During an interview with the media house Entertainment Tonight, Lily-Rose Depp spoke about her inspiration behind Jocelyn’s character. She said-
“We actually drew from a lot of other influences that are not pop stars, We thought a lot about Sharon Stone in ‘Basic Instinct’ and the Gene Tierney and Lauren Bacall… All of these women were very inspiring to me for the role.”
According to the reputed media outlet Variety, the first few episodes of the show were all about- “Revenge p**n photos of bodily fluids on Depp’s face, mast**bation with ice cubes, nightclub-owning scam artists and vile Hollywood sycophants populated the first two episodes of the already-controversial series,”
The Idol has been the talk of the tinsel town ever since its trailer was released. The appreciation of drama at the Cannes Film Festival made Sam Levinson teary-eyed. He addressed the audience and expressed that he is proud of his show. The show is slated to release on HBO on June 4, 2023.
Johnny Depp Is Very Much Like Lily-Rose Depp’s Girlfriend O70 Shake
The Idol actor is currently dating the American rapper O70 Shake. According to the rumors in the entertainment world, the romantic fling between Lily-Rose Depp and Danielle Balbuena, who is popularly known as O70 Shake has been approved by Johnny Depp. The Charlie And The Chocolate Factory actor even finds a lot of similarities between his and the rapper’s personality. A source close to the 59-year-old actor revealed to the Daily Mail that Johnny Depp has no issues with his daughter dating a girl and he is “no stranger to sexual fluidity.”
The source went on to add-
“Johnny was one of the first people to know about Danielle because Lily and he shares everything with each other. Johnny is no stranger to sexual fluidity and was married to an openly bisexual woman for years,” the insider said. “It didn’t work out, but Lily grew up knowing this and normalized it.”
The source even mentioned-
“Lily believes she is in love and there is nothing more than Johnny wants in this world than for her to love and be loved by someone who deserves her. He has not been the biggest fan of some of her ex-boyfriends, but there is a reason why Lily and these men did not work out.”
Lilly Ross Depp was previously romantically involved with Timothee Chalamet. He even starred alongside the Planetarium star in The King. The ex-couple separated in April 2020 due to their work-related commitment.
