Johnny Depp is making news at the Cannes Film Festival, but not for the reasons he might have hoped. His new movie, Jeanne Du Barry, premiered on May 16th, but it was Depp’s appearance that stole the spotlight—specifically, his teeth.
The 59-year-old actor, known for his roles in *Pirates of the Caribbean* and *Sweeney Todd*, has kept a low profile since his 2022 legal victory over ex-wife Amber Heard. He has been spending time at his large estate in Somerset, England. However, he decided to attend the Cannes Film Festival for his film’s premiere.
Unfortunately, Depp’s teeth have become a major topic online, with fans expressing shock and disappointment. Some even compared his look to that of rock musician Ozzy Osbourne. Comments on social media have been harsh, with some fans saying they are “disgusted” by how Depp looks. It seems Depp’s appearance at Cannes is getting more attention than his movie.

Fans have been reacting strongly to Johnny Depp’s appearance on social media, especially his teeth. Some people are shocked and unhappy about how his teeth look in photos from the Cannes Film Festival.
One Twitter user wrote, “Johnny Depp’s teeth are literally ROTTING,” and shared a close-up picture of his teeth. Another person asked, “Why do I have to see close-up pics of Johnny Depp’s teeth against my will?” A third critic said, “Johnny Depp just looks like someone grabbed his teeth and painted them black.”
Many fans expressed their disappointment, with one saying, “Seeing that pic of Johnny Depp’s teeth on my timeline just ruined my mood. That’s enough Twitter for me.” Another joked, “Well, at least he’s committed to staying in character for his next pirate movie.” One person even commented, “This should be considered bacterial biological warfare,” while others speculated that his long-term smoking might be the cause, with one user writing, “Dude has been a tobacco smoker for his entire adult life so not surprising.”

Johnny Depp received a standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival, despite some criticism about his teeth. After the premiere of his French biographical drama, Depp was applauded for seven minutes. Reports say he was moved to tears by the response.
While some fans commented negatively on social media about his teeth, many others defended him. On an Instagram post from OK! Magazine, fans showed their support. One wrote, “Jeez, negative trolling—give the guy a break after all he’s been through.” Another said, “Still love Johnny Depp,” with a hand-praising emoji. Fans also praised Depp as a “wonderful talented actor” and a “great man, great father, and amazing actor,” reminding others that he’s been through a lot and deserves respect.
All of My Right Shoes Kept Going Missing – When I Finally Found Out Why, It Shook Me to My Core

All my right shoes kept disappearing, and I was at my wit’s end trying to figure out why. When I finally uncovered the truth, it was about something far deeper and more heartbreaking than just a missing shoe.
When I married Randy, I never imagined how much my life would change. His house was enormous, bigger than anything I had ever lived in.

It was the kind of place that felt like a mansion compared to my old apartment. But what made it feel like home wasn’t the size or the fancy furniture. It was Randy and Martha.
Martha was his six-year-old daughter, and she was the sweetest little girl. From the moment I met her, she started calling me “Mom.” Randy had been raising her alone since she was a toddler, and I admired how close they were.

Living with Randy’s family took some getting used to. His mother and sister lived with us, too. His mom, Evelyn, was the no-nonsense type. She was always busy with gardening, cooking, or knitting scarves no one seemed to wear. Randy’s sister, Tammy, was younger, still figuring out life, and spent most of her time on her phone.
At first, everything felt perfect. Everyone seemed happy with the arrangement, and I didn’t mind sharing the space. The house was so big, we could go hours without running into each other. But then, something odd started happening.

One morning, I got up early for my gym session. I was half-asleep when I went to grab my sneakers. I found one, but the other was missing.
“Where’s the right one?” I muttered, searching under the bed. Nothing. I checked the closet, the bathroom, and even the kitchen. Still nothing.

I ended up wearing an old pair of flip-flops to the gym that day. I thought I must’ve misplaced the shoe somehow, but it didn’t feel right. I always kept them together by the door.
The next day, it happened again. This time, it was my favorite pair of Birkenstocks. The left one was exactly where it should be, but the right was gone.

By the end of the week, it was a pattern. Every time I needed a pair of shoes, the left one was there, but the right one had vanished.
“Randy, have you seen my sneakers?” I asked one morning while he was sipping his coffee.
He looked up from his laptop and shrugged. “Nope. Did you check the closet?”

“Yes, and under the bed, and everywhere else.” I threw my hands in the air. “It’s like they’re disappearing. First my sneakers, then my Birkenstocks, and now my pumps. It’s ridiculous!”
He laughed. “Maybe the house is haunted.”
I rolled my eyes. “Very funny.”
I decided to ask Evelyn. If anyone had seen my shoes, it would have been her. She was always up early, cleaning or organizing something.

“Evelyn, have you seen my shoes? The right ones keep disappearing.”
She looked up from her knitting. “Your shoes? No, I haven’t seen them. Are you sure you didn’t leave them somewhere?”
“Absolutely not.”
She shook her head. “Maybe it’s Martha? Kids are sneaky.”
Martha? The thought hadn’t crossed my mind. She was always playing around, but I couldn’t imagine her hiding my shoes.

“Martha,” I said that evening as I tucked her into bed, “have you been playing with my shoes?”
She looked up at me with big, innocent eyes. “No, Mom. I didn’t touch them.”
“Are you sure?”
She nodded. “I promise.”
Her answer seemed genuine, so I let it go. But the next morning, when another right shoe disappeared, I knew something wasn’t right.

One afternoon, while searching for an old film camera in the pantry, I stumbled on something odd. Behind a stack of boxes was a dusty suitcase, half-open.
“What’s this?” I said to myself, pulling it out.
When I opened it, my heart dropped. Inside were all my missing shoes, neatly stacked.
“What in the world…” I whispered, staring at the bizarre collection.

My confusion turned to suspicion. The suitcase wasn’t mine, but I recognized it. It belonged to Evelyn.
I carried it to the living room, my chest tight with frustration and disbelief. Evelyn was sitting in her usual chair, sipping tea.
“Evelyn,” I said, holding up the suitcase, “can you explain this?”
Her brow furrowed. “Explain what?”

I opened the suitcase, showing her the shoes. “These. Why are my shoes in your suitcase?”
She stared at the shoes, then back at me, her face a mixture of confusion and defensiveness. “I have no idea. I’ve never seen them before.”
“How could you not know? It’s your suitcase!”
Evelyn set her tea down and crossed her arms. “I’m telling you the truth. I didn’t do this.”

Her tone was firm, but I didn’t know what to believe.
Frustrated and exhausted, I knew there was no more guessing. I needed answers. That evening, I called everyone into the living room. The suitcase of shoes sat in the center of the coffee table like a piece of evidence at a crime scene.
Randy arrived first, looking confused. “What’s this about?” he asked, gesturing to the suitcase.

“I found my missing shoes,” I said firmly. “And I want to know who’s responsible.”
Evelyn walked in next, her expression already defensive. Tammy followed with earbuds in, scrolling on her phone. Martha trailed behind them, clutching her stuffed bunny.
I cleared my throat, trying to steady my voice. “I’ve been losing my right shoes for weeks. This morning, I found all of them hidden in Evelyn’s suitcase in the pantry.”

Evelyn threw her hands up. “And I already told you, I don’t know how they got there! I don’t even go in the pantry except to grab flour.”
“Then who?” I asked, scanning the room. My voice wavered slightly, and I hated how desperate I sounded. “Someone in this house has been messing with me, and I need to know why.”

Randy stepped forward, his brow furrowed. “Let’s not jump to conclusions,” he said, his tone calm but firm. “We’ll figure this out.”
Tammy looked up from her phone, finally catching on. “Wait, are you accusing us of stealing your shoes? That’s crazy.”
“I’m not accusing anyone,” I shot back. “I just need the truth.”

The room went silent. The weight of the unspoken filled the air. Then, just as I was about to speak again, a small voice broke through the tension.
“It was me.”
I turned toward Martha, stunned. She stood near the doorway, tears streaming down her face, clutching her stuffed bunny tighter.
“What?” I whispered.

“I’m sorry,” she said, her voice trembling. “I took them. I didn’t mean to make you upset. Please don’t be mad.”
I blinked, trying to process her words. “You… took my shoes? Why, Martha?”
She looked down at the floor, twisting the bunny’s ear in her tiny hands. “I thought… if you didn’t have shoes, you couldn’t leave. You’d have to stay with me.”
Her words hit me like a punch to the gut.

“Oh, honey…” Randy knelt beside her, his voice soft and gentle. “Why would you think she’d leave?”
Martha looked up at him, her face crumpling with fresh tears. “Because Mommy left. She didn’t say goodbye. She just… went away.”
The room grew still. Randy’s face was pale, his eyes glistening. Evelyn wiped at her own eyes with a tissue.
Martha turned to me, her little voice breaking. “I don’t want you to leave, too.”

I dropped to my knees in front of her, my chest aching. “Sweetheart,” I whispered, pulling her into my arms. “I’m not going anywhere. I promise you.”
She buried her face in my shoulder, sobbing quietly.
For a long moment, no one spoke. The weight of Martha’s pain hung heavy in the air.

“I’m so sorry, Martha,” I murmured. “I didn’t know you were feeling this way. But you don’t have to be scared. I love you, and I’m staying right here.”
Tammy cleared her throat. “Jeez, Martha, you could’ve just said something.”
Evelyn gave her a sharp look. “Tammy!”
“What?” Tammy muttered, looking embarrassed.

Randy stood and placed a hand on my shoulder. “Thank you,” he said softly, his voice filled with emotion.
Martha pulled back, her tears slowing. “You’re not mad?” she asked, her voice small.
“Not at all,” I said, wiping her cheeks. “I’m just glad you told me. You don’t have to hide anything from me, okay?”
She nodded, sniffling.

As I tucked her into bed that night, I held her hand and promised her again: “I’m here, Martha. And I’m not going anywhere.”
Her small fingers gripped mine tightly. “I love you, Mom.”
“I love you, too.”

As the house settled into its usual quiet, I sat on the edge of my bed, holding one of my reunited shoes. I turned it over in my hands, still amazed at how something so small had uncovered something so big.
I thought back to all the times I’d been frustrated, searching for shoes and feeling confused. In hindsight, it seemed so trivial. But for Martha, it had been her way of trying to protect herself from losing someone she loved.

The lesson wasn’t lost on me. Love requires patience and understanding, especially in a blended family. It’s about paying attention to what isn’t said and listening with more than your ears.
