Yesterday, after the judge called for a morning break in the JOHNNY DEPP / AMBER HEARD defamation trial, a woman in the gallery yelled, “Johnny I love you! Our souls are connected!” Johnny waved to the woman, but then she held up her BABY, and said, “This baby is yours!” She was escorted from the courtroom. Two more things: KATE MOSS is going to testify by video link tomorrow, because a rumor came up earlier in the trial that Johnny once pushed her down a flight of stairs . . .And COURTNEY LOVE is walking back comments she made about the trial that kind of shaded Amber.
OZZY OSBOURNE crashed his ATV and almost died back in 2003 . . . some 19 years ago . . . and he’s STILL feeling the effects. In fact, he needs another neck surgery because of it. He says, “I can’t walk properly these days. I have physical therapy every morning. I am somewhat better, but nowhere near as much as I want to be to go back on the road.” After the accident, Ozzy had surgery to repair a broken collarbone, eight fractured ribs, and a damaged vertebrae in his neck. But then in 2019, he suffered a fall at his home that dislodged the metal rods and bolts surgeons had placed in his back and collarbone. So he had to go under the knife again.
KENNY CHESNEY was a guest on Joe Buck’s podcast, and there’s a clip of it on Twitter. Kenny’s on Facetime in the sports den of his house. Joe commented on the den, so Kenny waved the phone around to show it off. The shelves are lined with collectible memorabilia like NFL football helmets, framed celebrity photos, awards, trophies . . . plus some cool guitars. Kenny talked about how he got his love of sports from his dad. It was the one thing they always had in common and that’s how they connected.
