The End of Johnny Depp's Style As the actor gets older with his character
Today, Hollywood icon Johnny Depp turns 58. A lot of time has passed since her glory years, which took off in 2001 with Blow and ended in 2010 with Alice in Wonderland – his last truly iconic role. Before and after this golden phase, which includes the first films of the Pirates of the Caribbean saga, Once Upon a Time in Mexico, The Chocolate Factory and The Libertine, there were many other incredible films – and indeed Depp's absolute fame (who in 2012 was the highest paid actor in the world) had made him a kind of cultural icon who brought together in himself a lifestyle made literally of sex , drugs and rock 'n' roll with an aesthetic between the bohemian and the bad boy - a strange fusion of style and lifestyle that today could no longer occur.
Spiritual heirs to Johnny Depp's style today are rappers, whose stories abound on the edge such as that of A$AP Rocky arrested in Sweden, or those of the murders of young stars such as XXXTentacion and Pop Smoke and in whose music there are often references to an edgy lifestyle that is however excused and endured less and less. It's no coincidence that one of today's most celebrated hip-hop artists, Tyler, The Creator, doesn't drink or smoke and goes to sleep early in the evening while other great icons like Kanye West and Travis Scott are quiet family fathers with crazy outfits. Johnny's time is really over.
