Depp's on a roll
JOHNNY Depp frequently refers to his life and career as "the ride". Like most Hollywood actors, his particular journey has been something of a rollercoaster ride and right now he couldn't be higher off the ground.Depp admits that even his mother, Betty Sue, was impressed when he landed on the cover of Newsweek recently and his star power drew comparisons between him and Tom Cruise.
"He's a pretty buff young man, Tom Cruise," Depp says in Los Angeles, grinning from under a grey hat. "I haven't physically grown so I don't think I'm any bigger than him."
