One of the most anticipated shows this year is undoubtedly HBO’s The Idol with casts including Lily-Rose Depp, Jennie Kim, Abel Tesfaye (The Weekend), etc. It recently premiered at the Cannes Film Festival where Depp received a 5-minute standing ovation.

However, many have also criticized the show for showing too much nudity, intimate scenes, and just a  very grim portrayal of the music industry in general. The story revolves around a pop star named Jocelyn who is determined to re-vamp her music career, and there are a lot of s*x scenes involved in the show.

Depp, who plays the role of Jocelyn, gave some details about the many intimate scenes recently at a Cannes interview. She mostly had nice things to say about the behind-the-scenes situation of the scenes.
