Popular Hollywood actress Amber Heard has told those who care to listen that she does not want to be crucified for her controversial trail with well-known actor Johnny Depp.
Recall that 60-year-old talented thespian (Johnny Depp) filed a lawsuit against Amber Heard for defamation following a 2018 article Amber wrote for the Washington Post.
In the heat of the court case, Johnny’s lawyers said the article accused him of being an abuser, despite the Pirates of the Caribbean star not being named.
The presiding judge later returned a verdict in Johnny’s favour and Amber’s insurance company was ordered to pay $1million (£795,000) to her ex-husband.

Amber Heard has now opened up on the dramatic interview where she revealed how the trail impacted her career.
“I just want to make movies and be appreciated as an actress. I don’t want to have to be crucified to be appreciated as one,” she said in a new interview.
The actress said one of the big things she had to learn following the defamation lawsuit was that she is “not in control of stories people create around me”.
She said she hopes to “appreciate [that] as a blessing further down the line and said she prefers not to have “stones thrown at me so much”.
