Amber Heard alleges Johnny Depp was violent when jealous

Published

on

Hollywood actor Amber Heard has testified again in the defamation case brought by her ex-husband Johnny Depp claiming that he became violent when jealous

Heard took to the stand describing Depp’s distress when he found out that his then-wife had kissed actor James Franco during a movie scene in “The Adderall Diaries”.

The Aquaman star says Depp called her a “slut” and interrogated her on what Franco “had done” to her body.

Heard alleges that Depp smelled like “weed” and alcohol at the time.

She says this prompted her to move between seats on the private plane but alleges that Depp continued to torment her, throwing ice cubes and utensils at her and kicking her in the back.

The actress claims that security and staff did nothing in response and she felt “embarrassed that he could kick” her “to the ground in front of people”.

Heard also accused Depp of becoming violent after a supposed flirtation between Heard with someone at the Met Gala in New York.

In their hotel room afterwards, Heard alleges that Heard shoved her and then broke her nose.

Depp denies ever hitting Heard and is arguing that it is Heard who was the abuser during their relationship.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star is suing Heard for $50 million saying her op-ed piece on abuse defamed him.

Heard has counter-sued for $100 million, claiming that Depp smeared her reputation by calling her a liar.

Over the past several months, Washington D.C. has been under pressure to ban the popular Chinese-owned social media app.

Lawmakers and security experts have long raised concerns that the Chinese government could tap TikTok’s trove of personal data about millions of U.S. users.

TikTok’s CEO said the bill is disappointing and reiterated that the company has committed to challenge it.

Published

on

Threads, the social media platform owned by Meta, is gaining traction with a surge in daily active users, outpacing X in the U.S.

 

With Threads averaging 28 million daily active users compared to X’s 22 million, Meta’s ambitions to reach a billion users seem within reach despite a slowdown in growth. While X still boasts 550 million monthly active users globally, Threads’ focus on user experience and avoidance of real-time and political content could position it as a formidable competitor moving forward.
