‘I’m Not A Heartthrob’

Mother Nature seemed somewhat confused last night, apparently under the impression that Finding Nemo was opening in Leicester Square and doing her best to flood the city and make the nice fishies feel at home. Either that, or she'd caught a screening of Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet's Finding Neverland and been moved to floods of tears at the touching story of JM Barrie's development of one of the world's greatest children's stories. But a little rain wasn't going to dampen anyone's spirits with Depp and Winslet in town, so the umbrella toting crowds waited patiently for all the stars to turn up. A rising crescendo of screams outside announced the arrival of someone really, really, really, ridiculously good-looking, in the winsome shape of Mr Johnny Depp. Despite a steady hail of undergarments and screams of "Johnny, we love you!", the soft spoken and slightly bemused looking Mr Depp said, "I wouldn't say I was ever a heartthrob, I never really saw myself as that kind of thing. I just got a weird job and made a few movies and some people liked them. But it's really nice to see that great support out there
