Johnny Depp birthday: Actor get over 10 million followers within 24 hours of joining TikTok

The amount of love Johnny Depp has received as ‘Captain jack Sparrow’, remains unmatched! Even though the makers of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ decided to not have Depp on the project anymore, he is still loved most for his Pirates character.

There can be none who can do what Depp did as the crack head Captain. His popularity among his fans has never gone down. But it has increased drastically after the trial for the defamation suit that he filed against his ex-wife Amber Heard was televised last month, with the jurors pronouncing the verdict in Depp’s favour.

Throughout all the days that the trial was televised, a pool of people came out in support of Johnny Depp and stood outside the Courthouse in Virginia, holding postcards and placards in favourite of Depp.

His craze among fans across the globe doubled since Johnny Depp won the defamation suit.

He wanted to post a video, thanking all his fans and supporters who came out in huge numbers to support him during the testing times.

The clip which is addressed to his 'most treasured, loyal and unwavering supporters', was posted on Tuesday. Within mere 24 hours, the debut TikTok post of Johnny Depp got 24.3 million views and 10.7 million followers!

We have walked the same road together. We did the right thing together, all because you cared. And now, we will all move forward together. You are, as always, my employers and once again I am whittled down to no way to say thank you, other than just by saying thank you. So, thank you. My love & respect, JD.”
