Maybe I am just cynical, but I automatically assume that any actor that has been a Hollywood fixture for nearly three decades and has millions of dollars in several bank accounts and chooses to live abroad because of a philosophical difference of opinion with the nation he was born in, is probably a self absorbed piece of dirt who has no concern for the little people. No concern for those who are truly in need. Of course, then there is Johnny Depp. I can honestly say that I have never really frowned upon anything Mr. Depp has done, even though he is a little eccentric. But if part of that eccentricity is that you dress up as one of your most famous characters and then spend hours at a Childrens hospital(unannounced) entertaining and signing autographs for sick and dying children... Well then, Jack. You must be a pretty cool dude.
Johnny Depp thrilled sick children at a London hospital on Wednesday - by dropping in unannounced, dressed as a pirate.
The actor has been in the U.K. capital this week to promote new movie Public Enemies, and took time out from his busy schedule to visit Great Ormond Street Hospital to cheer up young patients.
Dressed as his Pirates Of The Caribbean character Captain Jack Sparrow, he visited several wards - including the one his daughter Lily-Rose stayed in when she was treated for kidney failure in 2007.
A source tells WENN, “Johnny was so friendly with all the children on the ward and they absolutely loved his pirate outfit.
“He spoke to lots of the youngsters and staff - and made their day by posing for pictures with them all.”
The generous star has previously donated $1.5 million (£1 million) to the hospital to thank them for looking after his 10-year-old daughter during her health scare.
