name musicians established a local hang at the upstairs bar. In order to join the club, you had to outdrink the other members, revealed Alice Cooper. The stories became legend, and Cooper and Johnny Depp decided the spirit of the Hollywood Vampires should live on, minus the drinking. Adding in Joe Perry, they recorded an album that served as a tribute to the original music legends of the Rainbow set. The group is said to be working on a second album, expected this summer.

Thank you In-too-Depp for the pics. Great ones! His old hat looks to be somewhat repaired.
So, Johnny is back in LA. He sure does fly under the radar. Good for him!

Ha! Yes, Chocolat, emphasis on “somewhat repaired”, eh? At least it will be able to do what it’s supposed to do - keep the rain off his head
Thanks, ItD. Lovely photos!
