The Amber Heard VS. Johnny Depp trial was certainly something. Not an adventure per se, but still a wild experience all around.

Since the trial’s conclusion on June 1st, whereby Depp was awarded $15 million in various damages and Heard got $2 million, not much of significance has really happened, save for Depp's entrance into the TikTok realm where he said a thank you to his fans and supporters with a tribute video.

Until now. Amber Heard has spoken out for the first time since the trial in an NBC exclusive interview to air on NBC on June 14th and 15th. The interview was recorded on June 9th.

The case has been about how Depp was the victim of the abuse here. So it's not been 'men vs women' It's been people vs abusers..

And the obvious lack of fear of Johnny (during the trial, and even when they lived together, as she would provoke him nonstop, took embarrassing pictures of him and made them public, went to his hotel begging for a hug after the restraining order etc.), her own videos and recordings that show how she was the actual bully, how she tried to repeatedly get an aggressive reaction from him but he just hid away, and so on...

I don't think the media is trying to make the world sympathetic....I think they're milking the drama for every cent they can.

If you haven’t been following the trial, here’s a bit of a rundown of it, Amber Heard testimony reactions, and Johnny Depp testimony reactions for context.

On June 1st, a verdict was reached in the Heard Vs. Depp trial. Originally, Depp sued Heard for $50 million in damages, while Heard counter-sued for double that—$100 million.

In the end, Depp ended up winning $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages in his defamation suit. Amber ended up with $2 million in compensatory damages, and nothing in punitive damages.

And since then, the ether was in a bit of a relative silence. Folks were debating and speculating what will come next, with the aforementioned partial plot twist from Depp on TikTok.

Actually, she is perpetrating the stereotype of the woman who falsely accuses the man of wrongdoing. It damages the credibility of actual injured parties seeking to come forward as a result.

Amber Heard does not speak for me. The jury didn't set back women's rights. If any one did, she did with her blatant lies on the stand. She lied. I am not stupid. Nor were many others watching. Good thing there were camera's in the corner to catch the deception. Now she's grabbing for "her 15 minutes of fame" in the "Johnny Show" rather than let this issue pass as she told everyone she wanted. Go figure.

Even if I tried and partly succeeded in ruining the life of Depp, I shouldn't be held responsible for that. 🙃

But we now see Heard speaking out about the whole trial in an NBC exclusive interview. In the trailer, she explained that she doesn’t care about people’s thoughts or judgments about what happened in her own home behind closed doors—she presumes the average person wouldn’t know these things.

ADVERTISEMENT

However, she does not believe that all the hate surrounding her on social media is a fair representation of things.

“But even somebody who is sure I’m deserving of all this hate and vitriol, even if you think that I’m lying, you still couldn’t look me in the eye and tell me that you think on social media, there’s been a fair representation, you cannot tell me that you think that this has been fair?” said Heard in the interview.

It's abusing victims all over again. Decades ago behaviour like this was laughed at and men were berated for 'allowing' it. We have grown up since then and realise that men can be victims too and that women can be abusers too. Looks like news shows haven't caught up to the rest of society yet..

The interviewer, Savannah Guthrie, pointed out, on multiple occasions, that the jury did not believe her, and they thought Heard was lying.

The actress responded that she does not blame the jury for this. They couldn’t have possibly reached any other judgement. “How could they, after listening to three and a half weeks of testimony about how I was a non-credible person, not to believe a word that came out of my mouth?”

Nope they would not have because Ted was a man. Savannah Guthrie hasn't interviewed Johnny Dep to hear his side, right?

Depp lost the case in the UK against a newspaper. The newspaper wasn't the one making up lies. They had printed with having a source and had done so in good faith - they weren't to know it was fiction. Depp has won the important case against Heard herself which proves that the source material for those articles was false..

And while we only have the interview trailer for now, folks have been very active in voicing their thoughts and opinions on social media. They effectively dissected every word she said and turned it against her.

Reactions varied from pointing out how Heard called Kate Moss a “rando” to her explicitly saying that Depp is a better actor to folks asking the media to stop playing a PR game and trying to elicit sympathy for Heard. And the reactions didn’t stop there. But all in all, it was anything but positive towards her.

True, she had mentioned the possibility of an appeal but everything she says in public could well become part of that or any subsequent action she might try to take. She shoots herself in the foot every single time she speaks..

The smartest thing for her to do is walk the f#ck away and shut the f#ck up. But she won’t, because she’s a narcissist.

Many of the reactions were in the thousands and even tens of thousands of likes. So, you can imagine what’s going to happen once the full interview is aired today, and tomorrow.

When someone's ex comes to give evidence I always think this is more likely to be truthful. Who on earth would lie to stand up for an ex, I wouldn't.

The more she talks the more she buries herself. She said she wanted JD to just leave her alone. Then she should shut up, but nope she is going to appeal.

Actually, he did get a stage. I think he had interviews with Page Six, Vanity Fair, NY Times, etc. They honestly don't care. There is no decency in the news world anymore. If they think it will bring in viewers/readers they'll do it. And you can't blame them; they won't make money otherwise. The respectful papers are the first ones to go down so more and more journalists have to let go of their moral compass to stay alive.

When Depp lost the first trial most of his backers distanced themselves from him due to the cancel culture. Why should it be different for this woman?
