Johnny Depp refused to sell private jet to fix financial ruins

Call him Johnny DEBT from now on. Sorry. had to.  But it's wildly amusing to read how crazy out of control Depp's spending got and his equating paying his debts to selling his soul. The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star’s desperate bid to climb out of debt was revealed as part of his ongoing $25 million lawsuit against his former business managers The Management Group and its principal Joel Mandel. Depp has accused them of mismanaging his money — but Mandel and TMG have countersued, saying the actor was aware of his dire situation the entire time. In an email exchange from December 2009 that was just made public, Mandel warned the cash-strapped “Edward Scissorhands” actor to “take it easy on holiday spending” and told him they need to meet to “look realistically at income and expenses and work together on how to make sure that these are back in balance,” according to the Hollywood Reporter.Call him Johnny DEBT from now on.
